@iamyourfarmer Agreed. Anyone who reads this is much closer to being homeless and destitute than being in the top .1%.

The odds that our loved ones will be at the bottom socio economic ladder at some point in their life are infinitely higher than they will ever end up being in the .1% for pretty much everyone who isn’t in the top 1% now. Yet we really work to keep fighting for those .1%’ers

@TheeGrainLady In a serious country, the keys would have been taken away a long time ago. Actually, never handed over in the first place.
English
I use humor and snarky remarks, often at inappropriate times, because I still find it hard to believe this is our reality.
The President of the United States, the country that was once revered as the best country in the world, is threatening to completely eliminate a country... Via social media, nonetheless.
We are becoming the evil they believe us to be, and we have virtually no way in proving them wrong.
English
@Ike_Saul Go ahead and let us all know when "at some point" is.
English
The fact that I can't tell whether this is genuinely our president or a hack is such a jarring, disorienting snapshot of our time. At some point, there aren't enough policy wins to make up for the degradation of what's acceptable; the president seems to be going mad before us.
English
@DaveDejmal I'm with you.
And for that matter, we can't all be direct to consumer and we can't all pick up a camera and social media all day. If we did, there'd be no value in either of those stupid things.

Everyone says the family farm is dying. But nobody talks about the guys who figured out a second revenue stream, built a direct-to-consumer brand, or just picked up a camera and started telling people what they actually do. The farm didn't survive because conditions got easier. It survived because somebody got creative when conditions got hard. That's the story that doesn't get told enough.

@CVDmarkets It's getting harder to believe that's who god sent to save us.

@sschevelle33 @ottoscholl Yeah. All signs point to you being correct. Any (R) has no choice but to ride this train till the conclusion, if there is one. Step out and your career is over. And the endless death threats on top of that from the moral right.
English
@ottoscholl I don’t think it will happen. It would probably be political suicide to any one with aspirations in the post Trump Republican party. Look how many people campaigning even up to today are still trying to ride Trump’s coat tails.

Nothing said Happy Easter like a little light war crime threatening. 25th this jackass.

@BEisenhart I'll continue to give him credit. If anyone else said that it'd be cataclysmic.
English
@TheeGrainLady Super snoop.
Don't worry, I was being sarcastic.
English
@iamyourfarmer Evidently, they're doing it because it works.
English
I think in a time of war the tone of administration representatives shouldn’t match that of some online influencer sitting in their driveway getting real with y’all
English
@BEisenhart Virtually every single aspect of life is now dominated by what Teflon Don says. We wanted to be entertained.
I grew up loving politics. I was "Mr. President" in school. That said, I miss the days when I could go weeks without thinking of what the U.S. Pres. was doing.

@TheeGrainLady Have you not been getting the 'pump-and-dump' notification emails?
English
Oh good, I was worried it was costing me more. It’s like tariff math guys!

@gwiesefarms For success in life and on the farm, I learned more in my philosophy intro to ethics course than any of the ag courses. Not sure what that says though.
English
Did anyone attend an ag university and feel they actually learned what they needed to to be successful on the farm?
If so, which college and what course or degree?
English
@UCBearcat92 @BrianWillott We get all bent out of shape about needing high school (and college) to be job prep but in a sense we might be missing the point.
I probably learned/attained more value in my philosophy intro to ethics course than any business class.
English
@BrianWillott 64% of unemployed Americans don’t have college degrees.
English
This is a problem, but not the problem people think it is. We need the matching market to work earlier in their careers so that they study something people want to hire them to do.
unusual_whales@unusual_whales
36% of unemployed Americans have college degrees, per Bloomberg.
English
@UCBearcat92 @MichaelWSpike They're all gutless. They will do nothing. Reps too. Every single one knows better and they won't do they're constitutional job.
English
So what this means is Trump did irreparable economic and reputational harm to the united states, eroded trust in the usd, all of it to get his ass licked by the judges he installed
He needs removed. He’s a danger to our nation
All because he thinks he’s above the law
The Kobeissi Letter@KobeissiLetter
BREAKING: The Supreme Court of the United States has officially ruled that President Trump's tariffs are illegal, in a 6-3 ruling. The US now faces $150+ billion in potential tariff refunds.

@BetsyFreese Ultimately it feels like the tech billionaires probably threatened to withhold midterm funding if they didn't turn these polls around. Which is sad.
English
@trukb22 Pretty much. I'm sure her "pivot" was based on some pretty sound polling.
English
@ottoscholl We're actually approaching a point where I can simply say that if you own your home and your household has two vehicles, one could safely be an EV. A majority of use cases and driving miles fit in perfectly even as we stand today.
English
The used EV market finally hit a price point that I had to give it a shot. I will say this, if battery advancements ever get to a point they don’t lose performance in colder weather, we won’t worry about E-15 anymore. It is a superior driver experience in almost every facet.
