Instead of talking down to socialists as if your opinion of them will change their perspective... what those couple of capitalists among you need to do is give them reason to believe in something that they haven't had the chance to experience for themselves... gainful employment.
@TheBigMoneyShow @KennedyNation @AshWebsterFBN @dagenmcdowell @BrianBrenberg @JackieDeAngelis The question about big cities and socialism vs manufacturing... You've got to find a way to get city residents to the places of manufacturing... because socialism is going to continue to explode in areas without demand for skilled trades if that doesn't happen.

The people who call you "stupid" for not participating in a rigged game will be the same people who will be crying for more rigging of the game when it flips on their head... What makes them"right"is that they will have their cries satisfied...then go back to calling you stupid.

The Fed says monetary policy works through the “financial channel” … influence markets to rise (by easing) or “moderate” (by hiking). With every market in the green, as shown below, what problem is the Fed trying to fix by cutting? What financial channel needs “help?”
Every major asset class is in the green so far this year, the first time we've seen that since 2019. It's rare for the Fed to ease monetary policy into rising inflation and a melt-up in the equity/credit markets. And investors absolutely love it. Video: https://t.co/IhoPvzP3ku

I might suggest that the people who think we can quickly put massive amounts of electricity on line to satisfy data centers are of the same delusion as those who thought we had enough raw materials and electricity to produce and power EVs for everyone.

In actuality, it is in response to global debt approaching $350T and the fiscal irresponsibility of the majority of governments. Central banks, which includes our Federal Reserve have been equally reckless and in an attempt to hedge their respective ineptitude, have been buying
The trajectory of gold (and silver) = investors lack confidence in fiat currencies. An indictment of the Fed.

For some reason, that douchebag’s name has reappeared, this week…. So, as a reminder:
Blinken organized a disinformation campaign against the American people in 2020... he should have resigned in shame when that became public information, but like every other member of this Administration, he is not bound by truth, honor, or good faith. https://t.co/LGNAnflTsY

The Biden Admin's economic recipe was simple...maniacal, but simple: 1 Import a large supply of people,inorganically creating demand and constraining supplies. 2 Spend lots of money to fund the inorganic consumption. 3 Add layers of bureaucracy to distribute funds to themselves.
.@apolloglobal's Torsten Slok shows that "govt job growth was artificially high in 2022, 2023 & 2024. Combined w/DOGE, govt job growth is now returning to more normal levels." So Biden's supposed jobs boom had nothing to do w/economic fundamentals. And a corrective was needed.
