I lost my sales job with that Chinese company a few months back due to the trade war. I'd wager I'm about the only one on the board that has been directly impacted. Has cost me $50k+ in lost income. My thoughts? F' em. Stick the screws to those lying, cheating, stealing bastards. Some of us will feel some pain. More so than others. But you can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs. On the Chinese side, they are HURTING something fierce. WAY more than we are. Way, way, way more. Good.
That being said, I did get a new job with a good ol' local & American consulting firm and upped my base by $25k. So I have that going for me. Which is nice.

The Chinese may be hurting but there are millions more Chinese than Americans like you. We import way more from China than they inport from the US.

Coming from the unemployment line, there are jobs frickin' everywhere. I interviewed with about a dozen companies and everyone is hurting for qualified employees. HR teams can't hire fast enough. Turned down a VP gig because I felt there was something better out there and parlayed that opp into that additional $25k. I'm going to keep looking too because you never know when some desperate schmucks might offer additional $100k+ or more.
I'd normally say something about Evo here, but I won't waste my time.

The Chinese may be hurting but there are millions more Chinese than Americans like you. We import way more from China than they inport from the US. Which is why we have the all of the leverage. It's not about our exports, it's about our imports. I've lived and breathed this and know what's goin' on. Cost, quality and time. You only go to China for cost. Time and quality are found in America. Add 10 - 25% in costs and the Chinese competitiveness goes right out the window. Which is why I lost my job. We have been over looking poor Chinese quality and added boat time strictly because the costs were so attractive. Not anymore. Everyone is either onshoring MFG back into the US or going to Mexico, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines et al to gain those costs back. Who gives a chit about those lyin', cheatin', stealin' scumbags. They've made their Commie beds and they can sleep in em'. You ever been to China SHM? Ever worked for them? Have any Chinese friends? If you have, then you'd know what lyin', cheatin', stealin' scumbags they really are.

It's good you're back to paying taxes, Nick. That welfare package for US farmers isn't going to pay for itself. We should probably cut some $$$ from Medicare to help pay for it, too.
It's nice to see you Republicans getting cozy with raising taxes now that Trump is doing it with his trade war. Plus the new found ability to ignore the debt - you're just like Democrats now.
lol

In the meantime Mayor Petey Buttplug appeared on Fox News, which gave Trump a hearty chuckle.
fify Hank, I'm surprised you find his comment funny considering your relationship with Lindsey Graham. You're both in denial and would feel so much better if you came out. Just think Hank, no more hiding your true persona. No more pressure to hide and live in the closet. It would probably change both of your political views as well. Think about it Hank. People already know you're an idiot so what's the big deal with coming out?

lol Not a Republican. And the continually propped up Farmer Welfare Queens can go fvck themselves. I'm all for letting some fields go through secondary succession. More native species, biomass and healthier soils. Less herbicides and pesticides in our food, soil & ground water. More non-GMO, non-growth hormone, non-antibiotic infested animals for us to harvest. If a farmer or two goes broke from the trade war and secondary succession occurs, so be it. Survival of the fittest. If I have to pay more in taxes and at the regisiter, so be it. I want China crushed, driven before us and to hear the lamentations of their women. Neither party has anything to crow about regarding our taxes or debt. Both suck balls. It would be cool if we cut off the illegals though. At least the Farmer Welfare Queens are actual citizens. It's true that I have a hierarchy of assholes and illegals are very near the top. Top 10 at least and my list includes Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot & The Boz.

Trump's Approval Rating Hits Highest Point In Two Years President Trump's job approval rating is the highest it's been in two years, boosted by voter optimism about the economy, according to the latest Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll. The survey found that 48 percent approve of the job Trump is doing, compared to 52 percent who said they disapprove. That’s up from 45 percent approval in March. The last time the president's job approval rating reached 48 percent in the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll was in June of 2017. Trump appears to be getting a lift from the economy, with a record 62 percent approving of his approach to employment and 59 percent approving of his handling of the economy. While only 39 percent of voters said the country is on the right track, 51 percent said the economy is heading in the right direction. Seventy-one percent of voters said the economy is very strong or somewhat strong. https://thehill.com/homenews/administrat...nt-in-two-years Clean sweep coming in 2020....
