Or increase it and use it on education…

The education system here is well funded that’s why every school has a number of playgrounds and the buildings ain’t falling apart.

They wouldn’t none of them are interested in things like policy and inflation

If you don't manufacture much then put tariffs on countries that manufacture lots - will it drive prices up?

Ach it was beneath me. Mea culpa.
It’s been a sobering couple of days.

Just realised that’s a genuine persons account that’s been hacked with that crap.
I’ve reported **** pics previously and it’s been ignored. If they ignore this, child **** links, it’ll make me think twice about continuing here.
I don’t want my account having this crap against it. They obviously have poor security.

In good news I see it’s gone.

Thanks to go to Brin on the millers board who killed the account when I messaged him.

SiBo/his lackeys did sweet F.A.

They probably support Trump as well.

The ironic thing being American companies were the ones that first went to Asia to drive down their costs and that started a stampede of countries like the UK following suit.

His (Trump) wanting to introduce tariffs to protect manufacturing jobs, which are now mainly done by machine anyway.

Inflation was generally lower during his last tenure throughout the whole world and went up due to mainly global events that occurred once he left office.

It has reduced significantly this past while and likely to continue this way.

I doubt any president or leader can control inflation much.

Going to be an interesting few years ahead.

Or s e x ual assaults or the truth.
I daresay he'll come in with a bout of non-interventionist short-termism which will give the rednecks a few dollars more for a while, then when payback comes and the markets stop deciding in the correct manner, he'll blame the immigrants and leave a mess for the next mob.
But 'Murica being 'Murica that's always been the model.....with the UK seemingly keen to adopt a similar socio-economic model.
People can kid themselves all they want about the reasons Rapey won, but it's cos he's not a woman of colour.

Didn’t he increase his share of the vote with Latino’s and blacks. Guess they must be racist as well or are they redenecks ?

No doubt if there was an election in Uk you’d be voting Tory as they have a women of color in charge
