Tulosyy, Terveystalon määräaikaistarkastus. Välillä kipua hartioissa, sormissa puutumisoireita. Asiakas kertoo tekevänsä kausiluonteista tiimityötä pakkauslinjastolla, ajoittain epäergonomisissa asennoissa. Pitkän työkokemuksen myötä löytänyt kuitenkin toimivattavat tonttuilla, vielä seuraavatkin sata vuotta.

Tarvitsisin auton heti käyttöön. Talvikäyttöön, mökkireissukäyttöön, hiihtoretkikäyttöön tai oikeastaan sähkökäyttöön. Käyttöautosta tuhansia autoja joka käyttöön jo 55 vuoden ajan. Myös kotiin toimitettuna.

Käyttöauto. Arkeen ja unelmiin. In the dark of night, Donald Trump running out of the White House, basically sneaking on to Air Force One and flying to Asia for a trip. We're 24 days into the government shutdown and Donald Trump's decision is to leave the country. This is the first president in US history to leave the country during an active government shutdown, a government shutdown that Donald Trump has caused. This while food lines are being seen throughout the United States. According to CNN, about 1.4 million federal employees in the United States are now either on unpaid leave or still working without pay because of the Trump government shutdown. And we're seeing massive lines for free food across the United States,
Ben Meiselas 2:28
with federal workers and others who are making up these food lines right now during this economy where Donald Trump has helped the billionaires but has destroyed the lives of 99% of Americans. This is Trump's America. Food lines like we saw in COVID are back. Hunger in America is on page one of multiple news outlets from Indianapolis, Boston, Milwaukee to Tennessee. Look at the Knoxville News Sentinel. 690,000 individuals from Tennessee could see their SNAP benefits lapse. What about hunger pangs? This right here, food pantries are low on food. A snap lapse could make it worse. That's from the Indy Star. How about in Boston where the governor says that food aid is at risk there for 1 million in that state.
Ben Meiselas 3:24
Or we can go to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, where 700,000 in the state fear the loss of food assistance. Food share funding is running out as the federal shutdown continues. And while Donald Trump is taking this trip to Malaysia, as Donald Trump is out there saying that Ronald Reagan was a lover of tariffs or whatever the hell he's saying on the plane. The Trump administration is saying that it won't go into any emergency funds or take any immediate action to pay food aid. the more than 42 million people in this country who rely on supplemental nutrition assistance program may starve to death. Let me repeat that 42 million people may starve to death because Donald Trump also wants to rip away the healthcare of 20 million Americans while giving a $40 billion bailout to Argentina and
Ben Meiselas 4:25
which basically has already been eviscerated because the Argentine peso is still crashing. And then Donald Trump ups the ante and says, you know what, American cattle ranchers, we're going to screw you also. We're going to get our beef now from Argentina. Screw you. The tariffs are already causing you real serious problems as your costs go up. Now we're getting our beef from Argentina. But Donald Trump says, look, he's got a plan. He says this really wealthy guy gave him $130 million to help fund the military. A private individual contributing $130 plus million to the U.S. military? What the hell does that even mean? And by the way, the military budget for for payroll in a given year is about $170 billion for active duty reserve for the payroll.
