Since the trade war started in early 2018, our economy has been strong. The Fed increased interest rates 4 times following the onset of the trade war prior to the cut last month. Our GDP growth matched the highest rate we've had in the past 13 years. We have the lowest unemployment rate in 50...

Last year our GDP matched its highest level in 13 years. China's GDP was the lowest they've had in 27 years.

I read the manifesto. He's definitely not a democrat, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he's an independent.

I think more than anything it's the principle of the act that bothers me. I have a great deal of respect for the people that immigrate here legally. They've gone through a long & difficult process to prove that they deserve to be a U.S. citizen. It bothers me that others simply hop a fence and...

I don't care about ethnicity, race, religion, gender, or orientation. I dislike everyone the same amount. ;) Diversity is a great thing. The world would be a boring place if we were all the same. I'm all for legal immigration. I'm glad that the U.S. opens its arms every year to far more legal...

https://gunsafetyrules.nra.org/ https://www.nrainstructors.org/search.aspx My dad was an NRA member. I can tell you from experience that the NRA and their members are all about safe & responsible gun ownership. They know that irresponsible ownership threatens the future of their rights. They...

Statistics show that 96-98% of mass shootings occur in gun free zones. There won't be very many "good guys with guns" stop shootings like this when they occur in places where they aren't allowed to carry. I've seen mixed reports about whether or not this shooting occurred in a gun free zone...

The NRA promotes safe & responsible gun ownership. The diet equivalency would be a safe & responsible diet designed to maintain a proper weight and maximize health. Obesity related illnesses kill around 1 million people every year in the U.S. Fast food & improper diets are exponentially more...

https://www.ig.com/uk/spread-betting-cfds-margin Check out this link. It explains the margin requirements for trading CFD's in the UK. This specific broker requires 5% margin on index funds for retail traders. So if you had a $5K account, you would only be able to purchase $100K worth of...

Decriminalizing border crossings and offering citizenship to undocumented immigrants is the same thing as open borders. You're essentially telling anyone that wants to come here that they can stay as long as they find a way across the border. Laws don't work if the benefits for breaking them far...

I just read through the manifesto. This psychopath was all over the map. He references the New Zealand shooter, and it's clear that he had a similar mindset. The NZ shooter said that he felt like Muslims were invading much of Europe. This guy said that he felt like illegal immigrants were...

I looked over your trade log. One of your trades is for $6.85 million worth of contracts. I'm not familiar with the margin requirements outside of the U.S., but assuming you have a 5% margin requirement, you would need around $350K in your account to trade that much size. Your profits would be...

There are a lot of stupid people out there. A hacker can easily steal private information from thousands of people simply by sending out fake phishing emails. Can you imagine the voter fraud that would occur if a hacker was allowed to use this information to cast votes online? In a perfect...

So you want to allow online voting after Russian hackers tried to influence our last election? What could go wrong with that idea....

https://www.militarytimes.com/news/2019/05/09/a-dozen-companies-chosen-to-work-on-up-to-5-billion-in-construction-projects-for-trumps-border-wall/ It looks like they narrowed down the pool of contractors to bid on the border wall construction back in May. You won't see anything significant...

Bush, Obama, & Trump have all failed now to pass comprehensive immigration reform when they controlled Congress. Immigration reform is a polarizing subject, even within parties. I doubt we'll see a bill pass without bipartisan support unless one party gains a significant majority in both the...

I'll offer no spin. This guy was obviously a psychopath. I'm not sure how we do it, but we need to find a way to keep people like this from legally purchasing firearms. That's why I'm all for background checks that include mental health history. FWIW, AK style rifles aren't illegal to purchase...

We saw the largest wage growth last year that we've seen in a decade, but still it seems that many companies are favoring bonuses & stock buybacks over raises. I wish they would apply more of this additional revenue to salaries, but I understand why they aren't. Just about every democratic...
