If it wasn't for retards and trolls, the US economy would look a lot different. In fact, I'm not sure my portfolio would be performing quite as well.

Pieter is just upset because he's not riding the gravy train. Me, I'm happy millions of voters think the same way you do, and keep promoting the borrow & spend agenda.

DOW went up another 500 points - print, print, print. But it's all good, no? After all, deficits don't matter and the poor Russian bear is certainly on the ropes.

There isn't any secret conspiracy to print money, it's quite out in the open.

Sometimes a Russian despot strong-arming neighboring states to reestablish historical hegemony over the region is just a Russian despot strong-arming neighboring states to reestablish historical hegemony over the region. You don't really need to delve into Free Masons, Illuminati, Jewish bankers, or ancient aliens to understand it.

As with the the Leftist conspiracy theorists, I'm always fascinated that only the U.S. can have alternative motives and that every other country in the world is innocent.

It’s not print, it’s borrow.

Federal government borrows.

If it printed, it would not have to borrow. (oops).
