    Cintas (CTAS) anyone?

    Any feedback as to why the sell? Your call was ominous enough that I prudently sold -and it was the reasonable call considering my lucky timing. But I'm still quite bullish on CTAS as an investment, due to its time tested long that looks like some of the tech giants.

    Delusion

    I'm an atheist and a humanist, tolerant of those who find solace in their religious beliefs, provided they reciprocate that tolerance towards those of different faiths or none. I recognize that the above statement, foundational to my belief, is also grounded in christianity, because I was born...

    Can police give a self-driving computer a ticket?

    Is that what you believe? Isn't it a bit like saying, all this effort to bring a search engine is to get rid of paying librarians...? I'll give you a chance to consider the ramifications of self driving.

    How high-speed rail in America can become a reality

    You're a fool if you believe grifting is political. Grifters use the system for their personal interest. Look at the guy you want for president; he's the king of grifters.

    Cintas (CTAS) anyone?

    Yesterday I was reminiscing with a friend about CTAS and, while talking to him, checked the price... 720!! Amazingly solid growth stock, I decided to put in a buy at 720 before premarket as my friend confirmed it's scheduled for a 4 to 1 split in September. At open I only got a partial fill but...

    TSM ... Taiwan Semiconductor

    The irony is the CEO of TSMC is Taiwanese American. He started his business in SoCal but couldn't get funding or necessary skills to grow there so he moved to Taiwan.

    Leadership is a personality trait that not many people have. One has to have this character to reject the role.

    How high-speed rail in America can become a reality

    I think there are a couple, one in Florida and one from LA to Las Vegas (built by a Chinese company). Rail competes with air and cars, both major conglomerates with traditional support from Republican money and Democrat unions. Rail is a union magnet, and if the Bay Area BART rail system is any...

    How high-speed rail in America can become a reality

    The reason America can no longer develop forward thinking infrastructure projects is because decision making is highly fragmented. Say what you want about China's or Europe's 5 or 10 years plans, but things move. I saw how Shanghai became a modern metropolis in less time than it took to...

    I'm a strong believer in democracy as the vehicle to meet a population's aspirations for their country. I may not agree with the results of an election but I respect that those who won ought to govern according to their stated goals during the election period. Yet, per the data gathered in...

    Historical review of America's far right

    Unions may have been pro Democrat in their early days, but in the last 20 years, as their pay packages raised them to middle classes, they affinities began to slide Republican. But MAGA went one step further, by openly saying that whites males are loosing their power because Dems opened "their"...

    Historical review of America's far right

    Further proof that while MAGA is vocalizing their anti immigration policies, their true goal is to win over the predominantly white, middle class income, labor force. This is the same playbook used by Hitler and his National Socialist Nazi party who successful drew power from the post WWI...
