Maybe it is..maybe it isnt. Not a small sample size though. **** happens. Democratic presidents have frequently had to dig the economy out of holes dug under Republicans
Economic policies take 4-5 years to truly take affect. Nothing happens magically.
Hey im being open minded here. Im legitimately interested in reviewing that data. But no, its not something im gonna go research now
Eh, doesn't really work that way.Economic policies take 4-5 years to truly take affect. Nothing happens magically.
That’s why bush 41 doesn’t get enough credit for fixing or trying to fix Reagan policies plus dealing. With end of the Cold War.
On the opposite side. Did jimmy Carter massive inflation problem. Who was to blame for that? I don’t think Carter deserves all the blame. It was side consequences of the Nixon years.
U.S. Inflation Rate by President: From Truman to Biden
Here are the average year-over-year inflation rates by president, and the events and economic conditions that contributed to them.www.investopedia.com
It’s at this point, when you guys are all over the place, the national debt is a crisis/or no, it’s so big it’s an abstract concept gimme my tax cut, confusion about basic economic facts when different parties are in power, to the penultimate, let’s throw away our current economic system and invest our money into what’s essentially an investment in Cabbage Patch Kids, it’s hard to take conservative/Republican/MAGA arguments seriously anymore.
Yea.
Especially since even educated, board certified physicians believe a lot of this stuff. Imagine, the national debt is apparently the greatest crisis of our generation according to Republicans, maybe they believed that for DECADES, and in the span of months, do a complete reversal and tell us to invest in Beanie Babies. Hell, they will change their entire worldview, all their precious libertarian, “small government” ideals TOMORROW if Trump tells them to. It’s insane.
Huh? You clearly dont understand what bitcoin is. Its the closest thing to God’s money. What an ignorant statement. As much as I disagree with some of your politics, I urge you to educate yourself on what bitcoin is and get on the train before you’re ****ed. Understand that I 100% recognize the severity of the coming economic crisis. Thats exactly WHY Im buying butcoin. You just dont get it, because you’re not educated enough on it and you’re refusing to see the forest level view buddy.
Dude get a grip. This is the cycle of all of history. Major crises—>major catalyzing events—>new world order. Rinse and repeat. Thats whats happening, whether you (or I) like it or not.
I read it, Demon Haunted World. Eerily prescient. Just look at @TeslaCoil. Instead of intellectual honesty, he resorts to the “this global cataclysmic stuff happens all the time”, or just ASSERTS that crypto is “God’s money”. It’s insanity on a mass scale, and even some of the most educated people in our society will make these claims without batting an eye.
@TeslaCoil going to out on a limb and surmise you haven’t read this book chief
BTW, I have several crypto currencies as a speculative side bet, and I’ve had a basket of currencies for years as an early adopter. I don’t know you, but I’m pretty up to speed on crypto, including its history and how it works (to the best of my ability). If you think you are talking to someone clueless about crypto, you would be wrong.
No. It IS Gods money. It has the properties of Gods money. If you understood it, Im sure a halfway intelligent person such as yourself would see it too. Its the first ever money that operates on unconditional consensus. Thats what makes it Gods money. It cant be debased like dollars. In fact as dollars get debased its value will only appreciate. But ok. Dont pull your head out of the hole. 🤷🏻♂️ your loss. Your unhinged ranting makes you seem pretty clouded. What is it you’d like the right OR the left to do about the national deficit? There are only a few choices… inflate it away or go to war over it, or try by some miracle to balance things and pay it off? Which one of those do you think is most likely from any party? In my opinion its- inflate it away. Thats exactly whats been happening for presidency after presidency no matter who is at the helm. And thats what will continue to happen. Theres only one way out and thats to use a sovereign form of money. Gold. Bitcoin.
I dunno. Sometimes it best to go big. New grad 2023 has close to 1 million in bitcoin I thought he was crazy when I first met him. Like he’s all in with bitcoin.
@TeslaCoil Man, keep going. You are making my case for me, and you don’t even realize it. Educate all of us some more on gold and crypto, at least a couple of more paragraphs so I can finally understand your wisdom. Thanks in advance!
At what price will people actually do their research and educate themselves on money to the point that they truly understand what time old monetary problems bitcoin solves? Why its the best and purest form of money ever created? Incorruptible. Non-sovereign. Consensus. Portable. Durable. Fungible. Divisible. Un-censorable. Cross-border. Scarce. Etc
The case that what? Im not facing the facts that we’re headed for an economic crisis due to off-the-chain debt? Due to hyperinflation? Etc what exactly? I recognize all of that quite well. What is your proposed solution? Thats what Im asking you point blank.
No sir, unlike you, I don’t have all the answers. I lack your certainty. Sure, I have ideas and opinions, but they are based on trusted experts, not silly physicians who think they know everything. What I am pointing out for everyone to see is that the problem is that you ARE SO CERTAIN of your beliefs, it doesn’t even occur to you to question them. Being certain about things you know little about is likely the MOST important virtue for folks like you. Instead of the discomfort of NOT knowing it all, you relieve that anxiety by not only expressing profound certainty of your own ignorance, but you make it your mission in life to make sure everyone else believes in your nonsense. People are waking up to this sickness. I hope you will one day too.
Worst. Advice. Ever
“This dude was so freaking weird. Definitely Asperger”. @aneftp , haha, I am laughing out loud. Take a look in the mirror. I’m at the point of wondering, is this all just an act? I don’t think it is. Bizarre.
Im certain that you know how to present problems and point fingers while refusing to produce any opinion as to a solution. I am not certain. Im just hedged. Hedged as best as anyone can be and thats my whole point. Is that you should try to hedge as best as you can, because you cant control the national deficit or the world order etc. If you keep all your investments in dollar based assets you’re gonna lose your ass. How does that make me ignorant? 😂
Nah. I’m very normal. Tons of friends. Family. I am very social. Go out. Hang out with normal non medical friends. I have a life outside of work. Asperger people don’t.
NFTs...
It is an incredibly succinct way to admit that you lack any and all form of introspection. Like a bot account that was instructed to behave in a way that always showcased and reflected the qualities of a pure narcissist.
See, this is very typical for “thinkers” like you. First you say about bitcoin, “As in you should buy some. A lot.” In other words, do exactly as you state, buy A LOT of beanie babies. Now that you’ve been pantsed and shown for the intellectual lightweight that you are, all of a sudden, you’ve gone soft. Maybe not so sure anymore, maybe now I’ve changed my mind in literally five minutes to “all in, the sky is falling” to “well, the sky is still falling, but it’s prudent to “hedge” in the face of such uncertainty!”. Haha. It’s exactly what I just stated, and you are literally parroting my words. Don’t you realize what you are doing?
I know quite a few people like you, have families, are social (or so you think). Plenty of neurodivergent people have normal social lives, again, your ignorance knows no bounds. And everyone knows that you are missing a chip, they just don’t tell you, because they are polite and probably feel sorry for you. I am telling you.
Anyone who has to self report as “normal”, is, according to latest research, most definitely not. Many scientists concur in this observation.
I’m telling you man. @aneftp recently bragged that he keeps his AC at 82 degrees during the Florida summer. Yeah, the guy clearing tons of money doing locums ( according to him) to save a few hundred a month. It just so happens that with modern materials, server rooms can achieve reasonable efficiency at 82 degrees. I contend that @aneftp is an experimental LLM being tested by DARPA for use in psychological operations. It could be true. Based on his statements, I almost hope it is.
No sorry. I may not have a crystal ball but Ive never been more sure about anything in my life. Bitcoin is gods money. And therefore I stack a lot of it. Its probably 20% of my portfolio. But I also live a financially conservative life in preparation for the incoming doomsday you keep referring to. Which I'm also quite sure is coming. Talking to you, however, is like talking to a wall. You are so blinded by your hate for conservatives that you’re completely unwilling to open your mind. Bitcoin is not “beanie babies”. Can you send beanie babies to your cousin who is starving in Ukraine with the push of a button? Can you put a whole bunch of “beanie babies” into a duffel bag when this country has been pillaged into oblivion and you have to flee to save your family? No. When bitcoin is worth a million a piece will you then at least open up to what it actually is and does? Only an ignoramus likens bitcoin to something like tulips and beanie babies. You as a physician (if you are indeed a physician) should be able to amass at least one whole coin, and that would be my absolute recommendation. But hey if you want to go down with the ship, see ya!
There are other ways to hedge inflation, to prepare for an expected economic collapse or financial (dollar) crisis.
Those companies make money buying from people below spot and selling to people above spot. It doesn't matter what the spot price is, if it goes up, or if it goes down.
I valued certain aspects of my financial resources.
Dude. I refute most of the stuff you say and you are just the wall you claim others are. If I’m wrong. I’d admit it. Unlike most of you on this board.
If the financial system collapsed...bitcoin will not be used as a transactional currency.
Nope. Sorry to tell you. I live on planet earth. You live on planet numtacos. Whatever world you think you live in. It sure as heck ain’t this planet.
Wait...
If financial system collapses. Bitcoin survives.
Admit it. You believe in fibromyalgia.
Ok 1) You dont know what you’re saying. I wasnt born yesterday. I know there are other ways to prepare, and thats why Im diversified. But yes, after reading multiple books about bitcoin and taking a college level course on it, Im convinced its the BEST way to hedge against inflation. Along with gold. Real estate to a degree, yes, until the crisis spills over into that market. Which will also happen eventually. Personally I think its not smart at all for anyone not to have any bitcoin exposure at this point. But okay. Do you.
If its truly the end of the world then, nothing matters anymore. I dont think it’ll get that far unless we really annihilate the world in nuclear fire. Im more hopeful than that.
Its far too cumbersome to use, costs money to use it requires infrastructure to use it (internet), the value fluctuates way too much, the vast majority of businesses dont accept it and wont pay their employees with it, and there isn't enough of it
So fibromyalgia isnt real then? I thought you said it was 70% fake and 30% real? So if i am taking a medical history, should i ask if they are lib or maga?
Do you see tax free havens like Principality of Monaco as final destination of crypto currencies since they don’t impose any personal income taxes
Thats another reason it wont be used as a currency.
