Wall street meltdown

People are overreacting, its nothing compared to 2008 (yet, we will see if it will be). It will come back. Just don't panic sell and let your funds recover.
And, if you want to buy something, now is a great time.

It should recover within 1-2 years, at the very most 5 years (very extreme, unlikely). Its not a big deal, just hold and wait it out, and use it as an opportunity to buy funds at a discount.

Not wasting my time on a liberal hit piece. Going to say that the more regulations the better just for the sake of more regulations.

Since you won't read it I'll cut and paste some salient bits for your perusal.

" the Trump administration policy was for the US to attain energy independence based on fossil fuel use and to rescind many environmental regulations.[2] By the end of Trump's term, his administration had rolled back 98 environmental rules and regulations, leaving an additional 14 rollbacks still in progress."

"Trump and his cabinet appointees did not believe the consensus of most scientists that climate change will have catastrophic impacts[10] nor that carbon dioxide is a primary contributor to climate change.[11] Trump pulled the United States out of the Paris climate accord, leaving the U.S. the only nation that was not part of the agreement. He avoided environmental discussions at both the 44th G7 summit held in Canada and the 45th G7 summit"

"The administration repealed the Clean Water Rule and rewrote the EPA's pollution-control policies—including policies on chemicals known to be serious health risks—particularly benefiting the chemicals industry"

There's nothing "liberal" about the facts / truth.

I've said before, the extent of Trumps practice of environmental policy is that he knows when he sits in his NY apartment and throws some trash away, someone will come and make it disappear.

All good things!

Climate change IS a scam. Follow the money. Ever notice this treaty is about sending money from the USA to other countries? As China is allowed to keep polluting?

But......no mention of any negative results! Flint, MI's water problems happened under the old regs. Yet again, you do not rate effectiveness on how many regs are written, you rate them on results.

It's a policy issue: regressive vs. progressive.

Trump will sell us out with short term success while the hidden cost pile's up. Every con artist knows that angle.

Make any example you want, it doesn’t improve the stink on the Don. Maybe try a could barrels of Clorox. Better buy wholesale to save money. You need a lot.

No stink on him, his record is peace and prosperity.
