Buffett vs Trump

And you don't realize that a pensioner has worked most of his life, contributing to society? That is, besides many millionaires who have made money raping the earth's resources, building golf courses where woods should be, and kicking people out of their homes. How many super rich are actually doing anything for the world besides taking jobs away from people who need employment? How many have been fired thinking they are not needed? Where will they get money to provide for their families?

 

So it's all Trump's fault? Got it.

Private sector creates jobs but stupid leaders add on red tape. A good leader will help the private sector hire people.

 

That's why some people ie Obama had high unemployment.

 

Inflation is driven by all spending and world events. A stupid leader ie Biden will spend to much adding to inflation.

 

Glad I can educate you. Nobody else has in 70 years.

Presidents aren't hiring people for everyday jobs. How is Trump making jobs for the average man? You need to read all of the link and not dismiss it, like you do most of what people here post. A skimmer never learns. You haven't educated anyone here but act like a gnat we can't get rid of. And I'm 68.

Look up the job figures. Get off Wiki and MSNBC.

Where the hell do you get that from what I said? You really aren't too bright, and a full fledged narcissist to boot. Trump is but one of many of the super rich that have taken advantage of others to get ahead, like many other developers, or didn't you know how development works?  What has his money done to help the average man? Hiring a caddy perhaps?

I did say Wiki was just one of the ways to research things, and you believing Wiki is all opinions shows how little you know, and how close minded you are. When did I mention MSNBC? They are just people reporting news, just like thousands of others. Are they all reporting fake news, and those that support trump telling things how they are?

"narc", is that Australian for something...........?  🤔

It's a description of people who have a disorder. Everyone has narc tendencies, but minor ones, like taking a few selfies but some are raised to be narcissists by abusive or neglectful parents or caretakers and there is no cure. many end up being world leaders as Trump has shown. He is what's called a malignant narcissist. One who thinks they know everything, treats women with disrespect and uses them, and even when proven wrong, will always be in denial to hide that low self esteem ,like a few that post here..............https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20366662

narcissists

People who overuse this word or the fascist word have something wrong with them. Typically they are miserable leftists. Often young college students but can be older men and women. I have no doubt you are miserable in Thailand. Hence you lash out online at people who disagree with you and call them narcs when you are projecting your own issues.

I mostly agree. However, tariffs for Chinese imports make sense due to dumping prices and heavy subsidies by Beijing. Of course the tariffs for Canada and Mexico are mostly based on politics (illegal immigration) and the drug-trade, so they don't make sense, and are counter-productive.

Tell that to the many psychiatrists that have studied millions of mentally ill people who were raised by morons who didn't know how or didn't care about their children, and why the world has most of it's problems today. Calling people leftists is prejudiced. There is nothing wrong with people wanting equality.I don't lash out against anyone who isn't attacking me and calling me an idiot because I proved them wrong before, they don't understand the topic or are so one sided they can't see the truth in others lies. Everyone has issues. Some are mentally ill and need help and some can't be helped, so they continue their attacks because it's what they learned growing up. The more you speak, the more you uncover your true self, so it might be better to just go away, because by now you must have noticed there are only 2 backing you up, and they're Trump supporters also so that's understandable, at least as far as politics are concerned.

Mexico has low tariffs, Canada is higher. Some tariffs make sense. Like for like.

Maybe. But what did high tariffs do for America and the world 95 years ago? And the financial markets (investors) seem to agree with Buffett.

US currently has low tariffs. Some nations have less and are doing worse. Free trade means dumping of cheap imports and loss of local jobs. America imports lots of goods and is vital to the health of Mexico and Canada. Tariffs are not half as bad as the critics say.

Is that from one of your polls or is it another assumption added to your list? Let me repeat. You don't know me, nor anyone else here, and I'm thinking you really don't know much about anyone, because a person that assumes like you do would have no long term friends, picking them apart like all narcissists do to bolster their own low self esteem.

Facts. 6 years no days won. Living an isolated life in Isaan. You admitted to being bored. You write long posts to heal your emotional problems.

Days won? Is this a competition? Where have you won anything? Many expats here are bored, although they won't admit it. Goes with the territory. Assuming I have emotional problems while you call others idiots shows it's you that needs attention. problem is, again, there is no cure.

It’s fascinating, in a rather tragic way, to watch Harrisfan, so utterly intoxicated by an online forum, that he's lost all self-awareness. When you strip away the smug, hostile one-liners and hollow antagonism, what’s left? A person who spends nearly every waking hour, posting over two thousand times per week, desperately seeking even the smallest acknowledgment of their own existence from an anonymous chat messaging site. It’s not about discussion, engagement, or contributing anything of value. It’s an addiction, plain and simple. The endless stream of posts isn’t a choice anymore; it’s a compulsive, obsessive feedback loop, one that has completely overtaken and reduced his life to a deeply troubled existence of mental illness.

 

At this point, it’s not even about the content of his posts. Whether they’re being demeaning, nasty, bitter, or pretending to be performatively disinterested, the only thing that really matters to him is the response. He can’t function without it. It’s the same psychological mechanism as any other dependency, just another hit of dopamine from every reply, every emoji, every moment where someone acknowledges that he exists, even if it’s in the form of the usual disgust he receives back from most other members. This isn’t participation in a community. It’s a loop, an endless cycle of needing to be seen and heard, to be responded to, to feel something, anything, in a life that clearly has nothing else going for it.

 

The most telling part? He doesn't even deny it. He can’t. Instead, he deflects, minimizes, and pretends it’s all just a bit of harmless fun, all while his post count continues to tick up into the thousands week after week. The forum has banned him multiple times for his toxic and unwarranted attacks against others, yet he crawls back under new accounts within minutes, unable to break free, unable to let go. And deep down, he knows it. There’s no escape for him, no real control. A serial troll run amok to the highest level. This place owns Harris/Susan/BigNok now. It’s not a pastime for him, it’s a prison. And the saddest part is, he built his cage of isolation all by himself.

You were quoting a range of 137 -143 not so long ago. Going by the infantile nature of your posts, you'd probably be lucky to make 85.

I do not remember you catching me in a number of lies, but you would call me a liar regardless of what I said, unless it was something negative about Trump.
