Because the ultra rich aren't making their money exclusively off the stock market and they're capable of shorting stocks. Where there is movement there is an opportunity to exploit. The only people that will lose here are the poor and middle class.

TSLQ

Pure conjecture formed in the head of a pitch goalie. Inflation is going nowhere but up, tariffs only accelerate it. Doesn't address China or labor requirements at all. Obsessed with debt at the worst possible time. Truly deluded stuff.

I would also like to nominate Stephen Miran and Scott Bessent to your greater list though I realize bloat my quickly take hold of you're too loose with it.

The rich only get more excited by higher prices for luxury goods. It's their kink.

They get hit at the club and go home to take it out on their employees.

Child Care Average Annual Salary: Around $33,094
Elderly Care Average Annual Salary: Around$33,530

Child care profit margins are 15-20% in some instances. Nursing homes are around 9% but pay to actual workers is very low. Again policy changes are needed to fix this.

We have a 4% unemployment rate.

7-8% of inventory is owned as a second home (4%) or institutional investors (3-4%) with the latter growing rapidly. Net profit margins on new construction is around 10%, leaving little room to attract new workers. Nothing will change without policy stimulating it.

Musk and the tech bro mafia are telling him robots will replace the work force while we get decimated by inflation for 10 years paying for it all. So he's just ignoring the logistics while he works on the greatest deal only a very stable genius and his sycophants could come up with...

This is the plan. It is all or nothing to our sherbet pervert.

It will in fact be nothing. It is entirely macro and puddle deep. It has no plan for inflation or restarting industry. Who would want to be vassal to a country that can't produce a ship?

Oh no not Tik Tok or China whining!

So many more critical reasons to concern yourself with this moldy orange than him grifting Tok Tok stans or being equitable with China...

I'll be sure to ask Santa for the gift of policy this Christmas. It will be cheaper than a new rice cooker by then no doubt.

He can't write a SQL query so he'll bury the data in uncommented spaghetti code thrown together under a stop watch.

I've watched banks take 2 years just to meet Basel III reporting guidelines but he'll do it in a single session.

I feel autarky should be a goal, not a curse. Trade a compliment, not a core.

And war the last resort.

An age of terrifyingly dense information which is either hard to look at, hard to understand, or both. We are offered endless platters of pre-digested, heavily processed or entirely artificial information catered to ever limited time being consumed by consumption itself.

It's #2. Which is why there is no plan in place like Biden's inflation reduction act for chips, which Republicans conveniently kept from that bill, for other industries.

Not an endorsement but bad plans are still plans:

You'd be coping

Uh huh...

What if I told you neither party represents working Americans?

No universal healthcare
No addressing housing crisis
No minimum wage increase
No lower healthcare costs
No stopping offshoring
No addressing wealth divide
No addressing wage growth
Bailout banks 👍
Bailout students 👎

I can go on...
