Well, March, Beat Expectations

I'm sure this is of great solace to the auto workers who will be out of jobs if he closes the Mexican border. Oh, and the soybean farmers. And those people at Carrier in Indianapolis that still lost their jobs after he promised them they would not.
Economic indicators are still pretty good overall. GM is a mess. They brought a lot of that on themselves. We had to do something about China for stealing property and manipulating currency and markets. It is always isn't pretty, but overall things are good.
^^^pretty much this^^^
any good news and these guys throw a fit and pump out every negative they can drum up. sickening, really.
if all i could do at the drop of any good news would be to come up with as many negatives surrounding said news as i could, i'd eat a fvcking bullet.
The dems are so vested in trying to turn literally every single positive into a negative against Trump that they're doing exactly what the GOP shouldn't have done with Obama. If Trump gets a second term, you bitches have yourselves to blame.
Well yeah, fvck China. What does that have to do with the Mexican border?
Like it or not, supply chains are now global. We can't fix that part overnight.
GM actually isn't a mess. They are cutting some sedans, like a lot of carmakers. They are putting that money into EV's and autonomous. That will pay off in the end.
Not, but I bet those soybean farmers are.
Are you incapable of intelligent discourse? Or just already drunk for the weekend. Stupid fvcking Michigan piece of shit, like everyone else in Michigan.
isn't that issue with the soy bean farmers(china)? GM might get better, but it is still a mess and that is why they are cutting.
Sounds like you need to try out that new Viagra nasal spray, made specifically for dickheads, like yourself.
Go ahead and give it a shot anyway. Nice pun, right?
I'm holding the orange bastard to his campaign promises. Why? Because he specifically came to my state and made those promises to my fellow Hoosiers. Dreh is a no-good cocksucker that does not care about his fellow no-good Michigan cocksuckers.
And let's talk about the threatened border closure. Ford alone employs 13k people in my metro area. I'd say there are at least another 10k jobs in the auto industry. I'm all for making all the parts in the USA, but that shit can't happen overnight. Those two Ford plants, and the two Toyota ones down the highway, use Mexican parts (better than goddamn Chinese parts). If that bastard closes the border, he will make 23k of the best paying blue color jobs around here disappear, and another 20k within the fringes of my area. This is serious stuff. How many people does this industry supply near you? Absolutely fvcking zero. Of course you don't care, and make this about librul and cvntservative.
The issue is we fvcked China (which can be a good thing) but no one told the farmers they would get fvcked too. This shit can't be fixed all on impulse, there are consequences to be considered and planned for. It's a long-term game.
I take pleasure in the little things in life, like how Indiana state troopers always have cars with Michigan tags stopped, giving them tickets.
The one good thing about Michigan? It makes Ohio seem tolerable.
Is raoul fvcked in the head, bonged out, or simply getting his news from dherd's posts?
Sober up you prick.
Sober up you prick.
I'm fvcking with you being a Michgander. Or whatever the fvck you people are. Half-Canadians.
give it a shot? i'm not the one crying like a bitch because i, sob, don't like the scary orange man. as for the rest of your post, sorry, not reading another diatribe of crybaby bullshit.
Jerking off with the left hand is never as good.
And you don't like the facts. I expect more greatness than just sticking it to the beaners. Sure, it feels good to stick it to the beaners, the naggers, and the towelheads, but that shit doesn't pay the bills.
silly faggit, it has nothing to do with "the facts". it has everything to do with every.single.time. a positive posted, you mentally deranged cocksuckers go out of your way to dig up every.single.negative you can to make yourself feel better.
oh, and the fvcking hypocrisy and irony in your "you don't like facts" statement. see the OP for example, you obviously didn't like it and felt the need to overshadow it in your mind with all the negative bullshit you could.
you should open up the weekend of drinking a variation of your beloved craft beers with a tall glass of bleach.
I think the fvcker got a hold of some killer weed. Tripping like a MFer today.
Should the full findings of a criminal investigation be released if the subject wasn't charged with a crime?
How about you suck my sack to start off your weekend? SUCK MY VANILLA SALTY BALLS...PUT 'EM IN YOUR MOUTH.
I'm mad the son of a bitch isn't MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. He's a no-good son of a bitch, but I've been clear since the "old board" where I stand on economic/trade policy (lay off the wacky backy and you could remember shit). If he'd do that right (we MUST drop the debt AND focus on rebuilding infrastructure and industry to compete with the Chinks/Dots/Beaners and make the shit we need to stop buying from them; not cut taxes on rich cocksuckers, we can do that later after we fix shit) and keep his cocksucker shut and stay off of Twitter, I wouldn't hate the guy. He's still be a no-good son of a bitch, though.
And did I deny the "facts"? No.

So health care is up (thanks Obamacare?), we are still building shit that didn't get built during the recession (that's always how it works), and then it's sorta meh. Nothing wrong with meh, but I'm not the one spanking my crank over meh.
I don't smoke anymore. Job and shit. If I win the lottery we'll all go to Colorado.
EL OH EL! you probly coulda stopped with the bold part above. however . . .
got damn, i'm so tired of hearing and reading about obamacare ("thanks obamacare"). that is the shittiest one got damn piece of trash legislation. sure, everybody gets health insurance. YAY!
but wait! everybody gets a $10,000+ deductible! motherfvckers who can't afford the premium and get it subsidized are going to come up with the deductible exactly HOW?
but wait! if you get it and are subsidized then your income goes up, you have to pay all the tax credits back! i've personally witnessed multiple scenarios this year where the dumbass tax payer had subsidized obamacare and they ended up having to pay back $5K plus in tax credits because their income was more than the estimate. sure, it's their fault for being a dumbass, but why put dumbasses in a position to totally fvck themselves like that? and, on top of that, the comments made were, more or less, "was shit insurance anyhow, the deductible was $10K+."
hell, i knew a slew of people who paid the fine instead of carrying the insurance because it of the vast savings.
fvcking obamacare . . . frankly, it shows me the lack of intelligence someone has who actually is stupid enough to tout that trash.
you need one of those vapes. i hear the medical shit will send you to orbit.
Still would blow a drug test.
I do take CBD oil. I've been taking it about a month and a half. I see enough in an improvement in my pain and inflammation that I'll keep on spending $50 a month on this stuff. I was able to briskly walk two miles the other day without feeling like I had been beaten in the knees and hips, so there's that.
Do you think is really helping or is it placebo-ish? Either way, if you feel better then, then it's worth it. But the public introduction came on so fast that I don't feel there's enough history to really know the benefits yet. I say that fully hoping it's as beneficial as everyone is claiming.
Great question.
There's also the possibility the weather is getting better. Cold is starting to affect my knees, hips, and my left shoulder. I naturally feel better as it warms.
But for now, I'd mark it down as about a 30-40% improvement for me. My bad pain days are less bad. And that's enough for me. It's not some super drug that will have me swinging a golf club again.
In my line of work, I've seen it do some pretty neat stuff for people with more severe forms of autism. More tolerance to stimuli, fewer outbursts, etc. These are people that I highly doubt would have a placebo effect.
God damn cracker...I'm not saying Obamacare is good.
I'm saying Obamacare has given more people "access" to health care...so more people get health care...and something pays for it, so that grows the health care industry.
It's simple, really.
Yeah, you Trumpers hate CNBC, and yeah the article goes on to say the sky would fall without Obamacare, but this is simply for reporting a study by Goldman Sachs, which doesn't strike me as a company overran with Commies.

Real conversation in my clinic after we discuss how crappy the (cancer/terminal) patient feels...
Hungus - “you tried pot yet?”
Patient - “nah, not yet”
Son in the background to his dad - “Dad I told you that shit gone help”
—-
Two weeks later..,
Patient - “the pot kind of helps with my nausea”
====
I think THC really can help. Wish I could Rx.
However some elderly patients seem to not like the paranoias or weird feelings.
I’ve never smoked it myself but I have patients I trust that swear it helps. It’s a travesty that I can write for oxys all day long and they can’t get pot,

Well right back at you.
I addressed your misunderstanding of the topic at hand: the effect of government policy on one sector of employment statistics. None of this requires nor demands an examination of the "good or bad" of the policy. Apples and oranges. Ramps and mushrooms.
They don't dig up new stuff they just repeat old stuff. Tariff's against China didn't ruin America at all like EG Thought it would
Now, you're a lying idiot.

More proof that not all lawyers (and former cabinetmakers) understand what’s good and/or bad for businesses. There is at least 3 examples he gives in the first 30 listed in the article (I quit reading at that point) that are complete B.S.
And yes. Sisters is right. It hasn’t “ruined” America.
You just need to hold Greed's cans to solve that stuff.
But seriously, I know someone with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Curious if you've seen anyone with something like that using CBD oil? What type of "-itis" are you suffering from?
