Well his argument cannot be totally without merit

Ironically, this decision to hear the case comes a day late, and one bank already started turning over information.

(Bloomberg) -- The U.S. beer industry is blaming a jobs hangover on the Trump administration’s tariffs.

A report by two trade groups showed U.S. beer-industry jobs dropped 40,000 since 2016 as metal tariffs boosted aluminum-can costs, leading to a drop in investment. The biennial study by the Beer Institute and National Beer Wholesalers Association said direct, indirect and induced jobs fell to 2.19 million in 2018 from 2.23 million in 2016.

“Aluminum tariffs are increasing brewers’ costs and are an anchor on a vibrant industry,” Jim McGreevy, the chief executive officer of the Beer Institute in Washington, said in an emailed statement. “Each brewer is deciding for themselves how to absorb that expense, whether it’s raising prices, laying off workers or delaying innovation and expansion.”

The shipping and logistics charge for delivering aluminum to the U.S. Midwest, known as the “premium,” more than doubled as Trump slapped a 10% tariff on imports of the metal. Molson Coors Brewing Co. estimated last year that the levies would create a $40 million hit to its bottom line.

Still, tariffs may not be the only thing hurting employment in the industry. Total cases of beer, wine and spirits consumed in the U.S. dropped 0.8% in 2018, the third consecutive year of declined, according to a report from IWSR, which studies the beverage market. The main culprit is the beer slump, with consumption down 1.5% as more drinkers gravitated to spirits and wine.

A Beer Industry spokeswoman said Thursday in a statement that while the group can’t say tariffs are “100% to blame,” the evidence “supports that brewers are making fewer investments because of the added cost of aluminum.” The Beer Institute said jobs grew in the prior two-year period by 27%.

"President Trump signed a presidential memorandum on Thursday cracking down on welfare-dependent legal immigration to the United States in an effort to protect American taxpayers."

Simply logical.

" I do think that impeachment is a very divisive place to go in our country,” Pelosi said.

Chuck is ready, So is Crazy Bernie.

"Schumer cautioned that the impeachment process is long and “slow moving,” but said the president will not be able to “upend it.”

“The process is deep and strong, but slow-moving,” Schumer stated. “And that’s how [the Founding Fathers] wanted it and that’s how it is, but it’s worked pretty well for 220 years and I don’t think someone like Donald Trump is going to be able ultimately to upend it, as long as the American people don’t become just apathetic and who cares what happens.”

Stop Talking and get to doing.

Come on Impeach President Trump now.

"American voters like today’s economy so much that the percentage who say it is “excellent” or “good” represents 71 percent. That’s the highest total number in almost 18 years, according to a Quinnipiac University National poll issuedon Tuesday."

I watched the presentation on Cowboys, turned into a reality show Presidency, with his staff lined up to speak out in defense of the meeting yesterday, where after Speaker Pelosi said he had committed impeachable offenses,. They stood there and recounted the meeting and said that he was calm, and brilliant.

Your perseverance has made you look like an idiot since he won by a minority popular vote victory. He's losing his mind and Pelosi is right, his family should step in and get him help.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

You never, at least in public that you are concerned about his "extremely stable genius" crazy shit. He called Pelosi Crazy Nancy. A 12 year old kid who is 73 years old and the President, and you attack me.

Now the Pelosi/Trump meeting has much of the elements of a he said/she said except Trump has more witnesses. It was behind closed doors and the president did appear calm immediately after when addressing the press.

Pelosi looked unglued with the shaking, spasming hand movements and slurred speech in her press conference today.

She definitely looks like she needs medical attention.

Urgently.

And Trump wins again.

Roger...

Bottom line, is that one of us (me) has been consistently correct about things, while the other (you) has been consistently wrong.

The person who has been consistently correct...

Is not the one who "lost their mind"!


You can call people names, you can toss around your opinions, but at the end of the day the fact are the facts are the facts. And those facts are the Coldheartedtruth!

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

It was fake News idiot.

The video of Pelosi’s onstage speech Wednesday at a Center for American Progress event, in which she said President Trump’s refusal to cooperate with congressional investigations was tantamount to a “coverup," was subtly edited to make her voice sound garbled and warped. It was then circulated widely across Twitter, YouTube and Facebook.

It was slowed down by 40%

alky,

thank you for once again displaying your invincible ignorance when it comes to all things economic. it's not like we need a reminder that you understand exactly zero when it comes to $$$, but it is good for a chuckle. i mean, you're the idiot who thinks the president could be bothered to post a video mocking speaker pro tem pelosi.


alky,

there's an old joke that revolves around economics, money borrowed, etc., and it goes something like this -

when you owe the bank a thousand dollars, you have a problem...

...when you owe the bank a million dollars, the BANK has a problem.


i post this oldie but goodie for the benefit of others around here. you understand nothing of things financial, so i really don't expect you to get the joke.

maybe you can get denny or the pederast to explain it to you.
