Thanks for agreeing. It's the most honest thing you've posted.

Disagreed, but thanks for the projection. When you make a claim, I expect you to back it up. Otherwise, I expect you to prove nothing you say.

Yes. Just like you.
 
The "Economic Blackout" organized by The People’s Union USA on February 28, 2025, where participants were urged to avoid spending at major retailers for 24 hours to protest corporate influence and policies like DEI rollbacks has had no effect as of March 2, 20225.

No data confirms a significant economic downturn tied to this event.

The U.S. economy is massive—GDP was $29.6 trillion in Q4 2024 per preliminary estimates—and a one-day boycott, even if widespread, would need extraordinary participation to cause a measurable "drop."

Anna Tuchman from Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management suggested the blackout might dent daily retail sales but wouldn’t sustain long-term economic damage. Marshal Cohen from Circana noted that national boycotts often generate more noise than financial impact, with sales shifts potentially offset by purchases before or after the event.

But don't forget; @Tbird19482 claims it was a right-wing hoax. :thup:

All my bets closed up Friday. We'll see in about six hours if that trend holds. The first hour and half after opening are usually the best for straddles in those I watch daily. Even Ford is holding steady last week, even with another recall being announced.

more of your famed deductive reasoning? I am not upset about janitors. I just always find it humorous that leftists like you who often times claim to be champions of the middle and lower classes, use those types of jobs as pejoratives when speaking to others.

As I say repeatedly, irony is completely lost on you marxists.

Nope, just more of my famed humor. Leftist: anyone left of Alt-Right. I've never claimed to be a champion of "the middle and lower classes" so you're wrong again, Donnie. As a pilot, I look down on everyone. Especially authoritarians like you.

Wow. You were wrong three times in one post. Not a record for you but still an above average number of errors by you. I'm not a Marxist. Unlike you, I've sworn an oath to the Constitution and abide by that oath.

Well Tomorrow is the day Trump says he will be putting the tariffs and Canada and Mexico so watch your Ford stock it could crash Ford builds a lot of cars and trucks in both countries, it may hit GM too but I don't think as much as Ford.
March 4th should be called TFAA day, Trump Fucks All Americans day.
If he does it it will hurt just about every American with higher prices on almost everything we buy.

Let's see if they praise Trump's leadership then again agree to do exactly what they've already been doing so Trump can declare victory, do his little victory dance and back off.

Well so far Trump has been all talk and no show.
Again IF he finally does it it is going to make the price of just about everything we buy go up by the percent of the tariffs and maybe more, I wouldn't put it past large corps. from adding an extra couple percent to pad their bottom line .

Well maybe IF the first " boycotts" had been advertised and people would have known about them they may have been bigger, but nobody I know even heard about then,
I never heard about them till you said something on here.
Thanks for putting out the new list maybe more people will hear about these and actually boycott them.

Agreed. The only thing he's done was round up brown people, illegals and American citizens alike, and put them in detention centers for deportation.

He hasn't done anything to lower grocery prices or reduce inflation which is the platform he ran on and the #1 why Biden then Harris lost.
