    None of this fixes anything permanently. They will be back with the next presidency unless legislation is put forth about politicians not being able to accept campaign money from lobbyists. That's got a low likelihood of happening. He can make all the statements he wants, but statements do...

    For the thinkers around here. Good review on modern manias and manipulation. Couple zinger quotes: the word reatarded: "I'm so glad we resurrected that word" "there is no substitute for thinking for yourself"

    Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

    Chickens will up and die for no apparent reason sometimes. Honestly I have found that purebreds do this more than mongrels. Hybrid vigor I suppose. These days I keep purebreds for the characteristics I want in the flock and cull the ones that don’t make the standard. My random deaths have gone...

    You missed the point. Supply either outpaces demand because nobody wants the product or the price is higher than what most are willing to pay for it. I am talking about the fact that we are in a macroeconomic environment where the price is too high and will have to come down to meet the price...

    Couple things: 1. How brainwashed are we as a society to actually think that a lower rate of monetary debasement is a good thing? How about zero. Lower inflation is still inflation. People are either stupid, uneducated or both. 2. In a fiat system be very careful about desiring lower...

    What she is saying is that they are intentionally trying to capitalize on his weakness of hubris and form a blind spot with regards to them, not just favor. They are laying praise on him with a trowel, to quote Shakespeare. I would be leery of taking all of the pomp and circumstance associated...

    India vs Pakistan

    This wont go well. Several Chinese companies are there exploiting the minerals. Pakistan needs Balochistan as well for farming/livestock. China isn't going to give up its investments and Balochistan's role in the China's belt and road initiative. So China will support the Paks in squashing this.

    Ukraine war Bullshit.

    Some chatter that they may be trying to take back Transcarpathia. Ukraine sent two drones over to see what's up and were shot down by the Hungarians. https://www.theinteldrop.org/2025/05/14/second-front-hungary-moves-heavy-armor-to-ukrainian-border/

    A lot of what is going on in the ME has to do with breaking up BRICS (or at least keeping it at bay), minimizing use of the SWIFT alternative and holding on to dollar hegemony as long as possible. When looked at it from that perspective, what he is doing with them and the tariffs begin to make...
