Yes. If ups could hire people at 3.00$ they would. Look at Amazon. Our union is the only reason we have what we have.

who is hurt if you don't sell?
dow was 10700 in 2005
its presently at 40000
recently its dropped approximately 5 percent.
its dropped at least 5 percent 20 times in the last twenty years.
yet overall your money has at least tripled in that time

So a drop under trump is ok. Under anyone else it’s bad. Got it
