The high level company goals are not going to change, though, especially at a publicly traded company. Regardless of the adversity through the year, the goal will still be to make money. A business trying to lose as little money as possible instead of trying to make money will have some big changes coming.

I had a neighbor that refurbished banjo ukeleles and other head instruments. Don't see the tiny banjos very often!

Not true, the cough syrup with dxm and acetaminophen will get you tripping balls and throwing up cherry flavored disgustingness. Spend the extra money and get the dxm only.

I guess if you ignore the source material. Kind of like the criticisms of the Westworld TV show that thought it would be a better show if the robots didn't revolt and it just explored the park...

And Stanley Kubrick was paid by the CIA to secretly write popular songs. He also is the true writer of such hits as Flying Purple People Eater and the Theme From a Summer Place.

I haven't touched my HSA in 8 years and instead think of it as my emergency medial then retirement medical fund.

> Any harvestable trees are first logged and sold worldwide, mostly to pulp paper plants in the US and Canada.
I work in the paper industry in the US and there is little to no reason to import fiber for pulp. The company I work for actually exports pulp. 100% of our fiber comes from the US. I'd wager that the paper industry in Brazil receives the majority of the locally harvested fiber if we are making baseless claims. At least my unsubstantiated claim makes economic sense.
Edit: Brazil is one of the top 10 paper producing countries. https://www.iea.org/news/iea-deepens-cooperation-with-brazil-with-new-benchmarking-report-on-the-pulp-and-paper-sector
