Further, one - GDP - is only US production, but a sizable portion of NVDA business is in other economies.
Finally (?) the market cap of just the S&P 500 is twice the U.S. GDP.
The stock market is arguably overvalued, but comparing those two data points is a weak way to prove it.

Good example of social media clickbait. Throw out two loosely related numbers, implying that people should draw an obvious conclusion, then sit back and watch people debate conclusions.
One of those numbers is a measure of perceived future value. The other is a measure of past production.

Funneling taxpayer money to red states while throwing away the fruits of their labor. How does this make sense?

I think Rupar misinterpreted Trump. He wasn’t declaring that Ukraine can’t get Crimea back, he was offering terms to end the war. As if he has the ability to do that.

I’ve listened to it multiple times.
Some times it sounds like one, other times the other, and at times “ort“.
The least dramatic explanation is poor enunciation - so poor that native English speakers interpret the sounds randomly, not simply “hear what you want to hear.”

They aren’t thinking clearly.
Canada as a 51st US state would make it the most populous one, with the most Congresspeople.
More than 80% of Canada’s Parliament would be considered U.S. liberals or centrists. With Canada, Congress would impeach Trump.
Or do they plan to negate that, somehow?

Similarly, Americans have been “giving” more money to China, per person.
I’m not sure where that leads. Should USA be a Chinese province?
(Canada should not become part of the USA, IMO.)

Then please fix its Wikipedia page, which says:
“The United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) is an independent, nonpartisan government agency.”
But I now know that only Congress can remove the comptroller general.
