Presidential Elections

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
JIMO, Trump is running on it's all f***'d up and Hillary is bad.  Hillary is running on Trump is a all f---'d up and eight more years the the last eight years while still blaming the guy from 8 years ago.  That's an 8-8-8 and I think in some superstitions that's good luck.

Just keep in mind, those two are the best the two parties could get behind.
 
I did pretty well under W and did pretty well under Obama.  So I'd still do pretty will under Hillary...I am the establishment.
Under Trump is possible chaos.

I think I'll vote Hillary so I will do pretty well again for the next 4 years.

If you are doing well in your career and life why would you vote for Trump?

To be honest, HRC is probably not going to be much different from Obama.  So why do we want to subject ourselves to the same thing for the next 4 possibly 8 years?

That's 16 years of the same thing.  I like to change it up a little every 4 or 8 years, and this candidate does bring some new fire to the table that we'd all like to witness, whether good,bad, comical, and perhaps how he pronounces "nukular".

Besides, what did we learn in school?  3 branches of gov't.  Checks and balances.  It's not like Trump can run the entire show like Hitler.

Last 8 years were pretty good for me. I wouldn't mind 8 more of the same.
 
Can any Trump supporters avoid the rhetoric, platitudes, conclusory statements, innuendo, and bad logic, much less the crassness?
 
What's your thoughts on Trump's statement during the debate: "We have become a third world country."

Do you think LAX airport is a third world country airport?

He probably landed at Long Beach and thought it was LAX.
 
Trump makes a ton of sense when going after oppressive government over-regulation, over-taxation and noncompetitive labor pushing us into a third world position. Look at major infrastructure projects.

Only 10 years late and 400% over projected cost.  probably in line with most California public works projects. Contrast that with "third world" China and....

So, please share.

In what areas is government over-regulating and how?

Where are we over-taxed, how should it be changed, and where do you cut spending to lower taxes?

How is US labor "noncompetitive"?

How does any of this relate to infrastructure spending? Are the Democrats opposed to increasing infrastructure spending?

What part of Canada? Vancouver doesn't seem to have that harsh a winter and I would like to stay on the wessayeeeed.

Stayed at Ottowa, Ontario and also Edmonton Alberta. In Ottawa whole canal turn solid ice and they create Winterlude which is pretty cool and people skates on them. Very picturesque and serene. The cold is fine, its the freakin wind chill factors that did it for me. When they have one which is pretty often in the winter, you can't even see two feet in front of your face and I have to drive to customer's sites with deadline, that add alot of fun.

Back to the debate, my last 8 years was well, I am not the 1% so I never have to cheat on taxes.  :) :) :). Trump tax record has got to be pretty bad because he probably cheats and never pay any. Therefore the secrecy.

 
I do have to say that as a small business owner in California with increased regulation, rising taxes, increasing minimum wage this current administration and our state puts a great deal of pressure on the very local businesses that will create jobs and build prosperity in communities. It is very frustrating and I'm not surprised when companies are driven out of the state or even country just to stay afloat.
With Hillary we'll be personally taxed to death on top of it. Guess I should "be smart" and work on getting Trump's tax consultant to evade taxes altogether.
I think many of us are going into this election so disillusioned by both parties...

Snoop doggy dog greeted him at Long Beach and he thought it was a South African Ambassador Nomasonto Sibanda-Thusi.
 
LAX is a 3rd world country airport.  I despise going there....by the way...I use google maps to plot my way to LAX, and it usually tells me to take 91 - 405 - exit Century BLVD....105 exit Sepulveda under the airport tunnel is a shit show these days.

There is no such thing as free lunch. We all can be "smart". Is it the right thing to do? No. If you own businesses, there are legitimate deduction that you can take, if you do own a business, I hope you smart enough to get an tax adviser at least. That is a smart thing to do. Nothing, will go on forever with evading. Sooner or later you will have to do your part, unless you are TRUMP.

Recently they had renovated the TB International terminal and now it is not a 3rd world airport but not one of the top ones either.  Also traffic to airport, specially to Departure lanes seems to have significantly increased once they started allowing UBER pick ups (they can't go to Arrivals can only pick up from Departures).  So , if you are dropping off passengers, might be better to drop them off at  "Arrivals" and then have them walk up to "Departure" .

Of all the things he said, this statement I probably agreed with the most. LAX is a total dump and I've been to third world country airports which were way nicer.  I've also been to 3rd world airports which were way worse.

Sounds like none of you have gone through Tom Bradley yet.

I picked someone up recently. So I went to the international arrival terminal where they came out of the tunnel. The terminal was remodled if I remember correctly. There's like a 711 and a store that sells Apple products.

There's traffic, but doesn't airports have traffic in general.
