    They are also looking to off load a subsidiary. Those managers and contractors also have have families to feed.

    I feel bad for you and your beloved GOP party that you didn't get the recession you so desperately wanted.

    Thoughts and prayers to your feelings.

    The other side never has any clue how business works and makes profits and that for every Yin there is a Yang.

    Inflation occurs when the government prints money and inflates the amount of money. Fossil fuel prices are incredibly low. It's because the 12,000 people did not realize they were not providing any worth that they were fired from the company.

    Government hiring is always bad for the economy - especially when related to the military. There is nothing bad about food services. It's what people want.

    Then they can find jobs where they provide worth.

    So is Wal mart, they have contracted out to Spark. With membership you get Paramount+ and in most cases next day home delivery, same day grocery and online orders if the item in in stock..
