The 50 year mortgage -- indentured servitude.

An 18 year would have the mortage paid off by 68.

The amount of interest paid in first 25 years would be more than an entire 25 year mortgage.

It transfers wealth from labour productivity directly to banks.

I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.

Why is he slurring?
Trump touts Walmart lowering the cost of Thanksgiving meals (because they are lower quality and contain less food) and then lies shamelessly about prices that "everything is down"

The first reporter who gets a "I have not seen it, I am not aware of it." answer from Mike Johnson who pulls out a screen or rolls a clip to show "it" to him and force a response from him should get a pulitzer prize and a raise.

Why did CZ and Ross Ulbrecht get pardoned and SBF didn't?

Ulbrecht and CZ were caught and convicted of crimes that tied their businesses to all kinds of legit evil.

SBF runaway hedge fund with depositors money.

But SBF supported the Democrats.

When I see a fellow Mazda5 owner I give them a wave with all fingers open. A kind of 'fellow sensible person with good priorities' wave.

America should just let him design "Trumpcare" as a single company that provides all the Healthcare to everyone, paid for by the treasury.
Trump: "Obamacare has turned out to be a disaster as I've been saying for years. It can be fixed or redone. People don't get good healthcare and their premiums go up every single year. So we should change it. Obamacare is bad healthcare at a very high price."
