Lower profit margins can lead to lower profit without an increase in sales. However, with more Americans working there is a bigger pool of consumers so sales should increase to balance out the profit as margins fall for most not all companies. It's called reducing the wealth gap.
Here is a thread that explains the process. It's not mean to be an exhausting detail of what is being seen but you should get the idea:)
"We're at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it's been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening. Well, I think it's time we ask ourselves if we still know the freedoms that were intended for us by the Founding Fathers." REAGAN 1964
"Not too long ago, two friends of mine were talking to a Cuban refugee, a businessman who had escaped from Castro, and in the midst of his story one of my friends turned to the other and said, "We don't know how lucky we are." And the Cuban stopped and said, "How lucky you are? I had someplace to escape to." And in that sentence he told us the entire story. If we lose freedom here, there's no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth." REAGAN 1964...
"And this idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except the sovereign people, is still the newest and the most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man.
This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capitol can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves." REAGAN 1964
Think about this for a second. IF Trump only got his previous 240,000 votes that he received in 2016, then he would have lost. Nikki got 298,000 votes very high for an SC primary. It was almost as if some people ran the numbers and decided that ~300k votes would win.
Then Trump blew the doors off with his record-setting votes...if one was looking at it in a conspiracy minded fashion, one could possibly say that the anti-trump faction made a faulty assumption based on where they believed Trump's numbers would fall. 🤔 and instead of
...a successful ambush, they were routed. One could also look and realize that a lot of money was spent in SC to set up that ambush, and a lot of people thought it would work. This would explain all the discombobulated talking heads last night... and big donors pulling out today
People ask if 2020 was rigged, what's to stop them from rigging 2024? Nothing, really. They are already doing it in plan sight with the DOJ& friendly judges, attempts to remove him from the ballot, playing with voting laws, etc. So,some lose hope. However, I look at FL Miami Dade
It was a hot bed of fraud for years until one person was removed. Now it's much better, and it only took the removal of one person and a form resolve to change it. The people doing fraud is a small% based on population. If people are resolved to make fair and free elections
...a thing, then it will happen. If they allow the tiny few to play their games, it won't. There is a lot of hope and evidence that things can be changed by the people being resolved and resolute. There is little hope and little evidence that things change when they aren't.
The Sackett decision is a prime example of the media lying to you. It's was a 9-0 decision. That means every justice conservative, liberal, maga voted to end the reign of terror of the epa with regards to the waters of the US. All 9 did that. But if you read some of the media
...they want you to believe it was a 5-4 decision and that it was a conservative rewrite of the law. Which isn't the case. The court voted 9-0. They differed on what defines a wetland. With 4 people wanting to keep the "nexus" agreement that justice Kennedy made up out of thin..
..air in 2006. Much like the justices came up with Roe arguments to square the circle. The 5 justices rejected that argument, instead stated wetlands had to be "connected" to navigable interstate waterways to fall under federal oversight, while 4 thought the nexus argument could
Let's leave DeSantis out of this equation. When did we as a people accept that it was okay for our leaders to lie constantly to us and then not have any consequences for those lies? Was it Clinton, and his depends on what "is" is?
Or was it before that. I remember Bush saying, "Read my lips no new taxes," then being punished for that lie by not being reelected. But that I think was the last time any major consequences happened to a politician who lied. I mean, that's fine, i guess.
...but if we have come to accept that our leaders are nothing but liars, why do we elect them knowing they are lying and will lie to us? Seems like, I don't know, not a good recipe for success or accountability. Sure, we all hear, "but that's what a politician does." However,
Look, take this for what it is. I try not to be a person who goes around with blinders on. I support President Trump because during his four years, he did more to further the cause of Americaism than any modern president except maybe Reagan.
Did he make some mistakes? Sure. Does he bullshit a lot, sure. But on the other hand, he kept his promises to the best of his ability, fighting the good fight. He loves this country, and he doesn't want a "new world order." He wants America to be the best country and its citizens
.....to have the best standard of living we can have. He tries to put America and all its citizens first regardless of their race, gender or political leaning, and for that, he will continue to have my support. Whereas the vast majority of politicians and leaders put themselves
