  10. looks like they were victims of nfl bizzarro week. a week where the dolphins get on a win streak, the jets and the browns both win. the saints lose to the falcons of all teams. happens once a week at least in the season. good on for the dolphins and jets to decide not to suck for a day. things will most likely resume to normal next week lol. lots of upsets this week.
  11. heres the thing about the economy, you gotta look at the whole picture and not just take the unemployment rate and the stock market. a big one to look at is wages. wages for most jobs have remained stagnant since the last recession, while the cost of living has gone up. a good indicator that people are struggling is the polls that shows that a large segment of our population cant cover a $500 emergency. other things to look at is the rising homeless crisis. i know the last 5 plus years in most our major cities has seen a rise in the homeless population. theres tons of reports that show people in some sort of debt, student loan, housing loan, or medical debt all big ones. another big indicator to go by is our gdp rate of growth which has been stuck under 3% for years. tho none of these are really unique to trump since they were also the case during the obama years too. the big economic things that trump affected are that he gave the rich a bigger tax rate, his china tariffs, and his decreasing of the federal rate. the tax break to the wealthy didn't do much to stimulate our economy. in fact they mostly just used that extra money to buy more of their stock instead of creating more jobs. the china tariff is probably his biggest blunder. it was supposed to be a move that showed him being tough on foreign policy but has had more negative effects on our country than it has on china. the biggest loser in this china trade war were farmers. specifically the ones that sold soy beans to china who no longer buy from our farmers. this is why he had to bail them out and even then that wasnt enough. the consumer also loses since companies pass on their higher expenses to us by jacking up the prices on the goods we buy. the fed rate is mainly a move that helps banks by giving them a lower interest rate to pay back the fed when they borrow money. a lower rate when things are supposedly are going good economically is a warning sign that something isnt right. all these moves are designed to keep the economy afloat but may very well have sped up its crash.
  12. are you doing bicept curls with those 100 pound dumbbells? seems like a back killer.
  13. just because something is beyond our understanding doesnt make it chaotic. just means it's beyond our current capacity. tho i really can't say for sure that the universe doesnt operate in chaos. but so far in my experience i can say chaos is not really all that great for us in general.
  14. i disagree. much of of science and math is getting predictable results and being able to replicate.
  15. i made this thread in response to all the protest people had at the time. 3 years has passed, one thing for sure i could say is the fall of our empire has accelerated thanks to trump. not only is the wealth inequality growing but the system has put mankind in peril facing both a climate crisis and other existential threats. conditions are worst for regular people here than they have ever been. a few a you might be lucky enough to have cushy jobs but mostly everyone in the country is struggling. tho a lot of this was true before trump but like i said, things have gotten worse or stagnated for most people since he came into office.
