If it comes down to that

another move of the goal post

it basically measures willingness to spend

no consumerism, bye bye US economy

are we there yet? I'm actualy asking because you seem to know your stuff

It seems these idiots do not have the emotional intelligence we try to enforce in toddlers to recognize when a mistake was done, make apologies and rectify... instead they quadruple down and keep pushing as if their idea is now even more genius than before.

This is how we end up with Trump literally destroying the US economy while people wonder "is it outrageous stupidity or intergalactic 17 dimensional chess?"

We have never (to my knowledge) lived in a real life, non analogy, of the Emperor has no clothes

What's with the bs headlines?? there is no "may be", they already did

It's OK because trump's tariffs are basically going to make food so cheap it might as well be free, right?... what do you mean everything is going up in price?! WTF is going on here?!!!!

Even if what Tesla says is true, that’s a pretty sloppy way to run a business.

Correct. This has been the excuse circulated around from day one. However, given the slumping sales of Teslas since last year, it still sounds like they basically had 6 months or more worth of rebates to process which sounds incredibly shady... how many businesses you know leave millions of dollars on the table for months?!

Most likely they came up with the plan while people thought Trump was not going to do the crazy stuff he kept talking about...

Good... the idiots that listen to this idiot already will vote PP... but those who were not sure PP was Maple MAGA get another bit of proof

hmmmm best I can do is "get fucked yahu"

Totally fair question.

Basically, I don't call shots in my organization, I'm a worker bee (best I could call myself is a "specialist worker bee hehehe) I can only work on what is assigned to me and our people are strict on that. Sometimes I get called into meetings as a technical advisor just to let people know if what they are dreaming sounds feasible but even those, if they start to take off, my bosses intervene and demand a project is actually created and put through the paces before it can be assigned to someone.

With that in mind, if I deem a project, task, inquire BS and do not work on it but I am wrong, the interested party (usually my boss) would come back to me to get status updates, ETAs, etc. Therefore, if I deem a project BS and it is not, I would eventually get in trouble.

What usually happens is that my boss would come and instead of asking about the status on the BS project, they would tell me to hold on or provide me new specs which may not be BS or simply to tell me the project sponsors dropped it.

go to school in America

Americans: wake me up when it's a 7 alarm fire"

I have an impeccable nose for work BS.

When a new initiative or proposal or project or just a simple inquiry comes my way, I seem to have a really good instinct as to how feasible/likely this project will come to fruition. BS projects get tossed into a corner, Non-BS projects get attention.

99.9% of the time, the BS projects are cancelled or get completely rectified into non-BS projects before I had to waste a single calorie on them

90% of the time, the non-BS projects are actually developed or, if cancelled, it's due to forces outside of our control

The consequence of this "power" is that I am rarely busy since I don't waste time on the BS and I get solid work done as I can move the time to the non-BS stuff... 23 years into my career I have never been late for a delivery or caught with no progress on a request

This is the type of alternative thinking we need to solve all our problems

very small... I mean, can you imagine the accuracy needed for a bullet to find his brain?

I believe this... however, in true Trump fashion, he is going about the stupidest possible way.

Maybe I am underestimating global greed but trump has made clear the USA is 100000% unreliable; what is the longer term outlook now for defense contractors internationally? Do they think they will continue to sell critical weapons, infrastructure, tech, pretty much anything with strategic value in the international market?

I have no idea what point you are trying to make here

meaning i'm not sure how well things would go against an anemy that is not fighting with smuggled 25 year old equipment and unable to strike usa territory

hmmm I am increasingly believing how ineffective the USA would be against a real enemy... the USA loves to chicken hawk on third world countries on the other side of the planet... but now trumpf is poking China hard... WWIII is heating up
