Jobs

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

Not sure if this had a proper place elsewhere to put it, but I have noticed a couple of these lately and there's been no threads on the board about them. So here's one of the few positive threads on this board after a wave of apocalyptic anti-Trump circle jerking.


Sharp, $7b:

Intel, $7b/3,000 jobs in AZ:

Amazon, $1.49b/2,700 jobs in KY:

Ford, $700m/700 jobs in MI:

Apparently the Sharp thing is part of a $150b/700,000 job thing over the next decade from Japanese investments, which will include infrastructure investments and upgrades. Building some high speed trains, and increasing US exports of natural gas to Asia.

So there we go, some nice things that don't involve burning/shooting/racism/protesting.

I don't believe he suggested it had anything to do with Trump.

We dont want to see the country crash and burn. That is the point of railing against the con man russian puppet and his band of ass clowns. 

Those on board with the reality tv show host and his message of doom and gloom are more likely to be hoping for a crash and burn.

Bad analogy. It's more like this "Wow this pilot hasn't crashed since we stop letting him get drunk before flights. Well, with such a stellar flight record recently, I guess we could let him start drinking again."
