Should conservitards receive the benefits they've been railing against so vehemently?

 Provide a link to the   8 million undocumented people working in this country who pay taxes.

PJ already provided detailed information in this thread. And nobody follows your orders 

This is an interesting article on the impact of the Inflation Reduction Act on rural and conservative parts of the US.

Inflation Reduction Act sparked a manufacturing & clean energy boom (cnbc.com)

Don't annoy stupid Tom with facts!!

The Manufacturing Index is at 46.  Anything under 50 is considered a contraction.  How is that for stats. 

It tells me you didn't bother to read the article.

A letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson from Republican Congressmen, warning him that repealing the IRA tax credits would be harmful.

FINAL Credits Letter 2024.08.06.pdf (house.gov)

A quote from the letter:

"We hear from industry and our constituents who fear the energy tax regime will 
once again be turned on its head due to Republican repeal efforts. Prematurely repealing energy 
tax credits, particularly those which were used to justify investments that already broke ground, 
would undermine private investments and stop development that is already ongoing. "

There's a clue in that quote as to why your Manufacturing Index stat isn't relevant.

Kevin didn't accept Trump's tax decrease, apparently.

max shows a letter signed by less than 10% of the Republicans in the House with no facts vs a govt stat that shows maunfacturing is declining

Stupid Tom believes what he wants.

I guess you haven't figured out the clue or read the article, so I will spoon-feed it to you, from the quote I posted:

"justify investments that already broke ground, would undermine private investments and stop development that is already ongoing. "

What is the ISM Manufacturing Index?

"The ISM manufacturing index or purchasing managers' index is considered a key indicator of the state of the U.S. economy."

If a manufacturing development has just recently broken ground, would that manufacturing plant have a purchasing manager on staff at the empty lot?

From the article:

First bullet point, so you didn't have to read past this:

"Tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act have led to a boom in new manufacturing projects in the U.S."

"Actual manufacturing investment has totaled $89 billion, an increase of 305% compared to the two years prior to the IRA, according to MIT and Rhodium."

"Actual manufacturing investment....."

Maybe you should read the article, it's about the amount of money that has been invested in building manufacturing facilities because of the tax credits in the IRA. The IRA was passed in August 2022, I believe the tax credits didn't start until 2023 and some of them until 2024, do you really think there would be $89 billion of factories built and operating today?

The article isn't about what you thought it was about, but being MAGA you can't have your worldview shaken up outside your comfy echo chamber, so don't bother reading anything that might offend you.

Cheers!
