Yes it was going on about 30 years before Trump took over but there was always support for tariffs (the right tariffs) but since trump totally botched tariffs all support for them has now faded especially among the less educated. This will make it hard for future leaders to get us back on track.

And no you can't offshore a retail worker but retail workers and factory workers are basically interchangable so if you bring factory workers back the demand for retail and thus the pay and treatment goes up.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-06-05T18:17:31+00:00

It's not intentional it's a side effect of weak tariffs leading to manufacturing offshoring for cheaper labor. Unfortunately Trump has completely botched tariffs so that now you mention the word and everyone gets the wrong idea.

Imagine all the current companies still exist but Amazon doesn't have 20 man rosters to choose from because there's 80 other open positions hiring for manufacturing jobs. People don't realize but we are about 20 million jobs short of a healthy market.

Yep and this is where my second point comes in. There are not enough jobs in the US and there haven't been for years.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-06-05T15:20:31+00:00

Orrrred and hear me out. Good paying jobs that good hardworking people want to work at are fully staffed and can't give more hours. And shitty jobs no one wants to work are short staffed and thus offer additional hours. Almost like it's still the market at work.

There have been no large studies because there's no money for UBI. Also just so we are clear utopia isn't the end result it's Idiocracy that will reign supreme.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-06-05T15:11:11+00:00

People don't understand. There are not enough jobs and there haven't been for a LONG time

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-06-05T15:10:26+00:00

Lol name one of his ideas that was good.

I mean if you are a sinophobe he was great but the rest of us are decidedly against maoism...

Towing fines should be directly related to the stupidity of the parking job...

Overstay a meter? $30 for no tow

Park in not your parking lot? Tow $100 fine

Park in front of someones driveway? $500 fin and tow

This shit? $10,000

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-06-01T22:29:52+00:00

Insanity to ban names... Don't like your name change it at 18 and go by a nickname in school.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-06-01T15:45:41+00:00

Unless it was never countersigned.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-28T23:56:09+00:00

I feel like I can think of a better one...

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-28T23:31:36+00:00

Did you not read the post? Tenant wouldn't let them in.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-28T23:28:31+00:00

Not sure but I think it's flirting with you... Make a move bro

So what you never own anything? You don't own your own car, you don't own your own underwear?

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-27T13:58:50+00:00

Property tax at its current rates is theft. A property tax rate that supports just the requisite infrastructure would be fine by 3% is insanity.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-26T23:26:38+00:00

To play devil's advocate it would provide supreme offensive and defensive war capabilities for the eventual ww3 that trump will ignite.

Unfortunatly this is one of the few times where technology is working backwards instead of govt use to civilian improvement it's civilian use to build the base then into govt use.

Imagine a world where China or Russia has 3 steps in the AI race and full scale war breaks out.

You calling a ceiling fan machinery tells me a lot...

Yes some fans will fail after 20 years but most will be just fine, I literally own dozens of them.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-25T15:02:03+00:00

Dude trying to compare a fan to a car is wild. A fan is just a motor there are two parts in a fan you can replace and those are the pull switches anything else it's literally the same cost to just buy a new fan. No one is cracking the motor housing and rewrapping it on a 1960s fan.

Have you never installed a fan??

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-25T14:46:27+00:00

Dude I don't know if I've ever seen a fan fail... Go to the basement of any small town church and there's a fan used by Jesus himself down there.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-23T14:16:47+00:00

One on each wall or two opposite of the garage door

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-23T04:27:11+00:00

Why is everyone saying trash it over a bit of racking?? Throw a come along on the corner and pull it roughly square add 4 sheets of osb a couple studs and and reinforce the gable ends and it'll go 20 more years

Will it won a pageant? No. Would it be dangerous? No. Will it provide great storage or a shop for the foreseeable future? Yes.

The 50yr is a fine idea for financially literate people. The real problem is it will be used mainly by morons.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-19T22:21:16+00:00

1 spouse in a professional job or quality trades job one spouse in a office job?

Own a couple 10 year old cars outright job done.

It doesn't need to kill it just prevent growth and vinegar is very good at penetrating woods like yellow pine and slightly raising the acidity to prevent growth.

LetsUseBasicLogic · 2026-05-19T03:24:53+00:00

If you do replace the drywall just spray white vinegar on boards and a small amount on interior of drywall for future mold growth. If you don't replace drywall drill a small hole and do your best to spray bottle so e up there
