    AI is making us dumb....

    I play trivia with a team competing against other teams at a local brewery every Thursday. We do not cheat, however, occasionally a new team will show up and get every question correct - because they are cheating. Anyhow, it has occurred to me, what is the point of knowing stuff, if we all...

    Do you care about the national debt?

    I'm not super concerned about the debt. The only part of the debt that really matters, is the part that is owned by foreign entities, and that is the direct result of our trade imbalance. The national debt is defined as the current face value of all outstanding treasury securities, however...

    Do you care about the national debt?

    It was followed by a recession, because balancing the budget is actually harmful to our economy.

    Biden's Over-Borrowing, Over-Spending, 9% Inflation, & Assorted Fiscal Follies Legacy

    Bad shit happens in any and every 4 year time span. Very little if any of it is directly do to the POTUS, it's just the crap that the POTUS had to deal with. If it had not been for covid, I believe that Trump would have been reelected in 2020. If the post covid inflation didnt happen, I...

    Biden's Over-Borrowing, Over-Spending, 9% Inflation, & Assorted Fiscal Follies Legacy

    You have to include people who have a wealth of hundreds of millions also - there are far more of them. Personally, I'm not suggesting confiscating wealth, but just a higher tax on excess income, and to tax all forms of income, regardless of source (earned, capital gains, inheritance, etc), alike.

    Biden's Over-Borrowing, Over-Spending, 9% Inflation, & Assorted Fiscal Follies Legacy

    The federal government made $2.6 trillion in funds available to respond to COVID-19 and spent $1.6 trillion of that in fiscal year 2020 The covid relief spending signed into law under Trump actually exceeded what was signed into law under Biden. You need to either blame both, or no one at all...

    Biden's Over-Borrowing, Over-Spending, 9% Inflation, & Assorted Fiscal Follies Legacy

    You are totally ignoring the fact that Trump dumped money into the economy also, and for good reason. Both parties did the right thing to keep us out of what likely would have been a horrible recession. The amazing bounce back from the short lived covid-depression was due to the helecoptering...

    Biden's Over-Borrowing, Over-Spending, 9% Inflation, & Assorted Fiscal Follies Legacy

    People who only "have a fundamental understanding of economics" are dangerous in that they think they understand economics, yet they are miles away from a solid understanding. I have a basic understanding of biology, took it in high school, but I betcha you wouldnt trust me to do your brain...

    [W: #78] Should gays be allowed to use the bathroom of their gender?

    Thats a link about just one incident. I bet in 10 seconds I could find some links to situations where the predator wasnt trans. What I am asking is there any compiled statistics that give the big picture and not just something someone cherry picked?

    [W: #78] Should gays be allowed to use the bathroom of their gender?

    Is there any actual evidence, aside from biased opinions, which indicates that trans people are more likely to commit sex crimes than non-trans?

    RFKJr. and food industry regulation

    Most people dont put in the effort. They just assume that one bag is one serving. I have even seen cookies that are individually packaged say that one cooky is two servings. It's intentionally misleading people, regardless of whether people are stupid or not. These cookies are actually sold...

    UK and France 'in talks' to deploy troops to Ukraine over fears of US removing support

    I figure the plan is the opposite of that. The plan (if there is even a plan) is to start Ukraine of support, forcing them into negotiation with Russia and ending with Russia keeping all the territory it has seized. Any words that come out of the Trump camp are most likely lies.
