Chet, we have talked about the "poor" many times. However forget the "poor; do you think Trump cares?? Sorry to say he only cares about himself and how he can score with his "buddies" around him. His principle is an from the "top" down throwing some "breadcrumbs" to the lower level while they themselves on the top benefit the most from their own actions. The only "feeling" this guy shows, is if he does not get what he wants; he does not care about "people" only " power and "money" as well "me " me"

Also not true. Chet Ruminski Wrote: the stock market is at 20k for no reason.
I wouldn't say no reason. Chet Ruminski Wrote: Hate and discontent is growing replacing reason and communication.
Thanks, Donald. Chet Ruminski Wrote: The outrage over immigrants is superseding the results of the immigration problem. Indignation is the overriding emotion because indignation masquerades responsibility. Getting mad is not a solution, it is a waste of energy and an excuse for ignorance.
Again - Thanks, Donald.

CNN)Violent crime is on the rise so far this year in major cities across the US compared to the number of homicides, rapes, robberies, assaults and shootings that occurred in the same cities by this point in 2015, a new report has found. . The Atlantic’s Derek Thompson points out that “in 2016, the film industry is on pace to sell the fewest U.S. tickets per person of any year since perhaps before the 1920s and the fewest total tickets in two decades. U.S. restaurant sales grew in the second quarter at their slowest pace since December 2009. As restaurants start reporting third-quarter results this week, investors should expect to see the pain continue. Check, Please Sales growth at North American restaurants in the second quarter was the slowest since 2009. These are indicators of a declining economy.

Also Robert Gordon's "The Rise and Fall of American Growth." Capital requires constantly expanding growth framed as "new markets." Yet it also requires raw materials from places that are not allowed to develop in the same manner as the center of capital. The system runs into the problem of infinite growth on a finite planet. And as capital freedom requires separating "the economy" from society as a whole thus preventing so-called interference in the economy by democracy. Capital demands unaccountable economic technocrats "run" the economy while government, democracy, stands aside twiddling its thumbs. and those lacking wealth are caught between the forces.

Yes Lonely right on; most people here have not lived under other systems, so they don't know better than "capitalism" as well an "consumption" push as goal and structure, instead of an "happy" non "greedy" satisfied population.
