well, the US Postal Service only lost $3.8 BILLION in fiscal year 2018, so what could possibly go wrong?
i mean, why is giving sub-prime loans to people with disastrous credit ratings a bad idea?

Trump just raised taxes on things being imported from China.
It's equivalent to a 25% sales tax.
Don't buy Chinese products.
More NY dumbassery. A bill is now on Cuomo's desk for signature allowing for prison inmates in solitary confinement to make phone calls.
NY, 2nd worst run state in the nation.

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Tell that to the trump supporting wall mart shoppers!!!! Too funny
Dopie putting down working class democrats. That's what put him in the oval office.
Yes please keep that up. It'll result in reelection.
Trump just raised taxes on things being imported from China.
It's called a "tariff". The Chinese put tariffs on our products as well. American cars recieve an automatic 25% "tax" if you are a Chinese person wanting to buy an American car. We see tariffs on products from between 10% and 25%.
Which, btw... has all been coming down in bits and pieces since Trump became President. While your liberal snowflake press is sobbing in the corner because they are triggered by our own tariffs on Chinese goods, it would appear that there has been a tangible method to Trump's madness.
At least we have seen tangible results for the first time.

U.S. consumer prices rise; underlying inflation tame
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. consumer prices rose in April but underlying inflation remained muted, suggesting the Federal Reserve could keep interest rates unchanged for a while.
Heh

This is Alky Stupid. So completely wrong. Just an other example that demonstrates Alky is an Economic Retard.

“The committee for the last several weeks has operated old school, and that’s a credit to leadership — Adam Schiff’s leadership as well as Devin’s.” Rep. Mike Conaway.
House Intel Republicans offer rare praise for Adam Schiff
An uncharacteristic, perhaps fleeting, sense of comity comes amid a bipartisan request for Mueller files.
President Donald Trump and Republicans have harangued House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, accusing him of lying to the country and demanding his resignation.
But the senior Republican who spearheaded the call for Schiff to step down now says those disagreements are “water under the bridge.”
GOP Rep. Mike Conaway, the mild-mannered Texan who led the committee’s hotly politicized Russia probe last year, is suddenly praising Schiff for creating a newfound sense of comity on the Intelligence Committee — reflected in the committee’s bipartisan request for all of special counsel Robert Mueller’s files.
“Schiff probably deserves the lion’s share of the credit because he sets the tone as chairman,” said Conaway, adding that California Rep. Devin Nunes, the panel’s top Republican, also deserves credit for the detente.
Report is UK Spy Christopher Steele helped investigate Trump under Mueller s payroll.
Oh, and Comey at a town Hall said it was perfectly fine to place spied in political campaigns.
Wrong way Roger :

When you are wrong, you do it in a spectacular manner.
CNN REPORTED
"Former FBI Director James Comey said it’s “totally normal” for the FBI to plant undercover individuals close to political campaigns, during his Thursday town hall on CNN."
No it's not Dirty Filthy COP.
conaway needs to be primaried. you never strike a conciliatory tone with a piece of schitt like adam schiff. especially since if the roles were reversed, schiff wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.
this is why republicans always get rolled. they treat democrats like honest brokers when in fact they are fucking traitors.
If the price of an appliance is increased by 25% because of the tarrifs imposed by the President, it is a sales tax.
"Former FBI Director James Comey said it’s “totally normal” for the FBI to plant undercover individuals close to political campaigns, during his Thursday town hall on CNN."
but only close to republican campaigns.
democrat campaigns receive an unheard of level of protection, including getting a pass when laws are obviously and blatantly broken.
People like GOP Rep. Mike Conaway understand the role of the house of representatives in our Constitutional republic.

no alky, it's still a tariff.
sales tax revenue goes to the state and local municipalities where the sale occurred.
you're such an economic dimwit you should hit your knees and thank God every single day that you have a "tab A into slot B" union pension.
without it you'd be living in a cardboard box under a bridge.
Spectacularly Stupid Wrong Way Roger.

Paul Krugman lifted nonsense.
It is neither stupid Alky.
when wimps like conaway decide to publicly gargle schiff's balls they need to be primaried and driven into retirement.
they can switch parties and run as a traitorous democrat if they want to keep the seat that badly.
Obama knew and approved these Operations against Trump .

"you're such an economic dimwit you should hit your knees and thank God every single day that you have a "tab A into slot B" union pension."
The mail order took a healthy Chuck of his payout.
Alky, when you are wrong you do it at a spectacular level.
"Despite many claims that the tariffs would hurt U.S. consumers, they have not. For months, data have defied predictions of tariff-led inflation. And now it is indisuputably clear: the metals and China tariffs have not raised consumer prices.
The Department of Labor said Friday that its consumer price index was up just 2.0 percent compared with a year ago, indicating that prices are not rising particularly quickly. The Federal Reserve says it targets 2 percent inflation, although it uses a different measure of prices."
Clubbing baby seal Alky.
" Tariffs are paid by importers, often large U.S. companies that are importing from their own foreign subsidiaries or foreign contractors. But businesses cannot raise their prices just because their costs or taxes go up. Sometimes they have to absorb the costs.
We have seen this recently with wages, which have been rising faster than inflation, which means costs are rising faster than prices. Conversely, the massive cut in corporate taxes enacted at the end of 2017 did not automatically translate into businesses slashing prices because their tax costs had fallen.
In addition, the Chinese currency has depreciated over the past year, which makes imports from China less expensive. And there is anecdotal evidence that Chinese manufacturers are slashing prices in an attempt to hold on to market share in the U.S.
Bye bye Roger, come back when you find a nice cut n paste.
Ilhan Omar Blasts Israel For Refusing Palestine's Generous Gift Of Rockets
WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a hearing Thursday, Representative Ilhan Omar slammed the country of Israel for refusing to accept the generous gift of rockets from Palestine.
She pointed out that Hamas terrorists picked out the gifts with care. They spent lots of time and money and put a lot of thought into them. All of that work, and Israel refused to accept the freely offered gift, according to Omar.
"The Palestinian people made a generous peace offering of hundreds of rockets, and Israel slapped them in the face," she said. "They wouldn't even open their presents, callously rejecting them while they were still en route."
"It is obvious Israel does not want peace in the region if they can't humble themselves and accept such a dynamite gift," she added.
When it was pointed out that Israel returned the favor, Omar slammed them for that, too.
Nadler now is Attacking Mueller.
"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller will not testify before Congress next week, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler said on Friday.
Nadler told reporters that he hopes not to have to subpoena Mueller to appear before lawmakers, but that he would do so if necessary. He declined to characterize ongoing negotiations between his committee, Mueller and the Justice Department."
"WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal government recorded a $160.3 billion surplus in April as revenues for the month jumped to an all-time high. "
