@chenx064@BBattmer@WalterLapp Plus average American works by the hour, lives paycheck to paycheck. Modern day Americans can never afford to rise up for more than a week before they have to punch the clock again to be able to eat.
@WalterLapp Uganda’s Idi Amin used to claim to have most money, best brain, ultimate knowledge and his negotiating skills… with disastrous results. After 50 years of human progress, Americans have shown to world that they have achieved the level of Average Ugandan of 1970s.
@WalterLapp Today our infrastructure is 50+ years behind China, our inflation adjusted income is still around 1980 levels. Baby Bush’s wars, financial crisis and Trump’s mismanagement have turned us into world class beggars.
Trump is poor white man’s revenge.
Anyone from Illinois knows Gov. Pritzker is the real deal. This speech he gave at Northwestern’s graduation, where he reminded folks that the best way to spot an idiot is to spot the person who is the most cruel, is worth rewatching and sharing.
@WalterLapp Free trade had kept inflation in check because world has more capacity to produce than to consume. He is wrongly causing trade disruptions to our detriment. Higher inflation if not countered by higher interest rates will weaken Dollar. Depends upon how long this idiocy lasts.
@WalterLapp I think crashing US Dollar is the goal. Like he thinks tariffs are good, same way he might think that this way we might have to pay “less” real money out.
Steve Martin did the opening monologue for SNL’s 50th anniversary special which included Martin Short being taken by ICE & an appearance from John Mulaney.
“894 people have hosted SNL and it amazes me that only 2 of them have committed murder”
