Makes no sense to have the country’s air traffic held hostage by lawmakers in Washington every few years.

This could be a hard sell to the ATC crowd. They get nice checks (6 digit mid career) and pensions right now. Their pension after 25 years can be $50,000 to $70,000 for life.

Sometimes things really are different. You can't just project the past indefinitely into the future. For one, we know population growth isn't there as an engine like it used to be. Possibly offsetting that is the rise of AI. etc.

But by no means should people casually assume that US equities are going to print the same numbers they have printed in the past.

OK, then offer something up. Should we just say frick it and burn this shite to the ground :lol:

How does one even invest if you cannot use history as a guide?

Why bring in the state universities to that chart?

No one with any sense would consider Ol’Miss on the same academic level of Texas or Texas A&M.

Most universities are built around in-state students, finally the Mississippi schools are going to have higher educated incoming freshmen. There is no denying how bad Mississippi was historically, but we can all celebrate a change to the positive and look forward to what the change might to do for the state.

This feels like jealousy, not a good look Texas. You are supposed to be the Big Brother here.

The lawsuit is against the LSU Board of Supervisors. If he wins, there will be some deciding on where the funds come from. While the media may seem to be hyping up the state to pay (what I heard on radio), LSU may be able to self-fund through donors and athletic budget. If the donors balk, it is going to get interesting. If it makes it to Board of Regents or legislative appropriation, essentially taxpayers are paying.
