Putting in more every week. And waiting for the work bonus in June. I wouldnt mind getting deep discounts in June. Sucks to look at it real-time each day, but it's a long game for me.

If they were smart, we wouldn’t be 40 trillion in debt and still running a deficit. If your neighbor ran his household that way, you’d call him a fricking buffoon and you’d be correct.

You people...


A nation-state's economy isn't anything like a person's checkbook. Macro vs. micro.

You mean the experts that gave us 50 year high inflation and record setting illegal border crossings. Not to mention increasing deficits despite unemployment being at record lows

Youre right, its a lot easier to come up with fancy bullshite theories for macroeconomics to excuse being fiscally irresponsible.

Believing that there will never be consequences to that fiscal irresponsibility apparently is what you consider "smart"

Oh, I see. Basic economic principles cease to exist when you slap the “nation state” label on it. Then all logic goes out the window and consequences magically disappear. Thanks for clearing that up for us dummies.

The S&P stands for “soys and progs”


That’s why the big companies on it all are in soy industries like computers and electric cars

When the soys and progs are in it goes up, when a real man takes charge it goes down

Trump added more to the deficit than anyone except maybe Biden.

What did other presidents know that he didn’t?

I'm getting my ducks in a row for a Roth conversion. My personal rule is that a 10% drop is time to plan a Roth conversion and a 20% drop is time to execute the conversion.

No one is saying that the US should continue doing what we’ve been doing, but we could run a deficit every year for the next century and be fine financially. The much larger concern is the pace of debt growth, not the fact that it exists.

I definitely don't want to live in a USA with 0 debt. Standard of living lower than it has to be for what reason? Our society as we know it is possible because of debt as an instrument

Debt growth vs production growth is all that matters.

And i think it's true at every level of economics to some extent. Want a house and you aren't already rich? Guess what, I'd rather get some debt than be homeless.
