Statts means deep fried chicken, and grilled burgers even you must know you don't fry burgers in a deep fat fryer.

They stopped using dripping or lard decades ago , along with wrapping in old newspapers .

Hate to break up the joke/food fest and return to the topic.

Source: Secretary of the Treasury

Trump predicted record tax revenue increases after the GOP tax cut. It's happening.

The LIBs mocked the tax cuts. Called them crumbs. Not one LIB voted for the tax cuts. Republicans, the only ones who voted in favor of allowing Americans to keep more of what they earned, said the cuts would create a great economy and increase federal tax collections.

In less than a year since the cuts were activated, tax revenues are setting records.

The unemployment numbers are still at record lows. The number of working Americans is at a record high. Wages are growing after years of stagnation. Tax revenues are up.

Historic tax revenue in October -- the first month of the fiscal year: $252+ BILLION. That translates into an $11 billion increase year over year. However, $3 billion LESS was collected in personal income taxes.

The increase resulted from increased business taxes. Corporate income tax receipts more than doubled from $3.8 billion to $8 billion year over year.

But he seems to have stopped bragging about the soaring stock market, probably because it's now down a little over 6% since his inauguration. So while tax revenues may be up, investor confidence, which was way up early in his Presidency, is now down. Just an observation.

Also Enoch Powell also got it spot on, back in the late 60's with his Rivers of Blood speech. Just have a look at the UK and Londonistan now. My Grandfather was a Powell (and also spelt with 2 L's), but I never knew his first name. Maybe it was Enoch =D> [-o< \:D/

EXTRACT: Australia joins US, Israel in refusing to sign UN migration pact =D>

Australia will not sign a United Nations migration agreement it helped negotiate “in its current form”, Peter Dutton has declared, insisting it is a matter of sovereignty. Australia has taken umbrage at parts of the final draft, which insist “migration detention” should only be used “as a measure of last resort and work towards alternatives”.

The final draft also includes a commitment to “review and revise relevant legislation, policies and practices related to immigration detention to ensure that migrants are not detained arbitrarily, that decisions to detain are based on law, are proportionate, have a legitimate purpose, and are taken on an individual basis, in full compliance with due process and procedural safeguards, and that immigration detention is not promoted as a deterrent or used as a form of cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment to migrants, in accordance with international human rights law”.

The Czech Republic will not sign a United Nations migration pact next month, joining Austria, Bulgaria, Hungary, as well as the United States, in withdrawing from the global agreement.

The Czech Republic has long favored the principle of separating legal and illegal migration,” Deputy Prime Minister told a news conference Wednesday, Reuters reported. “That is what the Czech Republic’s and other European countries’ suggestions aimed for,” he added. “The final text does not reflect those proposals.”

So, Trump is not the only Leader that his an issue with illegal Immigration into ones Country. Lets just wait and see how many other Countries follow a similar path with with their respective Border Enforcement Laws and Returning Illegals Immigrants to their starting points. :-k

You fail to mention that the stock market (S & P 500) has gone up 23% from the date President Trump was elected on 11/08/16. I would argue that is a more relevant measure if you want to judge the stock market performance on Donald Trump's election win.[/quote]Well, let's think for a minute about what that shows. The stock market is really a measure of optimism vs. pessimism. So when Trump was elected, people were very optimistic about what he would do for the country, economy, etc. And that optimism continued for quite some time. Over the past few months, however, much of that has turned to pessimism, thus the problem. He'll obviously need to turn that around before the 2020 election cycle really starts.

As a note of interest, during the same time frame since Trump's election, Britain's stock market is up 1.6%, Germany's market is up 6.8% and the Chinese market is DOWN (18.1%). Makes the American market increase of 23% even more impressive when compared to the other major markets.

And what has caused the pessimism in the markets? What has caused anything to be worse?

Jobs? No. Unemployment? No. Taxation? No. More on Welfare or Food Stamps? No.

There is one component that remained flat for 8 years under the previous administration, but has now ramped up considerably in the last 10 months. Four words: Federal Reserve Interest Rates.

That is what's different, and Trump has no control over Fed interest rates.
