Even More Winning!

The economists haven't been right yet. Apparently, you enjoy being wrong and stupid on just about everything. :palm:
And all of Trumps tariffs are (assuming you mean’not’) in place yet , and after they are you need to give them time to work through the system.
Then we will see
The tariffs are in place, Tball. There is no 'system' to 'work through'.

From today’s far left NYTimes:

The Tariffs Kicked In. The Sky Didn’t Fall. Were the Economists Wrong?​

In part it’s because economists, including me, suffer from tariff derangement syndrome. We find ourselves disproportionately worked up every time they are increased.
Finally, there is the stock market, which is unfazed and setting records.
When economists and business leaders were warning about recession, it wasn’t just because of what tariffs did to the $3 trillion of our economy that was imports. It was more because of what record levels of economic policy uncertainty would do to the other $26 trillion, by stymieing investment decisions and consumer spending. Right now it looks as if all that uncertainty was closer to a momentary panic and background noise than something of lasting consequence.

Tball has no credentials, other than probably a driver's license.
... and even THAT is a scary thought! If FliptheBird is anywhere near as angry while driving as he is on this forum, then he's endangering every single driver around him. Hopefully those drivers are well aware of their surroundings.
 
There is a noticeable decline in the skill of the average American driver
For a variety of reasons. Misuse of AI and trusting it far too much, poor training, cars with more poorly build suspension systems, distractions like cell phones and complicated controls in cars (particularly in the entertainment system!), a higher level of anger, more 'sovereign citizen types', a high number of illegal aliens, and an overall carelessness.

Most of these factors are in or near cities. Get out on the open road and it's not anywhere nearly as bad.
 
View attachment 55541Are you ok with Trump spending $200,000,000.00 on a Gold- plated Ballroom at the White House while also cutting school meals for millions of needy children and Medicaid for millions of poor Americans?
Yes.

I am perfectly okay with removing millions of people from Medicaid as well. They were never eligible for it to begin with.
I am also perfectly okay with cutting funding for school lunches. That's a State function.
