Yes, CEO pay is egregious. Not sure it’s fair to necessarily blame it on one political Party or President. Saw plenty of CEO pay inflation under Clinton, Obama - their own donor base benefited greatly ( as of course did Republican donors). IMO it’s both parties turning a blind eye to it. To...

That’s the first factual thing you’ve posted about me.

Check your white privilege.

Flags - nil. I’ve seen maybe one the past three years and that was on a deck boat under a pirate flag. Monuments - a few in very scattered locations; you’d have to drive quite a distance to find one. Schools and streets - very rare. I’ve seen more highways, streets, public buildings, and...

I read somewhere that there were something like 20 rally participants and literally hundreds of media ? I grew up in the South and returned a few years ago to the South. 28 years in total. Went to graduate school and worked in Chicago. This is strictly anecdotal - but I have never seen or...

Solid proof why Trey Parker and Matt Stone did so well with “Team America” in 2004.

It would appear that the US and Mexico jointly decided that China should pay for the wall. :D:D:D

Right - so the calculus is that in the Southern or Mid-Western ‘right to work’ law States a component manufacturer could certainly start assembly workers out at $16/hour. And the new corporate tax laws make hiring American workers and being able to expense plant and material (versus a...

The deal framework does NOT necessarily improve Mexico's position at the expense of the US because 40-45% of the now 75% local (US and Mexican) content requirement must made by workers being paid at least $16 per hour. The deal squeezes out Chinese auto parts and other Chinese supplies to the...

My guess is that there is a data transmission latency that makes the opportunity lag appear more pronounced than in reality. You would need the actual exchange order books on something really snappy - like 100x100 fiber minimum, to make a true assessment. Also, again just my guess but IMO the...

There you sit, generating thousands of political posts and bashing citizens where you don’t even live. You claim to know so much about a Country you live thousands of miles from.

I live in an area that’s majority black. In the South. The blacks here that vote Republican are typically called business owners and professionals. I know more of them than you do.

Tell me, in your own words, what the economic impact is to a US Company to be able to deduct an investment in plant and materials in Year One versus a protracted depreciation schedule over the course of several years? In your mind is that just, in your words, some “tax cut scheme” of no...

That’s it. That’s all you can come up with? That’s President Obama’s Economic Growth Policy - DoE Loans ?

And what exactly, besides Solyndra, was Obama’s economic growth policy?

Now you’re just being argumentative for no good reason - and defending the indefensible. Might I suggest you don’t make excuses for Gallup and the 2016 General Election. All of Gallup’s paid subscribers relied upon them to project the Presidential race. If you’re going to claim otherwise I...

Refresh my memory - what was Obama’s official solution for economic growth? Do tell. Besides Solyndra... I’ll concede that Trump is an asshole and a purveyor of skanks - but Godammit he campaigned on and quickly implemented an economic plan that was universally hailed by American Enterprise.

Suggestion: please send Gallup a copy of the 12th Amendment. Of course they’re going to tell their paid subscribers that they nailed the popular vote within the margin of error. Doesn’t cool the savage burn felt by the thousands of pundits and news desks worldwide. Dude, you can make data...

Every pollster was wrong about the election results - especially Gallup. Reconcile that. Faulty sampling methodologies, biased interpolation. And nothing has changed since for Gallup. They’re treating it as an aberration; a Black Swan event (which they can’t to this day explain adequately)

Fuck that I took my Masters from the University of Chicago. Ten graduate level economics classes. The Fed’s stated purpose for quantitative easing was to stimulate asset valuation. ( ‘Flooding the markets with liquidity as it were’ ) Read Ben and Janet’s meeting minutes - I have.
