Sell our military bases to our CCP masters, of course.

I think we start by punishing the corporations and the elite. Those at the top of the ladder think that we are “beneath” them. They sit in their upper west side penthouses and 20 million dollar ocean side mansions in silicon valley.

We need to step out of the way of the rats and let the rats go after the “elite.” Play the bottom of the ladder against the top.

Let’s stop protecting the rich.

I believe the great crash of ‘08 had divided government at the time

How can Biden win after he lost?

Basically, yes. Wall Street does not care if American workers are screwed over and jobs are shipped to China. It might mean less consumption in some areas, but there will be more in others.

True, but there were extenuating circumstances, Fannie Mae, market speculation, etc.

All they care about is the stimulus crap.

Wall Street loves a divided government (and so should we). They are betting we keep the Senate it seems.

Nah, they’ll squeeze more stimulus cash out of the Dems and then go on with business as usual. The markets care about certainty. They can make money with Dems they can make money with Republicans. They just need to know who’s in charge so they know what tricks to pull to scam the rest of us.

Something like 5% of the S&P 500 is private U.S. investors. You know, people. The rest are institutional and international investors. So, most of the reason we are where we are financially is because of them. No one thing is good or bad for everybody.

Or are they sure that Biden will be crowned? Remember most of Wall Street donated to Biden.

One would think that the Dow (and other world markets) would tank with the prospect of President Heels Up. Well,world markets except Shanghai that is.

Markets rise and fall regardless of who the President is. The sooner folk understand that, the better they will be.

That’s where illegals come in to the globalist equation.

Tremendous pressure is being applied to President Trump - and we the people - to concede, and I think this may be another point of leverage. “See how good the markets are doing now that we have a new president elect? You don’t want to rock the boat and destroy that, do you?”

The market has been up like crazy since election night once it became clear the “Blue Wave” would not materialize. With divided government, the Trump tax cut stays put, and Biden is limited to executive orders — all of which will be blocked by the new Trump appointees — to implement his socialist agenda.

We should be watching these two elections like Smaug watched over his treasure or like Sauron searching for his ring.

What do we do when we have to cut programs to make the debt interest payment?

There is an old rule of economics and business.

Payments that cannot be made will not be made.

This is a cash flow problem.

Payments will be made until they cannot be made.
