Yeah, we’re good.
Junk bonds are 5%. Not 12% or 17%. Risk is mispriced. This is exactly like every other credit bubble. Most recently 2008. Greenspan lowers interest rates to near zero following Sept 11 and the train could not be stopped. Investors bought mispriced risky shit like mortgage backed securities.
Nobody wanted to stop the addiction and feel a little necessary pain.
The cycle repeats itself. It always gets corrected... it just hurts worse each time it happens. Trump will almost certainly dodge the crisis but he might not. No one knows when or exactly how but it’ll come.

Wow! A conservative who lauds outsized Keynesian economic stimulus and excessively stimulative monetary policy in the mature phase of the business cycle! Have we entered into the political Bizarroverse?Quote:

But to your point of the second scenario: When the wealth of those uber-rich is farmed using a Sanders-style wealth tax to fund the Green New Deal, there will be a lot less people living in cardboard boxes.
To those of you who think Sanders would be easily beat by Trump in the general election, you might want to listen to this conservative political analyst discuss the matter.

You blame homelessness on progressivism? And you insinuate that a country soft on crime, the U.S. lol, need step it up? Is homelessness a crime now?Quote:

It’s been said before but it’s remarkable how sincere and true to his message he has been for decades.
The video is just evidence - it’s not too remarkable

Trump broke ground as a Presidential candidate by using disparaging nicknames even in debate. Kinda shocking initially but nobody was really going to defend any of these sketchy characters. They could take the abuse. Most of them earned it.
Few favorites:
Lyin Ted
Crooked Hillary
Little Marco
Trump has not tagged Sanders yet. I think Druff observed this before. Someone posted evidence that Trump is most concerned with Sanders.
Trump needs to tread carefully if he is considering mocking Sanders. Agree or disagree with the idea of Bernie Sanders but you can’t describe him as a pandering Democrat. That is so damn unique in such a profoundly corrupt age.
This may not be a unique take but I think this is a third rail issue for me. As ridiculous as Trump is (the perfect President for these ridiculous times) nothing will snap him off clean than attacking Sander’s character.
Dare you, Donald. Cause this is THE litmus test for crazy. I don’t think he goes there. Guy knows reality show, FaceBook, Twitter ‘Murica.
Family owns a small business and yet my wife is a Bernie guy. She’s actually getting a little aggressive and frankly it’s kind of a turn on.
I don’t think it’s role playing.

I was making the point to SPIT This that even though I live on the coast and am educated (and Jewish, for that matter), my politics and general worldview do not align at all with the coastal and Hollywood elite.

In addition to my PredictIt holdings, I bet Biden to win Iowa at +230, Sanders to win New Hampshire at -200, and Bloomberg to not be the nominee at -800 on a sportsbook. The latter are pretty lockish. Iowa anything could happen, but I think Biden probably has at least a 35% chance of winning. Anything over 30% chance is +EV, and it's a hedge against New Hampshire.
I'm working on a sequel to Weekend at Bernies that involves Sanders passing away, but his supporters put sunglasses on him and prop him up and continue his campaign pretending he's alive.

100% agree with this....Trump and the GOP need to hammer away on economic and fiscal matters come election time. His accomplishments get tossed under the mat and he gets credited for nothing.Quote:

I think Trump will favor well against each candidate but he needs to have strong turnout in Florida, Arizona, North Carolina, Ohio, and Michigan....its kind of gotta be a perfect storm like 2016.
If they're really smart, they'll hammer away at the financial and economic matters and at the same time convince people that they aren't actually hammering away at it and it's actually better than most people think, and all the MSM criticism is fake news ,Trump is a victim, Democrats are elitists, etc.Quote:

The DNC is changing the Democratic debate rules so Mike Bloomberg can participate in the next debate. It will soon no longer be necessary to have donors to your campaign.
Bloomberg will continue to rise in the polls which will spell certain doom to Buttigieg, Warren, Klobuchar, Yang and Steyer.
The race will soon be down to Biden, Sanders and Bloomberg.

Bernie Sanders has the most volunteers.
The most donors. He has raised the most money than any other Democratic candidate running for President.
Bernie is now ahead by 4 points against Joe Biden heading into Iowa.
Will Bernie Sanders win the Democratic nomination?
Sorry Bernie, the DNC is bringing back Super Delegates to stop you.
DNC members discuss rules change to stop Sanders at convention

Anybody else watching CNN? Can't believe all the retards who show up at the caucus site still undecided.
Iowans: "We take the selection process very seriously"
Also Iowans: "Uh, yeah I decided this morning"
I always find this shocking because everyone I know has decided months before they step into a voting boothQuote:
