America Is Already Great Innit Mates
KhunLA replied to Lewie London's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Are you a US citizen and or live in the USA ? Guessing you are with the username 'BLM F'em' -
That's not deflecting, that points out his motive, a Kentucky Senator, taking care of his constituents. Exactly what he should be doing, his job. Although, short sighted when it comes to the future and security of the USA, since dependent on other countries. As if covid supply chain issues didn't point that out. But great talking points come elections ... "I voted against tariffs, as it hurt our auto industry" To not know why he is against tariffs, just points out your ignorance. Politicians don't do anything without a reason, and it's usually self serving. Wake up to reality, politician care about one thing ... getting reelected.

America Is Already Great Innit Mates
KhunLA replied to Lewie London's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Maybe MAGA should be ... MAAA ... Make America Affordable Again USA is great, if you already own your final home, and can still afford the RE taxes, and manage your health. Or your income is $100,000 a year as a single person. $200k if married & $300k if wanting children ... -
With that, auto tariffs, do you really think Rand cares about the USA, or just (see below) just to protect Kentucky's auto manufacturing ... All these years of auto makers exporting parts manufacturing for more profit margin, is coming back to bite the auto industry on the butt. Where were the votes to have tariffs in place before manufacturing went overseas ?
-
Tariffs are good for the USA, unless of course, you don't 'buy USA'. Lack of manufacturing is why the USA is in the state it is. Why CN is blowing by as a 1st world country, while USA is slipping further & further behind. Just look how low tech and or expensive the auto market is there. Few options of the better vehicles TH has on offer. Along with affordable solar systems to give you independence of the monopolies. Not being on the grid or having to buy petrol is true FREEDOM. If not 'buying USA', then don't complain about the economy, less jobs, higher taxes, less state & federal services supplied, and the crappy roadways. Live with your choices ... Those younger and or planning to live in the USA, need to get on board, or things are simply going to get worse. Som nam naa

He can do that, but it won't hold, since executive order. This might explain how he can that, but, if anyone challenges, they'd probably win. Did he actually impose any new tariffs ? I don't follow that closely or care, since I don't live in USA. https://www.cfr.org/report/tariffs-trading-partners-can-president-actually-do

I agree with what Paul (Rep Senator) is saying ... BUT ... Trump is not raising tariffs, he is negotiating trade deals with the threat of raising tariffs. Quite a difference. And trade deals signed, have to be approved by Congress. He knows this, so once again, it just proves the corrupt 535 career politicians are against anything Trump does. They simply don't want Trump derailing their 'gravy train'.

McDonald's suffers worst U.S. sales decline since 2020
KhunLA replied to placeholder's topic in Political Soapbox
Spot on. What use to be an entry level, first job experience (now career), paying minimum wage (fed) of <$8.00, has doubled. Those places that relied on late teens, retirees, earning a bit or supplementing their in , with unskilled, low salaries to be competitive, no longer can be competitive, when covering overhead. That snowballed to other skilled business that started at more than minimum wage, and increased with your knowledge, training and certification, also had to raise their wages to get employees. Apply to learn a trade, with job that offers $10 or $12 to start, and you think why bother, when I can flip burgers for $15, now $17. Short sighted, but when young & dumb. It's a good thing salaries went up, but for unskilled, non career positions is a bit silly. All that adds to inflation. Now that you earn more money, we can charge more the basic living needs. Thank Biden & Dems ... AI Overview Learn more McDonald's announced it would raise wages at its company-owned restaurants, with the average hourly wage increasing to $13, and some locations reaching $15 an hour later in 2021. The company's plan was for average hourly wages to reach $15 by 2024. Additionally, the entry-level wage for new employees was increased to a range of $11 to $17 per hour -
Damn you Trump ...

I can't remember last time I had anything from McD, as they really are too inconsistent (hot / cold). You really do have to special order any sandwich if you want it to be hot. Or pay attention to what is made and sitting in the rack. Plus for Burger King, as Whoppers are reheated every time, and the charring puts them a level above. Still need a Double Whopper to taste the meat though. KFC's Zingers & Wing Zaps, can bit hit & miss, but still better than McD. Can't recall last time I had any chain fast food, except Pizza Co, when having 2 for 1 promo. The price is just too silly when compared to a meal at ma/pa restaurant, or even a nice cafe. Had a lovely Lamb Massaman the other day at comfy cafe, and cheaper the most options at above mention chains. https://aseannow.com/topic/1304478-what-did-you-have-for-breakfast/page/27/#findComment-19775356 Even cheaper was a Chicken Massaman from ma/pa shop, 60 baht for thigh, piece of tater & roti. Got 4 take aways, for later at the house. Both places more delicious. No reason to eat at chains. -
The EverMaskers - “The people who may never stop masking”
KhunLA replied to Red Phoenix's topic in Covid/Vaccine
If on Thai roads quite a bit, and smog season, then I can understand it. As getting stuck behind vehicles, especially diesels is no joy. Thankfully traffic not bad in our semi rural area & small town. But when stuck at a traffic light, it really sucks when on the scooter. But for protection from bacteria or viruses ... -
Accident Buriram: Man Killed by Lightning While Riding Motorcycle to Farm

Unlikely since a 'lite rain' at the time. That steel sidecar and possibly being the highest thing in the area, on the road probably didn't help any. -

I started within the last year taking Creatine. Not so much for muscle gain, but atrophy. As mentioned above, I take it more for brain health than muscles loss. A couple current studies showed good stuff. -

Yep, in USA, use to be 28% of income. Until Clinton & bankers started giving the loans away. Then sold to 2nd market, then mixed in with funds, till the scam was exposed, and the brokers and bank stock holders got bailed by obama, for getting him elected, along with speaking engagements. The rest is history, and now multi millionaires. "more taxes will solve everything" ... and the band played on -

Spot on ... 👍 Geez, I thought their business platform was common knowledge ... I guess not 😎 I'd explain it to you, but you'd doubt it was true and ask me for a links. I'm sure you can find it yourself. Google is your friend.
