baddog Posted Wednesday at 05:28 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 05:28 PM Sure am glad none of y’all jumped out of windows. 2400 and rising. Quote
baddog Posted Wednesday at 05:31 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 05:31 PM Leveling off now. It does that. Quote
baddog Posted Wednesday at 05:41 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 05:41 PM Since most seem to want to deal, except China, a 90 day pause is in effect on some tariffs. Quote
baddog Posted Wednesday at 05:53 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 05:53 PM Right now, hovering at 2100. No words of encouragement from the haters? Typical Quote
baddog Posted Wednesday at 05:57 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 05:57 PM Watch what happens when the deals are hammered out with the 75 countries coming forward and our trade gets on an even keel. When China decides to equal trade, it will go through the roof. When there is nothing to cry about, the haters stay silent. So predictable. Quote

baddog Posted Wednesday at 07:34 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 07:34 PM You haters are like Jim Carrey in “Liar Liar” when his associate had her way with him and afterwards asked if he had had better and he said…….y-e-s. Couldn’t enjoy the moment….. Quote
OlDawg Posted Wednesday at 09:01 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 09:01 PM The Big news of the day wasn’t the Market. It was the slim passage of the budget framework—which sets up for ‘permanent’ tax reductions. I also say again: For Trump’s big plan to bring manufacturing back to the U.S., we need an emphasis on building/training a skilled workforce. We don’t have the people anymore. Crafts, skills, & trades. Let’s have some thought about incentives for people to go to trade schools like the $$$ the Ivy League schools get from the taxpayers. Redirect some of the funds going to the colleges now to some form of ‘accredited’ vocational training schools. Numbers I read are we’re already about a million skilled workers short. DCT 1 Quote

CardinalBacker Posted Wednesday at 10:51 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 10:51 PM Welp… I guess Trump learned a little bit about tariffs this week. Back to the drawing board. Quote

Back to the drawing board. He knows what he's doing. It's called the Art Of The Deal. He put a 90 day pause on those that are willing to deal. But he didn't drop anything concerning China. He said -- they'll deal! Quote

An effective Department of Education would help steer schools towards a two tiered system putting emphasis on vocational skills training on equal footing with college skills training. Quote

We don’t need a Dept. of Education. We need an effective incentive break for specific industries to partner with local community colleges—or training schools—to offer job specific training in the way the company wants their employees trained. During training, the student is paid a certain wage, and is hired full time at normal starting wage/benefits after completion. Somewhat similar to old school apprenticeships when companies actually used to train their employees. Just do the basics beforehand, and use it as an ‘interview’ process. Very little bureaucracy necessary. Industry knows what they need. Give them & the trainees what they need as far as incentives, and get outta the way. They’ll find the training partners like they do now. LumRaiderFan and AggiesAreWe 1 1 Quote
