and that is a good thing? I ONLY do internet surfing on my smart phone.
Just a comparison of tech base and economies.
Many experts would think this a good thing.
Me not so much.
But that is just me.

I am just pointing out that America is not the biggest nor best in lots of things.
And NO I am not moving to China.

I still think my idea was best... Stock the river border with crocodiles... :)
They're cheap, environmentally sound, and I'll bet they're pretty effective at getting the word out on the shore......
Notice how all this dude's buddies have paused to re-think the wisdom of this whole migration thing? :)

Hey wait! Don't be like that! whereya goin??? America's this way!... over here!
C'mon, I know a shortcut... :rolleyes:

.

That's a perfect example. The thing is, since once they are on the other side they are free to roam like DACA immigrants, they all still risk crossing. It doesn't stop any of them except the few that get caught. The rest got amnesty. ;)

I can’t take a real estate mogul serious when they talk about border security. If I was in trumps business, the last thing I would want is less illegals.

I have yet to find anything to take serious about Trump.

He does brag on Trump (himself) more than any other human I have seen or known.

Construction USED to be a high paying skilled trade.... Now after years of government regulations TAXES and FEES... It's a low paying job staffed by illegals... The developers didnt ask for as much as and often more than 50% of the cost of a project to be Taxes and Fees paid to Governments.

Yep cheaper labor means cheaper houses and more profit, every one wins right?
Just like most all things in retail stores being from China?

We are a profit driven consumer based debtor economy.
Employees are a valuable asset.
Just lay some off and watch your stock price rise.

Then there is the fact that most younger Americans are too spoiled and lazy to actually do manual labor.
When I was young farm labor was summer work for teens and young adults.
Now you cannot get any to work so immigrant labor.

Did you know it's illegal for a Framers children to work on the farm. Till over 16 ... due to child labor laws.

Besides Children don't even PLAY outdoors anymore.. or standing... You expect them to do FARM work.

Wrong it is only illegal for them to operate machinery and such dangerous things until 16.
And that is for hired help.
The U.S. Federal Fair Labor Standards Act, which governs child labor in the United States, provides no minimum age for children working on small farms with their parent's permission.

google is your friend or bane as the case may be.

Fwiw.... they were popped for the kids operating machinery..... they were hooking cows to the milkers..... they were also guilty of letting some of the kids operate farm vehicles... like the 4 wheelers they use and tractors....

Now the 4 wheelers were also toys that they rode for fun... but since they drive them on the Farm property it's illegal.

There may be health related rules associated with dairy and minors.
And
Were the children official paid employees?
If so they fall under the labor guidelines of 16 for machinery and such.

Also a business is a business.
Should the owner of a factory let his kids ride around there?

Many of our farm labor laws were tailored for migrant workers. I think 12 yr old migrants can work in the field picking and such.

Also in FL it is illegal to ride in the back of a pickup truck unless you are hauling migrant farm workers in the back....
Their lives are apparently not worth much....

Never said anything derogatory about Haitians other than Haiti is, obviously, a very poor and troubled country. Never said “take them out.” Made up by Dems. I have a wonderful relationship with Haitians. Probably should record future meetings - unfortunately, no trust!

Our president is fucking stupid!
I like it!

The dairy and farm is their home..... as in home based business. But the this is California and IF the kids were migrants it might have been different. But the are white children of a white dairy owner.

Migrant kids can pick in the field.... but there's no field to pick on a dairy.

It illegal for anyone to ride in the back of a pickup in calufornia... unless seat belts are installed and used.

Absolutely.

LOL. You say the dumbest shit.

Children playing is far removed from children working. There is no law that says children can't play on private property whether that property is a business or not. Even if it's riding atv's or biciycles or a fucking tractor. It doesn't matter if it's a farm, factory or office building. In fact, children playing can be the fucking business such as roller skating rinks or on the rural side, a horse riding business.

But, I'll tell you what. I'll give you the chance to prove your point. My property is an ag business. I'll invite some kids to come ride 4 wheelers in my pastures. I'll tell you when and where and you can call the law and report them. That should provide me with some entertainment. I'll tell the cops to bring their kids out and ride in my pasture too. :giggle:

What I read had a $ sign in front of it.
do yer own research or remain unknowing.
I have, which is why I questioned the units. You see, China's nominal GDP was only ~$12T in 2017 (look it up). Are we to believe that two-thirds of their GDP was transacted via "paying by mobile phones"?

Yep it is a big thing there and promoted by their Commie leaders so they can monitor all purchases and profile their 'citizens'.

Heck China is a big have or have not society.
Enough rural poor there that do not have bank accounts to nearly = the entire US population.
And they are a minority....

It may be a big thing, but it's not 2/3 of GDP. No way, no how. Take imports, exports, and B2B payments out of GDP and you don't have $8T in transactions left.

I dunno watch the vid.
found other numbers online with google to support the vid too.

I personally think that China's economy is a leveraged shadow banking house of cards due for a fall.
And the side wash will not do us any good at all....

The WH official response to the WSJ story about Trump Lawyer paying off Porn star for Trump.
Who btw is in a Pic with Trump :)

A White House official said in a statement: "These are old, recycled reports, which were published and strongly denied prior to the election."

If you notice they do not deny that is is true.

HONOLULU (AP) - Hawaii emergency management officials say a push alert that warned of an incoming ballistic missile to Hawaii on Saturday was a mistake.

The emergency alert sent to cellphones said in all caps, “Ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii. Seek immediate shelter. This is not a drill.”

Hawaii Emergency Management Agency spokesman Richard Repoza says it’s a false alarm.

He says the agency is trying to determine what happened.

The alert stirred panic for residents on the island and across social media.

LOL and the woman was using her porn name in that denial :)

Her real name is Stephanie Clifford so how much legal weight does a denial in a stage name have?

Some day you will grow out of that adolescent hero worship stage.

And I even got a bigger laugh. I just watched while you used a VU name(gay porn?) to deny a denial on the basis of a porn name. The irony is thick and hilarious. :giggle:

Legality has nothing to do with it, retard. There is no legal case. No lawsuits. No charges. It's just a fake news story that came from people that have NO NAME.

Such a juvenile response.

Since you're so caught up with which name she used, I suppose you can tell me the name of the person or persons that claim she got paid. Even if it's their porn name. "according to people familiar with the matter."

No?

I didn't think so, Mr Names Matter. :crazy:

Don't swallow, spit it out. What are the names? Who made the claim?

We have the names of the people that deny it, porn and real. Now what are the names of the people that say it happened?

If there are no names, it's fake.
