Since the time of the ancients, when the naked sky blazed with absolutely no light pollution, we were in awe of the lights we could see. Now we can see them like never before, let us give thanks!

Reaganomics, trickle-down economics, originally written on a cocktail napkin, I believe. Later had to be recanted by GHW Bush who called it "Voodoo Economics" because it was complete shite.

If you haven’t gotten the message that capitalism is moot yet, then I can’t help you.

It’s astounding. I’ve been studying the stock market, specifically crashes and bubbles, etc. to be seeing this in real time right now is just amazing. I mean, I knew Trump was a moron when it comes to the economy, but this is next level shit.

It’s amazing, I have been recently studying economics seriously, to be seeing this in real life is just astounding. And I see no way that Trump is going to be able to dig himself out of this hole. If this was happening under the democrats, people would be storming the whitehouse.

For a politician to speak like that, we are just in a new era of utter childishness. These people obviously do not care about this country. Maybe once everyone realizes that the cost of tariffs are always passed onto the consumer, thus making everything more expensive, these CHUDs will wake up.

No there is no data, these people are seriously making claims with nothing to back them up. It’s ridiculous.

Oh come on now they’re killing the fucking wolves? Was the movie Dances with Wolves not depressing enough- we just needed to add more senseless slaughter? I am so about to just give up on this country.

I would say the 1970s, I think the Kennedy assassination irreparably broke this nation. It proved that it was no longer trustworthy, that great lengths would be gone to in order to promote wealth.

So sad

I was just having this argument today, somebody making the most outlandish claims and I asked for sources, I’ve asked Elon Musk for the sources of all the “corruption” he’s found. Numbers are meaningless if you cannot back them up!

Mary and Joseph had it easy, they only had a king looking for them, not carpet bombing, snipers that kill children and white phosphorous which can burn through bone.

But really there is absolutely no evidence that the paper straws are worse and those plastic ones ARE a nightmare.

So we hang in a kind of limbo of petty back and forth political theater. Absolutely nothing new to bring to the table.
I’ll spend four years dismantling what you’ve created, then we can have four more years of trying to rebuild it!

Just one of the many, many, many petty displays our current meat puppet in office is enacting. However the liberals are just as guilty of such pettiness. All beholden to a neoliberal economy and the dream of US hegemony to actually take big boy steps to revolutionary change.

It’s truly unspeakable the horrors that have been allowed to go on. The “pro-life” politicians that take money from AIPAC can truly never pretend to be pro-life after all we have learned of the actual slaughter and infanticide aided by our tax dollars and military complex.

And that insight into the treacherous stealing of property, bulldozing homes families have lived in for decades, burning olive trees to destroy the livelihood the livelihood of a family who has lived there for generations, is so very important.

NPR has okay coverage but they definitely do not give insight into how Israel came from this map where their allotted territory has been highlighted in pink- to todays map

Over twenty years of total inaction. When speaking out against Israel made people uncomfortable and not want to be around you. I just hope we do not go back to it….

Luckily I have a conscience and apparently more curiosity and drive than my fellow man as I, even back in the time before social media, at the tender age of fourteen, had already taken up the fight against Zionism. So, yeah, you don’t need to tell me about inaction, I lived through

Interesting topic, I am highly interested in economics and the workings of the Fed right now. However, with Musk under some made up title, in the Fed, I think that perhaps we need worry more about defaulting on our debts!
