Most people dont see most things coming just like how the economy is barely firing at 0.9 to 1.2% GDP when you remove Food and Energy.

There are still 90+million Americans unemployed same as when Trump took office... so strange...

How is it that they continue to publish 3.2% employment rate ?

I just dont get it and plenty of economists are sounding the alarms.

Something is seriously wrong.

Yeah, there is something seriously wrong in the entire world, and the wrong people are sounding the alarms about a symptom, not the cause. Economists are sounding alarms because they don't have a clue what is really happening in this world.

It’s 2020 Blade and nothing has changed...
Over the weekend thousands more were processed through the border and released into the interior.
100,000 more admitted in January, like clock work on track for 1.2million more in 2020...nothing has changed... You are being replaced and erased.

These release parties are funded and heavily assisted by NGO’s and your local church, pastor, charities right under your noses.

Would you like to travel to the resettlement zone in your area ?

Not an apocalypse. Just thinning out the dinosaur companies which can't adapt to changing market conditions. Sheesh! This is what happens when your company leaders have no vision for the future and become complacent in the way they do business. This has always been the case. There is nothing new in all this.

Sears was one of the leading mail-order catalogs for decades. How could they not see nor make the t***sition to internet marketing? The problem with experts is that they know more and more about less and less and often have no vision for the future. It doesn't take a crystal ball. But the big lumbering cumbersome dinosaur companies will be left in the dust and that is good for the rest of us because the companies that replace them will be more efficient and cost effective.

I*****l i*********n is just another symptom, it is happening all over the world. Until you can identify the cause, you will never find a solution to the problem.

All the causes have been identified, but I’m not by any measure going to get into it here with you.
You can go to all the topics over the years and read the causes till your eyes fall out.

Trump hasn’t made a scratch and nothing in policy shaping has been reversed.
Congress is hijacked by criminal imposters in both parties past and present and Trump has full authority to use the I**********n act to clean them out and begin Reversals of the Unconstitutional bills, laws, acts, codes they’ve passed.

There is only one cause. You won't find it digging into politics.

I never said brick and mortar will go away! I stated that big lumbering companies can't respond quickly enough to market conditions and trends. Sheesh!

I am beginning to believe you are the one feeding the crap to everyone. As soon as you are faced with a difficult question or someone disputes your comment and you don't have an answer, you sign out.

You may be right, I don't know. But I'll engage the topic and see what comes out in the wash. My opinions are just that, and they are not carved in stone. I am happy to consider reasonable responses that are thought out and can be supported with verifiable evidence. I don't claim to have answers to everything. I am just trying to make sense of the world and understand where we are currently headed.

Went in for their supposedly closing sale! Everything was supposedly 30% off! Their prices are outrageous! That’s why they’re closing! Bet they are going to sell online! Prices have a lot to do with it!!!!!
