Youtube hearted comments of (@jmitterii2).

I'm usually not for booing at these things, just let the fuck face talk, short boos, and let the fuckers get off stage. But in this case, I'm sick of this overt one party horse shit. The delusion is over. We want an actual opposition party, one that actually is for and by and of the people. So I would boo the fucker. Then try chanting "Social security!" over and over again. We have socialism. Any fucking economics class was explain essentially all nations are mixed social-capital market systems. We are a social country. Socialism doesn't mean dictatorship. Capitalism has had just as much dictatorships and oligarchies and plutocracies that were tyrannical. Often socialist policies is what saved nations by ensuring the peasants got some dignity by enjoying the fruits of advanced technology that delivers more productivity. These jack asses are done. Their so disconnected they have no fucking clue how ridiculously overtly dishonest they are to all of us. We fucking travel. Canada is next door. And a trip to Germany, France, UK, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Japan, even Australia (the most expensive flight ticket). And we have the internet to get the juicy details on exactly what they pay compared to us. They don't have medical bankruptcies. We do. They're not beholden to their employer (like a feudal serf to the feudal lord) for meager discount program that pretends to be insurance. *Canada is for supplemental insurance like dental and prescription that is provided at a pharmacy. But there is discussion on closing those loop holes in their universal coverage: adding full coverage to dental and especially prescription medication outside a hospital/clinic. At the end of his idiocy, I think I would chant "There is a party that fits your shit, go join the RNC, we want a real opposition in policy party, not plutocrat vs plutocrat bullshit."

Ponzi and pyramid that is the tulip market comes undone. :( Was fun to trade it for a while... but I think lots of others really got screwed drinking the kool-aid and the conditioning... that even Coin Base taught... HODL I learned from them. That's irresponsible. Make it cute to train and condition people to become bag holders.

The migration thing is a sort of a cyclical thing. People moving here to Idaho from say California or other states tend to come and realize they make next to nothing in terms of income, and job opportunities are shit. The work at home bull is just that, you're just expendable on the next downturn and will have to leave this state to find employment in person elsewhere... same shit and smell just blowing away from the face, to later come wafting back into your face. The population count though is here to stay and go down. This was expected. Alarm was that the world's population would increase beyond resources. Various statisticians and sociologists and biologists have long concluded that advances in technology tends to arrest the growth rate in all cultures over time. In decent economies the growth balances to a net 0. And negative if social policies are horrid. Slight positive if they're beyond horrid and enter into a dark age or regress as child mortality goes up birth rates go up. Since developing nations have decreasing child deaths, birth rates also decline. Additionally, as nations shift from farming to market driven economies, children become a liability, not an asset. They cannot help earn additional income, at least not right away, for the household, and in fact even in their teen years they tend to never repay the infant and childhood cost of caring for the child. They are indeed a fiscal deficit on a household, unlike agrarian under developed nations where the child is immediately put to work as soon as they're able body for farming and other goods producing activities. As for the death rates increasing, this is bad when you see life expectancy fall. This typically happens in very seldom situations: 1) Poor to nonexistent social services. 2) Diminish economic circumstances including inequality becoming severe. 3) War and Civil War. Including invasion by a foreign force. 4) Governmental collapse. 5) Pandemics and epidemics disease oriented. Most of these are deaths of despair. We see this frequently in the 1990's in Japan, Korea, Taiwan... but this also was observed in former Soviet States as well as Russia. The US has now come into this same global malaise as it is vulnerable for all of the above reasons now to a lowering of the life expectancy age. Prior to the pandemic, US 2015 to 2018 3 years in a row lost life expectancy. Again, deaths from despair: opium crisis to suicide increases attributable to worsening economic situation by most (inequality). And poor social services in this country particularly compared to many other nations including 2nd world nations such as Mexico.... lack of universal affordable medical or even access to basic living conditions. Many now live in tents in RV's tantamount to a new Hoover-ville phenomena. Culminating in cartoons being elected president, a weird beer belly putsch at the capitol, and continuation of poor inequity in work to wages. So yes, people like myself are saying fuck you pimps in the real-estate business, particularly the landlords... but this extends to others up the chain who essentially own all of the country in terms of a feudal like plutocracy. You all fuckers better have kids, because I'm not making a peasant to row your boats... you all get up off your entitled ass and row your own boat. Cock suckers can scam your own heirs in who gets you the beer and sucks your butt holes. I will not sire a child to provide you with a serf. So... row you're own damn boats. And yes, this part of the population demographic is here to stay. The immigration.... that's cyclical. And always will be. Grass is greener on the other side... no it isn't... boom back to where they came from, or a few skip around to another place where the grass might be greener but probably isn't.

Germany already did this. China is also.

Hyperinflation happens when governments completely fail. Weimar Failed. And then it had hyperinflation. It was crushed under the credit crunch of 1929, in debt nationally and domestically along with the WWI reparation requirements it let money printer go burrr for what shell of a government existed. Similar happens frequently in our times in Central and S. America and African countries; most of these nations actually use USD or other national currency to perform majority of transactions, as their governments are weak and often fail. So it's unlikely hyperinflation... unless your government fails completely. In that case, investing isn't your main concern, but basic needs of feeding your face, shelter, and essential hygiene. There is no life in a devoid government, only misery.

Immigration is a problem in most countries, and where countries emigration (people are leaving) is a problem, housing is still not affordable for them either. Or where immigration nor emigration is no problem, and even the birth rates are down, you still have immense affordability problems such as Japan. It's a banking CDO/CLO nonsense largely, but also lack of planning among cities and provinces/states and the national government on ensuring housing quality and supply. The fact that most countries discontinued programs that built homes on tax subsidies and even managed some of these retaining ownership of large complexes so that rents were nonprofit meaning private had to compete with public housing. Vienna Austria is very good on this subject. And the development system fell apart, after the great depression and after world war 2; most nations had a robust subsidies in development where our taxes paid for lots and utilities. Now its up to the developer to install even roads along with sidewalks and parks along with utilities and these private developers pass that cost on to the lot buyer. But the tax that subsidized this development? Still being taxed. USA its property tax. A robust housing plan has always been central to ANY country that had ANY level of prosperity in the periods implemented. Homestead Act and Land Grant Acts starting in 1863's and thru the 1880's is what developed the US. Without it. Most of the mid west to the west would still be vacant robber owned paradise emptiness. As those acts faded by 1890 thru 1920's most people in the US had serious issues on affordable housing. Swinging 20's was really just top 20%. 80% or more were actually dirt poor, dirt in that their homes as we would see them today, often referred to at that time as "cabins" were in our eyes shacks, sheds, dirt floor with maybe a caste iron stove in the middle of this shack, if any divisions for rooms it was a blanket or towel drawn across a section of the shack. Wasn't until 1935 HUD and some other programs that incentivized counties and states to develop modern housing construction (utilities water and sewer and electricity). My great grandparents were recipients of this in Idaho... and until early 2000, the modern home they lived in, the property still contained the "cabin" my grandma initially grew up in along with 4 other siblings. Dirt floor shack, caste iron stove, uniquely positioned over a small creek so I guess they didn't have to venture out of the shack to collect water as a piece of the shack overhung the little stream. Planning. Instead Milton Friedman let markets just do whatever nonsense. Everyone is living thru that nightmare. Which actually insights a level of immigration causing war and civil war to become more prevalent. And of course, the rest of the population to think it's mostly immigration problems. When it's our idiot economic structure brought to you by an oligarch near you who sponsored the now dead Milton Friedman crackpot idiocy... handing the economic market rules over to these very robber barons once again, time and time again throughout human history both in the western European to eastern European to Asia to India this type oof oligarchical rule by the rich degrades to a state of feudalism... since Ancient Greece to Ancient Rome. We can only be so glad that, even as early as the 1800's, slavery was somehow still socially acceptable, because... the oligarchs loved freed persons competing with slavery... you can't. And that's why they loved it. We have to realize social mixed market economies are required, and without any planning... This is the nightmares we return to living in. Over and over and over and over and over again. But there are always different periods in time we can look at to discern economic models that work... as well as in the present... Vienna Austria has a very robust public housing program that makes housing affordable. And the homes are very luxurious. Even the wealthy are allowed and do partake in the program.

And banks weren't in the interest in recouping low interest rates with increasing appraisal prices so they can make up the lower interest by lending more principle. This is where government that didn't come from the banking sector which it has for the past 40 years, should have prohibited the collective cartel like upping the appraisal prices. The lending should have remained with ratio of incomes. Not with the asking price and desire of the bank to make up for lower interest rates by lending high principle.

@Dorkeydaze You kind of notice this... he twits something now, and it's not doing the fomo nonsense it once did... a recent series of dogecoin and bitcoin tweets... and those actually fell shortly after his twits. (Yes I know it's not called Twits... but that's what I call them).

But only know the words, how to say them. But not their definition.

"If you're a supporter of Ukraine you can donate... if you're a supporter of Russia.... go fuck yourself." Exactly, brought a smile to my face. This is sort of an obvious issue here.

FAA or any US government agency is an oligarch tool. Seriously, I've worked local and federal level within the government and outside with for profit companies. All that AM radio and persistent tv oligarch pushing media red tape bullshit... FAA all airlines produce their own regulatory program... FAA rubber stamps it. And these airlines often fail following their OWN plan... same with FDA with food manufacturing... currently work in a lab for a beverage company... we make our own regulatory plan, FDA rubber stamps it... and grades us on it. And of course for profit auditors FSS2000 and other "standards" put out by... oligarchs... Banks... same thing. We're a kleptocracy. And most suckers don't even know it. We're more formal in our bribery... if you're a local or regional or national oligarch... just keep asking... and no matter what you'll get what you want. Even if protests of local or regional or national come out... doesn't matter. And you don't have to bribe money... just keep pushing your own narrative. It's free bibery for the oligarchs. It's sort of fucked up. We're such a kleptocracy the oligarchs really don't have to bribe... directly. They just need to have persistent hired thugs and whatever "government" agency will roll over backwards for the oligarchs... a celebrity. WE have big problem with cult of personality in this country. Historically that becomes a horrible thing. Lots of misery to follow. But that destructive idiocy... might require that misery to LEARN how not to develop cult of personality or be prone to go along with it.

They realized they created a turd in a trash can on fire... and they're doing preemptive damage control.

Last 5 or so years has been a scammers paradise.... so many rubes willing to literally donate (to not expect anything back, but maybe get something) to stupidity.... hell there's many just tipping stuff expecting nothing at all back throwing money at people. Scammers paradise.

There was a party? LOL!

We all know iFinex all businesses under Tether and Bitfinex are major scams which have mushroomed into other scams including Binance and Bybit and Derbit etc. And various other non-related scams under USDC with Coinbase. Question becomes... which one folds first... in all my thoughts I always listed terra last... sort of funny it was the first. I've always listed Tether first... then USDC... as the most obvious scam. So maybe it will be circle... and coinbase... then Tether. Then all of crypto gets revealed for no real liquidity... just a Ponzi/Pyramid scam that it always was even since Mt Gox. At some point, the SEC should just require any exchange thing as a broker requiring broker licenses... and any token or centralized blockchain as a security. I mean they are. And SEC can do this on their own... that's what we tax payers pay the clowns in these offices... to protect our financial security be it in bank deposits, CD's, stocks, dealing in the brokers, etc.

Yout hit everything on the nail. 1) First right of refusal is a good policy. 2) Fed Reserve (banking cartel) monetized all the bank debts and we all get over priced housing. Stupidity upon stupidity. 3) Getting rid of public housing competing with private housing development has been a the mistake of many other nations, and they're in a similar boat... US more than other nations with millions literally living in RV's and tents and cars with FAMILIES children. 4) Use our tax dollars not for some oligarch private military to colonize various poor nations in Central and South America and in Asia and Indonesia, but to maybe build, develop roads and utilities. Instead of the bozo the clown method that many cities have adopted: developers are now required to build the roads and water works and sewer works and electrical to specifications to the local utility companies, they then hand the utilities and roads to the respective operating entities for "Free". It's not paid for by the city or municipality or by the private power company or gas company or private water company... it's all paid by the developer now who then has to pass that price of building the roads and utilities onto the buyers. Prior, home builders simply had to build the house allowing developers to build home homes, our taxes over time paid for all those utilities and road services. 5) Free market has failed. You're living thru it. Banks now own the market. Congrats. Government bad is the montra propaganda nonsense. A democratized nation you are the government, you gave that away to the banks and oligarchs. Congrats. 6) The problem without government any intervention, you would still not have enough housing supply... and we'd probably still be in a complete depression. But it was done horribly. Free markets you got what we got... it's fantasy.

Would be funny if the reporter followed up with Mr. Wonderful's, "Where is the money?" with: "Well, he probably mentioned to you're celebrity endorsement paychecks among multitude of others..." Don't think for an instance, Mr. Wonderful put deposits on FTX or his only dingle berry amendable torrent file scams aka crypto, exchange. Only the fools buy play money, hoping to sell it to the bigger dip dong for more real money. The entire affair with crypto has been a failure an abject revelation of oligarchy in this country, such things already violated SEC law as well as FTC law on multiple counts.

Robber baron type plutocratic economies always revert to a feudalistic system. It's the premise to the board game Monopoly. This isn't actually that new phenomena. It's why various laws were enacted to avoid speculative destruction in real-estate such as limiting purchases in a geographical area and time period among a buyer... so that big money from a robber baron or some fund/cartel of big money doesn't come and buy up a bunch of real-estate that eventually becomes a speculative bubble... in boom regions many towns would go bust in favor of other towns that passed restrictions on number of existing units that maybe purchased over a period of time. And requirements to buy more even after expiration of a cool off time frame would including buy one unit, can't buy another for a year or two; then after that period in order to buy another existing unit, you must build one more or two more or three more before you can buy an existing unit again, and then must wait again to buy another existing unit after that for 1 to 2 years. Additionally, many cities and towns were developed with property tax or other grant funding from the county/state/federal government to build roads and utilities; this development wasn't passed on with the sticker price of the lot or the house, rather that was recouped over time via property taxes. So it was affordable pricing to buy the lot and/or house.

They also need to examine unusual options activities... someone was doing a series of odd Put and Call options activity all through Late Summer 2021 and even just recently. The only potential solace on that weirdo that keeps pumping tens of millions on puts or calls... usually calls and placing smaller put options (still several millions) in what looks like a put wall attempt... this worked last fall.... but just recently this big options yollo-er lost big on their call options several millions last week... they had already closed to their puts... a bit too soon I guess. Can't recall the figure on same week expiration options (and that's what makes this stand out as some weirdness going on is that they're always same week expiration with no other options strategy behind it) if I recall it was some 47 million dollars poof... they lost big. Lots of people trading and managing portfolios suspect its Musk... at least one of them or someone connected to them. SEC should investigate. Even if it's not Musk, a broader issue was going on all through 2020 and 2021 during the spring and summer and even early winter... options manipulation by opening lots of calls same week expiration and buying up the underlying (sometimes) which initiates a gamma squeeze... the market makers for these option calls they just wrote suddenly need to cover which adds to the buying of the stock causing the stock price to bounce higher and higher (like a short squeeze). This does require lots of retail traders big and small and big trading desks to have some buying pressure... or this strategy fails hard... as hit has this year so far several times. So they're not so into this type of manipulation... at least not on the upside. Doing it on the downside could work... it causes a reverse gamma squeeze. But Unusual Options Activity volume has been below what it was 2021 and 2020 spring through early winter. SEC is asleep at the wheel.

The biggest concern people have about something other than "capitalism" is what fascism and communism of Europe and Asia became an outright dictatorship or gangster mafia sort of thing... sure they had elections, but the choices didn't exist (kind of like right now), but basic fundamental rights to press and protest were denied. What you're doing is the contrary to those old failed regimes and marking the same problem with capitalism is that it gave birth to these gangsters and dictators and only used the labels of something other than capitalism to get traction. Pretended to be something else, but was only something worse. What you're doing is in the title, Democracy, expanding it to the enterprise system in a form of worker co-ops and hopefully specifically a new type of co-op that is ran by all stake holders: customers, workers, people in the proximity of production, and investors with one vote each only regardless to the amount of shares they may or may not have. To democratize the workplace as we have done so with many governments around the world. So that there is a mechanism for the majority of people who are workers actually get the productivity gains from technological advancements and implementations. So we have fully functioning economic system that benefits everyone, not a few at the expense of everyone else.

I've paid more for coach... than for 542! LOL! I've paid more in long flights renting a Cessna 172 and I'm the pilot flying it... $120ish a buck an hour when engine running. You paid $542 for a private jet... wow. Good deal!

Your point about the fish and fertilizer still stands, but not for the fact nitrogen is an element not a compound. To be clear NO3 or Nitrate is what the plants inevitably need in uptake... so it is a compound made of a single nitrogen. Yet still, NO3 doesn't magical come out of nowhere... you feed the fish food that has the compounds or can develop into the compounds that make NO3 eventually... the fish poop and stuff like Urea COCNH to NH3 and NH4.... You're inputting the feed for the fish that is the fertilizer... it's not a closed system. Nor a looping system. Thus the need on earth to develop sources for fertilizers be it natural compost sources, dung from farm animals, or industrially produced synthetic fertilizers to produce NO3, via NH3 (ammonia) to Ammonium NH4, that in dirt will produce the eventual NO3 that is uptake and used by the plant. And synthetic fertilizers are new... Chemist Fritz Haber discovered the chemical techniques in using the abundant N2 that makes up over 70% of our atmosphere and mix it with H2 and increase pressure and heat that would provide ammonia the useful building blocks of NO3 nitrates. But yeah, you don't get fertilizers manufactured from the fish directly, it's from the feed of the fish. It's an input that's passed down. Not an output from the fish. What the fish to plant people would need to demonstrate is a loop system whereby the fertilizer from the fish goes to the plants back to the fish in a loop... which... the don't. And thus your point remains. But not because nitrogen is an element.

Hope so. Prices are stupid.

Homes shouldn't appreciate. They're in constant decay. Eventually they must be completely rebuilt over a period of time. Even the White House was gutted and rebuilt, only the outside facade was kept during the Truman's presidency. It's like buying a vehicle or boat or airplane. Typically, they don't appreciate. Even collectibles won't appreciate without essentially being rebuilt fully to which you're dumping money back into something that has depreciated. It's a moronic thing to have housing appreciate. As for the dirt, this is also moronic as this sums to poor planning in cities, counties, and states on their ability to appropriately grow these areas. Do a shit job, you get shit prices: Boom bust. Do a decent job, you have stable prices and generally a prosperous economy for everyone. The way cities in the US are being planned and built via developer gravy train was passing the back first to the developer to build the roads, utilities, etc. Then developers passed that to you.... to the buyer. Our collective taxes that are suppose to be used for this collective growth of expanding roads, utilities, etc. just goes to subsidies for some pluto-rat to not pay property taxes on their factory or apartment complex or mini-mall or whatever else; to get subsidies either for the property to grants to build there... they're job creators don't you know! LOL! Job creation of more slave wages that make it difficult or impossible not just to borrow for a home, but just to rent an apartment. Record numbers live now in RV's. Fuck'em. But that lifestyle isn't comfortable. It is a wreck and damage to many people's health mental and physical. And RV's weren't really meant to live in for long periods of times. The area I live in Idaho, from Boise to Pocatello... all the RV lots are full. Overloaded. New one pops up, and already completely full. Our taxes fund the lavish lifestyles of the American version of the Downton Abbey parasites. I mean that's why so much goes to jails and incarcerations of which our nation has the most than any other nation to which you can trust their numbers. Nationally, our country spends more than the next 11 yes ELEVEN of the highest national spenders on military COMBINED. It's a military tyrannical dictatorship. And many are befuddled into some grand worshiping that freak show. Wanna know the conception of the world via the average N. Korean... look no farther than the average American. The elites in our country did a horrific (good) job of turning us into the land of Mordor... in this case where the plut-rats lie. And still a sufficient amount of Americans gobble that lie up. We are reaching that point though, the lie is becoming even absurd to the kool-aid drinkers. When the cult members abandon ship, perhaps change will happen. Maybe. Who knows. Maybe they'll make they're own horror story into reality. I mean the brainwashing is kernal files of the brain of stupidity: mystical magical words like capitalism real capitalism shoe straps and let markets be free as the birdy... and then there's a fascist element of race baiting. So it could get better or worse! Let's hope it gets better.
