Housing Bubble, credit bubble, public planning, land use, zoning and transportation in the exurban environment. Specific criticism of smart growth, neotradtional, forms based, new urbanism and other top down planner schemes to increase urban extent and density. Ventura County, California specific examples.
Up is good only if job quality is good as well. Lots of poor quality jobs, Low hours, low pay and no benefits detract from the point of full employment. Just enough info to con the public. IMO
I sorta understandish, but I don't understand those figures. How many expect to retire? Or actually did. The hub spent a couple of hours writing s short articLe for a ham radio magazine and got paid a couple hundred dollars that month. How does he count?
If you understood the process and all the different conclusions you would be way smarter then all of us. That's why nothing adds up.
Hub would probably comes under 1099 and not an employee. He may not even get reported to the IRS unless he hits a minimal annual compensation ($600 rings a bell from the racing days) from the Ham Radio people for which he would get a 1099 annual statement, So no he doesn't exist in the employment data.
Picked up a new saying BLSBS, kind of says it all to me.
He's probably forgotten about it by now. I will now remind him As anecdotal evidence, I'm seeing more help waneed signs in front ofom and pops and fewer beggers. Also, more boats on the river. Orla no is wEl coming a bunch of Puerto Ricans.
Up to 15000 words. PRs are Americans citizens. Haitians are not. The thing to compare them to is Cubans. Haitian do fairly well here. I've asked several, iF they can do well here, why not Haiti? They all say corruption, as do people with ties to PR.
Haiti has too many people. I don’t usually go for simplistic answer but this time the data are clear. Just like the clear cutting we see from satellite photos.
Help me out here not sure what obligation we have not being a state, do they pay all the same taxes we do? If the money goes to corruption, then they get what they paid for. They should get their money back from the people who sold them wind and solar junk. Seems like they did little to prepare for this storm. If they want the benefits of being a state then they should become one. IMO?
PR is not the victim of a -natural- disaster. Immediate aid won’t show up on the street to address hurricane damage until enough money is siphoned off to satisfy investors and corrupt pols.
Off to Hilton complimentary breakfast with... coffee! Then a birthday hug for the baby bird and a 400 mile drive only to jump into a monkey suit and hobknob with rich people. Oh gods I hope the car breaks down.
They voted to become one... I'm pretty sure it has to pass our Congress for that to actually happen. Kinda doubt the red team would go for it... But the next time the dims have both houses and the presidency, it'll probably go through.
So PR lives beyond it's means and now wants the Hurricane to solve all their past theft and corruption. Kind of what I think is going on as it has been kicked around of their default on electrical bonds or something basically BK. Tough love seems to be in order. IMO.
I don't think PR should become as state until they are solvent on their own. Same for Mexico LOL!
Using the left over travel points for Honolulu in February. Couldn’t go back to the Islands wearing a shirt they’ve seen before. 🙀
Not going to rent a car unless it is a one day thing. What a racket. $40/day rents. $50/day parking. At least gas is cheap. By California standards that is. Costco has a 39¢/gal difference regular to premium. $2.69.9 regular.
What value does PR have balanced with their before hurricane value? Maybe we should put PR up for sale and unload the liability. Reserve to be set. Maybe PRs would wake up to their real problem. It isn't us. IMO.
Time to go to the shed and work on the welding shop. Currently making a set of skid steer forks out of scrap.
LL, that's the point that separates contribution to extraction. Kind of like the EU oncea country was in some went debt crazy and now can't pay. I kind of think PR is in that position.
Truth told it was a bit more than brake pads. No fault of hers but catastrophic brake cylinder caliper failure. So I got disc, remanufactured calipers/cylinders and pads and swapped them out in the parking lot behind her apartment. No telling what a garage would have charged.
Vin Scully told great stories. For some reason despite being poor we were in the front row about five feet away.
Only a few now and then. I finally finished an interesting book: "Behave, The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst" by a MacArthur genius winner Robert Sapolsky. Its about "What went on in a person's brain a second before the behavior happened, then he widens his view to focus on what happened a little earlier in time.. What sight and sounds, and smells caused to nervous system to produce the behavior. And then what hormones acted hours or days earlier to change how responsive the individual was to stimuli that triggered the nervous system... He keeps going to include neurobiology, the environment and endocrinology in trying to explain what happened...He keeps going to include influences in adolescence,childhood, fetal life, and a person's genetic make up." (from dust jacket) It's pretty much are of all the relevant research literature on the subjects since we left school.
Great day in the flat lands today, I have to say the recession continues here. Still have one rental empty for 4 months and no interest going into the holiday, reduced the rent, time is not good. The last I noticed is the Cabelas call center took down their perpetual now hiring sign. Did they finally get full employment or did Bass Pro Shops shift some calls away to their call center. I bet on the second and the Cabelas call center will start to wind down after the Holidays.
Yup. By the way the CME plans to trade Bitcoin futures. Bitcoin prices are the only market that I know that is rising faster than the stock market (and could fall faster!). Some of the kids at the dog park have much of their money in bitcoins. I don't trade what I don't understand.

Well it wis only have to go up a little more to get the highest or second highest peakes.
Isn't the problem that it now takes a lot of people three jobs plus an Uber gig to have the equivalent of a full time job?
I do not know. Does anybody know? Would they tell us?
My daughter who lives in Winthrop, outsde Boston, has a live Turkey in her front yard
Work an hour get a check, counts as a job. What a mess they have cooked up.
A dozen miles west of the cesspool that is our State capital.
Roll up the windows and hold your nose, dead skunk in the middle of the road! :)
Ya... They're like rats now.
I can't figure out if up is good and down is bad or vice versa.
Good Morning!

Good morning.😀 to all you hippies. The poster from long ago have all vanished
Except sm-ll.
Better than no Job at all
Perhaps a gateway to a better job.
LL, Mish seams to have a good handle on what I see. Worth a read.

Thanks. I was going to remind people that Mish joined Maven.
Huh!?
Raining Central Valley changing to snow at 6000 feet Donner Summit and Kingman. Good start.

Not remind him.

Yup... Too many people, and not enough to go around...
Good night.😀
You know, if they got as much money as the other hurricane victims,maybe they'd stay. Or, maybe the corruption would suck it away.
They = puerto Rico.
Anybody think Trump's tax plan will go through?
Good Morning!

Obligation do we have, Need a lot more coffee.

In good news I got a Cooke Street Hawaiian shirt for $6.

Ought to go well with the tux

Oh a tux. Thought to meant a real monkey suit. See the rich think you are rich.
Nobody would buy.

Well, I meant it semi sarcastically.
The hub won a Raffle at Spamalot.
Local people. Excellent.
Several Americans expressed the desire to work at Mar,A Lago..he could n hire Puerto RICANS.
Maybe you are right. But we are still an elephant stomping around.
Tornados!!
Having dinner with some old retired guy. Sports or something? Vin Scully.
Only rich people do that.
I didn't know who is. The hub is impressed. Say hi to him for us. Good night.😀
Wearing your tux?
No tux tonight. This is just a merely xclusive country club not the Sherwood or anything like that.
Rich ? Rich people don’t change their kid’s brake pads in the parking lot.
The things you do for your family when your the mechanic, plumber, electrician, well all around maintenance man. :)
Truth told it was a bit more than brake pads. No fault of hers but catastrophic brake cylinder caliper failure. So I got disc, remanufactured calipers/cylinders and pads and swapped them out in the parking lot behind her apartment. No telling what a garage would have charged.

I remember hearing Vince Scully broadcasting Brooklyn Dodger games in the 1950's. I think I was in first grade then.

Heheheeehe
Walt, how are you? any nickels in front of bulldozers?

It's pretty much are of all the relevant research literature on the subjects since we left school.
Omit the word "are" in the last sentence.
So that's what you've been doing.
Good Morning!

Unless Bitcoin is accepting dollars and burning those dollars I don't understand its claim on good and services.
New post regardless.
