Let’s not forget adding $30 trillion in national debt over the last 18 years to goose equity and home prices as boomers retire. It’s a two decade long debt fueled asset bubble from which Gen Z will inherit the bill and deferred infrastructure maintenance

In 2008 the national debt was $10 trillion. We’ve added $30 trillion in national debt over the short lifetime of Gen Z.
1. Is our national infrastructure in better shape than 2008?
2. Is the middle class in better financial shape than it was in 2008?
3. Is there more social mobility for the lower class today than in 2008?
This is a predictable response from a generation that has seen the public coffers raided and wealth concentrated at the top.

This is it in one paragraph. Whether or not this production continues will determine how this war ends. From last night's attacks on Kyiv, it is clear that the campaign against the Russian launch sites is failing. This has to be corrected quickly and followed by a successful campaign against the production centers. If both of these actions fail, Kyiv will lose this war.
Yea I do fear unless Ukraine can set up or be supplied with sufficient patriot systems, Kyiv is going to be bombed into some form of submission by ballistic missiles over the next 12-18 months.

This is one of the hardest things to remember and contextualize. The average American voter truly is retarded.
This is a wealthy, presumably educated women whose brother was a sitting senator and there is zero chance she could point to Taiwan on a map.
American politics are hard to predict. We are huge and largely retarded even on issues we care deeply about.

Posted on here 4 months ago. A US retreat from this conflict is as foreseeable as the sunrise.

The truth is we haven’t won a meaningful war since 1900 without a robust international alliance fighting with us and clear domestic mandate to fight. When we fight largely alone we typically lose. When we fight to depose a government and install a new one we usually lose. When we embargo and isolate a regime we usually embolden its extemism. And here we are contemplating a war we would fight without meaningful allies, with a weak domestic mandate, with the ultimate goal of regime change.

Marcus Davenport and I don’t think it’s particularly close. That team was primed to win a Super Bowl and Davenport was an all in pick to do it. And we whiffed. That pick is also wrapped up into letting Trey Hendrickson walk which alone might be the biggest blunder.
Otherwise, the post bounty gate moves were rough. Big extension for Jr Gallete, signing CJ spiller, acquiring Jarius Byrd, having three drafts from 2013-2015 that produced one decent player total (Terran Armstead), letting Roman Harper and Malcolm Jenkins walk out the door and giving up on Akeim hicks right before he put it all together.
We 100% win a Super Bowl if the Chicago bears akeim hicks is sitting in the center of our defense from 2016-2020.

Just chiming in that we did take the kids down to Chinatown. Really couldn’t recommend hoping on the river taxi more. My kids loved every minute of the boat ride there and back.
Other ferry boats gave great waves back to my kids. Private yacht owners are stone cold bitches won’t can’t be bothered to acknowledge us plebes.
Golden Bull was a great restaurant, but this excursion was all about the boat ride.
