More MAGA...

Ikea is closing it's only US production facility to move it to Europe..

https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/16/busin...ing/index.html


Ikea is shutting down its only furniture factory in the United States.

"We made every effort to improve and maintain the competitiveness of this plant, but unfortunately the right cost conditions are not in place to continue production in Danville," site manager Bert Eades said in a statement.

In justifying its decision, Ikea pointed to raw material prices, which it said are higher in the United States than Europe. Ikea operates plants in European countries including Poland, Russia and Sweden.

That sucks they're the top most innovative furniture & home living companies in the world.

This is one of their new robotic pieces of furniture that changes shape for the most productive use of space and storage.

One is called Ori , the other is called Rognan

Trying to break even isn't greed, it's survival.

As much as you want America to be a socialist country, corporations are in business to make a profit so they can pay employees and survive as an entity.

Under Trump & his Trump tarrif taxes America has ceased being the land of profitability for most corporations. The economists say the recession starts this year or Q1 of 2020.

Break even.

IKEA management has always gone a lengthy distance to pay minimum tax.

IKEA’s Founder Paid Tax for the First Time in 42 Years

Quote:
In 2015, after returning from a 40 years-long Swiss tax exile, IKEA’s founder and the 11th richest person in the world, Ingvar Kamprad, paid Swedish tax for the first time. In 2014, Kamprad declared income of €1.9 million in Sweden. As a result, he was subject to Swedish personal income tax amounting to €640.000.

How IKEA Billionaire Legally Avoided Taxes From 1973 Until 2015

Quote:
89-year old IKEA founder Ingvar Kamprad is said to be the eighth wealthiest person in the world, with an estimated net worth of $43.2 billion. He was in favor of everything Swedish except taxes. So he spent more than 40 years paying as little as possible, both individually and for his company.
