nobody is saying US Steel would disappear. Biden is shoutiing that automation might reduce the number of union jobs when modern processes are installed. i have no control over what the Chinese government subsidizes. Or the biden administration. So far this year they're throwing billions at...

biden is only the nominee until someone higher than him in the party objects. that would be obama, or hillary, or pelosi . . . this a waiting game. despite all the polls showing "swing states are in play", the story still is that trump would win if the election was held today. democrats...

how's your mortgage application going?

Photo above - Can we charge this guy with election interference? He just vowed to nullify the vote by US Steel shareholders approving the sale of the company to Nippon Steel. Evidently being a stockholder carries zero rights now. Forget the NHL playoffs (nobody watches those anyway). You can...

Photo above - Surrealist painter Rene Magritte's commentary on psychotherapy, titled "The Therapist". I was blown away when I read the link below. California Governor Gavin Newsom typically gets SO MUCH wrong. This time he's completely right. The state of California could be doing a 180 on...

thank you for interjecting some reality into this thread.

yeah, but a bunch of the people who say "america is on the wrong track" are doing stuff like . . . - blocking US bridges to support hamas terrorists - begging for higher taxes on "the other guys" - want a guaranteed minimum income for doing nothing - still getting a degree at age 30+

Photo above - trustworthy social media influencer compares ginormous smart phones. Don't let the 5 cameras fool you . . . these still actually make phone calls. Full disclosure – I have a new Samsung Galaxy S24+ phone (smaller than the Ultra pictured above). And I love it. I got it last...

only a fool invests in businesses touted by politicians. it's the very definition of meme stocks. did you get your taxes done yet? the only reason i ask, is that people who are deficient in one area of math and finance sometimes struggle in others. there are free sites you can file a 1040 EZ...

great post. thank you. i had a similar thought yesterday. on 9/11 arab terrorists flew jets into the world trade center and the pentagon. 3,000 people were killed. our response was airstrikes to take out their radar systems, followed by a missile barrage, followed by a land invasion. nobody...

if you believe america's future lies in restaurant positions, you're seriously deluded. it involves software, chips, battery tech, solar, wind turbines, pharmaceuticals, aircraft . . .

actually, it's 3.8%. You're off by 20% Civilian unemployment rate (bls.gov)

Photo above - I'm sooooo waiting to see this hit the street. Aren't you? First all, even though I'm going to defend Tesla this time, it doesn't mean I approve of Elon Musk in any way. America needs entrepreneurs. We need affordable cars. We need energy diversity. Tesla pushing the panic...

Wow . . . Now its down 240 points, at 3pm. How embarrassing for you. Did you get your taxes done yet, at least?

I'm reading a book called "the black swan" by nassim nicolas taleb. one of the points he makes is that it is "insane" for a lost motorist to rely on a faulty map. he'd be better off taking stock of his surroundings and making informed judgements. that seems to fit the idea that every problem...
