I spent my hard scrounged money from granddad on a gameboy I purchased from them while on a visit to the states in 87.

Wait, the Game Boy came out in '87? o_O

Toys "R" Us wasn't as ubiquitous here in Malaysia, but their jingle "I don't wanna grow up" was etched very deeply into my memories.

Time for Trump to take heed of President Xi of PRC recent speech at the China's (Bao Dai) Economic Forum. Xi is promoting open trade and has spelt out moves China will be taking i.e. opening its markets to automobile imports, China's financial sector, foreign investments etc. China's wise strategy now is all for opening up and support for global trade. Trump must not be mistaken that Xi is "afraid" of Trump's recent proposed Trade War & US protectionism measures . The US Administration urgently needs to have more experienced people & those conversant in Global Trade Issues rather than "hawks", and confused/belligerent advisors.

The Dear Leader Trump is doing everything he can to distract the masses from that Russian probe and investigation that could lead him to impeachment.

Our economy is perhaps BETTER than it has ever been. Companies doing really well, and moving back to America, and jobs numbers are the best in 44 years.

I have a large number of fortune 50 clients. I don't know a single one moving jobs to the US. In fact, they are all looking at significantly more automation and jobs outside the US. They cannot find cheap labor and the STEM workers are dwindling and expensive and they are unwilling to increase wages.

Looking at jobs numbers is the wrong thing to gauge the health of an economy on.
