sonoflincoln confirmed here that his 401k grew under Trump, yet downplayed the rise percentage.
Why don't you stop lying on me. Bunch of baloney you are spitting out. What I said was that I lost about 80% of my 401K through my Ariel Investments during George Bush Jnr Iraq and Afghanistan wars when America was hemorrhaging 700.000 jobs monthly and all the Blue Chips companies were going belly up. That was what led Obama to defeat McCain in a landslide. Obama came in and did structural adjustments infused with money in the economy and the economy came back big time and I recovered my money when the Dow Jones went from 6.000 points Bush left to 18.450 when Obama handed over to Trump. I gained some with Trump when he came in and it kind of frozen from there. Bottomline, I gained a little under Trump. Get your facts right please.

Covid drug given to Trump developed using cells derived from aborted fetus
Trump touts Regeneron antibody cocktail as a potential ‘cure’ while he has consistently sought to restrict abortion access


https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/08/trump-covid-drug-developed-using-cells-derived-from-abortion

One of the drugs taken by Donald Trump that he has touted as a potential “cure” for coronavirus was developed using human cells originally obtained from an elective abortion, a practice repeatedly denounced by the president and many of his supporters.

The drug is a monoclonal antibody cocktail developed by Regeneron. The president received an 8-gram infusion under a “compassionate use” exemption when he was hospitalized over the weekend after testing positive for Covid-19. There is no cure for Covid-19, and the drug is not approved.

The stem cells used to develop the drug are known as HEK-293T cells, a line of cells used in laboratories. The cells were originally derived from an embryonic kidney after an elective abortion performed in the Netherlands in the 1970s.

Trump has consistently sought to restrict abortion access, including most recently, when he nominated the conservative Catholic Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the supreme court last month. The anti-abortion movement is one of Trump’s most enthusiastic bases of support.

The 2020 Republican party platform explicitly opposes embryonic stem cell research, and calls for a ban on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research.

Trump has already limited research using embryonic stem cells for ideological reasons. In 2019, his administration paused funding for government scientists to work on studies involving embryonic stem cells, affecting about $31m in research, according to Science Magazine.

“We stopped the federal funding of fetal tissue research, which everybody felt was so important …” the president told supporters in January 2020. “We’re standing up to the pro-abortion lobby like never before.”

The HEK-293T line of cells has been “immortalized”, meaning they divide freely in the lab. Regeneron said the company does not consider the cells “tissue”.

“It’s how you want to parse it,” a Regeneron spokeswoman, Alexandra Bowie, told the MIT Technology Review. “But the 293T cell lines available today are not considered fetal tissue, and we did not otherwise use fetal tissue.”

Development of the Regeneron antibody cocktail is supported by a $450m grant from the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (Barda).

The Susan B Anthony List, a leading US anti-abortion group, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. However, the anti-abortion movement has weighed in on other Covid-19 drugs in development. At least five Covid-19 vaccine candidates used either HEK-293T cells or a proprietary line of cells developed by Janssen from a 1985 elective abortion.

In April, the influential US Conference of Catholic Bishops wrote to the US government to ask that it “incentivize” vaccine candidates developed without use of such cells.

“It is critically important that Americans have access to a vaccine that is produced ethically: no American should be forced to choose between being vaccinated against this potentially deadly virus and violating his or her conscience,” the letter said, as reported by Science Magazine.

Regeneron has worked with the US government to develop monoclonal antibody therapies for years. In 2018, researchers from Regeneron and the US government used the same line of stem cells in development of a therapy for the Ebola virus, according to a study published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases.

“Research using such stem cells allows Regeneron to model complex diseases, test new drug candidates and can help unlock new scientific insights that ultimately could lead to the discovery of new treatments for people with serious diseases,” Regeneron said in an April 2020 statement.

Regeneron’s drug is not available to the public and has been tested on only 275 people to date. Therapies in the same class as Regeneron’s antibody cocktail cost on average more than $96,000 per course.

The Trump administration has worked systematically to limit abortion access in the United States and abroad. Vice-President Mike Pence has said: “I long for the day Roe v Wade is sent to the ash heap of history,” referring to the US supreme court decision which has allowed for women to obtain legal abortions since 1973.

Factcheck.org is a leftist site. they had this to say about Kamala claim of loss of jobs.

Harris falsely claimed Trump’s China trade war cost 300,000 manufacturing jobs. The U.S. gained 146,000 factory jobs during the first 18 months after the tariffs took effect.

She quoted that article from Moodys you pasted here.

That's why I like you even though we are on the opposite side of the spectrum. When Bush Jnr started the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan, American economy was ok not great but after US was spending $5 billion weekly for years on the wars, the economy started collapsing and the body bags coming from Iraq and Afghanistan turned Americans against the war and that's when Dow Jones, Nasdaq and SP started fumbling and Down Jones came down to 6.000 points from about 14.000 points and the Blue Chips companies were going bankrupt. That's when yours truly was scared to death because in America, our 401k is our lifeline to our comfortable retirement. Obama came in Jan 2009 and did the right thing and the stock market rose up with Dow Jones went all the way to over 18.400 points which Trump inherited from Obama.

Tax cut is good for business.

The more tax cut, the more billionaires want to invest thus creating more job for people.

When you increase tax of rich people, they move else where

Failed during Reagan and has made OK and KS one of the poorest states in the country.

Why don't you STFU and talk about your own country.
It failed in the Texas of the North (Alberta) too.
Illiterates and rednecks love hearing tax cuts for businesses cos they are too dumb to understand how businesses operate in this era.

Here you go showing you know nothing about economics. Who doesn't know the meaning of GDP? Gdp is a pattern to show how greatly there economy has moved faster than the u.s in the last 20 years, in year 2000 there GDP was 1.211 trillion, that same year the US GDP was 10.25 trillion, right now there GDP is 13 trillion, while the US GDP is 20 trillion, can you see they are moving much more faster. I hope you get it now, this is one of the reasons trump lost the trade war. They are coming for the us.

trump lost which trade war? do you know what you are writing about

Without the US, china is dead. China is filled with manufacturing from the US, if Us companies moves to another country, there will be mass unemployment in China.

GDP is nothing, i have explained it to you already, GDP is all about Productivity of the people

China is a developing country, US is a developed Country

China per capital income is 9,770.85 USD the US per capital income is 62,794.59 USD so the 2 countries are faraway from each other.

China is no where near the United states in Anything, Hongkong is far developed than China percapital income in hongkong is 48,675.62 USD

Lol stop deceiving yourself, tax cuts don't help businesses, it helps there pocket. Because they keep all the extra they are making from the cuts, as I said if there are more taxes, people would be forced to inject their money into there businesses instead of paying tax on it, that way the money boosts the Business, more workers, results in lower unemployment, and a bigger economy.
Yes. The savings goes back to executives, shareholders or investment on lean/continuous improvement programs which will help slash the number of existing employees.
