Election

Voters often complain that politicians make promises but do not give details. Trump has said he will get the economy going and here is how. He will max out the US production of fossil fuels to make the country energy independent and lower the cost of energy which will lead to lower transportation cost which will lower the cost of most goods. It will lower the cost of utilities including heating and electricity. He will reduce regulations and place import taxes on Chinese goods. He will lower the corporate tax rate from 21% to 15% on companies that manufacture goods in the USA. All of these things will encourage the reshoring of industry which means shorter supply lines which means lower cost. Trump has said he will secure the border and he will do that the same way he did before. He will demand that Mexico close its border with Guatemala by threatening to tax their imports. He will renew the remain in Mexico policy which means that migrants wait in Mexico while their status is confirmed. He will stop catch and release and build the wall. These are the two top issues in the election.
