Ideally, everything gets automated to the point where people don’t *need* to work since robots will be producing everything everyone needs. Until that happens, you will have to deal with the problem of having a permanent 20%+ Unemployment rate.

4th gear: So Amtrack needs about...what...5 more shutdowns to pay for the improvements it needs?
Venus. Quite literally hell.
Some states ban them due to the possibility of said chains breaking and hurting innocent bystanders.
Sure it will; pressing the pedal down farther makes the car go faster!
The owners have finally figured out they keep screwing themselves on these long term deals, and have each more or less independently decided not to do them. As a result, there’s no bidding war with owners trying to one-up eachother to try and make a deal, which is deflating labor costs.
That’s my take as well.
Not a wrong take. Most likely outcome is Trump goes the “National Security” route, and since the Supreme Court won’t get to it for at least 18 months, the wall dies on the grapevine.
“She took the loan and the extra savings and just paid the whole thing off right away.’
That was a key part of Mendeleev’s periodic table; he noted that atomic weights doubled per element and that elemental attributes tended to be similar within the same element groups. When he created his first tables he specifically left the expected atomic weights and properties of elements that he believed weren’t…
3rd: Currently a Prius owner (it does what it needs to), and assuming Tesla doesn’t belly flop, I fully intend to move up to a Tesla in a few years. Basically waiting to see if anyone else comes up with more attractive options (cost, performance, charge time, range, etc).
Pretty much this. You can never afford to put all your eggs in one basket, because it takes time to change course once market conditions change.
The Government is just a reflection on the people who vote. While it’s easy to treat “the Government” as a boogyman, the truth is far crueler:
Hey, you all voted to treat the US government like a business. You got exactly what you voted for.
This Congress didn’t vote to authorize the wall, the last one did. This Congress is willing to pay to increase funding for border security, but not the wall.
At this point, the best thing for Europe is for the UK to got “no deal” and for it to go so badly, no one ever seriously considering going that route again.
Simply put: Jobs, and well paying ones for that. There’s a reason why most of the US’s economic growth is centered in cities, and that’s because that is where the people who make (and as a result, spend) the most money.
The *real* underlying problem is how states budget, specifically the fact they can’t deficit spend. They have to borrow money to cover any revenue shortfall. As a result, rather then deficit spend in the short term to re-pave decrepit roads in order to save money down the road (no pun intended), they just keep…
