Silicon Valley.
Lots of engineering fields available.
I wonder how those making minimum are surviving?
One of the highest in the country. In my neighborhood, an average home, 4 beds 2 1/2baths, is 1.6 million which equates to 2 plus after bidding offers.
that is what tariffs are for...we're making chinese products (imports) expensive, comparable to domestic's. it's going to steer china's marketing strategy when americans rather buy their own products. it could bankrupt manufacturing companies due to lack of sales and high taxes...and we're talking about billions of dollars. from an economic stand point it is a good marketing strategy on Trump...china's dependency on US market is higher...they will eventually come to the table and find a resolution.
the recession talk is all wall street bullsh!t talk. they're talking themselves into believing that it will happen, it is actually the opposite...our economy is doing great but the leftist narrative is trying to scare people, a democratic tactic into the 2020 presidential race...it's not going to happen anytime soon, not while trump is still president.
one should look carefully, china has one propaganda and that is to rule the world. they have bought out some african countries, built railways across countries and continents, bought and built ports all over the world, strategically building islands in the south china sea and have a buffet in every city in america! i guarantee you, every house hold in america has something "made in china"...china has made every country dependent on their products, due to low cost and cheap labor. what's more concerning is the amount of money they're making with very little taxation. putting tariff on china means, domestic products will have equal share in the market, better built quality, promoting more demands, increasing domestic jobs and companies, which in turn will raise our economy. if trump was smart, he would ban all farming and agricultural sales to china...chines e people would be force to eat their own poisonous food...they would cave in so fast.
can you count up to $530 billion? yes, that is how much US is importing goods from China. when we import this much goods, it makes our (american) products looks like crap and expensive...wh en actually "made in china" products are the real cheap things (poor quality). with no tariffs imposed, it will make america more dependent on china products, hence the chinaman has been, is and will be making billions with little to no taxation. we are china's biggest consumer, when we impose tariffs, it will hurt their economy more than ours, that is why you see china wanting to get back to talks and seek a resolution.
i have no problem people relying on government assistance, however, the problem is staying and relying on it, forever (generation after generations). understand that SNAP has an income limit, when a person who's able to make more but decides to stay under cap for the free benefits, they're setting themselves up for failure (being totally dependent on the service). there will be no growth for that person and the family, due to limited income. they're always going to be in subsidized housing, which is often in a less desirable location to live, the ghetto (that environment creates thugs and having kids exposed to criminal activity leads them no where but back to being dependent on welfare - a repeating cycle). But what is most important to understand is, when one is heavily dependent on government assistance, they have no control over their livelihood. the most deplorable thing is, there will be those who will abuse and/or take advantage of the system when they don't need it (*cough -hmgrock*) and that is a lot of wasted tax money.
I would ask theking for a fact check...but he's only a FATchecker...h owever, i was able to obtain some data/info from this site: checkyourfact. com
"Whites make up the largest share of food stamps and Medicaid recipients, but as a share of the U.S. population, they utilize proportionally less than other ethnic groups.
.....
Non-Hispanic whites, however, accounted for 61 percent of the U.S. population in 2016, so they utilized food stamps proportionally less than their share of the population. Blacks made up 12 percent of the population, but 25.6 percent of all recipients in 2016. Hispanics accounted for 18 percent of the population and 17.2 percent of all recipients."
so in essence, we've (hmong) been here for almost half a century, when more than 50% of our people are on welfare (SNAP), and more than 50% of those 50% are young bucks like hmgrock and still living on welfare...it is a shame.
sorry but i am too proud to beg. while young, the family was on government assistance, those food stamps booklet was my ca$h money. just because your family lived on it, doesn't mean you should either....blac k folks and those lazy folks are prime example, generations of welfare recipients and that's ashame.
Baker should make the post season this year.I'd say as far as the Divisional Round.
