and Since you are talking companies leaving........Subaru just announced the Outback model will move manufacturing back to Japan.
Unemployment figures are rising.
Lineups at food banks are getting longer.
Grocery cost is going through the roof.
Actually Trump just made a deal with Japan a week ago on his "Vacation Trip" in Asia. Looks like Toyota will be bringing their manufacturing company over here creating more jobs for more Americans.
Maybe it's a trade off. You can have Subaru and I'll take Toyota. You can have Park Place if I can have Boardwalk. This way neither side gets a monopoly and they both share in the benefits of opening new markets in their countries.
I like Subaru actually I have one. My favorite was always Pontiac. I had a few of those and for some reason I always liked the color blue.
The food banks are due to the Schumer Shutdown. As soon as the Democrats pass the CR the Government turns back on and everyone gets paid and everyone gets their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Notice it does not say life long total grocery intake.
Grocery costs have many factors. The cost to produce, transport, package, stock, trade wars, weather factors, pests. The cost of fertilizers, employees, machinery maintenance, the list is endless. But when they collide the cost of goods always goes to the consumer to pay for what it needs to be able to provide. Let's think about and debate about what the best ways to reduce these costs so that the consumers cost go down. There are ways, the problem is the will to do it.
Human nature is greedy. Is it profitable for me to earn less if it means helping out my employee, my neighbor. How can I make their lives less stressful. If you have the means then I believe people should be as charitable as they can. Be a cheerful giver.

But when your giving all you can barely spare to the government and the government is abusing your trust with your money by spending it on frivolous things, making back room deals, playing the market, waste, fraud and abuse, Then we need to demand accountability. They have been getting away with this for a long time. Corporations, Banks, NGO's, another list of bad guys...
We have to fix the wrongs before we see the progress of the rights.
The biggest thing every country needs to survive is energy. In whatever form be it natural gas, oil, coal, wind, solar, nuclear, Tesla even.
There is energy out there that we are just getting our hands around. The world is about to change in a lot of ways. And we're trying to get ready for it. But we can't lose sight of the little guy. Not everything is science and technology. We have agriculture dairy everyday needs, housing, education, medicines. And Art and Music and cooking. So many trades to learn, and yet we been taught to watch a computer and believe it's truth instead of our own.
I know things look doomy and gloomy right now. We are in a transition phase. We are on the cusp of a new Age. God is the Rock of ...
yes, Ages. And we are moving into one in this day and time.
We had the bronze age and the steel age, the industrial age and the age of technology. The next Age is Information just like Paul said, And knowledge shall increase. But we also know that knowledge doesn't last forever. Because all one really needs is Truth.
And this old world been boggled down in lies from the beginning. We're just wading through the Storm to get to the other side.
And we're not far from there. And there is Truth. When we get there we will already know where we are and we won't need knowledge to learn, we will already know as we ourselves are known.
Rom 8:18
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time
are not worthy
to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Rom 8:19
For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
We are so close to a new beginning. A new Age. And I'm praying that this new Age will be the Age Jesus returns to spend with us 1000 years. A new heaven and a new earth. A new day. And a new song.
We will come through this. Those with faith will get there faster I believe. Because we have help from above.
Those without faith will find themselves lost in a world they don't understand.
And it will be us with faith to pull those without faith through that door.
Revival is in the air. TPUSA is doing wonderful with the younger generation. God will not die in this country because we the Lord's warriors and prayer warriors, will prevent that from happening. We will Fight, Fight Fight, so Jesus will never be turned over to the enemy again.
Jhn 18:36
Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
Jesus' Kingdom is the new Age. And Satan is standing at the feet of the woman waiting for her to give birth so he can kill it.
And so Islam has made an appearance on God's Country which we wrote our Constitution upon.
A lot of the Jewish peoples have already succumbed to Islam and Muslim out of fear. Or out of stupidity, I'm not sure which.
But the people that take an oath to destroy you I wouldn't think you would want to come under their wing, unless that is the plan.
And Christians getting genocided in many different countries and now our own mortal enemies are within the gate.
Yeah, lots of things going on in the world. But everything is by design, there are no consequences. And no matter how bad the storm gets, believe that God is in control, because he is. And things are going to be the way they have to be in order for any of us to get through the door.
