Neither did Bush's, Clinton's or Reagan's. BUT, in the name of the game that's been sold to us since the early 80s (shortly after the birth of the 401K), it's a boom. And a big part of this is driving profitability of certain portfolios. My wife and I work for different companies. So the funds offered by their retirement plans are wildly different. Since my income is pale compared to hers (I DID put her through college, twice), I have more invested into higher risk offerings. Hers are more conservative (humorous since she's a democrat). So while I contribute a greater percentage of my meager earnings since selling out to corporate America, her contribution is lower, but worth more. I give up on figuring it all out. But again, padding strategic funds could make even a recession seem like a good time to go yacht shopping. Especially for a captive group (like 401K employees).
This president is a traitor. He has ceased to be an American. We are sending him on a silly walk to prison.
got it. but didn't watch all that... does he really go for 4:53? sO I'm not basing my opinion of Cleese on his comment about "parent culture". I'm inclined to set the bar a little lower for him. And don't really think it's ironic that he happens to live in the Caribbean (if he does). I don't really agree with that other comedian either (who was saying Cleese's tweet was racist). Cleese didn't intend anything or come off as really offensive to me (maybe I missed something). It seemed like an attempt to make sense of the culture shock that is bound to occur with the kind of diversity that you experience (and if you haven't, you must go) in London. I don't know... Maybe I'm weird, but I don't count that against Cleese and think he's probably got the racism thing in check/sorted out.
After watching those videos I'm completely lost. Cleese remarked that London isn't just filled with native Londoners anymore, so what? The other guy seems to be one of the ones he was talking about, too stupid to realize how stupid he is. Or maybe it's me becasue he didn't make any sense to me at all.
All this vid and the sharing of it makes clear is that someone is focussing a little too much on some youtuber with an opinion and agenda. It's supposed to trigger 'libtard' comments against Cleese who supposedly is now considered an alt right bigot by 'SJWs'. If some individual internet warrior, or maybe even like 3, stated such a thing on social media someone will pick that up, magnify greatly and than poses it as a leftist consensus.
since when do presidents unite the country? i guess you could argue bush did, if you believe he did 9/11. but even that only united people for a couple days.
I only mentioned it because he claimed to do just that. He did also say he's everyone's president … another one of his 15000 false and misleading statements. I would say FDR did a good job of uniting the country, after the depression started and we went to WWII.
Actually, there were plenty of loyalists willing to do their part, as well as those who enlisted in the army's famed 442nd combat team, but still, that was quite a blemish on FDRs record
No president can unite the entire country on anything but some have been much more successful than others. Franklin Roosevelt served four terms. Count them...four. The Japanese internment was not initiated by Roosevelt but by Lieutenant General John L. DeWitt and those on the West Coast. Roosevelt resisted: His wife, Eleanor also disliked the idea: And let's not forget that some German and Italian Americans were also interned, but that doesn't mean that on the whole Roosevelt didn't unite the country, he did.
And let's not leave out JFK who didn't just unite the country but the Western World as well. I'm old enough to remember his Berlin visit. "Ich bin ein Berliner"
When I thought of FDR as a unite-r, I was thinking most of the nation was suffering from the depression which had been brought on by Republican economic policy. Most people at that time were feeling united by their poverty. Of Course, the ultra rich back then, like these days, never wanted to be united with the poor, unless it was a sinister or morbid union.
Well that's not very sporting of you. Obama's efforts to unite the nation didn't kick in until well into his second term. But then, it looks like Trump will have that chance after all. Unless some KKK/Russian shoots him, in front of Forest Gump.
I think Trump & Pence are the top leadership of the KKK. The Klan always has been anti-immigrant, anti-none Christian people, have a desire to revive the Confederacy, eradicate taxes, deny government services to the poor, and allow corporations to trash America's sacred natural lands. In plain goldminer Murcan, they want the gold and want us to settle for the shaft.
