    I have started doing something way before this has happened, and this is not going to change my direction either. For people who just started doing something when this hit, sorry, it is already too late.

    Thanks, those are the kind of response I was looking for. So it's my turn to share with you, for me personally, I have a job that is still relative secure (Company works with big brother), but I have started to study something else outside of work, that is not required of work long ago before...

    Something that sells hope, fake or not. People will be looking for hope anywhere they can find after this. So story telling is paramount if anyone wants to make money out of this crisis selling hope. Any kind of hope really.

    My experiences are that people are extremely hard to change, and eventually if you derive a new business model to them, in time it will look and operate exactly like the old business model. This is why startups can actually successfully taking on a big giant companies, but when the said startup...

    Sigh, you are going to see a very slow recovery then. My point here isn't to argue how our attitude will be toward this crisis, I know the fastlane mindset. But none of us can also ignore what the choices of the masses are, as actions taken by the governments during this crisis evidently shown...

    What "the masses" (remember the masses are comprised of a multitude of individuals) do is their problem. Until the fire comes and then it is your problem as well, this will happen eventually if this crisis drags on, our debt is ballooning right now and this will impact me and you with many ways...

    Even if you choose to not make a choice you have still made a choice." Rush, Freewill. Wow powerful words, never thought of it this way, so all things are choices, regardless then. However, to think that the mass's choice have no impact on you, or your business, is also delusional. It will...

    I know this might belong to the doom and gloom typical of mainstream media, but as a member of this said generation, I always felt that there is an air of truth to it. I know here in this forum, we are supposed to adapt to a growth mindset. But the context of the said situation also can't be...

    Has Trade with China helped or hurt the US?

    HOT! RANT 
    Yup, capitalism is about creative destruction, sectors that produces low value and still requires a large amount of input are constantly being gave away by sectors that do the opposite. Think about the politics and logistics that had to happen for things to be made in China...and it still comes...

    I saw a documentary feature on Amazon today on Youtube, in it they interviewed several workers that used to work in Amazon fulfillment centers. I can't being to fathom the disaster and suffering that is going to happen if we happen to move low value manufacturing back to the US. The people in...

    He answered it Chris, because he is a manufacture, so after all, he is arguing in his own self-interest, so he wants the help of the state, ultimately to make all of us consumers to pay a higher price, so that he can benefit. How convenient.

    A Marxist for sure, you are arguing the state to subside your business by closing down free trade, literally how Marxist can that be? do you think leftism only applies to the working class?

    So you are arguing all this time because such a move would benefit you personally? Got it, then everything I do is also in my best interests then. My interest is to have things as cheap as possible, that would imply outsource anything that is too expensive to make in the US, and if I can not...

    I mean if you read all his arguments, essentially all boils down to what he already said, "Why can't we have the same jobs those white kid's parents had in the 50's america". I mean really it is the same entitlement mentality coming from the right side. Capitalism's greatest strength is its...

    "Free markets have already shown they cant beat a state influenced market place." Found the undercover Marxist here on the forum. "But by then how many working Americans are going to be deprived of the jobs their parents got?" Why is someone entitled to get the same job their parents had? I...

    If we had to shut our doors so the Chinese won't out compete us, then it is our problem, not theirs. Your argument is a right wing equivalent of the lowering of standards that is so popular in the more left wing heavy academia. We should be able to compete and win even if their state backs their...

    So in this thread, we have someone that is not just against global free trade, but also suggested paying retail workers as much as a union steel worker, and also raise massive tariffs on one of our prime trading partners in the world. MJ, am I in the T_D or Sandersforpresident sub on reddit...

    God if this is what the current voting political thinking about the world then we are F*cked, as consumers and citizens of the most powerful country in the world. I actually grow up in socialist China, trust me most the young people here in the US are way too consumerist and soft for any kind...
