That is great. How does it make sense then to knee cap the number of H1B workers coming to America to satisfy tech jobs we are woefully ill equipped to fill with the domestic labor pool? What steps have been taken to better equip our labor force to gain these in-demand skills? How many of these people are working more than one job since their wage is not sufficient to live off of? How come wage growth is so much lower than expected? You cannot call check mate when you have barely proven you can play checkers. What part of your statement addresses any of my last statement? None, but it sure sounded good.

Sweet job ignoring the fact our president is openly rejecting the findings of multiple federal agencies when they produce facts he doesn't like. Sadly, Trump supporters live in an alternative reality. The real world will be making a return sooner than you think. Cannot wait to be rid of this treasonous, lying [BLEEP] bag.
Trump is Russia's weapon.
Weaken relationships with allies.
Weaken the EU and NATO.
Validate autocracies and dictatorships as legitimate.
Weaken public perception in the media and government agencies.
Promote nationalism
Promote xenophobia
Promote class and racial divide
And his tool is a man who lies so blatantly, how do you not [BLEEP] see it?
Don't make America not great again.
Suckers.
Cute table? Does it help the middle class or not?

You're just made at everything he does. These people have been taking advantage of us for years. Where's your disgust with them?

That's like saying Jimmy Carter is responsible for this economy because it's the same trajectory.

Poor Kotite, I think the last bits of sanity are forcing their way out of his consciousness.

Do you care that the Kremlin is touting all sorts of verbal agreements made with Trump and the Pentagon has no clue what Putin is talking about, largely in part because Trump refused to have anyone else in the room besides interpreters?
I am absolutely amazed so many people willingly choose to take Trump at his word ON ANYTHING when he has proven his word is worth nothing.
You think he cares about you? America? Anything else except himself and making money for his brand? What proof can you cite that cannot be contradicted ten fold? Suckers.

You understand verbal agreements mean squat on the international and domestic stage? FYI, the Pentagon is well aware of any Russian cooperation agreements (they made them). Deconfliction lines, hot areas, cold areas, etc. As far as the Summit talk, policy would trickle down afterwards and in the military world, it takes damn near a life time unless an immediate war essential. Don't count on the Pentagon giving you any details on any NEW instructions.
I'm absolutely amazed you continually gloss over input provided time and time again that shows how "chicken little" you are. Relax, life is short. Invest and take advantage of the economy. Perhaps get a job or upgrade the one you have. Stop letting the media fill you with doom and gloom.

None, but it sure sounded good.You aren't very good at this economy thing huh? The economy will eventually move to a new equilibrium. The domestic labor pool was empty and shallow at best as most qualified individuals had to take jobs overseas since not domestically available. We were in a recession and by all measures still in recovery. More domestic demand, more jobs, more competition, higher wages, less barriers to entry, etc. There will be short and long run implications to consider. It takes time to hit the magic nominal wage growth number of 3.5% and beyond. This is basic economics. FYI, jobs are out there but folks are too lazy to acquire the skills necessary.
In my opinion, Trump should have waited atleast a year before introducing new tariffs. Give time for the new tax policy to take root. It was necessary but not so quickly.

Just what the Russians wanted, to elect Trump and make a stronger US and US economy.
That's the litmus test of whether you are sane, or completely deranged.

Excess demand in the labor market will a.) Create positive pressure on wages, b.) Enhances the need for employers to train develop and promote their own employees.
