    Start asking people how it's going to do that. They're either going to have no idea whatsoever or they're going to say something so batshit wild that it will make a truly great post here

    Joe Biden gave me this rock and now I don't have to worry about all the tigers. NPR said so.

    Hey dudes. I've been in a voluntary news blackout for a few months now so I could mentally recuperate. Can someone give me the bullet points on this inflation reduction act? Not the first post I've seen criticizing it so I'm curious.

        I do think they are going to spend a bunch of money pursuing robotics, only to realize too late that you will still always need at least one person per machine.

    One of the biggest furniture manufacturers in my region closed up shop over the weekend and left a note on the gate for employees arriving to work at 7am that said everyone gets today off, and every day after today. All of the three plant facilities employed about 1000 people.

    That's gotta be from some lib who wouldn't know industry if it kicked him in the nuts.

    I assure you, the messaging about how great the economy is is not working on the two thirds of the country living paycheck to paycheck.

    We are in a huge period of consolidation and monopolization. While certain individual businesses are doing well, it is because their competitors went under and they are eating into their left over demand. What happens when they can't expand anymore and the profit growth dries up? Well, we all know what happens.
