Republican voters really need to learn basic economics. Corporations don’t reward their lower level workers - they have a feduciary obligation to maximize benefit to shareholders.

Republicans in office don’t give two shits about workers and no one can make an argument otherwise besides just blindly believing that they do when they say it.

Idiots GOP voters, they actually thought the corps and businesses cared about them. How foolish they are. You are nothing but a peon to them. Wonder how those hundreds who got laid off feel, they can now wash dishes, because after their cobra runs out they need to work 80 hours a month to get Medicaid. LOL ,they probably voted GOP and serves them right.

It never trickles down, except rain, snow, ashes from the flames, but that is about it.

The announcement came as Harley-Davidson reported its fourth quarter and year-end financial results. The motorcycle manufacturer said its worldwide retail motorcycle sales were down 6.7 percent in 2017 when compared to the previous year.

The drop was more pronounced in this country, with U.S. sales down 8.5 percent, compared with a 3.9 percent drop overseas.

Percentage drops in the fourth quarter were even worse, with overall sales down 9.6 percent U.S. retail motorcycle sales down 11.1 percent.

I guess they should add jobs when their sales are down? Moron!

It is their money and their company to run as they see fit. You are neither entitled to judge or make demands of any sort

People can't afford Harleys anymore. Just as good due to head injuries and disability, if they are lucky they just die.

Yet they all want to go without a helmet. A real biker wears a helmet with a facemask, long pants , a leather jacket and boots.

Yes we see them with shorts, flip flops or sandals, and little scarfs.

So less bikers, as they are either disabled or dead.

 

[buckeye45_73]

LOL, I love it when lefties talk about subjects, they know nothing about it's hilarious. They think showing every job loss will matter, to people who know how business works.......their jedi propaganda doesn't work on the strong minded, only the weak ones like their base.

See, I know Penelope isn't a huge trump fan, but she atleast knows there are tons of factors and I agree with her that you should wear helmets, jackets, boots and long pants.....anything else is asking for injury......or death...no thanks.

All of that nonsense has NOTHING to do with Harley jobs or manufacturing. Juat a bunch of nonsensical bullshit from a moronic female who obviously doesn't know jack shit.
People who ride Harleys do not wear sandals, shorts or scarve.

I think she may have been talking about bikes in general. I do see people wearing flip flops on them and I'm like that is dumb.

I live in a beach resort. I see dumb azz's wearing sandals, no helmets, shorts and shirtless on Harley's all the time. Everyday during the summer. Flying down the busy highways and streets at high speeds.

I agree, it's dumb, I think its up to the riders as to what they wear, but if you're stupid, you're gonna get hurt.

I have gone down enough to know better. Protective footwear and gloves are absolute necessities. Once my ass was saved, literally my ass, by a thick leather belt, chain wallet and bandana in my other back pocket. I slid on those things for a hundred feet and they took the scraping instead of my ass.

Lol you idiot. Why didn’t they just use the money they saved on their profit shortage? They could have invested it. Why did only the shareholders benefit? Either way, they can afford to have a drop in demand.
