Here is one for you.

I take all predictions with a grain of salt but one major financial institution is predicting another 7% drop before the end of the year.

Birds of a feather---

Just like higher politicians have learned " It's easier to get forgiven for doing things that are illegal, than to get permission to to do them in the first place."

"Heavy equipment accidents are a serious concern in workplaces like construction sites, with OSHA reporting thousands of injuries and hundreds of fatalities annually. These accidents involve a range of incidents, from being struck by heavy machinery to getting caught in moving parts"

This thread is exactly what this forum has become with the usual posters.

Agree, a friend of mine had one done in a KK private hospital for 17,000 3 months ago.

I am sure you are not over 90 years old. Old age and disabilities go hand in hand. 98% of all people in their 90s who lived in a nursing home had a disability and 81% of people in their 90s who did not live in a nursing home also had one or more disabilities. Many who never thought they would live so long have run out their savings. When you are a young lad of 80, it may be well and good to squeeze out another day so you can worry about squeezing out another. A time comes when you can stop worrying about tomorrow.

They will just tell him to lay off the salt. He is 91, He made it this far, let him enjoy the next 10 or so years.

I had a friend who got a job in a meat processing plant. He didn't last 3 days. He told me the work wasn't so bad, it was having to stand in one place for hrs inside a refrigerated room. Still a lot better than working outside in a field or on a roof in 105 degree weather. So as jobs Americans won't do--it is one of the best.

Some of us have simply grown out of it. Smoked a lot in my younger days. But anything can become boring after a while.

How would anyone know? It's not like they wear arm bands or register.

He continued "Our farmers are being hurt badly by, you know, they have very good workers, they have worked for them for 20 years,” he said. “They’re not citizens, but they’ve turned out to be, you know, great. And we’re going to have to do something about that. We can’t take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don’t have maybe what they’re supposed to have, maybe not.”

A Maybe because a well known hotel owner who happens to live in the Whitehouse just said “Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace,”

I didn't give you a downvote, but your post is the reason we have them. Adding nothing to the topic, just using it as a reason to sling mud at a group you don't like.

Every decision you make, no matter how small, opens a gate to heaven or hell. Choose wisely.

They tried once The Winter War https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_War I don't think any attack on Russia would involve tanks rumbling across the European plains. Modern warfare has almost made the tank obsolete sitting duck.

Made up reason. Why didn't they make a big stink about Finland joining NATO after being non-aligned for years. A country with a longer border and a more powerful army.

Except Russia? What you are saying is that Russia is risk-free to start using nukes but all others are?

I have a built-in but bought an Otto to help speed up production. (My wife makes bake goods that are sold during the holidays). I am unable to get an even result from one batch to the next. I can see where that baking tin might help with bread.

Produced more and more by machine.

Pretty much the same reason John Deere decided to move one of its plants to Mexico. John Deere is a global marketer. Building in the US is too expensive to compete in the global market. They can still build and compete in the US market since the tariffs increase the cost for their competition but then the US farmers have to pay a higher price for the same tractor that could be bought elsewhere.

You mean these workers?

I do the same, and with some, I think, what is the point? They will just start name-calling and drop the whole subject that was being discussed.
