Richard Fowler on with hungry howie claiming Biden corruption is an unproven withhunt. Talk about desperate.
I use them but they are not much better than google and are all google based when they cant come up with answers.
brave still the best of what there is.
Its easy to say don’t by China but harder to find out where the replacements are.
If the neighbors of Ukraine don't care enough to save them that pretty much says a lot,IMHO.
Why don't they want to help Ukraine no matter what the cost? There likely is a reason.
We can't even secure our own border! What business do we have trying to secure Ukraine when the effort and money is needed here at home? Oh yeah one other small detail: WE ARE BROKE!!
No OSHA, No 401(k), no Business Taxes, Etc. Chinese workers/employees get low wages, in the U.S. we hire "Undocumented" to do our yards for the same reason - we do not wish to pay the for all of the "extras" that the politicians have imposed on us as "unseen" taxes / costs
When the commercial real estate reset happens, there will be enormous capital losses for businesses to take, and numerous appeals to lower assessed values and applicable real estate taxes. The pressure will be on, because the property owners are also major political donors, so they can't just be ignored. Buy popcorn futures for that show.
All we have is the upper end of most markets and "Made in America." It's a tougher sell but it can be done.
For better or for worse the world runs on capitalism. If a similar product costs 1.00 in china and 2.00 here or Eurpoe unless there are huge differences its not much of a contest who will get the orders. If china is trying to take over the world,as they are, the smart play is to look for other possible vendors who can produce what the chicoms do at a similar price.Capitalism rules and big producers,walmarts,coscos,others set the standards.Most purchases are based on competition little else.
If the left had their way, smuggling bible pages would be only a small part of things you would need to worry about. Your very existence would be of great concern, and not a reliable prediction.
you gotta wonder how far we are from that now?
The majority will comply when ordered to get on the trains.
Who volunteers life, liberty and sacred honor to change it, except vicariously through Trump?
North Carolina drops STEM departments, keeps politically correct ones
Slated for elimination are undergraduate programs in:

Geology
Mathematics
Computational mathematics
Sticking around and/or getting more funding:
African-American and African Diaspora Studies

Peace and Conflict Studies
Liberal and Interdisciplinary Studies
Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies
All of this will take place at UNC-Greensboro.
Noisome on NBC and Cruella Whitmer on CNN are pitching the “Evil Republicans are going to stop all abortions and force women to have rapists babies” schtick.
I am in the Engineering business - we Engineer, and build off-shore platforms, refineries.
THE No.1 cost in the Engineering portion of the work is PEOPLE. SO Most of the .S. based Eng. companies have migrated their engineering work to LOWer Cost centers - Check Republic, Poland, INDIA, Philippines.
In the Middle East - the Saudis, U.A.E, Qatar, etc, hire INDIANS to do some Eng. both localy and mostly in India and Manual Labor locally constructing Off-Shore Platforms.
Always the same reason - LOWER Cost / MAN hour of labor. This is not a U.S. phenomena - EVERYONE is now competing against everyone - Lowest cost MANhour wins.
RAW Materials are the same Cost for Everyone - costs for Semi-finished / Finished products are a big function of Manhour costs. For reference see FORD, GM, etc.
No OSHA, NO Social Security, No 401(k), NO Insurance = LOW COST
White people who are STEM people will not go, so no revenue to the University.
Some Black and dumbass Females will attend for now getting themselves into major debt that supports the MANY EXTRA non teaching positions at the University / Highschool.
After graduation these "uneducated" people will not be able to get a job - no even at McDonalls as MickyDs. will have replaced manual labor with ROBOTS, as they are cheaper, do not complain and show up to work.
But the "Uneducated" will have large DEBTS. ONE possible solution - have them join / be conscripted into the military and send to be cannon fodder on some front line somewhere. These people will not be able to handle the Hi-Tech military on the NOW and the future
LOl could very well be post of the day,two of my favs!!
Completely sickening what has been going on in our country and under our noses. A collection of causes (Communism, Gays, Trannies and others (LGBTQ+, etc.), governments (China, Islamic states and other influencers) have managed to buy or bribe their ways into academia, government at all levels, bureaucracy at all levels, law enforcement agencies, military, education down to pre-schools and day care. Everyone’s most private thoughts and communications are open to display and exploitation and stored forever, retrievable at whim or will. And our elected representatives do nothing to correct the wrongs that now and then get uncovered or exposed (such as Snowden and Wikileaks’ revelations). One of the few bright spots is this Sunday morning FR trereads, so I hate to see it close without solutions. But at least we have hope. As Jesse used to say “Keep Hope alive!” (And thanks for producing and supporting this thread!)
its gonna be along road back but with the right leadership its doable.
