Mr. Liveris, who Trump has appointed to chair his American Manufacturing Council, announced that Dow soon will create a new research and development center in Michigan that will provide two hundred jobs. He made it crystal clear that the decision to build it in the US when it could have been located anywhere in the world was directly attributable to the industry friendly policies of our incoming president. In his speech Liveris <a href=\"http:\/\/www.detroitnews.com\/story\/news\/politics\/2016\/12\/09\/trump-prepares-address-grand-rapids-rally\/95223894\/\">used an expression<\/a> that should be adopted and promoted by the Trump Administration:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe could have waited,\u201d Liveris said. \u201cWe could have put it anywhere in the world. &#8230; We\u2019re going to use American hard work and American dreams and we\u2019re going to fight for the Dow Company in the U.S.A.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re paving the way through your administration your policies to make it easier to do business in this country,\u201d Liveris told Trump. \u201cNot a red tape country, but a red carpet country for American business. That\u2019s what we have to do.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I don\u2019t know about you but that particular phraseology just lit up in my mind, eliciting an involuntary, \u201cHell yeah!\u201d My desire for an America that is a red carpet country rather than a red tape country was my primary motivation for supporting Donald Trump; I just never thought to voice it quite that way in all my pre-election writings on his behalf. If the Trump Administration wants a catchphrase for its economic plan, they could do a lot worse than The Red Carpet. It\u2019s every bit as catchy as the New Deal and a lot more self-explanatory.<\/p>\n<p>Crossposted at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.americanthinker.com\/blog\/2016\/12\/not_a_red_tape_country_but_a_red_carpet_country.html\">American Thinker<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Donald Trump\u2019s recent victory tour through Michigan, one of the speakers was a powerful CEO &hellip; <a title=\"Not a \u2018red tape\u2019 country but a \u2018red carpet\u2019 country&#8230;\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=69349\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Not a \u2018red tape\u2019 country but a \u2018red carpet\u2019 country&#8230;<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":622,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69349","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69349","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/622"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=69349"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69349\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=69349"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=69349"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=69349"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
