I agree with almost everything you say about the education system. However, it is, in layman's terms, an A to B fallacy. It isn't that the education system is that screwed up. We have plenty of intelligent, well-educated people. The problem is that the stupid people far outnumber the smart...

Why is Biden's leadership necessary? Last I checked he is not president. Whether or not Trump will have a second term remains to be seen. A fish rots from the head down. If people are not showing leadership, it is the fault of the leader.

Stops assume you have low confidence in where the market is going, volatile swings or not. Quip back all day long; I don't really care.

You missed many key points. Those lockdowns are non enforceable as yet. People are ignoring them. Traffic looks like a normal summer day. Idiots are still swarming the beaches, which is why California has to close many beaches to prevent the idiots from swarming by the 10s of 1000s. Human...

South Korea could enact such The global number of cases on March 6, 2020 is the now the of cases by which grow every 24 hours. By the SIR model, the minimum number of cases we can have assuming a 17% infection probability, is 1,143,356. I posited 17% because we were at 15% on March 6. The...

So much for socialized medicine. Despite all the shortcomings of the Administration to combat this virus, I am surprised that our death rate is not higher. People in Italy were actually following directions unlike us, and yet their death rate is through the roof. In spite of the fact our numbers...

Allianz is shuttering two of their hedge funds. More firms who were caught on the wrong side of derivatives trades. Who knew? Oh, wait, anybody worth their salt. So much for hedging. Proof that just because you have billions, doesn't mean you know what to do with them.

We may have to agree to disagree. We just got through saying how you can't get something for free. It is also true that you get what you pay for. If you think non-American healthcare is great then fine, use it. The only other country/countries I would consider using for some things would be...

They Furloughed 41,000 workers. Tilman Fertitta's Landry's inc. owns the restaurant chain. This interesting because he was recently interviewed where he explained that he always leverages his current restaurants in order buy others. If he has used other businesses as collateral than he may loose...

It has nothing to do with sending people. It has to do with the actual time it takes; and aside from that, it deals with injuries that resulting permanent damage before that now are completely remediable. Your presupposes the fact that all procedures are in-patient procedures. You need not...

We are talking about stock prices. Assets + liabilities = stockholder's equity. They are taking on massive amounts of debt. Free money always equals debt. Free money is not free. Companies are going junk because: Let's us this example. Say you are going to issue an unlimited supply of cash...

And diabetics. In the UK, where they have nationalized medicine, they spent only £2 million treating diabetic patients ~a decade ago. A decade later, they now spend £55 million. In 1970s US, we spent 4% of our GDP on healthcare, now we spend 17%. Publicly traded healthcare companies excluding...

Man, who wrote your programming. You are the funniest troll bot I have seen. I wish I could code something like you. :sneaky:

It would be pretty difficult to fake an account. You would have to fabricate trades times, exchanges, quantity, entry prices would have to match. How would have access to somebody else account on a regular basis? It would pretty easy to confirm if you were posting trades continuously with...

I know I may admitted to this before, but are you all just playing along with Amun, Greenie and Dozu. Has this thread, this topic even, become a gag thread where you post bullish inanity? Is it really that funny? Why would anybody waste their time posting garbage that sounds like it came from a...

Sorry, I'm late to the party. It took me a while to realize dozu is a wind-up artist who isn't really long, and that nobody is that stupid to be that bullish. I have trouble spotting sarcasm sometimes.

We have only seen unemployment up to March 21, 2020. Things only started shutting down in most places last week. Most Americans only have savings to last 1 to 2 weeks. 1-2 weeks from the shutdown puts us at the beginning of April, i.e., rent, building leases, etc. due. Firms are still buying the...

I wonder if @greeneveryday bought too many calls. Maybe he is a troll bot because he never learns.

All this is true, but people are incredibly gullible. The administration will try to save the economy people be damned. People just heard 3.28 million people are unemployed as of March 21, and the market rallied. LOL They are being told they can return to work if they wear PPE. They honestly...

So I did then. Oh well. I would not have been surprised if he were serious.
