For decades people have been warming about inverted totalitarianism… where private companies do the heavy lifting in controlling and surveillance or the population. Very few listened. Now that we are approaching complete sacrifice of your privacy to these companies, people are finally waking up. But it may be too late.

And Kirk died for what he believed in. Gun rights. Biden prided himself in funding cancer research.

Allowing the Fed to artificially keep interest rates down for 15 years is not “Capitalism sucks”. Its pure, unadulterated asset inflation purposely done. ZIRP policies were a choice made that have gotten us to where we are with asset prices.

3% mortgages did this. If mortgages were kept around historical averages of 7 percent, the asset inflation wouldn’t have occurred. The monthly costs at 7 percent currently are unaffordable except for the top 20%.

We have a lot of retirees right now. There are 56 million people over 65 receiving SS according to the SSA. The 25-54 participation rate is a better measurement of whose actually working:

This is the Fed’s fault.

There should have never been less than 3 percent mortgages. They basically gave away free home equity to an entire generation. And you know what they did? Bought 2nd homes and allowed VRBO/AirB&B to thrive. Now with “normal” interest rates, none of this makes any sense.

Altman passion is to make more money. He is a venture capitalist primarily, making billions on his previous investments in tech companies. He is not a human existence 99.9999 % of us can emulate.

EMPs are cheap.

Anti drone guns exist.

General strikes that do real economic damage would work. They would round up the leaders and prosecute them as terrorist each time.

Hamn is a horrible human being.

A pledge died at his fraternity under his watch. The individuals involved barely got a slap on the wrist.

The sports gambling apps will be the number one cause of divorce in the US one day. The sheer number of married men betting on them…

This country will never, ever vote a woman in as President. The “What I see as a leader” (sexism) runs too deep.

I want cold fusion, cancer to be cured for 1 dollar, and flying ponies. But I know I’m not getting those.

They aren’t going to get true AI either.

Imagine failing this hard at your job and keeping it.

And I know his job is to keep the stock price high… but 28 percent growth over the last five years in tech is still failing at your job.

The letter will contain words! And perhaps a threatening if you do…. And then the opposition party will go back home to attack the Democratic socialists. Their real job.

Correct. Remember Mr. Hope and change? Well he was more to the right than Colin Powell. He would have kneecaps Social security if there wasn’t a group of Tea party that couldn’t be seen working with him.

Hint: he doesn’t know.

Their competition (Nintendo and Steam) already don’t have physical media. Nintendo is moving towards 100% Game Key cards, and Steam is all downloads. Playstation could have used physical media as a competitive advantage, but decided against it for cost reasons. So now this is the end of gaming physical media. The game sizes are just way too large.

The best part is, now that Mandami is being criticized by the Fox outrage machine, all of the government websites that had similar recommendations are being changed.
