> why don’t lockdowns continue indefinitely? I mean if it saves one life right? Why not, what do you actually need "freedom" for? Pandemic + climate restrictions and most will know its BS, but will be happy to get monopoly money and watch netflix. Its what we deserve. The "based" Youtube commenters ...

S&P isnt the market, they apply a quality screen Arnott claims any random bag of stocks does better than cap weight https://www.morningstar.com/articles/613704/arnott-on-the-key-to-smart-beta Whats the narrative tho, if YOU can outperform how exactly is the market being stupid about the stock prices...

I plan for 0. Work as much as I can and spend as little. Ive seen retirement destroy more people than its helped. 2% nominal is Fed target and their legal power to print is only increasing.

> didn't have lockdowns like China/Straya

Not yet, thats why line gets drawn here

No jab no job. No job no $ for housing and food

I suppose my opinion is known. . .DeSantis can do whatever he wants in exchange for merely claiming he wont lock down the state again. The Left initiated violence and now I'm forced to vote for pro-life and other regressive conservatives because nothing matters if I cant run my small business. The g...

Government needs to be shrunk/obstructed/gridlocked by any means necessary. If thats not what "republicans" are doing here, then its bad. edit1: if you want to expand only the good and smart aspects of government, that negotiation begins with admitting the flagrant civil rights violations of 2020-2023

Elon needs to buy this place and unban everyone

yeah its that simple. Relatedly, r/ "news" has devolved into leftist rage-porn. https://old.reddit.com/r/news/top/?sort=top&t=week

Unis got 70 billion in direct covid handouts. The NIH etc research grants are from the gov, and the student loans are from the gov. And the assets in endowments roughly track the amount of money printing. Even in the 90s at Stanford, Libertarianism or Objectivism/Ayn Rand was not mentioned once, eve...

Buy the rumor sell the news

A great tragedy of the human experience is that basic scientists are so poorly compensated.

Also the AMA is a cartel, we could have 3x as many doctors and pay less for healthcare.

> in the event of a serious banking crisis or a nasty recession the Fed could revert to its old habits

Then thats what we'll get. Will the Little Guy have time to buy cheap assets like 2009? He didnt have much time to in the March 2020 crash

I fill my belly with pure ethanol every night, the bugs seem ok with it.

That said id like to work pickled red cabbage into the routine, in case the probiotic and pigment/antioxidant stuff is true

They do this every year right. Anything new this time. IIRC some years ago they went further and closed national parks

The Chinese are known to overreact eh

Maybe feds want a banking crisis to force digital currency, which can be restricted as needed. Pre-2020 I posted here that "FedBux" would be a good idea.

> Can you give more details on your rewards checking account
