The US administration has a real hatred for offshoring. So why are they contracting out detention centers to El Salvador? Sheesh, that is a whole bunch of jobs that could be filled by Americans. #trumpsterfire #treason

Do you ever wonder, like me, if Trump still calls him “Little Marco” when they are in the Oval Office? How humiliating.

CBC report on the growing trade war between the U.S. and China, and why we are entering a new period of rising influence and possible change of dominance over the world economic order. Tip of the hat to public broadcasting for a fair discussion. youtu.be/uuO-wvDjSp8?...

If the US administration really wanted to reduce government bureaucracy should they start with the IRS, eliminate the overly complex tax code. Flat tax percentage of 10% for income over $50K, no loopholes, no exceptions. And no overly complicated forms to fill out every April.

Don’t get conned by the CONs. They have no interest in 99% of Canadians.

12 months ago, who would have believed 2017-2021 would be the second worst presidency in the history of the United States? #trumpsterfire

Public service announcement: this is a smish (SMS scam). Not always easy to spot, but some telltale signs: 1. Sender is a Gmail address 2. Phone number is not an 800 3. Phone number not Apple 4. False sense of urgency Enjoy online shopping but be wary of this sort of scam.

CBC headline: “Singh promises more doctors, Carney supports the trades, Poilievre vows to cut red tape” Sounds like the CONs are planning to ask for some help from Musk with their own DOGE plan. Don’t get conned by the CONs. They aren’t really interested in the welfare of 99% of Canadians.

Starting to think people have a very abstract idea of what it might take to “onshore” or “bring jobs home” as if you could just load a shipping container full of jobs and send it on over

Well, not everything is as bleak as it might seem, TLSA stock continues to slide into the zone of reality. But still far above the 52 week low, where the company’s fundamentals say it really should be. They have been trading on promises that simply don’t make sense.

Today’s stronger-than-expected jobs report out of the US is the last of Biden’s positive economy that we had been “suffering” through for the last few years. This will certainly be the last good jobs report under this administration. #trumpsterfire #notwinning

Please can we go back to the terrible days of Biden economics? I know it was terrible but gosh I don’t really deserve this sort of “winning”. #trumpsterfire

Mark highlights by the ugly truth: this administration doesn’t actually care about most Americans.

There are two groups of people: those who understand how tariffs affect basic economics, and those who don’t have a clue. Both groups pay the same tax. But at least one group knows the right people to blame, while the other group simply lashes out with stupid slogans.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.
