Can the Wall be built within two weeks . Donny promised it .
I got to say, I totally support compromising on the wall in exchange for DACA. The wall is pretty much just stupid. It’s actually highly inneffective and probably a waste of money. But doing things like adding more border officers actually leads us to hiring from the bottom of the pool and therefore giving guns to bad people and stupid people.
I get that the wall is symbolic as well, but I don’t care about symbols when a million peoples are at stake, I care about their lives.
I hope that Dem’s both hold firm on DACA and are willing to compromise on the wall or other border security issues.
I agree, but the answer to the compromise is very simple-hold Donnie to what he promised. Vote to build the wall as soon as the check from Mexico is received.
I hear what you’re saying but I’m not sure it’s that inconsequential. You let him build one single mile of that damn wall and he’ll never shut up about it. It’s an ongoing symbol for everyone of the antagonistic absurdity of the whole Trump phenomenon. There’d be a psychological victory quality to it that I think could really be fairly harmful.
Well, corporations like Apple and Microsoft have said they will use the cash from the planned tax cut and repatriated cash to help shareholders with share buybacks and dividends. They won’t be reinvesting it as capital, as the Trump economists falsely claim. And since the plan takes money away from the folks in the middle class, they’ll have less money to buy tech products, so there will be no need for those companies to increase capacity in the US, anyway.
BUT on the plus side, it looks like the Dollar Stores are planning for growth. They are all scheming for the boom as the number of poor increase and their chances of escaping poverty diminish.
From the Lex page of Friday’s FT:
Just in from wsj…some taxes reach 100%…
Dumb arses never know what the hell they are doing…call them out…1.888.897.9753 or at local offices…
Odd that they haven’t been complaining about that for the decades that it’s been true of various low-income benefit programs, not to mention for the subsidy phaseout of ACA…
why don’t news organizations just have "and Mexico will pay for it on a loop’ and play it once a day?
plus 30 yards will cost as much as an entire school district budget for a year, not worth it
Wait till next year on DACA? what you think between now and then theyll agree to a path to citizenship? NOT…and any hope that they would is political gymnastics and BS…
