So any policy that encourages jobs here in America has a much bigger effect than just the benefit of the initial number of jobs.

I don't think the policies encourage jobs but rather protect current ones... which will be less relevant in a decade. We're going to end up in a situation where the best jobs are those economies that have continued to evolve. If you need any evidence, I'll tell you the number of foreign nationals we hire because there is literally no one in the US qualified, technically, to do them. The US owns the IP so the workers from places that didn't complete, like India, are relocating en masse. Not only will we not own the IP of the future if we don't invest now, all the people trained to make use of it will emigrate to countries that do.

This is part PR stunt, but it's a legitimate threat to a healthy US economy: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.reuters.com/article/us-france-election-macron-idUSKBN15J0RQ">http://www.reuters.com/article/us-franc ... SKBN15J0RQ</a><!-- m -->

If you need further evidence, study the Japanese economy over the last two decades. Their xenophobic policies, that are actually quite similar to Trump's, have hurt them bad.
