Maybe he can find some of Gerald Ford’s WIN buttons, you know,” Whip Inflation Now”
Re: 11 - That’s a great investment strategy! Have you written a book about it?
Better yet, can I give you my three 1/2s so you can manage my money for me?
Your costs go up during inflammation moron. 98% of Congress have no idea what owning a business is about and just do what Klaus tells them too.
Of course. And don’t worry, I will treat your money like it was my own!
The communist way, "The workers pretend to work and the employers pretend to pay them."
Along with payroll taxes, insurance, rent, utilities, supplies, and cost of goods.
That should get you an immediate 50% return!
So businesses lower costs by firing people or off sourcing jobs? Clown world.
It is hard for business to “lower wages” because they are in direct competition with the Federal and State governments for workers. Private employers seeking workers to do the jobs and the Fed and States paying many people NOT to work (making assistance so attractive and comparable to working).
Remember that the people operating Joe Biden don’t want businesses to exist at all - we are apparently all thieves, our profits stolen from the proletariat. These statements are a clear a declaration of war on free enterprise as they have yet dared to make. Maybe we have passed the tipping point.
The quickest way to lower your costs is to reduce your employees. Liquidating equipment and facilities takes time. If you have a factory, you have to keep it and the equipment to produce products. So you have to ask yourself how many employees can I get rid of to comply with Joe’s new economic policies.
His master plan is to put all these out of work folks on the gubmint tit.
This TRULY the “State of Dementia” speech..
These people - ALL of them, have ZERO understanding of how REAL business works.
ALL of them have spent most of their lifetimes thinking that “business” is extortion, bribes, kick-backs and insider trading.
They have NO clue about reality.
McGovern’s business went bankrupt, too. IIRC, it failed during the Carter Administration...poetic justice.
Nothing left over for bitcoin?
Liberals think wages are free.
Remember he said to lower the debt we have to spend more money the democrats are clueless about money issues all they know about it is spending it.
Life in the bubble is a shallow life it’s why they seldom leave it.
Agreed.
I have done accounting in various companies since I was 17. NOW 82 & still have one client—52+ years. Kroger-—Oscar Mayer—Shell Oil-—Universal Studios-—NOT exactly Mom & Pop operations in Wheatland, Wyoming.
EXACTLY WHAT COSTS does a company lower???
Rent/mortgage? NOT
Power bills? NOT
Water bills??? NOT
Toilet paper??? NOT
Materials/supplies from Vendors? NOT
Insurance? NOT
Delivery costs??? NOT
EXACTLY WHAT, JOE?????
As my brother says: Not one person in 100 is qualified to sign the FRONT of the paycheck-—but they all can sign the back.
I told brother a few years back that number is closer to one in 1000.
JOE proves more each time he opens his mouth how stupid he is.
NOW-—Whoever wrote & approved that speech has proven their worth in spades.
A complete compound of idiots.
Active workers in USA today are approx 18% of total.
Biden wants other 88% to be unionized.
THAT will certainly NOT drive down costs...only add more to wages & benefits.
One thing is true. Wages are not what’s driving inflation. If Freepers want to on all of the current economic woes on the lower blue collar workers (100,000,000 of them ) then you can all FOAD.
An import tariff is a tax on FOREIGN manufacturing workers and US consumers. Don’t but then don’t pay. A tariff is optional.
