"From his earliest days in office, Bush paired his belief that Americans do best when they own their own homes with his conviction that markets do best when left alone. Bush pushed hard to expand home ownership, especially among minority groups, an initiative that dovetailed with both his ambition to expand Republican appeal and the business interests of some of his biggest donors. But his housing policies and hands-off approach to regulation encouraged lax lending standards."

"Late last year, Bush signed the American Dream Down Payment Act (search) to help families that can afford monthly mortgage payments but not the down payment or closing costs associated with buying a house. The legislation authorizes

 

No, they were informed that layoffs may be necessary in the near future if Biden wins. If I worked there, I'd like to know that up front. A person's job/income is very important. Biden told over a million on Thursday night that their jobs are in danger if he wins. I appreciate him also giving the heads up.

 

just because the voter intimidation was stupid, doesn't make it any less wrong

 

I did not shoot the story down simply because it was cited in Yahoo News; I shot the story down because these economists whom they cite don't go into detail as to why Trump is bad for the economy, nor do they go into detail as to why Biden is or would be good. Their argument was, essentially, "Orange man bad. Bad for economy because so orange."

I honestly have no idea what you are talking about, or what you are referencing. Considering that this post is peppered with all-capitalized words, a misused ellipsis, and the consecutive multiple question marks, this incoherent rambling seems to be based purely as a product of improperly channeled frustration and passion. I would recommend not typing when you are in such a mental state. Instead, please step away from the keyboard and do something else.

I mentioned my occupation because you entered the conversation, saying that you were richer and smarter than me. I simply responsed.

Why did you have to write all of the above and then, afterwards, you tell me you are going to put me on ignore? Why not just put my on ignore without saying anything? I mean, it seems to be an exercise in futility to bring up argumentative points, only to then say you are ignoring the person to whom they were directed. It comes across as puerile and unbecoming from someone so learned and enlightened that they say they are a centrist, not taking the right nor left side of the political spectrum--yet conveniently leftists posters on this forum seem to like your posts a lot.

Anyway, I do hope you feel better and work on bettering yourself.

 

Do elections not have consequences?

 

employers have to follow the rules, your same excuse could be used to justify sexual harassment, ect...

 

home growth was policy of the Clinton admin too. the lax lending standards had something to do with it, but that goes back to Carter.

When Bush warned that something needed to be done Barney Frank and company did nothing

 

not while telling people to vote, you can't tell your employees to vote and then say there will be consequences for voting against my guy

 

Actually covid postponed it, as it allowed Trump t dump trillions into the economy, it was about to crash pre-covid

 

We have heard that since the last election. Fake news!

 

it's not fake news, it happened, and trillions more are going to be dumped into the economy very soon

 

Correct and sexual harassment is illegal so my "excuse" wouldn't work in that case.

 

yep, but the consequences he was threatening was his employees jobs

 

it was too late by then, people were losing their jobs and could not pay their mortgages, same is happening now, and the crash is coming

 

can you demonstrate how or why he must have meant the consequence would be his own doing as opposed to a consequence of the policies he expects will likely be enforced on his business?

 

he stated it in his letter, he should have just told them to vote and then in a separate letter he could have said anything else, he combined them and that is what will get him in trouble

 

We'll have to agree to disagree, he IS a successful businessman with 200 employees, you are an anonymous blogger who calls himself "quantum nerd", makes unverifiable claims about his business acumen while spewing falsehoods and platitudes

PS if his business decisions were based on gut feelings he'd be bankrupt, not a successful profitable businessman employing 200 people. It's smart to curtail expenses when socialists Bernie, AOC and the Squad implement their idiotic policies and leftist fascists from Antifa and BLM are allowed to freely roam the country rioting, looting, burning down cities.

 

so is voter intimidation

 

Yes, that is true. I missed where I said that it is not illegal.

 

..... because that may be a consequence of a Biden administration. You're catching on little by little.

 

"Correct and sexual harassment is illegal so my "excuse" wouldn't work in that case."

oh, I thought you were insinuating it wasn't, my apologies, then we agree

 

that is his opinion, and he gave it while asking them to vote, he was basically threatening layoffs if they did not vote for Trump - that would be voter intimidation

he is the employer, they are the employee, he has a position of power over them

in the same way an employer can't ask an employee out on a date and mention consequences if she does not accept

 

A Biden Administration plans to do the following:

• Implement a multi-trillion dollar healthcare plan
• Raise taxes to cover some but not all of the healthcare plan, which will lead to more overspending by the federal government, which will skyrocket inflation, which means less buying power
• Raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, which will hurt small businesses, especially those hurt the most by the lockdowns, in the current economy
• Support locking down businesses that have recently reopened, such as gyms
• Implementing new regulations, including those which remove industries from the market, such as oil

Given this recipe for economic catastrophe, businesses letting employees know that the dark economic climate that will come under a Biden Administration may not be beneficial to their job security.

In fact, I think it was charitable for this employer to let their employees know what may happen, so they can plan ahead, should the worst-case scenario, Biden being elected, happen.

 

layoffs due to the Biden administration policies.... not because he's a dick. You were doing so good and now you're slipping again.

 

We agree that sexual harassment is illegal, if that is what you meant.
