@paulswaney3 The actual problem is the cost of the property or lease, taxes, and insurance. If all of those expenses were less, they could employ people
@houstonpolice@whitmire_john@houstonpolice how do you expect crime on Washington Ave to go down when the number of bars keeps going up? Even with Washington under construction for the last month, several shootings and police chases in the middle of residential streets!

@realdogeusa Yes, it needs to be reeled in like Europe. One of the major problems is the "expecation" to open a restaurant is now in the multimillion capital spend. Thus, no capital left to pay wages.
@EndLiberalism@BillAckman@realDonaldTrump Corporations can only pass on those cost with credit. You can literally finance your groceries and restaurant bills in America with pay later options. That is what created the consumption problem to begin with.
@EndLiberalism@BillAckman@realDonaldTrump 2/2
If the price of an iPhone goes to $3,000, the next thing you will see if the ability to finance that phone at 0% interest for 5yrs. The ability for a consumer to finance goods is what really drove the need to supply more goods.
@EndLiberalism@BillAckman@realDonaldTrump 1/2 Take away the ability of a consumer to finance goods and first World consumption will instantly decrease. So yes tariffs exist, but there is also a first World consumption issue
@DOGE@Doge Where is the accountability in the Corporate World to save taxpayer money? Shouldn't these software companies step up for the American people and identify waste? They know they have licenses with no logins or use. Let's not let them skate by! Which CEO will step up first?
@stuartbuck1@DeAngelisCorey This data usually gets normalized into metrics such as positions per 100 kids or various other metrics. Normalize the data as the chart above is useless. In addition to headcounts stats, would also plot dollar values per X students. Admin $ per 100 kids, etc
@elonmusk This is trivial data that is easy to compile and surely people had seen this data before Elon and team.
So my concern is this:
Who is covering this up?
What is new with Elon and team is the Transparency.
