re: WSJ Piece: Americans Want Populist Policies That Defy Traditional Political Labels

I see more and more self proclaimed MAGA, “Democrats are evil” types on this board spouting anti corporate messaging. Oil companies, pharmaceutical companies, retail, banks are all taking heat. It’s fascinating to watch Republican voters embracing leftist ideas in real time.

Will Elon have the same UBI as me? I feel like I already know the answer.

Shitty job prospects and the high cost of higher education in states without a TOPS program

Mine too, public school just outside of Houston, Senior year 1997. Got 3 licks for 3 day for chewing gum in class. Same year same punishment for not shaving and another 3 for 3 for cutting a class. Principal played briefly for the Dolphins and could swing a paddle like Paul Bunyan swung an axe.

Herd size is mainly due to prolonged drought in the western us combined with higher prices that discourage producers from holding back females to grow their herd. It’s hard to keep a heifer worth 2k or more just so she might have a calf in 18 months

You are right. That cash is just like the 24 billion we will send them over the next 60 days.

Eventually yes, everything is cyclical. The majority of people who aren’t hyper political will eventually tire of this. You can already see some small cracks just from reading this board over the past month.

No offense but you guys keep getting your hopes up and one of a few things is going to happen:
1) the referral dies on someone’s desk at DOJ, so nothing
2) the admin pushes it, no attorney will take it so it gets pushed to someone incompetent and dies before it ever gets argued in court, so nothing
3) low level guy take the fall, get a slap on the wrist and a promise “your family will be taken care of while you are gone.” and they come out wealthy. Justice I guess?
It’s not like we haven’t seen this before

Same thing happened to my oldest son. We stayed there in February but it didn’t hit until he had been home a few days. He ended up in the ER. Odd

Define “we”.
I’m sure my and your large cap funds in my 401k include oil companies so I guess we going to profit on some small level. Will it be enough to offset the inflation in caused by global disruption of commodity markets? Idk.

re: How is the Strait of Hormuz closed?
Posted by Nome tiger on 4/5/26 at 10:18 am to Centinel
Oil, fertilizers, ammonia, lng, and other commodities are traded worldwide. By removing a portion of supply from the global market, you and every other American are now paying considerably more for those products due to reduced worldwide supply. You ask why am I paying more? Because, the companies that produce those goods in America are willing to ship them across the world to the highest bidder. So, let use refined diesel and say India is willing to pay $6/gal, the American wholesale price from a gulf refiner will be $6- transportation cost to India. Same goes for nitrogen fertilizer, LNG, sulfuric acid.

Thank god someone here has a working brain. I’m so fricking tired of the “we” have oil bullshite. Unless you own the controlling interest in a multinational oil company, then “we” don’t have oil. Last I checked, the US government owned zero drilling rigs and zero refineries. The only thing you should expect is to pay whatever someone else in the entire fricking world will pay minus the cost of transportation for fuel and petroleum products. Global business runs by maximizing revenue not patriotism.

“We” don’t have shite. Exxon, Shell, Chevron, ect have oil. Unless you are a communist and want to nationalize these companies or institute an export ban then they will continue to sell into the global market and price oil accordingly.

re: CIA Kept Soviet Cancer Research Classified for 64 Years

Nah she was a good person. But a dumbass for trusting her husband's research over the advice of her Oncologist. It was extremely hard on my wife and her sisters watching their mother die from a treatable cancer with a high survival rate.
Plus at this point I doubt she cares what I think.

Well, I hope you never get cancer but if you do let me tell you how it will go because I watched this happen with my dumbass mother in law.
1) You are not doing chemo or radiation because there are plenty of alternative treatments, so you eliminate all sugar and carbs to “starve” the tumor. You take multiple anti parasitic drugs because “cancer is just like a parasite”
2) You feel good and tell everyone how great your plan is and how the doctors don’t know everything. “Do your own research”
3)Meanwhile, new scans show the original treatable tumor has grown and metastasized all throughout your body.
4) You panic and start chemotherapy and radiation.
5) You painfully die from a treatable cancer because you were a dumbass that thought you had unlocked the hidden secret to cancer treatment by researching on the internet.
Good luck.
