Business, Economics, and Taxes: Eat Cereal for Dinner

I'm not arguing anyone should or should not WFH, I just found it ludicrous someone was trying to paint this broad stroke that WFH cannot possibly be as effective as working in the office. It's not a one-sized fits all thing.

The other part that was annoying was he asked, "Why should businesses have to bend over backwards for workers' demands?" completely ignoring the fact that that labor has been bent over by management more often than not since the dawn of time.

I mean...we are talking about gator here.
 
Only the best deals.

Blunt said in an interview the U.S. companies and workers “definitely are at a disadvantage” because they face a 50% tariff on steel and aluminum and a 25% tariff on parts and finished vehicles, with some exceptions for products covered under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement that went into effect in 2020.

Not to mention that tariff prices haven't actually hit the American market yet due to older inventory still available. Can't wait for the new model year!
 
I like that Trumpers now tout the Market as proof Trump's plan is working despite costs going through the roof. A year ago we were told that the Market didn't matter because costs were through the roof. Hmmm...
 
I have a good one for you- I was up in the UP having dinner in Hancock with some family and future family, and I brought up the concept that pretty much all conservative Yoopers are strident environmentalist based on so many being against new mining (gravel, iron, copper, whatever) and wanting to preserve the rest of the environment for their hunting and fishing. And got an interesting response that "they just don't want change" as opposed to recognizing that all of those ideas are core values to Democrats.

I didn't bother to bring up the very common complaint of the health system in the UP.

Crazy that they brush off any idea that they share any ideas and values with Democrats, let alone ones that are so core to what they are as Yoopers.
People don’t like to hear they are stupid
 
Studies show people are more productive working at home and more efficient...
Making people come in has nothing to do with productivity. People work better at home, obviously, which destroys the mythical need for middle level management. The Man Behind the Curtain is terrified the great con is about to be exposed and is fighting hard to restore the status quo.

How are MBAs going to get a job if they have to actually do something? Zero skills, zero abilities, zero value added.

Just wait until the market starts to penalize firms with absentee owners skimming profit rather than owners who are also the workers creating the value.

The free market will destroy capitalism where the reds failed.
 
Never have I been as miserable and depressed as when I was working for these people. So many companies and careers ruined by these bozos
TBF they are strictly bargain basement parasites. The owners and the board are the true dead weight. Hello 3% Picketty wealth tax.

It’s why I actually respect some of the rich people in my family- if you can do open heart surgery, you’re actually skilled. Ain’t no way I want that stress in my life

I wish the curriculum could at least be revamped, but line has to go up
 
When you investors project ROI do you use 10-5-3? 10 seems warped by recent bull markets to me. In practice, I essentially use 9-5-0.

(To all: x-y-z is a mean return of x% on stocks, y% on bonds, and z% on cash).

I use 7-4-1 for conservative estimates. Actual performance is like 10.5-5.2-(mix of 3 to 0)

Lol, it ain't that complicated.

They need to justify their billions of dollars of commercial real estate holdings. No workers in office = no need for office space.
 
Biden’s tenure in the office keeps getting longer. Tapper really blew it, didn’t mention anything about those first couple years in his book.
