Originally posted by Kepler View PostThe Plan is to fix that by marrying into one. Unfortunately, most rich people, and virtually all children of rich people, are so morally and intellectually bankrupt that no amount of money is worth being near them. This is why they pair off.Last edited by MissThundercat; 08-30-2019, 11:37 AM.Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01

Re: Business, Economics, and Tax Policy 8: Bezos Takes Over the World
Can someone explain to me WHY after the Tax Cuts and 84 Environmental Rules Being Rolled Back Under Trump that the economy isn't screaming right now?
The concept that this is true has been drilled into every American's skull since 1980. Why isn't the President on the TV right now explaining WHY his trickle down economics are not working? Enquiring minds want to know.
Also, since Climate Change isn't real why is Greenland, Antarctica, and the Arctic Circle melting? I don't get it. Are they lying? President's don't lie, (I just posted a video to that affect this morning).
By the way. Every moron who sold this ****ing economic bull**** can all DIE. Just DIE. You're a stain on humanity.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

Because they were an obvious con for the rich to rip off the rest of us.

All kinds of crazy shiat going on there. Everyone and their brother tried to hop on the gravy train and the result was a tsunami of questionable product until consumers threw their hands up and the market collapsed under its own weight. Quaker Oats had a farking video game division. It was mayhem.

Originally posted by rufus View PostMore appropriately, why isn't every Democrat on tv screaming about how with all those tax cuts, and business being no longer strangled by "burdensome" regulations that promote worker safety and environmental protections, the economy isn't steaming along at Trump's promised 5% growth rate?
