Trump's top re-election priority: delay coming debt-driven crash. Press FED to cut interest rates. After on/off China fight hype a "breakthru" deal by mid-2020. Hope crash hits after Nov. 2020. If not, blame FED. Dems, except Sanders and Warren, have weak counter-plans or none.

Europeans no longer trust US authorities to decide whether/when Boeing's 737 Max safe enough to fly. Boeing has less clout over there. Or safety is taken more seriously.


Europe will not accept US verdict on 737 Max safety

another sign of the times?

"Raising the federal minimum wage, which has now lapsed for the longest ever period without an increase, will benefit millions of low income workers and lift more than one million Americans out of poverty."

Raising the federal minimum wage isn’t just the right thing to do for workers—it’s also good for the economy

my company has a few bull jobs that im aware of. the supervisors arent working 50% of the time.

on a side note one thing that i started doing recently that makes work better is pretending like im totally incompetent because it really milks the easier tasks.

one of my coworkers whos whipped by the company was complaining to me about another coworker who was talking too much. he claims he learned to talk from another coworker LOL. talking on the job is common sense aka having fun.

at my job many of us walk at a pace as if we are 80 years old.

capitalism does not work.

last night my buddy and his roommate and i were rating how we feel about capitalism. his roommate who likes it gave it between a 2 and a 4 point something. my buddy runs a coop.
