    Well, the reason(s) for the current market status is where we differ, of course...

    Also, I cannot be bought (cheap)...

    Trump and Republicans are for this. An America first economy

    Democrats and neo-communist are against this. They want to oversee the managed decline of America into a post America age.

    Why do the Dems always work against America?

    Schemer Schumer cited climate concerns . Wonder what those were.

    My concerns involve the public not knowing what is entailed in these trade agreements since the original NAFTA destroys our middle class and created greater income disparity.

    Perhaps this one will be different but given congress sold out working people in the past do you think they represent average Americans now?

    Everytime these deals are done in secret working people get corn holed without the courtesy of vaseline!

    The dingbat sat on this for a year for political reasons, at the cost of thousands of US, Mexican, and Canadian jobs.

    Nancy sat on it for a year. The Senate took less than 40 days to pass it.

    Democrats will spite America and themselves just to hate Trump.

    Also note Obama ran on renegotiating Nafta and never did it in eight years, Trump did in a year and a half.

    No worries. I'm a retired registered architect and was until recently an FFL. I learned programming beginning in the mid 80's mostly as a hobby. I still struggle with C & C++ some but mainly used interpreted languages for work, Autolisp & Ruby. For my Ecommerce website, I took what another guy who did a crap job for me in ASP (I hate) and converted it in 6 weeks to PHP with a lot of JAVA. I got some help from a couple Indian contractors for some difficult shipping algorithms that were a bear to convert.

    Hay, If the market does crash (doubtful), you might be able to come out of retirement and work teaching coal miners programming. :D

    That time was spent getting the deal to a state where it was acceptable to everybody... which is where we are today...

    Notice how the bulk of the Senate passed her version with nary a whimper??

    If you're saying it passed in spite of Nancy, not because of her, we agree.
