Yes, but you don't then turn around and lie about how you're having to increase prices because your profits are taking a hit.


They lied?

Why should businesses stomach the hit?

So, I bet you’re saying that Chyna went through some growing pains before they enjoyed the benefits of the union-free automation.

I think that’s what you’re saying. Maybe we need those growing pains as well.



I mean,

the CCP effectively runs all the ports there. You think we should model that?
Not anytime soon and at probably 10x the cost if you aren't going to bring in the chinese who have already automated at scale.

Would the government fund/mandate that ports need to use USA developed and manufactured hardware and software?

Didn't it come out that the expected cuts were only like 150b over a couple of years?

Don’t we need automation to eliminate unions holding us hostage, tho?


You want china controlling our ports even more than they already do?
I haven't bought a brake tag since probably 2010. Never had any issues.

What sort of distance and dispersion improvements can be expected year over year for these expensive clubs?



Nothing on max distance.

No one is saying you need a new driver every year.

I just bought a GT3 last year and I would expect to keep playing that at least another 4-5 years. Eventually the face will wear out and will need to be replaced.

I believe you.
Go ahead and articulate what a “good” trade deal with china entails.

Has the SPR been refilled?

That was super important 3 years ago.

Gasoline prices in California are among the highest in the United States due to the state's reliance on imports from Latin America and the Middle East to offset declining state supplies.

I think he's conflating the very real personal avoidance of shame with the seemingly not real state avoidance of shame. I can't fathom Xi feeling an ounce of shame over leading his nation into a long, protracted, famine level trade war. I could be wrong, but I just don't see it. Nothing in his history indicates that would be the case. On the other hand, Trump wants a legacy. If he loses the House and Senate in the midterms, he's all but guaranteed not to have one.

hrough that lens, even I could see this is all a negotiating tactic, and that in negotiations you never show all your cards at the beginning or middle.

Thanks for the advice.

I wouldn't say she's unattractive, but I wouldn't really say she's attractive either.

She's tall and thin. That's about it imo.
