LA County ports expect roughly 40% drop in traffic as Trump's tariffs continue

Yea that’s why I’m paying more attention to investments now. Being in healthcare, I can’t lie, even through covid, I was fine. Certain industries/fields are insulated from these tough moments. Trump is wreaking so much havoc that even ppl who are usually able to weather storms are going to feel this.

They talking about fukking up Medicaid…. that can and will affect the medical industry. At the very least it’s gonna flood the market as rural hospitals close and their staffs have to move to the suburbs or cities for work.

That’s ignoring the fact motherfukkers on the boonies ain’t gonna have hospitals.

Exactly, now imagine if little Timmy household goes from two incomes to one or from one to none, or the trust fund was based on bonds?

No one is safe from catching a Trump stray. He isn’t governing he is fukking up. As more time goes on more people will catch strays.

Yeah no doubt, but again, there are always going to be people who shine and rise while many people will be much worse.

Times like this basically only create a wider gap between haves and have nots.

That was the danger of it. People doing bad have a much harder time getting out of a tougher situation than those who have less resources than before, but a decent amount of resources already.

It’s gonna gut the middle and lower class, just like he did during his first term.

Exactly.

That’s why it was such a mistake for realistically about 90% of the population.

Out of 20 people that one person will get through it because they were always a stellar A-student type, so will another but that 2nd person will have been thinking “This was so much harder than it needed to be”.

Everyone else is basically saying “This fukking sucks”.

Buy toilet paper now.


Seriously that shyt might run out

Yup, 100%.

People being passive right now are doing the absolute worst thing.

An enormous amount of effort right now will keep someone level or at least from sinking.

The thing is, that same kind of effort however when things are going good that will really pay off for someone.

So you get so much less for more work put in during this time. If you don’t put in that work though, you’ll sink.

People (Both Siders really) thought breaking the system will bring people to the same level, but fail to account that there are “goody two shoes” types who keep doing their homework and raising the ceiling and expectations. They don’t know any other gear.

These are the types that people fail to account for when they think they’ll level the playing field:


Mathematically, there’d always going to be a top and bottom when there’s competition.

Exactly. I have a relative who did this. Bought a house in a certain area to get his kid in a particular district/school.

Graduating with a 4.8GPA and kid was accepted by Harvard. As long as she stays on track…she won’t lose. And with parents like hers, she will win.

There will always be high achievers and families/households that breed them.


MAGA voted to spite themselves and the other average/below average ppl in this nation. Lack of empathy and compassion for their fellow Americans of different backgrounds will bring us to a breaking point.

100000%

Both Siders and anarchists always fail to account that yes while shyt does get wrecked, some people will still be shining at the end of it and it won’t be them.

So they don’t get the “full reset” they were hoping for because they won’t break the spirits of those stellar-types. You get a lower floor and ceiling, but there’s still a gap and it’s wider than before because of voting in garbage. The ceiling falls, but the floor falls much further. That’s all that shyt does.

Even still, that won’t affect our patient/client base, but it’s going to rooooock healthcare.

A lot of clinics will have to turn ppl away or shut their doors.


Americans are literally going to die because of these decisions.

Mmhmm


That’s why I commented months ago that the ppl who see it and get it, are the ones who voted for Kamala and are probably going to weather the storm.

The ppl who voted for Trump didn’t realize that he was going to destabilize the system. EVERYONE will be feeling this.

I think it’s gonna be based more on luck… it’s like surviving through a disaster

It’s not like he hasn’t killed a couple Million Americans before with his bad decisions.

That’s why people are really stupid. Extremely fukking stupid

This really shows the importance of life’s choices honestly. If you’re a good Engineer for example, someone will pay big.

I remember someone once said you can be a convicted criminal but if you have an Electrical Engineering degree, getting a job won’t be a problem - people will hire.

If you’re a traditional Engineer of any field with Military experience, man you have a lotto ticket on top of the Military benefits.

People with skin in the game basically will always be people with skin in the game. It’s like they say: they can’t take away your education from you once you have it.

Like if you’re a Doctor or a Nurse in Healthcare you’re insanely outnumbered regarding patients:nurses ratio. In the United States for example it’s like 1 nurse for every 100 patients and many of those patients will go to the hospital multiple times. In the world it’s like 1 nurse for every 300 people, some countries have 1 nurse for 1000 people. Your job is stressful but it’s rock solid during times when everything else goes to shyt (which means more people doing dumb shyt and landing in a hospital).
