Re: Business, Economics & Tax Policy 7: Workers of the world unite!
St. Louis shocks me on that list. I just assumed that city has been shrinking since 1960.
One of the truly depressing experiences of my recent life was driving through Calgary and realizing their sprawl rivals Phoenix and Vegas for hideousness. I thought it was just Hurr Durr America that was to blame, but even our angelic neighbors to the North... granted, Alberta is Texas with worse winters.
By extrapolation, I would expect Australia to become the worst place on Earth.

I know that part. I was referring to the fact that the Australian population are the UK losers who were so awful even our own Appalachians turned them down.

The bridge, the jetty, Old Town, it’s all very beautiful. Problem is the rest of it is either gated retirement communities or tract housing with huge drug problems.
Or the casino, which is on the edge of town anyway.

I told you, I'd be happy with one out for every one in. And I know who to start with.
So you want to control immigration as well to keep people out?!?
Shame...

The reservation near Madras is the most depressing place I've ever been. Men huffing from plastic bags in daylight on the street. Poverty jacked up past 11.
I didn't know there was any native land near Florence.

*edit* I am fully prepared for the subsequent quoting of this post with links showing said publicly known problems.
At least *this* businessman has some goddammed common sense and an ability to be told "No" once in a while without repercussions (well, at least we haven't been told of any public transgressions, unlike the well known track record that accompanied Trump).

Well..... mookie initially thought he resigned due to his employees hating ni**ers. Was taken aback to see the presidential aspirations noted.

UPS could find Hair Furor's ire if this isn't resolved. And then someone will tell him it's all the union's fault, and he's going to claim that 6% of GDP is dependent upon you. With a full 1/16th of our nation dependent upon your company's operation, he might try to pull a Reagan and bust the strike in the name of national safety. He'll manufacture the safety portion of that argument.

Re: Business, Economics & Tax Policy 7: Workers of the world unite!
It would be nice to see every labor union in the country go out. An honest to god general strike. And then have consumers observe the strike, not cross lines, and maybe extend the strike in their own non-union shops, themselves.
The people have all the power, they just don't know it. Between labor and, maybe more importantly now, consumption, we could force our politicians to the bargaining table and start to claw back some of our basic rights and dignity from the 1%. Not even the rich have enough cops and soldiers to stop that.

Remember, Harry nationalized the steel industry back in 1952 (for about a month until SCOTUS told him no).
