Male Bovine Excrement spewing from the keyboards of Republican Morons.

If Americans have the right incentive system, we can do almost anything better than anyone.

Harley Davison

Had an absolute lock on the premium motorcycle market. Now the company is floundering in the market that is should be doing better in than anyplace else in the world: The Dis-United States of America. Not only that but they are getting the clocks cleaned worldwide. Here is why:

https://youtu.be/fzKcAO_o-_Q?si=pfYZBluayH6wObeP

I am currently shopping for a motorcycle. I am a new rider. I actually would prefer to represent, but Harley Davison is selling an inferior product at a premium price. I am looking at Zontes and CFMoto. But offering ton of tech, more power AND a lower price than even the current Japanese Brands. My vote of my USD has much more power than my vote at the ballot box. I am exercising that power as I pursue my happiness.

Now Elvis 2008 and MarquisdeSade1 would have me pay more just to buy American. In the United States of America that I grew up with that mentality is in opposition to the capitalist system I learned about and then finally mastered late in life. I should pay more so that the capitalists can impoverish me even more than they currently are doing.

Remember I am just a poor (insert color of your choice here) man trying to make it in a (insert color of your choice here) world. I need to save every dollar I can!

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness

Yeah, I have been listening to this since I heard people hawking gold.

Gold prices fall as Trump hints at major US-UK trade deal- Gold prices dropped on Thursday as market nerves eased following U.S. President Donald Trumps announcement of a possible trade deal with Britain. The news pulled investors away from the safe-haven metal, which had earlier seen some gains.

Gold continues to be on a tear. This is actually a bad time to be buying gold as a major correction is on the horizon.

But do not worry. SC swears it is going up so you should buy it. Maybe he can lecture everyone on these things after the racist comments and how big his dick is. And BTW, did he mention the killing he is making in gold?

What I do is speak about all aspects of an investment. Not just my view. Buy BONDs E2008 says. But he fails to point out that if the entity that issued those BONDS fail you lose EVERYTHING!

Gold (Au), if you hold it physically has held it's value adjusted for inflation over 5000 years. If there is a major reset (and there will be if the Dis-United States of America does not get it's act together) if all of your wealth is wiped out because the US Dollar goes to zero or hyper-inflates, I feel comfortable knowing I have something that I can use in the restart of the world economy.

Hotdog666 (please note the proper use of your handle. I will address you with disrespect as you do later in my post).

I am not sure what your problem is. Reading comprehension maybe. I will lay out the law and the fact for you again:

Another important limitation on lawful permanent residents is that they are subject to the grounds of deportability. If you commit certain crimes or security violations, or even fail to advise USCIS of your changes of address, you can be placed in removal proceedings and deported from the United States

Your boy was a guest. Why? Because guests can get deported. A US Citizen cannot get deported.

Got sideways of the law. So he is in removal proceedings. It the USGOV did not have a valid complaint then the Judge would have immediately thrown it out.

You have told two lies there,. Firstly, your repeated lie that a permanent resident is a "guest". It isn't. You've just fabricated that and repeating a lie doesn't make it a truth.

The second lie, that you've repeated is that Mahmud Khalil did something illegal. He didn't. He protested about Israeli atrocities against the Palestinians and that was his "crime". Your country is ruled by Zionists and America is the dog that the zionists wag. However it does not make it a crime.

You can call the law I have presented to a a lie as much as you want Food on a Bun. Does not change the law or the facts in the case

You're despicable and hypocritical decrying against "republican" "racists" who (supposedly) treat your people unjustly while applying the same modus operandi and mindset towards this victim. Have some shame.

I will never let a "guest" such as yourself tell me anything about my country of origin while you live in some shithole country in the world.

Get a life, learn the law, acknowledge the facts. You boy was a guest. He got sideways of the law. He is removal proceedings. He is receiving DUE PROCESS. In a system very different from China and Russia whom you are comparing the Dis-United States of America to.

How are you as a International Trick going tell me I am disgusting and need to have shame? When is your next trip to Jakarta. I look forward to reading your next trip report.

[MarquisdeSade1]

Yeah, I have been listening to this since I heard people hawking gold. I think you are confusing money printing with credit. When the USA government gives people a dollar, it is as a loan via treasury bills and notes. If the USA prints up too many dollars, people demand a higher interest rate, and the government has to pay. It is not a free lunch as the gold bugs promote.

And the creation of money is not just at the hands of the government. Anyone who gives someone else credit is creating money. The worse the risk, the higher the rate is. In short, money creation is limited by the faith of the lender. If the lender does not have faith he will be paid back, money creation dries up.

When I went to a shareholder meeting of a Venezuelan telephone company, I heard Venezuelan after Venezuelan talk about fucking over Verizon which owned 25% of the company by breaking their own laws. Verizon (which was GTE) literally laid down all the phone lines in that country. When I heard that, I knew that Venezuela, which at the time had the largest proven oil reserves in the world, was done for a generation. Until Venezuelans respect lenders, they will be poor.

When I went to American banks to get a mortgage to buy land in Latin America, they would not lend me the money. They would do a personal loan but not a mortgage. Yet real estate prices in Latin countries went through the roof. I was in Paraguay and a decent house was $300,000. I was like who in Paraguay has that kind of cash? That is a price to income ratio of 50! What was happening is European banks particularly French ones were doing the lending and unlike American banks, they have not taken their haircuts. A lot of the reason the USA gets flak is our honesty with the numbers (well, before Biden anyway).

Right now, Greece, remember them, has lower interest rates than the USA. Now do you think that is because they are a better credit risk or they are hiding their debt? A free market is based on honesty, and the Greeks have never been honest.

When I went to Latin countries and asked why they were so poor, the reason I was given was corruption. That implies it is government and not the fault of the people though. What I saw by going to Venezuela is Hugo Chavez and his stealing was a symptom and not the cause of the issue. The problem was and is the Venezuelan citizens absolutely disdain for the rights of lenders and so no one wants to extend them credit. The corruption part is the government not sticking up for lenders.

So when you talk about the "free market" and China, what are you talking about? What is the credit system in China? Is it open? Is there transparency? Would you loan money to China and if so, how would you assess the risk and the interest rate you should be paid? And with what would you want to be paid back your interest?

One of Warren Buffett's sayings is "Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked". What that means is if the French banks keep on their books that the homes in their Paraguayan real estate portfolio are valued at $300,000 apiece, everything is fine. Only when they are forced to liquidate the asset or the government demands a realistic valuation is when the tide goes out.

And banks are not like other businesses. If they lever up 10:1, then a 10% reduction in asset prices renders them insolvent. So for all your disdain for the American system and how flawed it is, be honest. You have no clue how the Chinese credit system operates. And you know how I know? Because if you did, there is no way in hell you would be pushing China over the USA.

Be weary of engaging anyone that calls themselves hotdog on an anon hooker online forum, that publicly fluffs and rims the CCP.

And claims to hang out with Nobel Laureates when they aren't fluffing and rimming Xi lolololololol.

You're going down the Jjbee64 path again lolololol.

[Elvis 2008]

After it, America realised that the world would lap up its printed dollars anyway so it thought, this is a sweet deal, I print off a dollar, then I go to the rest of the world, and buy its goods and give them the dollar. They then have to do something with that dollar and there's not enough stuff that I make that they want so they take that dollar and give the dollar back to me and I give them an "IOU".

Yeah, I have been listening to this since I heard people hawking gold. I think you are confusing money printing with credit. When the USA government gives people a dollar, it is as a loan via treasury bills and notes.

[HotDog666]

LOL. I think you are talking about illegals and "due process". The Democratic douches want to give illegals the same rights as citizens. That does not exist. This is from a lawyer who has been talking on MSNBC. https://dannycevallos.substack.com/p...ss-is-actually.

Most nations do not grant citizenship to women who have their children in their country. If you have your baby in Japan, unlike in the USA, the baby is not a Japanese citizen. The law that allowed pregnant Mexican women to cross the border and have their kids here and become American citizens is the 14th Amendment. The reason for the 14th Amendment was Southern states after the Civil war tried to deny citizenship to slaves. As they should have, lower courts have upheld the law giving citizenship to these birthed citizens as it is above their pay grade. Eventually, the Supreme Court will tackle this. To me, it is a no brainer to plug this hole. American citizenship has been valued in the millions and it should not just be given away as a right to a child whose parent is breaking the law.

The funny thing is I think Republicans are more pro-immigrant than Democrats. We just want legal and productive citizens and not the criminals that cross the border and whose only talents are selling drugs and voting Democrat.

As for China, a lot of countries have done well moving from the farm to the factory. China is in debt up to their eyeballs. Someone is paying for those empty cities, and the federal government of China has pushed the debt to the state and local level. Unlike Japan, there is no free flow of currency into the dollar and Euro, and the Chinese people have had little alternative other than to pile into real estate, and the Chinese lie their asses off with economic data, https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/be...nomic-collapse.

American savings are immense. They are just in the bond and stock market not banks, so I do not make that big of a deal with Americans and their lack of "savings".

While you acknowledge the real estate bubble, I do not think you get how bad it is. The rule of thumb used to be when buying a house you take your income and double it, so the price to income ratio should be 2. That is your house would cost double your income if you put every dollar you earned into your hose.

One reason and perhaps THE reason the great Biden economy is such a lie is that prices of stocks and real estate rose but not income with housing and not earnings with the stock market. When prices go up but not income or earnings, that is just money printing at work.

Now look at price to income ratios around the world. New York is fucking crazy at 14, but Shangai is at 34, and that is down from what it was. But you have Phoenix at 4 and Orlando and Dallas at 3, and you can see why everyone is moving there from New York and California. China is nowhere near done dealing with their real estate bubble.

Usually their home is the biggest asset most people own. You mention monetary policies and deflation but the root cause of deflation is falling demand, and that is a natural consequence of aging. Once people quit being parents, demand falls down. China is in the first inning of its deflationary bubble.

Japan and Western complacency? Come on, man. Japan kicked China's butt in WW2 and even today, Japan is way more organized, productive, and safe than China. Japan's issue is they are the oldest nation in the world. The first thing that happens when you go from the country to the city is kids go from being free labor to an expense. The USA has not followed that path. We have adjusted to lower births by allowing immigration. Like I said, the difference between Republicans and Democrats is not over immigration. It is over illegal immigration. For God's sake, Trump is on his second foreign wife.

And yeah, Japan made shit cars in the 1970's and upped their game in the 1980's. I remember being blown away by the Datsun 280 ZX in the 80's just like Chinese cars are blowing me away today. This is a wakeup call not just for American car companies but the world's car companies.

As for bringing home production, that was already happening after Covid. Trump is just accelerating that trend. I do not get this crap with stuff doubling in price. Iphones could be made in the USA for $30 more not double and with most goods, the cost of labor is tiny.

Some guy with TDS was saying the USA could not make shoes. I was laughing. Since when can the USA not make fucking shoes? Henry Ford invented the assembly line. A guy who looked into making shoes said an automated USA factory could produce shoes for 7% more than not China but even lower cost Vietnam. Once the right incentives are in place, I am sure the USA can produce not just equal but better quality shoes than Vietnam for less.

Do you think anyone in 2004 was saying the USA would be self sufficient in crude oil fifteen years later? How did that happen? Did Americans just trip over oil? We developed a new way to drill for crude which went from being expensive to cost effective. China has huge shale reserves, and they have not been able to tap into them in any meaningful way, and all you talk about is Western complacency.

You think the USA cannot build phone and shoe factories but China can get off oil and coal at break net speed? Please! Here are the numbers.

https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=64544 China's refiners imported 11.1 million be / the of crude oil and processed 14.2 million be / the. Both crude oil imports and refinery runs decreased in China from record levels in 2023, when the country imported 11.3 million be / the of crude oil and processed 14.8 million be / the.

In 2023, China's coal consumption reached 91.94 exajoules, marking a new high. In 2022, China's coal consumption grew by 4. 6 percent to a new all-time high of 4. 5 billion metric tons, nearly nine times higher than the United States.

Coal consumption went down in 2024 like oil did but there is nothing break net about that reduction, and China is the biggest coal importer in the world. If China invades Taiwan, the American navy cuts off China's crude and coal and their economy tanks in days.

I think I am realistic on China. It has huge issues that the USA does not have. Most of American's foreign policy was based on energy security and oil importation. We no longer have that issue and China does, and for some reason, you just want to blow that off. What happened with American oil production will happen in manufacturing. There were more cynics on oil production, I called them the peak oil nuts, then there are cynics on manufacturing. If Americans have the right incentive system, we can do almost anything better than anyone.

I actually agree there really is a valid issue with immigration in America and the Dem's handling of this and this has a lot to do with Trump getting into power. America, like the west, is in a dilemma on immigration, and I don't know what to tell you, maybe AI and automation will eventually step up resolving the need but clearly not desire for immigrants.

I think you really are looking at America with rose tinted glasses and you haven't woken up and smelt the coffee on China. Taking the latter first, have you heard that song "Anything you can do, I can do cheaper (and better) than you"? That's China for you. I've spoken about EV's and AI as examples. We can go further. Stephen spoke about phones- I also had a Huawei phone- best phone I ever had, hands down better than Crapple and waay cheaper. Have you heard of the Chengdu Aerospace corporation? Their stock went up 20% last week. Why? Because of the India / Pakistan conflagaration. Their J10 c has proven its worth against the supposedly vastly superior French Raphael, 3-5 of which were shot down depending on whom you speak to. "If it's Boeing I'm not going" is what many people now assert after their planes started falling out of the sky. We can go on. You need to accept the reality. Yes, America retains superiority over semiconductors and arguably aeronautics but for how long?

We can play tit for tat on who has the bigger issues, China or America. They may be indebted to their heads on real estate but it is true that they have incredible amounts of personal savings too, which offsets the debt. Meanwhile 10's of millions of Americans are living pay check to paycheck. You are in awe of this fuckwit Trump and Musk even though they've done sweet FA on it. What have they done? Saved $160 billion by taking the money from poor and hungry and from critical govt programs and from air traffic controllers? Wow. My dream is to have my hated ones travel into Newark on a Boeing. This from the Vice Joker who claimed he was going to save $1 Trillion (or was it $2 trillion) in the few months he was there.

Neither they nor you understand America's problem so how are you going to find the solutions? Let me edify you, if you care to open your mind. America's major problem isn't bloated civil service or "social security" or even welfare. It's the fact that you guys have been making choices which you don't have the money for and it's not recent either. Have you heard of Bretton Woods? This was a pact post WW2 by the world's major economies to have the dollar as a reserve currency, their currencies pegged to the dollar and it was pegged to gold. An American dollar had real discernable value, until around 1971 when it was taken off gold. Why? Because the world cottoned off to the fact that America was printing dollars to pay off its costs for Vietnam. After it, America realised that the world would lap up its printed dollars anyway so it thought, this is a sweet deal, I print off a dollar, then I go to the rest of the world, and buy its goods and give them the dollar. They then have to do something with that dollar and there's not enough stuff that I make that they want so they take that dollar and give the dollar back to me and I give them an "IOU". And with that dollar back to me, I can buy a helicopter to shoot down a Vietnamese. Sweet deal, no? And That's what got you guys hooked on debt. It harks back through to getting off the gold standard. There's actually nothing wrong with this, per se. But you've used the debt proceeds for stupid purposes. I've previously given you figures regarding the cost of Iraq debacle of $7 trillion. You could have spent the money on so many other things of value but going around the world instigating unholy wars was not smart. They say Russia lost to the west because it was literally bankrupted and couldn't finance its military. Well, America is going down the same route.

Look, my man. I am not anti American. I think there's a great deal of good things about America as I've articulated before. But you do need to wake and smell the coffee and this wet dream that China is going to collapse or somehow you're going to on shore all the production and become great again is simply unrealistic. Try and look at things objectively. The world's supply chains are incredibly complex and if you are a free market believer you have to also believe that the free market operates rationally. Your TV leave alone your car has many many components from all over the world in a way which is most efficient. America nor any one nation has the capacity to produce all these. Have you heard of Ricardian economics? This is Ricardian economics in operation, and to try to refute this requires something compelling. This batshit President of yours against Ricardo? Come on, bro. The tariffs are simply a tax on Americans and all they will do is accelarate your demise and accelarate China's ascendancy.

Please forego these batshit conspiracy theory websites you sent and read a book. Here's a few I recommend.

- Power and Politics (Daron Acemoglu- I met him, he is super smart and a noble prize winner).

- Crisis Economics (Nouriel Roubini).

- How Democracies Die (Steven Levitsky).

[HotDog666]

A guest in my county of the Dis-United States of America like the dumb mother fuck you keep mentioning should have known the law and followed it. If he did not know the law he should have been advised by his immigration attorney that he used to get his permanent residence status in the first place. Oh, he didn't have an attorney, so sorry for him. That is just plan stupid.

I have an attorney in every country where I am engaged in activities of a legal nature. In other words, where I am not JUST a tourist. That number totals 4 different countries at this point in my life.

The only cerebral challenge I present to anyone is to those that do not have their facts straight. Remind you of anyone you know?

ROTFLMAO!

You have told two lies there, Stephen. Firstly, your repeated lie that a permanent resident is a "guest". It isn't. You've just fabricated that and repeating a lie doesn't make it a truth.

While it is not allowed to have statues of Thomas Jefferson or Teddy Roosevelt, among others, in New York City, a 12 ft bronze statue of a random fat black woman just standing there is certainly permitted. The Roosevelt and Jefferson statues were removed last year. After all, what did they ever do in contrast with this overweight fictional woman whose nipples are showing through her baggy t-shirt?

This is a fictional black woman. A fat, sloppy, slouchily dressed, black woman. Couldn't even find an ACTUAL black woman to represent.

No Harriet Tubman.

No Daisy Bates.

No Maya Angelou.

Just a fat fucking black woman.

And it gets worse: Similar statues installed recently in Florence, San Francisco, Rotterdam, & New York. All by the same (grifter-artist, "Thomas J Price," all with high levels of federal, municipal, private funding.

My favorite comment was: How about something that looks less like someone complaining their "order wasn't right"?

And then there is this bullshit: "In a culture that increasingly encourages a faster pace, Grounded in the Stars is an introspective meditation on humanity," the artist's website states, claiming the statue should "instigate meaningful connections and bind into an emotional state that allow for deeper reflection around the Human condition and greater cultural diversity. ".

Can you believe this crap? Obviously, the goal is if anyone criticizes the statue, you can call the person sexist and racist. Thing is every time I fly to Cartagena 75% of all flights are filed with black men. Guys on here have cricized these men caling them part of the Sousa crowd or the Passport Bros but honestly I have not seen any of them behave badly on the flights. I think the guys shooting videos bragging about their exploits is dumb beause they risk ruining their playground by bringing pubicity to it, but the black culture does not have the shame with seeing hookers that the white culture does.

I have tempted to ask a few of those guys, why do you all come to Cartagena so much? Are the black American women really that bad? Of course, I look at this staute of this angry black woman and while I might not like her, the black men have to live with her, and the answer is yes and the proof is seeing those guys are hauling their asses to Colombia in droves. It is like don't you dare call me fat. You are body shaming me you racist, sexist POS.

That is what these Democratic douches do not get. Productive American men do not have to stay in the USA. I wonder how many guys are asking the same question I am. Is the reason I am paying taxes is so this whale can have food stamps?

He is done, they bought him off.

This is why Wall St loves poor Democratic politicians they are cheap whoors ala Scumbags Bubba Barry Bernie Biden et al (and many GOP Desantis Paul Ryan Mitch McConnel et al).

And why they even tried to kill Trump because he can't be bought.

These dirtbags love this shit, the CCP stealing 600 billion of IP from Americans per year, besides everything else.

When I see articles about Federal budgets etc they like to calculate it on a 10 yr timeline so 600 X10 =6 trillion in just stolen IP.

How is that not an Act of War?

But these dirtbags love it because they hate America and Americans (ie Tinydick).

The most unstable numbskull to ever waddle into the Oval Office much less actually be allowed to sit in the desk chair, Donald Trump, has just now demanded his Repub Party disavow 100 years of their entire economic philosophy in order to accomplish godknowswhat for himself.

Yep. The same guy who told us American families can no longer afford more than 2 dolls and 5 pencils because, well, remember all those Billions and Billons and Billions of dollars America will be given by other countries from his Trump Tariffs that will make all of us rich and fund everything we want including Childcare because Childcare is Childcare and groceries, god I'm glad he invented that word, has now turned out to be AMERICANS paying those Billions and Billions and Billions of dollars and looks like doing that will make everyone poor and not rich at all. Shocking.

But it doesn't end there. Remember how Repubs have been telling us for well over 100 years that the benefits of giving tax cuts for the rich will "Trickle-Down" into the rest of the economy, create more jobs than the Dem alternative and make all of us rich too?

Well, Trump wants the Repub Party to flush that whole idea down the shitter too. Which is where it always belonged, of course. But now it turns out Trump has always understood that Repub Party economic philosophy was total BS and now we needs them to raise taxes on the rich, "wipe out jobs and businesses", drive rich people out of the country, destroy the USA Economy and all of the other horrors that Repubs have spent 100 years telling us would happen if we raised taxes on the rich, because now Trump has some personal need to be met by the Repubs doing so.

Or does he.

Not sure.

He kinda wants his Repub Party toy do do both and refuse to do both, all at the same time.

Or something like that.

Trump backs tax hike on rich, but says GOP 'should probably not do it'.

"As for the policy proposal youre talking about, the president has said he himself, personally, would not mind paying a little bit more to help the poor and the middle class and the working class in this country, Leavitt said.

Uh. Did Trump never ever ever get the Repub memo that squeezing out every dime in taxes cuts for the rich is GOOD for the poor, the middle class and the working class in America? For more than 100 damn years the Repub Party has been pitching their Supply-Side / Trickle-Down con that every dime removed from a rich person in taxes does serious damage to the poor, wipes out jobs and does horrible damage to the middle class and working class!

And now a whole new Trump con requires them to flip-flop on their con to accommodate some other con Trump has up his sleeve.

LOL. So much fun.

While it is not allowed to have statues of Thomas Jefferson or Teddy Roosevelt, among others, in New York City, a 12 ft bronze statue of a random fat black woman just standing there is certainly permitted. The Roosevelt and Jefferson statues were removed last year. After all, what did they ever do in contrast with this overweight fictional woman whose nipples are showing through her baggy t-shirt?

This is a fictional black woman. A fat, sloppy, slouchily dressed, black woman. Couldn't even find an ACTUAL black woman to represent.

No Harriet Tubman.

No Daisy Bates.

No Maya Angelou.

Just a fat fucking black woman.

And it gets worse: Similar statues installed recently in Florence, San Francisco, Rotterdam, & New York. All by the same (grifter-artist, "Thomas J Price," all with high levels of federal, municipal, private funding.

My favorite comment was: How about something that looks less like someone complaining their "order wasn't right"?

And then there is this bullshit: "In a culture that increasingly encourages a faster pace, Grounded in the Stars is an introspective meditation on humanity," the artist's website states, claiming the statue should "instigate meaningful connections and bind into an emotional state that allow for deeper reflection around the Human condition and greater cultural diversity. ".

Can you believe this crap? Obviously, the goal is if anyone criticizes the statue, you can call the person sexist and racist. Thing is every time I fly to Cartagena 75% of all flights are filed with black men. Guys on here have cricized these men caling them part of the Sousa crowd or the Passport Bros but honestly I have not seen any of them behave badly on the flights. I think the guys shooting videos bragging about their exploits is dumb beause they risk ruining their playground by bringing pubicity to it, but the black culture does not have the shame with seeing hookers that the white culture does.

I have tempted to ask a few of those guys, why do you all come to Cartagena so much? Are the black American women really that bad? Of course, I look at this staute of this angry black woman and while I might not like her, the black men have to live with her, and the answer is yes and the proof is seeing those guys are hauling their asses to Colombia in droves. It is like don't you dare call me fat. You are body shaming me you racist, sexist POS.

That is what these Democratic douches do not get. Productive American men do not have to stay in the USA. I wonder how many guys are asking the same question I am. Is the reason I am paying taxes is so this whale can have food stamps?

Nitpicking at semantics over a quote, from an article entitled, "What Do Your Taxes Pay For?"...is pathetic! Is that all you got? (...kkkk!) Can you be any more pathetic?



Don't forget, you are of course, the "Paycheck Superhero", in your own mind and world of "Two in three tax dollars goes to someone else."

But I can see how you would be confused, since the billionaire robber baron class, have picked your pickets clean, are not paying their fair share of taxes and have largely left the payment of said taxes, to that of the hobbled and hallowed-out middle-class and "Paycheck Superheroes" like yourself. But fear not, once the Dems are back in power, I'm sure they'll maybe raise the tax rates on the billionaire robber baron class, to put things right.

In the meantime, take some advice and when one of YOUR heroes, and one of the biggest, baddest and world's richest investor man, says he doesn't mind paying his taxes, unlike fakeass "Paycheck Superheroes" or online/chatroom wannabes, such as yourself,...perhaps YOU SHOULD LISTEN!

I'll let the G.O.A.T. investor, Warren Buffet, explain it to y'all, MAGA chatroom wannabes:

• Warren Buffett Paid $5 Billion In Taxes And Says If 800 Other Companies Paid Their Share, No One Else Would Have To 'Pay A Dime' https://finance.yahoo.com/news/warre...150020350.html

Fantastic quote by the GOAT! Now that tells you everything you need to know, about how the billionaire robber baron class, have conned, hoodwinked and suckered you MAGA imbeciles into thinking, "Two in three tax dollars goes to someone else".

Again, the problem is the billionaire robber baron class, have you gullible MAGA imbeciles, so duped, bamboozled and confused, your lashing out at the wrong people. Your fellow hardworking Americans aren't YOUR so called "parasites", but rather the billionaire robber baron class, who continue at will, to pick your ignorant MAGA pockets clean.

I respect Buffett's investing wisdom, but I think he is a nut job politically. As for being hood winked, you are being hood winked if you think Buffett is a political genius.

Buffett owns a huge chunk of Moody's and Bank of America, and you could not find two companies more stuck in the great recession mud than those two. Of course, you want to blame Bush and not these and other banks owned and run by Democrats. There was the worst of the bunch Citicorp run by Clinton goon Robert Rubin. And Goldman Sachs had a Democratic douche CEO in charge who claimed he was doing "God's work" in the finance markets while taxpayers bailed his sorry ass out.

And so yes, mighty Buffett got a bailout at taxpayer expense and when his lifelong partner Charlie Munger was asked by a student why taxpayers should be footing the bill for banking stupidity, he told the student that people needed to learn to "shut up and cope".

When the two major credit agencies called subprime mortgages AAA rated, who do you think Obama investigated, Moody's, the one 20% owned by Buffett or the one where Buffett had no ownership stake? Take a lucky guess.

Buffett also was the one who really stopped the Keystone pipeline that would have brought oil more cheaply and safely to the USA from Canada. If the pipeline would have been built, his train companies would have been hit hard in the bottom line.

As for not minding paying taxes, that is the biggest load of bullshit I have ever heard. I know someone in partnership with Buffett and he said Buffett was a cheap ass mother fucker.

In addition, the worst kept secret in the business world is that he was cheating on his wife who had cancer. Everyone knew who his mistress was.

As for the bullshit on raising taxes, he is just towing the Democratic company line. Someone who does math as well as he does knows you cannot tax your way out of the debt / deficit problem. The numbers do not add up.

All this time Spidy we have had our spats I thought of you as naive. I did not think you were a bad person but after this tax stuff? OMG. You really disgust me.

To solve the deficit issue, all Americans are going to have to come together and sacrifice. For me, that means more in taxes. For you, that means lower handouts. I am willing to do my part if everyone else is willing to do theirs but not you. You keep making up these bogeymen. MAGA people need to make more. Corporations need to pay more. It is everybody but you, and I do not need to know anything else about you other than that to know what a loser you really are.

(...kkkk!) Let me know when the Jedi Mind Trick wears off, (if it ever does with such weak minds), long enough for me to remind you, that the Subprime Mortgage debacle and financial meltdown and the $29,000,000,000,000 trillion dollar fiasco, took place on Repub George W. Bush's watch. https://www.levyinstitute.org/wp-con...4/02/op_23.pdf

Get a clue, and stop getting suckered by all that nonsense, from online right-wing propaganda. It rots the brain!

Save yourself, your American Fuhrer/Savior is not gonna do it for you, since he's way too busy, picking your pockets! (...kkkk!)

PS: BTW, I just can't wait for you to post, yet another meaningless post, with reams and reams and reams of right-wing bull-crap, to fill the message boards, with utter nonsense to cover your inept knowledge of basic facts...I'm counting the minutes...carry-on!

But you're wrong again of course.

Scumbag Bubba gutted Glass Steagall which caused the Global crisis in 2008 and Scumbag Barry swept all the dirt under the rug.

With the help of scumbags like Rahm Emanuel and Tim Geithner et al.

https://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs...nancial-crisis

You really should take your head out of your ass, its not a very good look.

GW is a huge turd but the blame lies with Scumbag Bubba and Scumbag Barry, you really must be ET.

He / you still insists Scumbag Bubba didn't install the CCP into the WTO.

So stop all the lying already it doesn't fool me.
