Stock Market is the bottom in?

You’re never going to get it. This is America, you can work where you want, may have to move but you can. Or you can hire who you want for a wage “they” accept. I never once held a gun to someone and forced them to take a job I had.

I don’t have a helicopter, plane, bunker etc. but I’m happy for the guy or gal that does, good for them. Gives the rest of us something to look up to,

For all those who claim to be "Christians" out there ...... What is the measure of a man in God's eyes?? How much money he accrues - or how he treats others??

If one's goal is to become extravagantly rich, and accomplishing it by making others' (employees) lives harder (low pay, making them pay for medical insurance, not paying overtime when it's legally called for, etc. - a common practice in many businesses) ......... when the employer has the financial capability to treat employees better / fairer ------ how does that greedy behavior compare with God's teachings??? As I recall, Scripture doesn't teach, "Make all the money you can, using any and all tactics. Cheating your fellow man / woman is OK, even if they can barely make it in life ------ just be sure you rack up huge sums of money. After all .......... your bank account is what matters most to God."

As you said above - - "Look up to ultra-rich people as examples??" (as opposed to what God teaches??) No thanks.

For Christians - Jesus didn't teach "business school", bottom line / profits / piling up riches - He taught treating your fellow man like we'd like to be treated ourselves. My earlier examples illustrated that ... it CAN be done, and those owners still were very well-off.

The kind of greed shown by some who are wealthy beyond most people's comprehension ........ You're right ------ I'll never get that.

You can probably find good and bad extremes in everything if you look for it. We are not in church. You are free to believe what you want for now. That could change for all of us. Meaning at the present time you can voice your opinion but there are places where voicing your opinion could get you killed. No, I'm not threatening to kill you.

I'll leave God out of it. But paying someone a wage they accept is not cheating them. Its treating them exactly the way you said you would.

Many rich people quietly donate billions to charity because they are private people. but like Bernie just hate them cause their rich.

My company does a boatload of work for a billionaire. Better than half of it is for veteran projects in different communities around the country. 100% of it is donated out of his pocket not to mention the people on his payroll working on the projects. But just another write off for a billionaire right?

It's fine according to AOC we don't need to farm in America because we have grocery stores. IT'S FINE. Biden said over a year ago that we'll be facing a global food shortage. He would know, because they are going to cause it.

The food shortage is mostly because of the Ukraine war and its knock-on effects to global agricultural production. Ukraine was one of the largest exporters of wheat in the world. Many, if not most, of their fields probably didn't get planted last fall. They are also a huge producer of sunflower oil. I would expect there to be a shortage of at least wheat and cooking oil starting this fall.

High fertilizer prices will probably mean lower yields fora lot of farmers, especially on marginal ground.

And if China gets another round of African swine flu, there will be a pork shortage as well.
 
This has nothing to do with so called global warming they intend to hamstring industrial nations farmers and allow third world countries to produce whatever they want however they want to level the world economic field as they see fit.
 
The more I think about the confiscation of people’s property for this there is something that’s smells really really bad about it.

I won't eat chicken of any kind. I'm getting leery of beef and pork from the grid too.
 
I shoveled the last of the loot i'm willing to shovel into this hole. 3 weeks to go. It's either gonna be bust for them, or bust for me.
