Posts: 707Economy is already changing in Los Angeles
I count cranes on my drive to work. We were at a high of 17 cranes 6 months ago. Yesterday there were only 6. So new construction projects are not being started as old ones finish. I think fiscal policy is needed to keep the economy moving forward. Hopefully that new investment money will go to places were it is more needed and less congested like Trump counties. We forecast 180000 jobs lost in Los Angeles County if we put a 35% tariff is put on trade with China. A large portion of the goods you find at Walmart and Costco come through the Ports of Los Angles and Long Beach.
Another interesting experience I had recently is that I bought a maple leaf gold coin for someone's birthday at one of these gold exchanges. The other 3 people in the store were all selling. I have never been a gold bug but I always want to buying what others are selling. I am trying to decide was this a freak coincidence or is there really a low demand for gold right now and a buying opportunity.

Posts: 912It has only been a bit more than 50 days
Come on guys give the man a chance, it's only been a bit more than 50 Day's.
Unemployment and job numbers are still being cooked, they have not pivoted yet but will have to when the U3 goes negative indicating we are employing more people than are available. Guess they will start using the U6 then.
Don't forget the market, that too is just a figment of the imagination, since it skyrocketed as soon as Trump was elected.
How could he go wrong by firing 3,200 eggheads at the EPA?
I just wish he would abolish the Department of Energy, which was set up under Jimmy Carter during the Arab oil embargo to insure we had adequate oil supplies. Anyone notice we have an oil glut - so the reason for continuing the white elephant is what?
Abolish the Department of Education, what an oxymoron at the federal level, let the states run their own programs as before.
Start impeaching liberal federal judges when they clearly engage in judicial overreach. Damn sure need to split the 9th Circuit Count of Appeals and let the Peoples Republic of California, Washington and Hawaii live in LaLa Land. It can be done as it was with the 12th. The 9th is the most reversed count in the country.

Posts: 2700How come the Trumpers are Quiet?
Obama has been on Twitter since 2007, posted over 15000 posts.
Not one has come to the attention of any Government agency.
But, lots of Trumps Tweet's are in the news.
Why?
What drug is he on?
What an egotistical liar.

Posts: 912To Liberal Progressive & Conservative Brothers
To all my Liberal Progressive & Conservative brothers here on the board. Rave on my brothers because no one really cares and you are not going to change anyone's mind but vent your spleen to your heart's delight.
As with the Obamanation and now with the Trumpian it is going to play out as plays out and there is absolutely nothing either side of discussion can do about it but piss, bit#h and moan.
So take a chill pill, drink a beer and enjoy the Super Bowl.
My Best to you ALL.
Monger on dudes!

Posts: 707Why are taxes bad for conservatives and good for liberals?
http://www.nationalreview.com/articl...housing-prices
For me, it is a social war and nobody really cares about the economics.
I think we are going to a have an Atlas Shrugged situation. All the liberals are going to quit working because the taxes are too high and the Republicans living off social security will no longer be able to afford their guns. Basically that is what is happening right. Impose tariffs on international companies so that some idiot in Ohio can get a job.
Never understood the fascination with Ayn Rand which I read as a teenager. I mean Rand liked kinky sex so those parts were good. But Ryan and Tillerman are mature men now to continue to say Atlas Shrugged is their favorite book.
Read Ethan Canin's America America and you will have a better understanding why liberalism failed.

Posts: 2700Investigation of voter fraud
I guess that states you live in don't announce to many things about the truth.
Such as the Pew report in 2012.

We started building the Wall along our California Border and Trump Country.
