Just heard from my sister in Texas, a retired public school teacher. She has notified the local roofing contractor that she is canceling her plans for a new roof. She’s worried about spending that much money right now. That means one less job for the roofing company. The dominoes are starting to fall.
You are correct. Ask anybody who works as a materials buyer for a factory and they'll patiently explain to you who pays the tariffs when they order materials -- and it's NOT any government.
Its the same story they give about fired Federal workers. The federal workers will get to work in these factories that are coming back to ‘merica, but they are firing the federal workers NOW! Who knows when/if these factories are coming. the workers cant just sit on their hands like the christians waiting for the second coming.
Factories....does anyone understand that any factory that is built a new, will in no way resemble those union shops of old. The costs of mfg are not going to be able to rise substantially, unless the exorbitant costs of healthcare/insurance/copays are factored into the mix. As much of the AI development of automated mfg will be engineered into these new 'factory' job offerings! Those that aren't/can't will be offered to minimum skilled and minimum wage workers.
I can’t believe that the fake economist is Navarro himself. Perfect example of how destroying journalism and the ability to investigate and report on lying, criminal, and destructive people make it all so easy to destroy us.
Well, the Bloated Yam has bankrupted businesses, hotels, airlines, a university, and casinos -- which are licenses to print money -- so the United States is simply next on his list of failure.
"Everything Trump Touches Dies." Just as some of his supporters are late to understanding this, but they will as they get burned by their man who doesn't give a damn about them. He is an absolute FAILURE as a human being and a business man. The only thing he cares about is himself and stuffing his pockets with other people's money! And he has now surrounded himself with bone heads who only do what he says and just keep licking his boots and kissing his ass and screwing the rest of us - while America and now the world burns (And he plays golf to the tune of $26 million tax payer dollars as of March 30. Like paying for his golfing?) Trump and Musk and DOGE (which is a cover for the billionaires to steal our money and cover up their stealing from us as they destroy our governmental and financial infrastructure to benefit who? THEM) and the MAGA Project 2025 Republicans and the Federalist Society 6 gang at the Roberts court need to be driven out never to return. And be held accountable and responsible for this destruction. They need to pay a steep price for their crimes against America and Americans.
We are going to end up like the former Soviet Union with nothing on the shelves in the market, with people waiting for years to get a car or house built, and the members of the ruling party being able to access what they need elsewhere.
trump and navarro will have to pay for this! This should be illegal. I don’t care that the unsurpreme court gave trump a free pass on anything he does as president, this is evil and should be treated as such. No president is permitted to destroy our economy intentionally.
Thank you, FPWellman for being so clear and honest in your assessment based upon past painful personal experience. I am very sorry for what happened to you and your employees during the Pandemic and for what is going to happen now.
Back in Jan I spent New Year's Day in the ER of a tiny town French hospital having myself evaluated for a heart attack. Of course, it was not a heart attack at all but, rather, my own personal USian's psychoemotional physically-expressed reaction to the words "cash flow"--or the lack thereof--rolling around in my head with nowhere to go but where you have gone today in your article.
Given who and what the PINO of the USA is, has always been, and is becoming evermore of, there was never any doubt that we, as a society, would come to this juncture if The Public did not have the support of its elected representatives and The Rule of Law to protect it.
My retirement account is tanking. I'm glad i kept some on the side in a simple savings account. But overall with a plethora of minor medical issues I can't work anymore. So if the dollar and the stock market really goes to shit and my Social Security and medicare goes away I'll be living the rest of my abbreviated life in the woods in a house made of shipping pallets. Great retirement Dandy Diaper Don master of the universe. Here's an irony for Donny: the more you try to force people to love you, the more they will loathe you by a multiple of 4x - 6x. (Just my estimation.) In that model you will never ever get the love, affection and validation that you REALLY crave. So us libs have already won the war!
Will the entire world come groveling back to kiss the flabby, $hit stained tush of the Mango Mobster as released most of the world from beneath his all powerful thumb? As the NYSE has jumped at the perilous news of a delay of impending doom/tariffs! Chaos is the only certainty in Trump's reign of terror! Behold! Only I can manipulate the casino, called stock trading algorithms! I, and only I, can...with a stroke of my pen...make trillions of faux $$$ appear or disappear!

And let's not forget that we are also cutting support for veterans, and many of these fired Federal workers ARE veterans....

The pure evil of it all…

I assume that he and his pals shorted the market. Deja vu all over again? https://alternativefundinsight.com/how-next-us-treasury-secretary-once-broke-the-bank-of-england/
