Economics Thread

Was in with a metal building contractor today. They have started to purchase all us steel since the tariffs have eliminated chinas slave labor price advantage.

He did say they didn’t have to prepay for as much bulk product when dealing with US as they did with China

People are going to be amazed at how much of a blowout 26 we are about to have.

Capex is through the roof.

It is leaner, and its not corn finished.

You have the processor add some beef fat to it, and boom can't tell the difference. They do that with my sausage (wild pork and deer) and it turns out really great. I get my sausage smoked so its not that raw fatty stuff that makes the grill flare up like store bought.

As long as someone is ok paying the processor fee which is likely 150-200 bucks I'll provide anyone with a deer that wants it.

Deer tenderloin is as good as it gets folks. Can give you the recipe and everything.

Bro where are you at that you have all this deer lol. After my dad and his friends passed I've lost the places I used to hunt back home and been too busy to find any places here. Buy I'll take you up on this offer. I agree that deer tenderloin is the best.

FInd a place with woods haha.

Deer are huge up in my neck of the woods. I don't hunt though. Too early, too much effort, and I'd rather just eat beef anyway.

Meh it's more of I don't have access to the land than not knowing where they are at. Very little public land to hunt on here and what is available has too many crackheads on it that have zero hunting awareness. It's mostly private here and it's either you know someone or hand over a ton of cash for a lease that I don't have time to work.

Yeah that’s becoming more of a common problem I think. I moved to GA after getting married and suddenly hunting or fishing were a lot more difficult. I knew a lot more people in NC who allowed me access to their land and there was more public land to use, especially for fishing. There are hardly any streams you can get to here, and those are ridiculously over fished.

Yeah that sucks. Luckily public fishing is ok here, even great if you have a boat, but hunting is pretty much a no go. Hoping to buy some land in the next 5 years so I can scratch that itch.
 
Good week by the c2c rankings for Trump economic rhetoric.

deregulating quarterly reporting is good policy (semi annual)

Raising social security age is common sense and needed. We are otherwise headed towards a path that leads to austerity measures

Trump and Xi having constructive dialogue where both sides release statements saying the discussion went well is important for rebuilding a healthy sustainable relationship with China

Good job Donald

So are a lot of things. A healthy dialogue with China is a start, but let’s not forget that we’ve had months where he could have made progress there or we could have just not broken it in the first place.

Yeah silly things like creating leverage against China with other trading partners wasn't essential.

If you'll admit that Olson isn't the best 1b in baseball, I'll let you hunt on my land. I have 77 acres, and no one hunts on it (that I know about) haha

Make friends? Not being so off putting socially really helps.

I've had my eye for a bit on the campchef woodwind pro. It was hovering around 1500, I was hoping to wait out for a sale to get it around 1200-1300. instead they had a price hike to 2000.
