Re: I'M OUT!

+ the news is infotainment and propaganda, and tech will continue making that worse.

Fed raised rates and defended the dollar, 30 year at 3.64%. There will be some pain but not hyperinflation. In the next flight to safety ima dump it all @1.5%

Re: I'M OUT!

Now you panic, after martial law was lifted? We've done inflationary defaults before. Nixon shock, 2009 bailouts. It is concerning that they're bailing out banks again before the "covid emergency" is even over. Anywho, the Fed defended the dollar, 30 year is 3.6%. PP holds up in theory until long bo...

Re: Silicon Valley Bank Failure

You should get 0 or negative rate on instantly available cash. If you want a return you should have to tie up your money for a few months, that would mitigate bank runs. I dont know anyone who needs 250,000 liquidity always instantly available. Business should have to pay for high limits like that I...

Re: The Twitter Files

A big chunk of the left knows everyone is lying, and they are OK with it because ends justify means. Dems offer utopia through wealth redistribution, conservatives (only a few) point out that economics is trade-offs, and the kids aren't tryna' hear that https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1637052668...

Social media has made it easier to stay home all day. Less boredom. Jobs are more technical. Most people either cant code or would rather not. Dating is getting stranger.
