I wonder where I've heard that non sequitur before. :sneaky: Oh, yeah, it's not the gun that actually kills but those who use the guns. Likewise, it ain't Hollywood that fucks the mind of vulnerable children who are prone to violence but it's actually the other way around. Kids are drawn to...

Welcome back @margin_gamble. Don't be too alarmed if you get thrown out again.

Oh, I'm sure Xi Jinping knew 3 years ago what he needed to do to destabilize the West. The real question is, do YOU (and everyone in the West) know what would happen in the next 3 years? __________________ "The whole secret lies in confusing the enemy, so that he cannot fathom our real...

I agree it's a sticky subject, considering that the US touts itself as a as a guardian of democracy. However, in the long run, I think there must be a safeguard in place to stop Chinese utilizing our technology to threaten that same democracy we cherish. I personally witnessed Tiananmen square...

What's the difference? Aren't they the two faces of the same coin?

Hey @Baron, you need to create "Dislike" button.

But why do I get the feeling that Chinese orchestrated the present inflationary climate with their zero-corona BS, thereby creating a supply bottleneck? Wasn't that their intention all along, namely to destabilize the West, especially the US?

So would locking up those who work for Chinese be a better solution? Even though I agree that stripping one's citizenship is going too far, this mandate is in effect the same thing as any previous sanctions the US government has imposed against other countries (eg, Iran, North Korea, etc). If...

Raising the Fed rate from 0% to 4% (400%) is more dramatic than, say, from 4% to 8% (100%), wouldn't ya say? Not that it will go up as high as 8%. If that would ever happen, there will be riots all over the world and our beloved Fed Chairman will be facing a firing squad. One more, I think...

Not only that, but how many people will sit out the entire cycle? Only Warren Buffet and his acolytes would do that, and they won't give a shit about all these psychobabble anyway.

No, the keyword is control and I don't think Powell is Volcker. He acts like he is, but is he? I don't think so.

The problem is that the Fed knows that they are between a rock and some creepy place called recession. Also they're under immense pressure from Wall Street. As I pointed out elsewhere, Powell and his cronies will likely cave in. That said, would you say the next interest hike will be 50 or 75...

True, not everyone can get one of these... :D

Dude, there's ALWAYS something in the offing. Economic events, earnings, news, etc. If what you say is true, we can only go down, period. So why bother? :rolleyes:

So, in another word, these "big boys" set you up. They played you, bro.

zzz Today feels like one of them "yeah, whatever" days. Can we just make up our minds and go either up or down?

This is a perfect example of how one troll can end up trashing another's thread. Tzz tzz

I guess the dude wasn't happy with his salary. ______________________________________________________________________

Not that I want to spoil the fun, but this could just be a big thud. I mean, it wouldn't be any surprise for the permabears to exclaim "See, I told you so".

Oh c'mon, man up for once. :banghead: Send it via PayPal as requested.
