It has been explained to you numerous times that the Dow is not the economy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._economic_performance_by_presidential_party "Since World War II, the United States economy has performed significantly better on average under the administration of Democratic presidents than Republican presidents. The reasons for this are debated, and the observation applies to economic variables including job creation, GDP growth, stock market returns, personal income growth, and corporate profits. The unemployment rate has risen on average under Republican presidents, while it has fallen on average under Democratic presidents. Budget deficits relative to the size of the economy were lower on average for Democratic presidents.[1][2] Ten of the eleven U.S. recessions between 1953 and 2020 began under Republican presidents.[3] Of these, the most statistically significant differences are in real GDP growth, unemployment rate change, stock market annual return, and job creation rate.[4][5]

It will also make sure that America remains an economic engine, and meets the environmental and energy challenges of this century. Investing in high-speed rail: Creates Jobs: Building high-speed rail will create hundreds of thousands of jobs. Every $1 billion in investment creates 24,000 jobs. These are highly skilled jobs that will revitalize the domestic rail industries supplying transportation products and services. Many additional jobs are created through the commerce fostered through the economic activity and development which they spark. Increases Economic Activity: Every $1 invested creates $4 in economic benefits. Upgrading passenger operations on newly revitalized tracks, bridges and rights of way is spurring business productivity along corridors. The rail services will connect America’s economically vital mega-regions and help keep them mobile, productive, efficient and internationally competitive. Reduces Congestion and Boosts Productivity: Congestion on our nation’s roads costs $140 billion in lost time and productivity. The U.S. population is projected to grow by another 100 million people in the next 40 years. The population growth is creating mega-regions that will not prosper unless they can be freed from the stranglehold of highway and airport congestion. At the same time, the United States cannot build enough highway capacity or airport runways to meet demand. Reduces the Nation’s Dependence on Foreign Oil: Implementing high-speed rail will keep billions of dollars in the U.S. economy by decreasing the amount of oil that the U.S. consumes. According to the International Association of Railways (UIC), high-speed rail is eight times more energy efficient than airplanes and four times more efficient than automobile use. It will also decrease greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality. Expands Travel Choices and Improves Mobility: High-speed rail can deliver people from one downtown to another as fast as or faster than air travel. The addition of HSR as an integrated part of America’s transportation system will help airports work better and highways work better. It will also expand options for citizens in rural and small urban communities with increased transfer points and feeder services that connect with new HSR corridors. source; https://www.apta.com/research-technical-resources/high-speed-passenger-rail/benefits-of-high-speed-rail-for-the-united-states/

Building infrastructure is "left wing ideology?"

Yes, it should have been built long ago. Same with the rail line connection Edmonton and Calgary.

It's because Trump has made a habit of claiming things that are completely fictitious. His followers just emulate him. Facts do not matter to them. Just look at polls as to who would perform better with the US economy.

Why does it matter? Trump supporters are not intelligent enough to understand Saturday Night Live skits. They tend to watch Beavis and Butthead, since it appeals to adults with the maturity and knowledge of young teenage boys. Kind of like what Elon Musk is doing right now, with his million dollar giveaways, and libel against Dominion Voting Systems?

Ouch! You guys now own @gatomontes99

Talk is cheap. You need to substantiate your argument with credible sources.

7-4 for the Jets. They lead the NHL. Back to debating.

Jets defeat the Lightning. They lead the NHL with a 11-1-0 record.

We are posting on a Canadian forum...

I'll debate with you in 30 minutes. I want to see the conclusion of the Winnipeg Jets game.

Actually, myself and others have provided several sources and charts over and over again. You're M.O. is to say "You are lying! I am right!" You have never provided credible sources to back up your arguments. It's like debating with a small petulant child.

Tax cuts for the rich and large corporations only. Reducing regulation, when climate change is a massive issues, is foolish. Now you are being ridiculous.

Everything you stated can be easily disproven.

3 times the population.

I sure hope America chooses Democracy over Fascism. Trumo and Vance would destroy America.

The UCP is the worst Government ever. They cancelled funding for a LRT line in Calgary, and would never implement this project. It was previous Governments who championed high speed rail. Smith soes not believe in transportation that does not rely on oil and gas.

thoughts?

“I support candidates who demonstrate a clear commitment to improving health care, reducing poverty and fighting climate change in the U.S. and around the world,” Gates said in the statement. “I have a long history of working with leaders across the political spectrum, but this election is different, with unprecedented significance for Americans and the most vulnerable people around the world.” Bill Gates is a rare example of a man who gave back to the community many times over. Way to go, Bill.

or Jian Ghomeshi, who was ironically left wing.

You really are a numbskull... Just wait until trump gets in office. He will sellout the Ukrainians so fast, that it will make your head spin.

Reagan was not unpredictable.

Very sad news, but a preview of what is to come, if Trump is elected.
