What's new

Who would like to answer this difficult question?

CORRECTION: The Donald claimed that they were finding up to 10 terrorists per day in the caravan. BTW does anyone know what happened to the caravan? For 8000 people to just disappear is kind of spooky.
They ran into a wall, and decided to go home!!!!............ But even if you only found one! That's one too many! And what about the next caravan? And the one after that?
 
I got 50% from your buddy Zom. I'm including all illegal immigrants. I said - you might stop some of an already decreasing number of illegals, but a wall along the Mexican border will do nothing to stop the faster growing number of illegals, unless they are stupid enough to fly from Bangalore to Mexico City and come into the US from the south. So if you take the number of increasing illegals from Asia and Eastern Europe and factor in the number of Mexican illegals that the wall would stop, I don't think you'd stem the problem by even 50%
Oh! From Zom! .........So you are quoting him?....... I do believe he said "if", but you put it out there as a true number. He is correct in stating that a wall will not stop 100% of the illegals. And no one is claiming it will! But no one can put a hard figure on what percentage it will detour! Not Zom, and certainly not you!!!

Companies got a tax cut and did a trillion (with a t) dollars worth of stock buybacks. That's going to boost the stock price up for a bit...but the repurchases are done...now it's back to business as usual. Remember last year when companies were handing out $1,000 bonuses like it was halloween candy? And that was BEFORE the tax cut. Nothing this year.

Trump supporters won't admit it, but the tax cut failed. You were promised that the money saved by corporations would create new jobs or increase the pay of existing jobs. From about 2010, most companies gave the obligatory 3% raise. Then we got a tax cut and companies, flush with new cash gave....a 3% raise.

Hope you didn't see the CBS evening news tonight 1-4-19.....wages up...jobs out the yang.....Dow on fire.....Trump...Trump...Trump

Got more than the two good paying jobs you posted? Funny thing about the Dow....it's on fire one day, and crashing in flames the next. When the shutdown over the wall starts ending paychecks for ATC, it could impact private sector Airline employees. But not to worry...there are restaurant jobs out the yang for them. MAGA.

He could provide 100 and it still would not be good enough for you. You see what you want to see.

I totally agree.

I am not interested in COULD. COULD is a word used far too often by the media these days. I am interested in FACTS.

So you haven't seen the CBS News 1-4-19 bit about jobs, wages, Dow and other indicators?

Not surprised.
 
If you can't find any, make some up.

The fact is that if paychecks stop coming to ATC controllers, a good chunk of the American economy will come to a screeching halt. Those who don't look at what COULD happen shouldn't be surprised when it does.
 
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released its December jobs report Friday morning, showing nonfarm employment was up by 312,000, stronger than analysts expected.

The impressive jobs number, along with the Fed signaling patience on rate hikes, shook the stock market loose from its doldrums, with the Dow posting a 747-point gain.

With the December jobs number, President Trump now has two full years of economic performance to compare with his predecessor, President Obama. The two biggest statistical standouts are:

Aug. 5, 1981.

PATCO thought they could bring air traffic to a screeching halt to.

How did that work out?

I'm only saying that if you were an air traffic controller and you were told that you are an "essential" employee, but you were NOT getting paid, would you take advantage of some of your sick days? Trump says he's willing to keep the government shut down for months. How long would YOU work a job if you weren't getting a paycheck? The striking controllers were fired and replaced by new controllers. But you know what? Those new controllers were getting paychecks. Let them fire the controllers who call in sick..I'd love to see an ad for their replacements. "Great opportunity for a high stress position. Salary - none until America is made great again". How many takers do you think they'd get?
