muthafukka i don't know what radio station the show comes on where you live. it's clay travis and his cohost who took over when limbaugh died. i'm sure you can go to whatever website they have and search through the archives.

now i gave you the show i heard the clips on. if that's not enough, sorry and go fukk yourself.
Clay travis...took over for limbaugh. That Rush Limbaugh? Interesting. I really didn't see that coming. You mean a show formerly ran by Rush Limbaugh deflects from Trump's over the top trade war by bringing up Obama, Pelosi and Sanders? I mean what are the odds? Crazy, huh?

I also see why you were slow to tell me. Nice avy by the way. Helps you fit in nicely around here doesn't it?

what's evil about it?

was it evil when manufacturing jobs were leaving this country by the millions because of free trade agreements like nafta, and clinton told all those newly out of work people that they had to go back to school and get tech educations to try and prepare themselves for the new realties of a global workplace? the other day on the radio they were playing clips of pelosi, obama, and bernie sanders talking about the need for tariffs.

it's ugly, but evil isn't the word i'd use. for Black people, it's unfortunate that we weren't better prepared.
Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick was on air over the past 24 hours or so talking about jobs for people "adding the tiny screws" to iPhones or what have you. Before that he was talking about robots.

Go to college to work a non-physical labor job only to be fired because they want you to do physical labor.

:laff::laff::laff:
Hypothetically if said factory jobs existed there would be a number of non labor roles. You’ll still need management, accounting, business analyst, assuming there’d be an automation component so computer science and assiciated tech roles, hr. The problem is those factories don’t exist and likely never will and if they do would take years which you’d have a new president that would repeal a lot of this shyt

In my opinion both are evil, just to different segments of the population. Both Republicans and Democrats supported NAFTA, starting with Reagan and being signed into law by Clinton. It did harm a lot of people in manufaturaring, over time causing decent paying jobs to be lost to foreign countries and also stagnating wage growth for those who still had manufacturing jobs here.

What Trump and his gang are doing is harming the White collar workers who are being kicked out of decently paying jobs and told to retool to work in manufacturing, which already has been dealing with stagnant wages for decades. Also, the US will never regain the competitive advantage it handed off to China and other nations, because the cost of Labor here in the US is still too high compared to the costs in those other nations. Though, as those countries continue to grow economically they will also experience the same problems the US and Japan have experienced too. Companies may then seek other areas where they can get very low wage workers to do the menial manufacturaing jobs to keep their profit margins high.
They already have. We were talking about this over on l2h 10 years ago. There were articles then about activists in china pushing for better working conditions for the people and the chinese govt coming down on them. The very first whisperings of a Chinese Labor Movement, similar to this country's as it industrialized. +-

Let me ask you, what do you think the push is to increase manufactures here the way they're doing it? Do you think it's because the country is getting ready to go into another prolonged period of war, and so there has to be a certain manufacturing capacity in the country?

I don't believe the US is going to regain its competitive advantage either, nor do I think it's meant for it to. If you look at what's been going on at the macro level, you can see where the economies of the east are being built back up at the same time the west is being taken apart. I said years ago over on l2h that the centre of the global economy was going back east, where it has historically been for thousands of years and where most of the planet's population is.

this kinda thing only appeals to, and stands out to, the little fakkits on the board. the kinda little fakkits that run around worried about who daps whose post and who's first in a thread and little c*nt shyt like that. and you posted the stupid emoji to match.

i don't come on here to lie to make a point because, again, that kinda behaviour only appeals to you little fakkits on the board. it was either last thursday or friday on the clay travis and whoever his co-host is show. but i'm sure you can just hit google and find the quotes, unless your aim is to prove i'm lying and if that's the case, by all means go back and listen to the show.

and it's not "whataboutism." it's our present reality caused by the political and economic decisions of the past. but the little fakkits rarely understand that either. too busy playing bloods and crips over white political parties, neither of which gives a damn about you.

You are one of these people who cronincally thinks they are right, but are wrong.

That's why you find trump relatable.


He has that same penchant for bullshyt you do

Will those Manufacturer jobs pay good $80,000 salaries, good benefits, and good retirement options?

Yes. There is a great possibility that wars will ignite over resources in the not too distant future. Also, with the changes in climate, wars over more arable land will also possibly be coming. Some of the jobs they are moving people out of they think can be done quicker and a lot cheaper by A.I. There are many reasons, but I do agree that the preparation for war is one of the main ones.
