That's an interesting opinion on a forum for an escort review board - on a discussion about USA politics. Are you implying that we shouldn't discuss the ramifications of USA political decisions throughout the world resulting in vandalism of Tesla's? An obvious indication that many have...

You're correct. I am full of it. If by "full of it" you mean righteous indignation and contempt for Donald Trump. My certainty is that the USA has had deplorable immigration laws for a long time,.. intentionally so. The USA has always wanted immigrants.. to do the crappy jobs that Americans...

I guess the bottom line is your definition of "sick". With the understanding that fantasy is just that... fantasy, and has no real basis more powerful in reality than "wishing".. the moral impact of something occurring that can impact many people or just one, is a meaningless differentiation...

I remember a science fiction episode (I think it was Doctor Who) where the citizens voted and if the vote came out against the politician they got electrocuted.. That's a sweet fantasy.. maybe not as good as torching Tesla's but certainly worthwhile. Watch the orange toad fry.. frizzy hair...

Sick fantasy? They were fantasizing about damaging a car,.. not the owner. Pretty good bet the car is insured. Sentiment would be better expressed by fantasizing about something serious happening the Elon or Trump's financial assets.. something on the order of forced bankruptcy, but I...

The rescue plan was in motion before the 2024 election.. Like the economy the Trump administration is just taking credit for it... they didn't actually develop the plan. If they had it would be a "concept" of a plan not a real plan.

I agree... it's a shame that the right won't stop.. how not one Republican will denounce the harm done by some political moron saying immigrants eat pets... or Nancy Pelosi's husband being beaten with a hammer because of the inflamed rhetoric of certain political. Oh? You were talking about...

So how much of your 5M in index funds lose over the last little while with Trump tanking the stock market?

Hypocrisy. It's "blinking" when Canadian politicians delay retaliation and it's "what?" when Trump does it? You yourself said you wish Trump would stop waffling over on again off again tariffs,... but it's "blinking" when Ford delays retaliation but not Trump.

You say that "I am not attacking you", yet statements like "maybe your reading comprehension isn't up to par" or "you should become a politician" "the financial industry can mean a bank teller" "knowledge is very limited" "you're just playing" etc etc. tells a much different story. Call a...

There's nothing wrong with being pro Trump. Many Americans have valid reasons for why they chose Trump over Kamala.. it's not like voting for any politician is without drawbacks. The important thing is to recognize that support for one political opinion or stance does not mean that you can't...

We all have to make compromises depending on our means, if your current means is sub optimal you need to make a plan to change your situation. I worked in fast food for 8 years when I was younger, I was still able to budget for the things I wanted and save for my goals while going to school to...

The article you posted supports my assertions. Canada imposed tariffs on China - in support of the USA. Now because the USA has started a trade war with China, they are signaling to us that it would be a good idea to remove our tariffs from them to show that we are more willing to trade with...

Whether the extent of the disapproval of Trump's actions is as extreme as suggested by the media publicity is true or not is irrelevant. You cannot deny that there is widespread disapproval. The USA is not subsidizing anything for Canada. You are using Trump talking points without...

I have to disagree with your first point. Exchange rate is affected by a variety of factors but the most applicable are 1. interest rates, 2. National economic performance and 3. Inflation including economic outlook. the point I was making was that In order to keep the exchange rate low the...

Keep in mind that the Canadian government keeps the Canadian dollar low in comparison to the USD to encourage US investment in Canada. It's an incentive not an indicator of economic distress. The exchange rate has very little to do with the economy. Compare the cost of any of the everyday...

A true friend would understand the reasons for tariffs before taking any action against them. A true friend would work with you to enhance the areas of common interest that you have building on existing relationships to strengthen both sides. A true friend doesn't arbitrarily decide that the...

Job is irrelevant. People need to learn to define the things that matter to them and budget appropriately. If this hobby is important to you budget accordingly.

I never said that friends shouldn't put 200% tariffs on products. They absolutely should. Tariffs are an economic tool used by governments to protect parts of their economies from globalization. Every country does it. We selectively protect economic assets to prevent the complete dependence...

You make many valid points but you also have many blind spots where your preconceptions seem to be tailoring your response. Absolutely there are no good options for Canada in a trade war... we're simply going to have to work with the many bad options we have. You're optimistic if you think...
