Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted August 19, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 19, 2020 Free healthcare, free college, free daycare, guaranteed income......it goes on and on. They may also call it "Universal" but to the youth and even older liberals its heard as free. When this propaganda is fed into the minds of the people in this country over and over again it becomes something they feel they deserve and not what is earned. "I deserve it for nothing" seems to be the prevailing mantra with too many in America. The discussions or debates on these things should be had. I'm not in disagreement that they shouldn't be had. My problem is how the left pushes them as if you should get it no matter if you are willing to be a contributing member of society or not and that propaganda from the politicians, MSM and education system is ruining our youth. Flame away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I think there is some reasonable justification for wanting the lower rates because of the strength of the dollar and pretty much everywhere around the world having lower rates I think we were in too strong of a economic position to justify doing it. I can tell you from real world experience with my customers from Australia that the dollar being so strong was impacting business. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/101215/how-fed-fund-rate-hikes-affect-us-dollar.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
