Re: Birthright citizenship
I just saw a graphic on PBS Newshour stating that ICE did more deportations in 2024 than in any other year since 2015. So, I guess that should be balanced against what technovelist would call TDS.

Re: Reneging as a form of negotiating
... So how can any country confidently come to an agreement with the United States in the face of a pattern of reneging on agreements and moving goalposts when it feels like it?

Re: the accelerated permanent portfolio
I say this with peace and love but there is nothing permanent about your investing strategies. It's always the next big thing.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's adapting to new information available!
But permanent, it ain't.

Re: Daily "Check In" Thread For Us
You originally stated it as a question, without certainty: "Didn’t Harry Browne approve of the US outsourcing manufacturing?" Now you are stating it as a certainty? ... That's right. That was before I had a beer. I was expecting a yes to my question. O0 I am 100% certain. I just don't kno...

Re: Moving up to 4.9%
… Then you can hold to maturity, capturing the term risk premium without paying for it in risk of uncertain outcomes. I love holding shorter-term bonds to maturity and getting my money back, especially when stocks are tanking. BUT, what if you have a portfolio in which you’re supposed to hold very ...

Re: US Citizen / Military Vet detained in ICE raid
I suppose, Dieter. I just think that if we compare every form of heavy-handedness to Nazis, then “nazi” loses all meaning.

Not because the Americans or British or Germans asked them to be. I’m not speaking of the hapless low level conscripts but of Ukrainian l...
