Re: Reasons why I will not be getting injected for the Wuhan
I'm hoping Trump doesn't run so De Santis can get the nomination. It's not that I don't like Trump but he comes with too much baggage at this point and if he gets elected he'll be a lame duck president before he even gets started. I think 8 years of DeSantis would be just what the country needs rig...

Re: Maher clips
Maher considers himself to be a "traditional liberal". As such he connects with people like me who also fall into that category and think WTF about the current left wing of the party. Is there an equivalent voice to the right of center who is witty, well-spoken and not afraid to be critic...

Crazy.

Re: Reasons why I will not be getting injected for the Wuhan
Ron Destantis is signing an anti-vaxx mandate bill today in Brandon, Florida. That seems to be more symbolic than anything else right? Biden's people claim that OSHA overrides any state rules as far as workplace safety. So if using OSHA to force vaccines goes thru then the state law would not matte...

What the media reported before and during the trial is vastly different from what came out at trial. All of the leftists believe he was a white supremacist who sought ou...

Re: What explains the disconnect between gold and Fed balance sheets since about 2013?
Fed balance sheet? Is that an oxymoron or what? I understand gyroscopic investing but how do you "balance" anything with the word "Fed" in it? You can't. You just have to live with it and play the game as best you can.

Re: Still Here... By The Skin Of My Teeth
I saw someone on the news last night, don't remember where, but they said that 1 in 4 college students had contemplated suicide during the month of June.
They attributed it to COVID but I don't know how true that is.
Anyway, Smith1776, you are apparently not alone.

Had a fellow programmer who had carpal tunnel which she eventually had outpatient surgery for.

I think you should wait and live your whole life before deciding whether it was worthwhile or not. You never know what's going to happen and what do you really have to lose if your life is so bad that you are at rock bottom? You could end up winning the lottery and marrying the most beautiful girl i...

The question is, however, what utility do they have in the real world?

Re: Highest I bond rate ever: 7.12%
Corto, TIPS have two principal issues, which I think makes them unsuitable for PP investors: 1. Interest rate risk. Unlike I-bonds, where the interest rate is known and guaranteed at the time of purchase, TIPS can turn negative, wiping out your gains from interest or capital gains (or both). I take...
