it closed at 25669
that's exactly where it was 8 months ago
no gains in the market in 8 months under trump (exactly when obama's last fiscal year ended)
when you have to lie blatantly, you know how weak you are
you are weak

This is actually bad news for the US. You would be wrong if you think China's and the US's economies are decoupled. Emerging market stock prices have tumbled too. Guess where all those products that US companies sell are either partly or wholly made?More MAGA! China's stock market getting raked over the coals due to tariffs.
Dow closes Friday almost hitting 27,000.
CNN..."tariffs will destroy our stock market and will not hurt China".
MAGA
Another tell that the worldwide economy (of which US is the largest contributor) has tumbled is the price of copper has fallen. Copper is used in practically everything. Buyers for practically all companies worldwide have drastically cut back on orders for copper which means that production of practically everything is about to drop. Same thing happened in 2008. Don't believe me, read and decide for yourself.

Right wingers are stuck in the old idea that markets are a zero sum game where one person loses and another wins. That would be wrong too. China's losses are going to be US's losses before too long. Maybe by this winter or next year the pigeons will come home to roost.

You're right, I see it all the time too. There's no shortage of idiot truck drivers on the road. I personally don't drive too close to anyone, ever. I've been hauling 44,000 lb loads the last couple weeks, it's takes me a little extra bit to slow so I definitely haven't been tailgating.
No offense taken, carry on

You should call their company and report them to the safety manager, get these dangerous drivers off the roads. You can always get the MC numbers and report them to DOT also.

Not much call on a weed site for turning in others to authorities or cops...just saying

When someone is driving an 80,000 lb CMV dangerously or aggressive, I don't see it as a problem to report the driver.

Fair play but that isn't the natural inclination of most underground growers

I haven’t ever had to do that until a few weeks ago
After flipping off a tailgating truck he just started fucking with me
When he blew by the name and number of the small moving company he worked for was plastered on the side
I figured he was too dumb not to get reported at that point

There's a new following distance law in California, I think it's three hundred feet for semi-trucks, I'll look up the details.

It's pretty common for automobiles to follow too close for the semi driver to see them in their mirrors. If you can't see their mirrors, they can't see you. I don't know if there is a law about that but I'd call somebody in if they did that if there were. I despise aggressive tailgaters, no matter the size of the vehicle.

I have been known to toss a empty plastic pop bottle out my window and have it bounce off the hood of a tailgater or two.

Yes, I can't stand it when cars do that when I'm in my work truck, don't like it much either when I'm in my personal truck.
It's the law in all 50 states, you have to travel a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you.

So it’s not ok for him to report a truck driver but him threatening growers on this weed site with feds is just fine with you. You say nothing.
You do belong with the little group of hysterical hypocrites. Nice job!

You may not overtake and pass another vehicle which is moving at less than 20 mph on a grade (outside a business or residential district) unless you can pass that vehicle at least 10 mph faster than it is travelling and the pass can be completed within 1/4 mile (CVC §2175
. You must not follow the vehicles listed below any closer than 300 feet. The rule does not apply during overtaking and passing, when there are 2 or more lanes for traffic in each direction, or in a business or residential district (CVC §21704).
Okay, so this is what I understand, a truck driver was recently cited near me for following another truck too closely, I believe the two trucks were owned by one company. Look out if you head West.
