@sonhouse saidYour first para, where I stopped reading, is theStooopidest thing you’ve ever written. It seems to suggest that these invaders have a right to vote in the United States . What if they’d just voted last Wednesday in Mexico or in Yemen?
@AverageJoe1
I used the number of 10 million whether they walk in or cut a huge patch of wall out just how is that supposed to stop voting? Last I heard you be a democracy because you vote in elections. If you can't do that THEN it is no longer a democracy and that is EXACTLY what your god king wants so he can keep his smelly ugly ass in power for the rest of his life. You ...[text shortened]... it to about 40 other folks so don't EVEN tell me he had the rest of those docs in secure locations.
Sonhouse, when you say “…you be a democracy because you vote in elections…”. Sonhouse,,,,,who is ‘you’. ..?? Yes, we all vote, we have a democracy. Are the ‘changing times’ of AOC and Marauder et al causing you to consider that if the invaders do not get to vote, that we won’t have a democracy.? You write worse than anyone here, because that cannot be what you meant.

~50 minutes long, says economy is very strong
@athousandyoung saidBut what COULD it be, but for Biden? Do you realize how his policies have cost us so much money? You liberals right now.” oh our a wonderful president. Everything is Rosiy! “ Contrare’, there are a lot of people in this country who find nothing Rosy about it. Even some of you. So methinks you’re you puff too much.

Everything is relative. You made more than you ever have, and maybe a guy working for Apple got a raise and he can say the same thing.
So did I. NASDAQ (capital letters out of respect and adoration!!) was up in 2023 by 43%. Forty Three percent. So if I happened to be in that market at $100,000 on Jan 1 2023, I made $43,000.
The Nasdaq climbed 43% in 2023, one of its best performances in two decades.
So, all over the board people who work and people who invest make money in different categories, some more, some less. It is all relative. On the other hand, the good economy numbers do not coincide with inflation numbers. That pesky inflation won't hurt the guy who made 43% in his sleep, but it will hurt the guy at Apple who got a raise.
You are aware that the average family is suffering??? Try to tell them about the good economy, and how far your increase in income went. I am speaking on average, of course. When someone refers to someone as 'your' on the Forum, it is generally referring to the average person of that category.
Some of the posts on the Forum connect it all up to Biden, but Thousand, they fail to mention the downside

@mott-the-hoople saidThat has more to do with fools and their money (you know what they say) than the US president. Corporations have far more control over the economy than the president.

@averagejoe1 saidWhy don't you bitch at corporate CEOs who keep prices high, making obscene profits, during the crap economy Trump left Biden with?

@suzianne saidTrump and Biden aside, if I own a corporation and pay myself more than my employees, is there a point at anytime where an individual or a government should dictate to the corporation how it should be run? How it should pay officers and employees? How much they should charge for goods or services?

This is in direct response to your post. We can have a nice exchange. This is sort of a subsection to my adage that "I do not see how someone has anything to do with what I am doing'.

Who decides what profits are obscene? If they are obscene, what would be the proper action to resolve the problem.?
we the majority
"If they are obscene, what would be the proper action to resolve the problem.?"
more taxation. worker safety regulations. irs audits to see what taxes are being dodged. make it illegal to donate more than a set amount of money to politicians. harsher punishments for fraud. break up monopolies or anything too big to fail.
Your dumb brain asked that question as if it was the most difficult thing in the world. As if nobody ever thought of ways to stop rich people stealing too much
@averagejoe1 said"Ohh the profits, the profits, woe the profits" cries suziman.
Who decides what profits are obscene? If they are obscene, what would be the proper action to resolve the problem.?
Profits are the difference between what something costs to produce (good or service) and the value that good or service is to another person. This is a good thing, and sometimes the producers get it wrong and suffer negative profit.
The only time it all gets stunk up is when goobermint force becomes involved as per recent example with the clotshot. The greatest transfer of wealth from the little man to mega billion dollar drug corporations through the force of the state the world has ever seen, and we saw suziman bragging up about how much juice she took, more money for multi billion dollar drug Co.s. So when suziman whines about obscene profits whatever the measurement, how ever she pulls the number out of her stinky butt...
...biggest hypocrite in the history of this message board.
@zahlanzi saidZahlooney Bamboozle, profit is what happens when the cost to produce a good or service is surpassed by the value free individuals put on that good or service. No need for you to interfere with your jealousy and envy.
