I hate this 'confidence' bullshit, businesses expand when there are customers - customers give businesses confidence, not the government. And QE under Obama stopped many quarters ago, you are talking nonsense sir.
I asked you what exactly did Trump do for this 'construction boom', did infrastructure week finally go through?
Business confidence is a major consideration for business decisions. We see examples of this when a business moves from a high tax, high regulatory state such as California to more business friendly states such as Washington, Utah, New Mexico, and Texas. Although California has inherent advantages such as a large population base and direct overseas shipping, many businesses weigh the overall costs of doing business and in many recent cases have elected to expand in other states. Some maritime companies have gone as far as bypassing California ports completely when shipping from Asia to states such as Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. It is cheaper to pay Panama Canal fees, the extra fuel expense for thousands of extra miles travelled, and the personal and equipment utilization costs for all the extra days travelled than to ship directly to California because of it's port fees and regulatory practices.
In my own personal situation, I am relocating my businesses from Washington State to South Dakota for it's very friendly tax and regulatory environment.
Business confidence is critical to a healthy economy and this fact is usually only understood by business owners and knowledgeable investors.
Trump's pro business promises and the partial, so far, delivery of these promises has reduced the risk of doing business and has encouraged business expansion. This in turn increases the demand for goods and services, including the need for employees, and can become a virtuous economic cycle.
As you point out almost continually, Trump is not perfect. However, when it comes to our nation's economy, he is delivering in spades through creating pro-business policies.
