    This is what I find so hilarious about our DT posters who rag on aggy. Oh, so you have identical beliefs concerning economics, race, religion, education, taxation, politics, and social issues as aggy,

    You know, I did things the right way. People said I should save for my son's education, so I saved for my son's education. Started a 529 because people said it was the right way. I didn't choose anyth

We don't disagree on much.  Where I am at, the average Walmart shopper is not looking for a dopamine hit.  The average Walmart shopper is shopping there because they have to. Their wages are flat relative to inflation, but their housing is rapidly getting more and more expensive as relatively wealthy outsiders (I'm one of them) pay inflated prices divorced from what the local economy would dictate what a house on the hill built by people with real skills would cost.

 

I noted that the disadvantaged are not part of this, but I think you are underestimating the average Walmart customer. Or just extrapolating what you see to a bigger world. There’s plenty Wallys in affluent areas too. But I mean say Target if you want. Or Amazon or Temu in the modern world, it's all the same phenomenon. Shopping Malls back in the day etc etc...

My wife works for a wine supplier/distributor.  Their largest (by far) portfolio is from Italy.  They're fucked.  But the owners are Trumpers, so maybe this belongs in the Leopards thread.

Why doesn't Trump just say the IRS isn't going to collect any income taxes at all? 

We need some clarity on when ‘Murrica was great. If it’s 1956, the DJIA closed just under 500 that year. At the rate we’re going we’ll be “great aagain” right about the end of the year.

Because some chumps like me will file their taxes faithfully anyway I guess.  Someone has to pay for TFG's new Tesla.

I’d gladly accept a second mortgage if it meant that cocksucker and his ghouls were out of our lives.

trump tanking the US defense industry would be damn impressive, even for that idiot

It wouldn’t be a Trump presidency of I didn’t find myself at the goddamned HEB panic-buying some commodity as it gets cleaned off the shelves. At least it’s champagne this time and not toilet paper.

Well sure. I love HEB. 

But also like buying from the farmers market and local producers.

It is ok to have regional variation and flavor. 

It's actually preferred. 

Corporate farming and agriculture has been on an amoral and unsustainable trajectory. International corporate farming and agriculture and industry takes it to 11. 

Some of you liberals have totally the lost the beat cause orange man bad.

BREAKING: Delta’s CEO just admitted that the economy is breaking down in real time because of Donald Trump.  Airlines are slashing forecasts and flights are emptying out. This is horrible.

I guess sorry that your iphone that provides you with access to all the information available to humanity instantaneously may cost you $3000 instead of $1500 cause it isn't produced in a factory in china where they have to line the exterior with nets to keep suicidal people from jumping off the roof.

Is the shipping from Napa cost prohibitive? I got some extra allocations that I am looking to shed next year if you are interested.

But  only kind of... like sort of regional variation...if it works... 

So where can I find out when my local iPhone manufacturing facility opens and I can buy local?

Hopefully sooner rather than later. Requires a certain amount of consumer resiliency certainly.

Teams and facilities to expand in Michigan, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada, Iowa, Oregon, North Carolina, and Washington

This is what y'all have been reduced to. Total clown shit. 

Apple bringing over some of their current factory conditions certainly wouldn’t be part of the deal. Especially with reduced government oversight.
