Trump supported Obama. Did you notice?
Seriously, you didn't expect this? Trump reaches out to people like that because he knows he can get a moment in front of the media where he will seem like a strong, confident, and benevolent leader.
This is Town Hall Trump.

I am a capitalist. I struggle though when it comes to profit motive for healthcare. I’ve had some experience that rubs me the wrong way. Maybe some of you have as well. I also think there’s room for a profit in the system. Comes down to need vs want.
Regulated utilities take everyone regardless of credit and still maintain high quality, high availability, and a reasonable return for their shareholders. There are programs for people who can't pay. It has pretty much worked for close to 100 years.
Why does something like that work, but health care is horrible?

I didn't see any actual cooking going on, just mixing of prepared ingredients. It didn't even look like any heat was involved until the dish was pushed into the other chamber.
No thanks.
No thanks.

If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.

This season could have been very different if we simply eliminated so many stupid penalties.
re: So…who calls plays vs Vandy
Posted by CharlesUFarley on 11/3/25 at 11:48 am to CorchJay
Yep. 216 points in 4 games, 93 in the other 9.
Tells a story.
That team would have slaughtered any of Freeze's teams.

Anybody can call plays. Come up with your favorite 15 (really 30 because you can go either side). And keep running the ones that work. Mix in some randoms, but keep going back to what works.

This article has some analysis on this subject. It concludes that the total return of JEPI and JEPQ lag the market, and you could have achieved the same total return with something like 67%QQQ and 33% cash, or something similar.
YMMV

Growing your wealth is the way to "..actively use their resources to help those in need". It feeds the engine the gives people jobs and opportunities to grow wealth themselves, so they can spread opportunity to others as well. More people benefit from this investment cycle than could ever benefit from a handout.
re: Interesting how climate change isn't going to kill us now that AI data centers need power
Posted by CharlesUFarley on 10/30/25 at 9:42 am to stout
Actually, it's pretty simple. Most Big Government, Big Business, and Global Social initiatives have one goal: more control. It's simply become clear that it will be more easily accomplished through AI, Big Data, etc, than by an energy rationing program.

Just about every brokerage now has some kind of free or nearly free robo-advisor with the options for additional human advisory services for additional fees.
If you really don't know anything, then start with something like that but keep some small percentage of your assets separate and invest it the way you see fit. Evey year, compare the two and decide which one you want to stick with.

Asset allocation and periodic re-balancing are your friends. Large Growth stocks are overvalued, maybe, and if the bubble pops that's where most of the air will come from. Other asset types are not overvalued, or at least not as much.
re: I’m in my mid 40’s and applying for college
Posted by CharlesUFarley on 10/13/25 at 4:14 pm to pickle311
60 year old mechanical engineer here. Personally, I couldn't possibly sit in a class room again. I briefly though about grad school once then actually took a few days and walked around campus before a football weekend, including going through the engineering buildings and looking into the class rooms while the classes were in session. That's when I told myself "never again".
I spent the last half of my career in Automation and Motor Controls, much more electrical than mechanical. I was self taught. I applied controls and variable speed drives to plant processes to solve various problems. I was good at it and the bug bit me.
What goal do you want to accomplish with this degree? Most likely, to actually accomplish it will take way more individual initiative and self taught skills than it will any kind of classroom instruction or diploma on the wall.
Nobody who ever hired me really cared that much about what my degree was, they were way more interested in my skills and accomplishments.

The bad calls didn’t rattle Freeze he just sucks.
Disagree. He totally blew 3rd and short and 4th and short after he called the timeout hoping for a targeting call on our receiver.
Maybe he should have called the timeout, but he should have used that time to coach up the offense for a very makeable and critical short yardage play and not spend his time lobbying the refs. Both the 3rd and 4th down attempt looked like our offense wasn't ready.
