Will: Trump's Carrier deal is the opposite of conservatism

So, this is the new conservatism’s recipe for restored greatness: Political coercion shall supplant economic calculation in shaping decisions by companies in what is called, with diminishing accuracy, the private sector. This will be done partly as conservatism’s challenge to liberalism’s supremacy in the victimhood sweepstakes, telling aggrieved groups that they are helpless victims of vast, impersonal forces, against which they can be protected only by government interventions.?
Responding to political threats larded with the money of other people, Carrier has somewhat modified its planned transfers of some manufacturing to Mexico. This represents the dawn of bipartisanship: The Republican Party now shares one of progressivism’s defining aspirations — government industrial policy, with the political class picking winners and losers within, and between, economic sectors. This always involves the essence of socialism — capital allocation, whereby government overrides market signals about the efficient allocation of scarce resources. Therefore it inevitably subtracts from economic vitality and job creation.

George Will and a want...the regret over only one downvote to give.
George Will has become a bitter old man and represents the curmudgeon wing of the right side. His civil and country club, yet arrogant demeanor is off putting.

George Will is conflating conservatism with pure free trade just to take a dig at Trump. Very sad
He doesn't understand that it's sucks like him that helped Trump get elected. The establishment is done George!

Damn the "moderate" a want is still melting.
You almost need to reevaluate your life at this point.

The Governor of Illinois offered incentives to Carrier that are similar to the incentives that Greenville, Tuscaloosa and the Golden Triangle use to lure BMW, Mercedes and A shite ton of Industry to their municipalities while Trump shared his (fiscally conservative) vision for making America more business friendly.
Carrier must invest over $16M of its new money into the local economy and save at least 1100 good paying jobs there to get the incentives over 10 years.
What Trump is doing is saving America from the lunatic Left and high-brow dumbfuqs like George Will.
George Will can GFH.

George Will would have Republicans lose every election for the sake of holier than thou principles.
Unfortunately George the rest of us aren't willing to sacrifice the country to leftists for the sake of preserving your idea of the Republican Party.
He's a cuck and needs to be retired to pasture along with his condescending voice.

George Will is the political equivalent of a fence post. He ain't moving...he can't move...he's in the rear view mirror of a changed world.

Good! TRUMP'S not a conservative. Neocon Cucks like Will have given conservatism a bad name.

George Will is such a douche. At least Bill Kristol is good natured about how Trump has humiliated him and proved him 100% wrong countless times over the past 19 months and is willing to support our new God Emperor.
Will can DIAF.

If this is true then you should be elated. I'll expect some praise from you for Trump in the near future if these "leftist" moves continue.
