We are now in the start of yet another government shutdown. This time it is lead by DJT. He signing executive orders that suspending multiple government operations and saying things must go thru his office for possible approval. And virtually all foreign aid is now stopped. He is likely the one foretold of that will destroy America. This a fact not something one sided political BS. Actions speaks louder than words. He said he would be a dictator on day one and he is proving it daily. Just think this is only the first week. What next tattooing us with barcodes and deporting anyone that don't have his barcodes?
On top that we here in LaVergne, Tennessee is losing a large Bridgestone tire plant which produces truck and bus tires. That is another 700+ employees that is going to be out work very soon. They once employed twice that many people. They also looking at a agricultural tire plant for possible closure. I reckon that is okay since we don't need trucks to transport crops that will go unharvested and fields that don't need plowing since farmers will have no incentive to plant new crops due the lack of workers and that they can't sell unharvested crops.
All this gives me the incentive to just shut down my shop too as if I can't get paid for work done then there is reason to work. I can just start killing my adopted kids and BBQing them. They are actually pretty darn tasty and I won't have to support them any more. Just deposing up the bones can be a little tricky but rivers tend to cover them up fairly quickly.

It like a business where the customer and the business must come to an agreement. Most businesses can't just out snag a customer and demand "Buy our product or we will jail you." attitude. It is same when the customer tries the same thing the other way around. Which actually a couple to try that here. They are no longer allowed at my business.
Personally I am becoming ashamed of being American citizen. I kinda wish my mother just left me in Germany when I was a kid.

No I just look at the end results okay. If the dang government actually was trying to get things done instead infighting and fighting the other sides we might get something done without saying its my way or the highway. We must work together and not against everyone that disagrees. We must comes to agreements that everyone can live with. We don't need be pissing off all our Allies just to get our way.Is it safe to assume you think Boy Blunder Biden was better?

All new presidents come in like gangbusters. Making a big showing at the beginning. Give Trump a few months and his liberal side will be back in full swing.
American manufactures have been having a hard time for a long time. Our USD is in the toilet, because of big spending politicians like Trump, Biden and all of them back to Reagan. But somehow we keep them going as best we can.
Same as the farmers.
Trump won't be as bad as some make him out to be. And he won't be as good as others make him out.

Well that is the point PT they are all wasteful to a point. It seems they all have pet projects
But why are right wingers introducing so stupid bills like the one in Mississippi state senate where they want to fine a man for having an erection without having sex? That is criminalizing a man for being a man. It is so stupid as we can have them during the night when we are asleep. And a man can have one just talking to a female at times; although, that is quite embarrassing. Let any man that this never had to happen cast the first stone.
If it is all about the fertilized egg then we need to stop eating eggs. And we need stop killing livestock when they are pregnant but this happens every day. Man slaughter animals like their lives not important at all.
Take the case of the 100,000 ducks that New York just destroy just because they didn't want to take the time to treat the flock. It is not always bird flu but a common cold which antibiotics can treat. Last year after a short hospital stay I came back to my flock which a third of them were sick. If the health department knew this they would had killed my whole claiming bird flu. Instead it was a contingent cold which with antibiotics I cured within a few days but the antibiotics is tricky as the CDC tried to get them banned. I just know what I need to do to get them legally. I have save many birds using these antibiotics. Usually I can get to them in time I can have back up with 24 hrs with me keeping them for a week under my treatment schedule then I release them back to the wild.
Same thing happen to commercial chicken farm that went to work for. They were losing over 200 chicken per day when I told them to get the vet in as they had what I call blue comb infection. Again it is contiguous. If they treated with the antibiotics I recommended the deaths would stop with 24 hrs but no they wanted to use penicillin which took two weeks to stop the deaths. The deaths didn't even slow down for over week. A lot of lives lost just because of being bullheaded.

That sounds ridiculous. And honestly, it sounds like some fake news. I'm sure there's more to it than just getting an erection.
We're at the top of the food chain for a reason.
If they're in business, the bottom line is always the most important issue of said business. I agree, the government gets all out of whack over such things. But if they were to let something like this go untouched, and humans were to get sick and/or die, then there would be huge lawsuits surrounding it.
Apparently someone made the wrong decision. That's on them. We all make bad decisions sometimes.
My brother has a heating problem with his dodge ram hemi. He won't let me go through it and do everything that's needed. He wants to nit pick with the easy/cheapest way out. Now, after a month and all this cold, he's still trying this or that.
And every morning he still has no heat.

Well killing all these animals hasn't stop the virus problem. Our researchers got to find a way to prevent the problem before it infect these animals. Now that this virus has started getting into the mammals and it will only change to where start killing more of the animal life including humans maybe take it more seriously.
But that might be to late if it become a super virus similar to the Covid that went ballistic and keeps changing fairly rapidly. We only got a handle on the Covid after millions die and it still trying to raise its ugly head.
But of we had the black plague that kill number of humans until we found the way to prevent it. It is still around but very case how up now.
Here is another nice virus created disease CWD and it affects all animals currently and it was first discover in birds. Now deer are one of the mammals it is current running amuck in. And no one really working that problem either. And I think dementia might be one form of it.
It funny they are not killing commercial flocks of chickens when it is discover in the flock. And yes I have seen it personally in at least one group of 10,000 chickens. And CWD is a terrible disease where the infected loses all their body weight and doesn't how well they are fed either, it just prolongs the death sentence currently.
But of we got people that refuse to use the vaccines when we do have them. I reckon they are just want people dying like they did before these were available. But of course wars have made sense either.
