Which is still better than what was happening before. I just watched a vid on X of some fedex jeet trucker getting his truck stuck on the side of the highway. If jeets wanna kill their company, their free to do so, but now it will cost them 100k to import a fucking road hazard.

It's better than before but we're literally being robbed with that contract and Americans replaced at the cost to the taxpayer so I'm not going to concede on it. The feds should use the contract to strong arm FedEx.

But yet with every midterms prediction since 2018 the media was right.

1. Grocery prices have demonstrably increased and despite promises by the current administration they haven't reached 2019 levels. Wages have not adjusted across the board to coincide with these prices. Groceries are not the only metric but rather a baseline that demonstrates without discrepancy that costs are increasing. Whatever populist rhetoric is leaving the current administration's figureheads' collective mouths is just hot air until there is a healthier relationship between average wages and prices across the board.

2. AI is functionally just Nvidia and various companies pumping money into each other. This is what's known as a bubble. The global economy is balancing on the shoulders of Nvidia and I don't believe you're so stupid I have to explain why that is a bad thing. Our current situation owes itself to Reagan-style favoritism toward corporate interests and putting a gun to the temple of the middle-class.

3. Student loans are going to cripple two (maybe three) generations of the youngest American demographics. The fact that this was allowed to happen is insane. If I was elected Fuhrer tomorrow I would have an investigation conducted and begin publicly executing bankers and academics by the end of 2026. This is the single biggest punch in the gut the American population has ever endured and it was the result of a hydra comprised of federal government, banks and universities.

4. The stock market is rapidly becoming the only way to grow money. This is because it's the only immediately-accessible investment opportunity of average Americans. If your average negro can't work at the airport and use his wages to put a little money into a blue chip stock every two weeks then your economy is a fucking failure.

To respond to this in a succinct manner on each subject:
1. Grocery prices as an issue I believe tie into the other more chronic plight of stabilizing real wages to keep up with inflation. The nation has been afflicted with this problem since the 1970s. If you wanted to address groceries in particular someone could try to put a law or executive order in effect that would stop "price-gouging" (that's what Kamala Harris advocated for in the 2024 election) which would have its own consequences. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that real average hourly earnings for all employees increased 0.8 percent from November 2024 to November 2025 which is good if true, even if it isn't much of an increase.

2. As stated before I agree that AI is in a bubble and people are gambling on its future success. If the money isn't there its FUBAR, if it is then it's fine. With that in mind, I can't say to what extent how bad it would be if it crashed and burned on an industry-wide level.

3. If the student loan bubble popped it would be bad but cynically it's something that Republicans can benefit from. Reporting on the subject I read said that first-generation students, minorities and low-income families who were lured into debt traps under the illusion of upward mobility would suffer the most.

Here is something to keep in mind on the matter:



4. Investing in stocks is more or less a "White" thing to do in America, about 70% of White adults own stocks compared with 53% of Black adults and just 38% of Hispanic adults. The median value of total stock holdings among White families in 2022 was $67,800, compared with $24,500 for Hispanic families and $16,500 for Black families.

As far as I'm aware there nothing legally stopping any American citizen from investing money into them if they so wish. They just don't, though in quite a few cases I imagine this is simply because they don't have any additional income (outside of living expenses) to invest which is a whole other issue entirely.

Man in Columbus, OH, talks about deliveries he makes to homes that appear to be illegal immigrants. “There’s fifteen f*cking people standing around in either very traditional dress for whatever their culture is and I saw a lot of prayer outfits … and they looked f*cking terrified … they’re all collecting together as a family so they know where each other is and who’s safe.” TT: camwilliamsonofficial44

How much you wanna bet all these companies are going to demand extra money from the government to pay their $100,000 H1-B fees instead of hiring American workers?

 

[FunkTism]

No one has the BRAVERY to talk about this so I guess I will:

Trump literally killed Charlie Kirk using Egyptian planes, underground tunnels, holograms, the avengers, lasers, etc... and Ericka knew, look at my out-of-context still images. What is a happy widow? Putting on a brave face, buckling down to continue your husband's work WTF? What is the strength in Christ? What is living your faith? That whole forgiveness this...yeah, what an act....fuck....she knew all along.....wo..woah....We have got to destroy the biggest rightwing platform in America that won Trump his last election, recruits new/young people giving them tools to argue against and protect themselves from the radical left's abuses of power, holds elected Republican officials accountable more than the RNC, allows for debate and evolution of right-wing views unfettered (like criticism of Israel), and more.

Yeah, that organization NEEDS TO GO YESTERDAY!!!!

My evidence....it just...it smells bad, got bad vibes ya know, why are you asking me for evidence? You working with THEM?!? Yeah you are, I am not doing this for clicks and attention during the age of True Crime, adoring investigation podcasts, and people dipping their toes into conspiracy after COVID. And I am certainly not taking advantage of PTSD from seeing a hero/young man getting his neck blown off and captured across social media and shoved in your faces. I am not trying to fuck up your mind but....you...you just have to watch this GORE video again and again and again to just...sigh...get it.

Look I love Chalie and all he stands for which is why...sigh...I want to take all that energy generated by his assassination from Lizard people down the lane, and channel that away from productive activism, punishing enemies, creating a chilling effect on the left, and a realignment of people in the middle towards the right to...well...a better outlet, my outlet. Where we create new theories each day, mock his friends, wife, organization and have the amazing side effect of shipioning energy towards screaming matches about evidence I will never release, (like the flight logs) that other sources will have to scrounge around to disprove me before I've already hopped onto a new theory saying that other one is a mischaracterization from THEM.

You like Cold cases? You like True Crime? Need a complex storyline to pay attention to? Well, come on down and watch as I continue to dive headfirst into an empty concrete pool of theories before I lose all my money in a court case against the French PM. (WHY DOESN'T MY FRIEND TRUMP HELP ME?!? It must be because I'm just TOOOO Right about THEM! Whoever THEM IS!).

sigh....he so would have left his wife and children to be with me don't you think?

The idea that your birth was an accident or you "Could have been born Indian" presumes that there is some kind of "Well of Souls" from which we are picked randomly before birth. This is a religious belief.

They just don't, though in quite a few cases I imagine this is simply because they don't have any additional income (outside of living expenses) to invest which is a whole other issue entirely.

"Under capitalism, workers can buy the means of production."
That being said, a lot of it is what you said about not having additional money to spend investing, but there is also a lack of education out there about how it works, and many people consider it too risky. They don't want to lose all their money in a crash, and they don't really understand that if they just "save" money, it goes away due to inflation. If number doesn't go down, they don't lose anything.

This is where that thing shows up, that thing where I’ve made like ten lecture posts about why you need manufacturing/resource extraction/agriculture, and why stock market growth does not in reality offset trade deficits

wealth creation means performing value added processes. But like really value added, warehousing for a drop shipper doesn’t count

Who is "we"? Brigham Young was neutral during the civil war.

Also 60 minutes pulled an Interview about CECOT

Yes, here are thirty minutes of statistics in a child-friendly format. You won't watch it and I'm wasting my time however.

Your source is a Drew Gooden video?

What's the matter, were Chadtronic and Peanutbuttergamer too intellectual for you to follow?

Hold on, I think I can find a video by Mista gg that refutes all of these video's points.

 

[The Last Stand]

I'll be the first to say this: if white civilization crumbles, the rest of the world would soon follow. Think about how many contributions and luxuries European cultures have provided to the world. I don't want that to happen; I'm happy with the customs and privileges I am allowed.

As we all know, something is true or false based on who is saying it.

Some people simply won't put money into stocks due to the financial risks even if you made doing so as convenient as possible and educated the whole populace on how it works. Personally I'm indifferent on the problem after looking into it even if it is a financial issue for some. As stated before, statistics show that even messing with the stock market is a predominately "White" thing to do. Working to increase the median value of total stock holdings amongst Hispanic and Black families in the United States may not come with inherently positive effects when all is said and done.

Word on the street is they're just hiring them in Canada and transferring them over to the US for a visa, completely bypassing the 100k fee. I haven't looked into this yet, but some of you may recall I said the 100k was probably a pony show for the base and likely had an easy workaround (on purpose) that wasn't being stated.

General comment on economics, since some Maga retards think Donboi is bringing prices down or cause immigrants have been deported...

What you are witnessing is intense global depressionary forces. The financial system barely made it through Sept, a critical time, exactly like Sept 2019 when the repo market failed. This is why you see oil falling with gold and silver surging (among other signs). Some of us knew this was coming and invested accordingly.

Some countries that are already semi isolated will stagger on about the same, but places like Africa or South America and Israel who depend heavily on gibmedats (and income from illegal drugs) from Europe and America will absolutely fall apart.

 

[Sekirodiealot]

He's not going to do any time. Once he's out of office he's out of their hair, and anything they try to do to him afterwards is only going to martyr him, energize his base and make him a king maker.
He'll be endorsing people from a jail cell and those people will win in a landslide.
Look what happened the last time they tried to use the law against him. It ended up being the first time Republicans won the popular vote in 2 decades.

You have a point. It's just that i get the sneaking suspicion the left would try everything in their power to go after him again like despite him not being able to run again. I don't expect anything to happen to him.
