We all Buy Groceries, We all Buy Gasoline

Well Matt knows what the tariffs did was to force the trump administration to give businesses money (corporate welfare) to help make up the losses from his tariffs. trump killed the soy bean industry in the US because our former buyers found other suppliers without tariffs.

This is why we can't ever trust a Republican with our economy. After tax cuts, they have nothing.

It was devastating to certain sectors, and caused immediate price hikes in the appliance industry. And then anything that used Chinese steel/aluminum.

China kicked trump's ass on that one. You are correct. Other nations benefitted bigly because trump doesn't understand economics 101

Sections 6 and 7 are quite relevant. There's other insanity in there as well.

I dare you to read it and see what the shitbag-in-chief has done.

Apparently you didn't know. :dunno:

You do realize that most developed nations are experiencing inflation, is Biden responsible for that, too?

You do realize that Biden has fucked fuel things up for America worse than Jimmy Carter did back in the 70s, right?

No Democrat was elected for 12 years after that. This time I say it will be 16-20 years.

But those who remain are capable of intelligent discussion. I have all of the assholes on ignore, save for one or two who amuse me.

When I first came back, several months ago, I had just come from a heavily-moderated site. i did what you suggested - I had to - wasn't used to the number of trolls spamming the forum, like there are here. A month or so in, I looked at my ignore list and there were like 30 people on it. Too many, IMO. So I took everyone off and only put those on who really f up.. like bring up my family or threaten me with death.

Putting people on iggy doesn't prevent them from spamming me - so I figure I might as well deal with the trolls, answer the posts I want, and scroll by the rest.

And he's mean. A mean drunk is no fun to be around.

He starts fights, and ends up in the parking lot with a bloody nose.

He never learns.

I love it when he does his "tough guy" routine. "I weigh 233 and my friend has a pit bull". So what? I think he wants us to go, "wow!" :)

It's not so funny when you have to buy groceries and fuel and pay for housing. :nono:

The people will speak in November. If they are not heard, Lord help the cheating Democrats find sanctuary.

Nor does any Republican. Cut taxes for the rich and get rid of entitlements for the poor. That's all they've had since Reagan and it doesn't f'ing work!!!

Im laughing at your reply
You act like it’s only happening in America, it tough in a lot of countries.

I blame greed for inflation! Corporations are making record profits.

I have at least that many as well. It shortens the pages nicely. Given that the posts are empty calories, I don't miss what they have to say. Some boards have a feature where you can view the post right from the thread without having to remove the member from your ignore list. That's helpful.

Nobody disagrees about everything. Most of the assholes here NEVER have anything of value to add.

Some, however, have moments of clarity. Or...they post a question about a topic that I can help with. I'll take them off the list, and immediately put them back on.

To each his/her own for sure. It works for me.
