Off-Topic / Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2 [732]


OK, have it your way - let's assume that Congress doesn't listen to me and they decide everything connected with spending, saving, economic policies etc. on their own.

So here's what I would do...

I would play golf or have fun with female interns and cigars. Or both.

This way I wouldn't do any damage to the perfect system of economic violence that the USA managed to achieve at great cost, using all its military might, bribery and diplomatic cunning. This system also benefits all our allies in Europe (including Poland). Sure, the third-worlders would keep suffering but that wouldn't worry us too much, now would it?

And here's what I wouldn't do...

I wouldn't impose tariffs on the entire world, driving up prices of everything for my beloved Americans. I wouldn't give insider trading tips to my billionaire friends whilst watching average Joe's retirement fund go down the drain. In other words, I wouldn't step on a rake and claim that it's 5D chess.

It's Lent, so I'm being nice to people and I won't respond the way I should.


Republicans have majority in Congress, don't they? So why shouldn't they follow their own president's advice and do all he asks them?

You have no idea how economy works, you fall for stupid populist slogans, and you treat LGBT the way Crow treats Vatican. Funny and sad at the same time.

And I told you in #296:

Put an irrevocable government ban on all budget deficits. Don't spend more than you earn. Go back to good old American thrift and curb the exorbitant consumerism. Stop spending more than you earn, which means not taking on any more government debt. Cut all you can cut, save as much as you can. Tighten your belt - that's what you do in times of crisis and not impose tariffs on the entire world (which will only result in driving up prices for American consumers).

The problem is Trump won't do it, he won't go back to honest common sense economy. He's a crook worried more about giving insider trading tips to his billionaire friends than about average Americans. Horrible president and a horrible person.

The only positive thing I can see in the current administration is cutting the government administration cost (although I'm not sure if they're cutting in the right places). Apart from that they're all over the place.

I already told you in #296.


You are being rude for no reason. I'm just explaining things to you in very simple terms. Trump is like Polish generals in 1939 - they wanted to win modern war with cavalry, Trump wants to win in modern globalised economy with 19th, early-20th century methods.


Your problem is that you elected a caveman for a president.

Tell ya what, Novi.

Go to your local coffee shop and buy a coffee for 5 bucks. Oh, no! Now you have a $5 trade deficit with the coffee shop - this is unacceptable. You have no other option but to fight this injustice, Trump-style. Impose a 50% tariff on them.

When you go there next time, your coffee will be $7.50. 5D chess.

*rolls eyes*

You think it's retarded? Well, it's even more retarded when you're a country that can print dollars and pay for coffee and everything with them (the inflation is spread all over the world, because dollar is the main reserve currency of the world). Add to this all the insider trading (billionaires making money while average joes losing money in their retirement funds) as well as the worldwide loss of credibility of the USA as an ally and you will see that your president is not only a caveman but also a crook who hurts his own people the most. But, by all means, knock yourself out and continue worshipping the orange-skinned 5D chess player.

Start living within your means. Don't spend more than you earn. Put an irrevocable government ban on all budget deficits. Rebuild your industry. Bring back the gold standard. Go back to good old American thrift and curb the exorbitant consumerism. It's all common sense really.

The most idiotic thing that you can do in the current situation is start a trade war with the entire world--a trade war that will put your most valuable asset, American Dollar, at peril and risk its position as international reserve currency. It's beyond retarded to put huge tariffs on all imports because the tariffs that your caveman of a president imposes will eventually be paid for by your own people.

And don't get me wrong - I don't want to see the downfall of America; I made nice money on American index funds and I don't mind strong American economy because almost the entire world benefits from the system but Trump is making a complete and utter mess of it all. Instead of telling American people that they have been living way beyond their means for decades (this applies to the rich and the middle classes) and now it's time for belt-tightening, hard work and thrift, he imagines that the entire world will pay for American profligacy. Ain't no gonna happen.


Well, I didn't get half-a-billion bucks from my Dad :)

Maybe these 50 countries (including China), as well as those who don't seek trade talks, should sell all the dollars and American bonds that they have, effectively turning dollar into a toilet paper (no more printing dollars and spreading inflation all over the globe for America). Perhaps they should also refuse to make any sort of transactions in dollars and stop all trade with the USA? I wonder who will first feel the consequences more heavily - the world or the USA. :)

Maybe the world should come to the conclusion that it's time to stop the exorbitant American consumption and their raping of the entire planet Earth? If an average Chinese consumed as much as an average American, we would need three additional planet Earths--is it fair?

It's a pity that it came to that but that's what happens when you choose a caveman to be your president.

News / Presidential elections 2025 - the race has commenced!!! [665]


You are right. I should have written 'what would be the point of life then?'. Peace, harmony and tolerance between everyone and everywhere? Really? Can there really be peace and harmony between truth and lie? Between light and darkness? Can there be tolerance between Christ and the devil? Consider this, hippie, before you talk nonsense again.

Also, please take a look at Serbs on this board - they don't change. Look at Poles or Russians - they are the same that they used to be. Look even at Brits. A Serb, a Russian, a Pole or a Brit would tell you the same thing one, two, three or four generations ago. But Germans... nooooo - you have to move between the extremes: you are either nazis or hippies. Could you at least try and be something in between, like everyone else? Or is it too much to ask?

Anyways, gotta beat it. See you later... hippie.

I suspected it, you're a hippie.


Endarkenment more like. If you can't be serious about your own religion - the matter of eternity, how can you be serious about anything in life - a matter of 80-90 years?

You might but it would be wrong. And satanic.


If they were sincere about their religion, they would. Apparently they're simply lukewarm and the Lord shall spit them out of His mouth.

Hmm... seeing that there is no place for Jesus or Saint Virgin Mary in judaism's heaven, then it is no heaven at all but hell. So, consequently, if a religion considers hell their heaven, it might be considered satanic.

You may agree or disagree with Braun's point of view but it is consistently traditional Catholic, without all this modern kumbaya-my-Lord, let's-all-hold-hands-in-brotherhood hippie nonsense.

Satanic is a good word to describe it. Right and proper.

That's why it won't be forgotten. It was forgiven, we are Christian after all, but it will not be forgotten.

Don't even get me started on this...

A Slavic Nazi is a thing to behold as a monument to human stupidity. A nationalist, OK... this I can understand (the sins of my youth I haven't made a secret of), but a nazi, parading in a SS uniform? Mind boggles.

And Americans are for peace? Why do you need your bases all over the world then? Now you only want peace with Russia because you want to concentrate on Pacific, namely China--the poor China (if an average Chinese consumed as much as an average American we would need three additional Earths) who dared to get a bit richer. The funniest thing is that when American greed finally causes nuclear war and the inevitable nuclear winter comes, the northern hemisphere will become uninhabitable and all the Novichoks and other wall-building anti-immigrant retards will have to emigrate to South America and Africa (Australia won't be able to take in everyone) themselves. Hahahahaha - imagine people in Africa saying: "all those Americans can f*ck off back to their frozen sh*thole and stop invading our countries". :D

Erm... did I say they fixed the vote? I said that they manipulated the British, and there is more than ample evidence that Russian entities were spreading disinformation campaigns surrounding Brexit. And it wasn't only Russian state-run media outlets like RT and Sputnik who were widely involved in disseminating pro-Brexit content but also Russian bots and troll farms were active on social media, spreading false or divisive content that aligned with the pro-Brexit campaign's talking points.

It was all described in 2020 UK's Parliamentary Intelligence and Security Committee report, as well as confirmed independently by EU and US Investigations. You can argue how much this Russian interference swayed the outcome of the referendum, but it's an undeniable fact that the manipulation and disinformation was conducted on a large scale.
