Bloomberg: Farmers and machinists are not too bright

[GVF]

There is truth to this... and can you say that you don't use anything produced by someone who either is or was of a liberal ideology? Such as Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates or Steve Jobs?

And can you say you don't eat food produced by farmers that would typically be conservative. We all use products that suit us, except when we boycott P&G for being satanic.

 

[Orange defense]

Well, my uncle has a farm, and I can tell you it’s a lot more than just planting a seed. Where did we get this dude at? Uranus?

If right wing media is digging up things from 4 years ago, that can only mean that Bloomberg is rising in the polls. Even taken at face value, this is pretty old stuff.

So Bloomberg's "grab 'em by the combine" comment doesn't count?

Sorta like Fox News. Massage Dear Leader's scrotum, get a prime time slot.

In with trump quip 3 posts in, you are on it EL.

It is funny you say that... I had an uncle who worked for Procter and Gamble in the 80's when that crazy hullabaloo over the moon logo surfaced.

He's no idiot, just an out of touch elitist.

When you order everything you eat and everything is brought to you, the realization doesn't occur to you that was someone's labor. He's been out of touch for years.

Best response that I’ve seen so far

Appreciate Brit Hume.

I wonder when was the last time Bloomers has even been to the grocery store.

I was offered a job at their Charmin factory as a graduating ChemE in 1976. No thanks P & G!

Don't forget electricity comes out of that little thingy in the wall. That's why electric cars are pollution free. I'm trusting that blue ink wasn't necessary there. Seriously, though, everything is simple for the person who does nothing to produce or manufacture it; in a way it's not hard to understand why libs cloistered in cities are so ignorant about the complexity of life.

I have always wanted to see a scientific measurement of energy generation efficiencies. Power plants are very inefficient with transmission loses etc but petroleum has high transportation and refining costs. A real in depth detailed study to measure efficiencies.

 

[AM64]

What do you think is more reliable, traditional polling or those betting sites on candidates? Curious.

Good question, but the fact that people stand to lose money when betting, and pollsters never seem to lose anything (including credibility), I think I'd go with betting sites ... more at risk.

Yeah, I was a teen then. I can't remember if mom and dad did that, but I do remember people at church not buying P&G products. Even as a teen and our generally wise thinking, I never could connect a major US company and Satanism.

You guys post Trump tweets from 7-8 years ago.

But that's different....

transportation cost understood. But, never have got the high refining costs for base fuels and oils. It's basically a glorified still with evap levels that feed off where each "grade" of oil and fuel condense back to solid, so to speak. But, to see a refinery...that is one massive still. The process itself may be efficient. building the apparatus is definitely some serious benjamins.

He's a morally despicable human for wanting to grab someone by their combine.

 

[McDad]

I trust opinion backed by money more then someone’s opinion backed by nothing.

Good point

Yea I lived in Houston for several years and they are unbelievably massive and expensive.

Me, too. I have a strong bias away from electric vehicles, but without any way to substantiate it either way ... and I am an engineer retired from nuclear power generation. Likewise, I don't believe that watering down gasoline with ethanol is productive either. You really have to do an exhaustive analysis ... one not designed to prove a point or make a case for something.

It's not just food, corn (starch) is in everything - from the gypsum board in your house, to the charcoal on your grill, to the paper you write on, to the box that Amazon delivered to your house.

Four yrs is nothing..... try 30+ for a Supreme Court justice.

Yea like ethanol. They have that big refinery in Loudon. Big bucks. But to plant corn harvest it and transport and refine it is actually more efficient?

According to @Purple Tiger, my dad and step son don't know anything about farming, since they did R&D into that seed that got planted. Or the soil it got planted into. There's not a commercial farm, or modestly successful private farmer that don't have people like them onsite during planting and harvest. What a farmer actually does, as respectful as it is, is only a fraction of what goes into his farming.

What did my dad do? He TAUGHT people how to farm. How to grow crops for themselves and for their own country and it's citizens. He spent time in virtually every third world country on earth teaching how to farm what they developed for each varying climate so the country could feed it's people.

I mentioned it a week ago, he has enough skeletons to build a dinosaur.

I use propane... taste the meat not the heat.

All things Bloomberg is that a farmer isn't ......
Rich and
A big city blowhard...

Kind of like someone else we know.
