            i know one conservative guy that loves that ****. One time his kids even thought it was funny to spray it at each other like a squirt gun and he only laughed about it. Claims it's "harmless to people and animals because it interferes with photosynthesis". He buys generic concentrated glyphosate at farm supply stores so he can make tons of it.

              They should have chickenpox parties with it. The whole extended family. Maybe put it in the chemtrails over the red states.

                    And after refunds, the IRS collected about $93 billion more from individual American taxpayers than it did in 2017. Interestingly, that number stands close to the tax break amount that corporations received from the TCJA in 2018. Last year, big businesses paid $91 billion less in taxes than they had in 2017, prior to the new law’s passage.

                      Can someone (or lots of someones) refresh my memory about the Great Recession of '08.

                      Specifically, were there multiple news outlets and as much virtual ink spilled over "recession indicators" like I have seen in the last month? I feel like there really wasnt, maybe only at CNBC / Business Insider / WSJ.

                      Correct me if I'm wrong on this too, but it seems like the concensus when the fall happened in December 2007 was "Let the new guy deal with it," "Sink or swim moment for the Rookie," and here Trump is that drunk driver telling his buddies he's okay to drive while doing 80 down the freeway ignoring every goddammed warning light and caution sign saying "bridge out."

                          Here's the thing, you could be in the middle of the strongest bull market ever seen (growing economy), and there will always be negative indicators found somewhere. Some analyst will state that it spells doom and gloom for the world. We've had mixed indicators out there for most of the year, and some see those as the apocalypse coming within the next week while others see them as a longer-term issue.

                          The problem we have now is that this morning we saw the T-bond slip below the T-bill for yield. That's a bad sign, universally seen as one, not just by some crackpot on a USCHO thread. It means that the market sees there to be less volatility and greater economic security in the long-term than in the short-term. Trouble's a brewin'. The DOW just shed 600pts since that yield inversion took place, that's more than a 2% drop in market valuation. This one cannot be ignored by anybody with a scintilla of economic sense. The POTUS will blame Steve Jobs.

                              No, I meant Steve Jobs, he's the guy that creates jobs for all of the US.
