I have two smaller businesses, and I’ve both laid off due to expected decrease in business and bought supplies ahead due to expected shortages.
You’re good putting together that you wouldn’t build a factory right now because uncertainty doesn’t let you predict returns. Not only can you not predict the next president and their tariff policy, I wouldn’t say you can predict trump’s actions tomorrow. I heard an interview John Bolton did today, and he said something along the lines that “trump doesn’t think, he reacts.” Tariffs could be zero or 500% next month or next year or tomorrow. The safe move is to wait and see - and while everyone waits and sees, only small-scale production will start, definitely not enough to sustain demand.
Honestly, if I had the money to build a factory right now, I’d park it and wait to buy one from a company that fails in all this. It would save so much money.
This is complicated and something you have to understand the stock market to even imagine. Certain stocks retain value way above what may be considered their value because of the propensity of other people to buy the stock. Tesla is something that falls into the realm of what people will call ‘shit beta,’ which is a stock that only has value because people know that it is volatile and will therefore have value. It’s hard to explain, but think about it as a diamond or a Birkin bag - it’s valuable because people think it’s valuable, way beyond what it’s actually worth. And as long as people think that it’s going to be worth one dollar more than it’s actually worth right now, they’ll buy it. It’s ridiculous, but here we are.
Trick question, this is “Backquark Sluts 8,” which was a direct-to-video release.
District 9
As a smaller business, I have two major projects coming out this summer; work for the local school districts and a large remodel. I’ve already ordered all the parts for these jobs in expectation that my parts house will have great supply right now, but it will dwindle off as the projects come due. Major management companies I work with seem aware that prices will increase, but they don’t seem to be accounting for the fact that all of us will be fighting for fewer parts.Fortunately, I have a good relationship with my supplier, and parts of these orders are going to sit on the shelf with my name on them to be picked up in the near future, helping push out my cost.
This is a nightmare, trying to figure out what’s going to run short, but at least we went through it in 2008 as a practice run. Unique to see us do it on purpose.

I like to hope these guys were tank crews, from back when they had surplus tanks.
If you dried the cheese they might take it. Maybe if you wrapped it in cello tape. Then it would be a lot like mailing a coconut.
Or, and I am just throwing out ideas, what about british football fans and vuvuzelas?
We could always adopt “Lizzie’s in a box”

He wanted Barron but Melania said no.
Yep, I write them when I have time.
And that could be a real trump quote, admit it. :)
The best part of writing trump quotes is hearing him say them in your head.
I love the warped sense of humor you folks have in here.
Assuming I’m snapped back to the same part of the earth, climate-wise that’s ideal in the US PNW coming out of spring. Plenty of berries and food to forage, and I’ll probably impress the natives with my watch and well made clothes. I can probably get the native tribes to metals, and gain acceptance with my magic hand tool that will briefly shine light at night for a few weeks. I don’t know offhand where copper would be, but I know gold is in the streams, and I know how to placer mine, so I can get some electricity going with that and magnetized rocks from lava flows.
I think first contact would be the key.
I own two mavericks, it’s a fair comparison. They only look small because of the size of today’s vehicles… in the 1980’s you’d see most of today’s lifted trucks in a monster truck rally.
Might look into a gun.
I assume he is wearing two suits under that one.
