Fair enough. It is true I did not spell it out when I wrote: As an example, our President. And he is so efficient at killing he doesn't even lift a finger to do it. I will spell it out now. IMO, the president has caused excess deaths because of neglect to act, rather than by any direct...

The experts' decision that "sheltering in place" was necessary was forced because the U.S. lacked sufficient reliable data and the inability to acquire it in real time to allow other options.. Other countries did not have to totally shut down to the extent we did for as long as we will have to...

We've had record deficits. Have you seen taxes raised? By the way, all modern economies, even those in Authoritarian States, are a mix of Capitalism and Socialism. The U.S., among the largest nations, remains the country with the largest capitalist component, but it's not doing well at the...

Yah. As an example, our President. And he is so efficient at killing he doesn't even lift a finger to do it.

I apologize if this rains on your parade, however in 2018 china's death rate was 7.13 per thousand. China's population is ~1.3 billion. Assuming it's one billion they would normally need between 50 and 60 thousand urns per month nation wide. (I think maybe. I did this math in my head, so it's...

Boing, boing, bong, bing.

Even though one of our Presidents loved ones is now a potato, I can't help thinking its all for the best. Potatoes are useful. I have an entire cookbook devoted to nothing but potatoes.

In a nation with fractional reserve banking that runs on credit (a VERY good thing!) deflation is never a good thing. It's harmful in such economies because it means real interest rates will rise and that has the potential to tip an economy into recession, which unless it is handled correctly...

maybe just bring lysol to a boil and inhale the fumes deeply. Like put your head into a plasitc bag with a little boiling lysol -- just a Tablespoon. Gasoline might also work. Maybe Trump can order someone at NIH to check that out too. He is truly a "stable genius." What kind of "stable" was...

The ignorance here is palpable.

The grass is always greener on the other side. I respect your opinion on these matters, yet I am not fully in agreement. You've picked out a bunch of custom built cars to highlight, but that's a niche market for billionaires; hardly representative of the main car markets. Fiat, for the most...

If there are proven salt domes around that we could quickly convert to oil storage we should do it and fill them up. Times like these are made for great leadership to step forth and shine. Sadly, the U.S. leadership in place is the worst imaginable.

Nevertheless we should fill it up. Are there any other salt domes around we could fill?

I think Germany is the one at fault here. They are insisting on holding to obsolete economics that no longer pertain since Keynes, and since the world transitioned to fiat money. And what is the result? It is that Germany is on the edge of recession. An economic state brought on by their own...

We need better leadership!

allowed ??? Wouldn't you want to know exactly what's being reported and have it exactly the same everywhere?

I think that's what you really meant. However Germany is being myoptic in their view. They haven't yet realized that it is not in their long range interest if their neighbors economies struggle. They have to sell their products, and Portugal, Spain, and Italy are all close by. I don't think...

I disagree with, obviously.

It is almost certain the death rate per capita in the U.S. is higher than being reported because of limited testing. In the U.S., only deaths in "confirmed" cases are being reported and that means only where there was a positive test, and of course that is only where a test was available. The...

Without a Eurobond the EU monetary union is incomplete. The EU bond is sorely needed. The Germans have been the stumbling block. In reality the ECB could print Euros and give them to Italy. That is what they should actually do in this crisis. Few will understand that, or the consequences of...
