My question is why do so many federal agents film all of this on iPhones?

If I’m a business that is legally entitled to receive X in refunds if the tariffs are ruled unconstitutional, I’m not paying X in corporate income taxes until I’m reimbursed. It’s pretty basic accounting. You’re just moving accounts receivables around the balance sheet

You can thanks Citizens United and a conservative Supreme Court for all of that?

They aren’t really constitutional because they funds will not be allocated by congress so who knows

That’s only like $1500 per employee over 4 years. That doesn’t seem unreasonable

The value of the dollar (DXY) is down more than 9% year-to-date. When you recognize that everything we own is effectively worth 9% less than it was in January, it puts into perspective just how strained this economy truly is. It’s a reminder that the headline numbers don’t always capture the real erosion people are feeling day to day.
Not to mention, all of the corp investment in this country my right now is going into AI which is massively going to erode the earning potential of 10’s of millions of Americans long term.

re: Amazon data center linked to cancer and miscarriages

If you read the article it’s not solely the data centers. It’s the data centers mixed with the toxins that get in the water from farming practices.

Basically, the allegations go like this: industrial megafarms operating in the area are responsible for churning out millions of gallons of wastewater, laden with nitrates from fertilizers. All that waste has to go somewhere, which is one way of saying it mostly ends up in the ground. Amazon’s hulking data center, thirsty for water to cool its blazing hot computer chips, supercharged this process, adding millions of gallons of wastewater a year to the heavy volume of farm runoff, which Morrow County was already struggling to keep up with. Soon even the deepest reaches of the local aquifer were tainted, according to RS, as huge volumes of data center and agricultural wastewater saturated the water

No body actually uses it to buy anything that is legal. Beyond speculation there is no usage demand for the product.

This is kind of an ironic take from an admin that claims to be pro-crypto. Actually they are probably doing this to drive more money into crypto

I don’t think that comment of “904k white Americans fired” is correct. I’m guessing the bulk of that is people that retired mixed with the fact that while people are not reproducing at population sustaining levels.

This doesn’t include benefits and those wages would likely skyrocket with the massive amount of demand if you kicked out all of Hispanic workers. I do think your point is fair that it was likely a 50% in the labor costs piece of the equation. I could see it adding like $50-75 / sq ft on build costs.

I feel like the title of this thread should be “free markets are killing America” - which I do not agree with

Did he say if he pays these guys less?
I didn’t ask. I’m guessing he pays them slightly less per hour and doesn’t have to pay benefits which is a huge chunk of labor costs. He did say he always tries to hire as many legal ones as he can but there are just not enough to go around. He also, said you can knock out projects a lot faster because they will work 15 hour days if the sunlight allows for it. He is a pretty big Trump guy / conservative radio which surprised me a bit

Do you think he meant "Hispanics", or "Illegal Hispanics"?
both - he did say the legal immigration policies do not allow for enough labor to meet current building demands. He also said it is a culture that white & black guys do not want to join because the Hispanics flat out outwork them and never complain.
I did hear from quite a respected home builder in our area that if you were to kick all the Hispanics out building costs would increase by at least 50%. But… the bigger issue is there is a massive shortage of qualified labor available to build in our metro.
