This is hilarious:

"And yes I will repeat "people" that are pathologically selfish are PURE EVIL and will burn in hell."

Who's the quintessential pathologically selfish personality in American politics? Donald Trump. He may have good instincts on the economy, except for his tariff fetish. But he doesn't give a fuck about anyone except himself, and he's shown that time and time again.

Uh. Real Weekly Wages. That would be adjusted for inflation, right?

Real Weekly Wages were already climbing in an upward trajectory under Obama-Biden YEARS before Trump's one and only economic "stimulus" legislation went into effect in 2018. And the only reason there was a momentary spike in that "adjusted for inflation" part of it in early 2020 was because prices of everything else were crashing due to Trump's Pandemic. Yeah, anyone who still had a job that paid wages could buy gas really, really cheap and not go anywhere thanks to Trump's necessary closures at the time. See link and screenshot below:

Uh. The unemployment rate had been declining steadily and dramatically under Obama-Biden YEARS before Trump's one and only economic "stimulus" legislation went into effect in 2018. Oh, and please note the gigantic spike in the unemployment rate right about the same time those "adjusted for inflation" wages some lucky few were still receiving momentarily spiked up after Trump's other decisions in 2018 and 2019 and his lying about it all through 2020 created and exacerbated Trump's Pandemic. See link and screenshot below:

You have a truly bizarre concept of "cause and effect" that seems to find a "cause" for things under Trump / Repubs that came into "effect" YEARS earlier after Dems shouldered all the heavy lifting and assumed all the political risk to make it happen.

As is so very common among Repubs anyway. And the saddest part is that you Repubs continually attribute those Dem acheivements you're always taking credit for to the very Repub tax policies, lax enforcement of regulations and horrible economic stewardship that has plunged America into every Great Depression, Great Recession, Massive Jobs Destruction and NONE of the Great Recoveries, Historic Expansions and Historic Job Gains of the past 100 years or so.

It is truly astonishing but understandable why typically pro Repub Mainstream Media let you get away with it.

"If you say that economic liberalism, including free trade, is a farce and should be quashed, I'm not going to say you are a full blown psychopath or Lucifer. Or that you're evil and will burn in hell for it. Or that you want to bring back slavery. That's even though most Americans and others would be worse off, while the crony capitalists who benefit from trade barriers, tariffs, and corporate subsidies would make out like bandits. I'm not going to say that because I am not a troll. Instead I would say you are misguided.

Word on the street is that a large percentage of people who don't like immigrants and other men of color are homosexual, like this dood.

P.S. I've never fucked a dead woman or killed a live one, nor do I know anyone who has. ".

Free trade is a farce and a misnomer no less, free for whom, just call it what it is, unfair trade.

Parasites like this MAGA hating piece of shit.

Guess what, he hates MAGA loves the CCP and open borders, HUNGER GAMES for ALL.

He didn't make that money he stole it, and should be drawn and quartered.

He may as well be printing it in his basement.

"That's even though most Americans and others would be worse off" so tell me who the fuck are these others you're so "worried" about? The slaves of the CCP?

Do you know their solution? Install nets to catch the jumpers, and send them right back to their slot on the line!!

You sound as anti American as they get.

And yes I will repeat "people" that are pathologically selfish are PURE EVIL and will burn in hell.

People like Chas Koch (Montgomery Burns on steroids) or Nick Gillespie et al."

You're all over the place aren't you.

Ken Griffin's Citadel Securities is a parasite. It's a market making firm, which wouldn't exist if all shares were transparently traded on stock exchanges, like they are in Tooms' adopted country and many other places. Citadel takes money out of the pockets of pension funds, mutual funds and individuals and puts it into the pockets of Griffin and his associates. They're leaches, sucking up retirees money.

Trump, Biden, other presidents and Congress should have shut down this racket long ago but they haven't. You seem to be a big fan of crony capitalism that goes with tariffs and trade barriers, so its surprising youre complaining about this.

Your link to Foxconn suicides shows one or two occurring in some years since 2012. Foxconn has around 600,000 employees in China and the suicide rate there is about 10 per 100,000. So you'd expect about 60 suicides among Foxconn employees annually. Wikipedia didn't come up with near that many in any year. So what's your point?

Mine would be that the work done, mostly by women, in factories where consumer electronics and garments and the like are manufactured, is mind numbingly dull and repetitive. Americans don't want to do it. Yeah, if you want to create a suicide epidemic in America, you might just be able to do it with 100% made in the USA laws.

A little less than half of what we import are parts and the like that we incorporate into items made here. The value added for many products in the USA is multiples of what we pay for parts and components from other countries. Everyone's better off if we leave the rinky dink, repetitive manufacturing to other countries and do higher value added products and services in the USA.

The effect of tariffs and trade barriers on most Americans is negative. The overall effect is to lower wages, lower employment, and raise prices on consumers. Poorer Americans are hurt worst.

This explains it. Fat chance you'll read it, but I'll post it anyway.

Cohn who was chief economic advisor to former U.S. President Donald Trump from 2017 to 2018 does not see the Fed cutting interest rates until the second half of 2024.
Drawing on 100-year average data, Cohn said the U.S. economy is back to a normal, but we all forgot what normal is.
.....
"We haven't seen normal for over two decades. We went through a decade plus of zero interest rates, we went through a decade of quantitative easing, zero interest rates and the Fed trying to see if they could create inflation," he said.

"We've gone from the Fed not being able to create inflation we now know the answer, the Fed cant create inflation, but the market can to us trying to unwind a shorter term inflationary shock. Were back into a normal world."

He noted that the 100-year average for 10-year U.S. Treasury yields is around 4.5%, and that the 10-year yield has moderated from the 16-year high of 5% logged in October to around 4.3% as of Wednesday morning. Meanwhile, inflation is running back towards the mean of between 2% and 2.5%.

"So every piece of economic data, if you look, is sort of heading back towards its very long term average. If you look at these over 100-year generational cycles, we seem to be running into that phase right now," Cohn added.

Thanks, Joe, Nancy, Chuck and the Dems for shouldering all the heavy lifting and assuming all the political risk to produce this historic recovery from another historic Great Repub Economic Disaster.

Again. As usual.

Yes, indeed, that quiet right! We salute you...Joe and the Dems, for a job well done!

Now Dems, needs to continue to shut this from the mountain tops and use the strength of the economy and the wave of anti-abortion ban wins, as their "double barrel shot gun", in their 2024 campaigning.

Oh, that's the memo I didn't get.

But that still leaves one Kock Bro and the whole Kock Nutwork behind to throw billions at Repub campaigns with the scheme being the Kocks will be flush with cash when their "winning" Repub so-called potus inevitably and reliably fulfills his / her Repub Party duty to Crash the USA Economy and Wipe Out Millions of Jobs by any means at hand, bringing the cost of everything down to less than bargain basement levels for them to swoop in for the big buy.

**EihTooms** · 11-30-23 03:49

The Repub concepts of "Russsiagate", "Collusion" and "Hoax" sure are flexible and come in handy for Trump and his Repub and Pro Repub Bothsider / Neithersider Cult Followers whenever they need them, aren't they?

Oh, the Complexities, Complexities, Complexities persist. So let's make it as simple as 1, 2, 3:

1. Trump publicly sides with Putin on election interference.
July 16, 2018.

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/...-summit-722418

President Donald Trump on Monday publicly sided with Russian President Vladimir Putin over his own intelligence agencies, refusing to condemn the Kremlin for interference in the 2016 election and saying that I dont see any reason why Russia would have hacked Democratic computer servers.

Trumps remarkable statements, during a joint news conference in Helsinki, Finland, after holding a two-hour one-on-one meeting with Putin, came after special counsel Robert Mueller indicted 12 Russians on Friday over allegations of involvement in the state-ordered election-interference operation.

2. (REPUB-Controlled) Senate panel finds Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. election.
Aug. 18, 2020.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politic...16-us-election

WASHINGTON (AP) The Trump campaigns interactions with Russian intelligence services during the 2016 presidential election posed a grave counterintelligence threat, a Senate panel concluded Tuesday as it detailed how associates of Donald Trump had regular contact with Russians and expected to benefit from the Kremlins help.

The nearly 1,000-page report, the fifth and final one from the Republican-led Senate intelligence committee on the Russia investigation, details how Russia launched an aggressive effort to interfere in the election on Trumps behalf. It says the Trump campaign chairman had regular contact with a Russian intelligence officer and says other Trump associates were eager to exploit the Kremlins aid, particularly by maximizing the impact of the disclosure of Democratic emails hacked by Russian intelligence officers.

3. Trump lawyers cite Russian interference he decried as a "hoax" as defense in D.C. criminal case.
Trump repeatedly rejected claims Russian interference in 2016. Now his attorneys are citing it in court filing.
Nov. 29, 2023.

https://www.salon.com/2023/11/29/law...criminal-case/

....
In a court filing this week, Trump's attorneys argued that the former president is not at fault because others believed the election may have been undermined. They asserted instead that Russian election interference in 2016, the same subversion that Trump often deems "the Russia hoax," was at least in some part to blame for the distrust of the 2020 election results.

Ah. That's better.

"The Republican House has done a great job in 2023. Remember the negotiations to raise the national debt ceiling back in May. The House Republicans managed to claw back $1. 5 trillion over 10 years from the $5 trillion+ in spending legislated by Biden and Democrats in 2021 and 2022. Chip Roy's problem is that he believes they should have clawed back more. Fair enough, but $1. 5 trillion is quite an accomplishment considering Democrats control the Senate and the Presidency.

I was watching CNBC last week, and Jared Bernstein, the chairman of President Biden's Council of Economic Advisors was expounding on the accomplishments of the President. Chief among them was saving $1 trillion through passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023! This is the money that the Republicans clawed back! In other words, Biden's economic advisor is taking credit for something that got passed only because Republicans threatened not to increase the debt limit. Democrats were shouting Armageddon and now they're taking credit for the legislation! Unbelievable!

Anyway, Bill Clinton and Barrack Obama might have been crappy ass presidents, if Republicans hadn't controlled the House during their second terms, and played a similar role to House Republicans this year. Instead, Clinton will go down in history as a very good president, having balanced the budget, passed welfare reform, promoted free trade, and cut the capital gains tax, all thanks to Republicans. Maybe House Republicans will also help President Biden preserve his legacy, after two years of crappy ass results with one party rule.

The main stream media can't say Blacks or Whites or Jews or Muslims are psychopaths. And heaven forbid that they'd call Democrats psychopaths. But it's fine to call Republicans psychopaths.

The articles quote a study that came out of that great bastion of higher learning, the University of Southern Mississippi. They conclude that "Republicans surveyed had a small but statistically significant higher level of psychopathic traits than Democrats. ".

Well, the problem is that they only surveyed 164 Democrats, 85 Republicans and 55 independents. Notice how closely that correlates with the make up of the American electorate. And actually they didn't conduct the survey but rather outsourced it to Amazon's Mechanical Turk crowdsourcing consultancy. Gallup they ain't.

Now, "about 1. 2% of USA Adult men and 0. 3% to 0. 7% of USA Adult women are considered to have clinically significant levels of psychopathic traits. " See.

https://www.apa.org/monitor/2022/03/...0%2 C%202020).

So among this sample of 304 people, being 157 females and 147 males, you'd expect to have 2 or 3 people who have clinically significant levels of psychopathic traits. How statistically significant is that? And somehow this study shows that Republicans have a "small but statistically significant higher level of psychopathic traits" than Democrats. I'm calling bull shit on this study, or rather the press' description of it. ".

Aka neofeudalism neoslavery = GLOBAL HUNGER GAMES for all.
