  2. also economies of scale almost cutting out more of the middlemen... you're almost buying directly from the manufacturer... that's why it's much cheaper. amazon you have to buy through middle men. for example if you buy amazon direct amazon is the middle men. if you buy from 3rd party sellers they buy from a wholesaler or trading company or maybe the factory but they have to mark it up.

  3. i know people rag on china for cheap stuff and such but a reason why inflation was low in the 1990s up to the 2010s was because of super cheap stuff we got from china that helped offset the inflation...

  4. yeah i find it laughable that soldiers/sailors/airmen today have as much if not more ribbons/medals than chesty puller or audie murphy like wtf. a fresh lieutenant now has more ribbons/medals than dwight eisenhower for pete sakes.

  5. anyone figure out how so many haitians are able to make it to mexico and then the usa. to give you guys a refresher course haiti is next to dominica republic which is next to cuba. it's nowhere near the usa and its not part of the mainland which is how so many from south america were able to make it to the usa vai train/foot but unless you guys are telling me haitians are able to fly to mexico or have access to a armada of vessels to ship themselves from haiti to mexico.... i just don't see how so many of them are all of a sudden pouring in.

  6. a lot of medals and ribbons post korea are pretty much meaningless. if you don't have a MOH, DSC, silver star, or a bonze star, legion of merits or distinguished service medals... it don't really matter much. they call them fluff medals/ribbons.
