Running it like a true Trump business… :blessed:





Right before it files chapter 11:blessed:



No bonuses for ordinary workers but somehow upper management still golden parachutes out.:blessed:
The greatest transfer of wealth from the working class to the wealthy happened during Trump last time and these dumb motherfukkers said “we want to give them more!”

Oh okay. I’m open to learning. Tell me what I’m not understanding.

For countries, debt is not meant to be paid off.

In fact nothing would be more irresponsible for a leader than trying to pay off national debt in a meaningful way.

A country is not like a person. But if it was, the same people who complain about the national debt would tell you a person behaving in the same way is clever:

Have you never heard that "rich people never spend their own money"?

The key is the ratio of the debt to the ability to pay this debt down, with one measurement of the latter being GDP.

Someone who makes a ton of money who chooses to take out mortgages and credit card debt in order to have greater access to funds today might be in some trouble if they can't sort things out before they retire/die.

But countries don't retire or die, unless they completely fall behind the other countries. And in fact, the best way to fall behind in GDP is to not invest as much as possible today in the country. Which is what the national debt allows each country to do.

As a marsupial with a business background, I know what these words mean :francis:

  • More layoffs in the tech field as AI will kick into full throttle
  • Blue collared jobs are slowly becoming a thing of the past
  • The focus on bringing bitcoin and digital currency to the frontline
  • Cutting off the rustbelt to further drive the country into a dystopia
  • A shift into the economy focusing on dudebro crypto brahs (think wallstreet on fentanyl)
Basically, the progression the country is not ready for Those dumb ass voters don't know that we are all going to be sitting on the couch, especially white folks. Now if you can data mine, know the ins and outs of the crypto game, and embracing big tech...my brothers yall are going to eat good.

But for the common Joe blow that still can't logged into their Facebook...

THEY ARE fukkED!!!

I wish he would go into detail exactly what he means, but in response to @Damnshow SOMETHING has to be done about this governments stupid spending.

It’s funny they say US is the wealthiest country around! When it has more trillions of debt, on pace of never being able to pay it off.

I hope for transparency from Trump and his people, stop with this ominous stuff.

You will get that transparency and detailed plen from trump right after he release his healthcare plan which is coming in two weeks:mjgrin:

I was talking about the election with my Senior class, (I teach SPED Social Studies at an alternative high school) and we had a member of the Evaluation Team sit in with us. I kept it neutral, open ended questions no leading questions. My best student, girl named Dajae lit into Trump, calling him racist, a scammer, saying that people were dumb to vote for him. Evaluation Team white lady says, "I don't think I've ever heard him say anything racist."

I then went over his racist social media posts, Mexicans are rapists, immigrants eating cats and dogs. Lady then tried to deflect by saying that was someone in his campaign that made him say those things. I replied by stating that he is at the head of the campaign and no one can put words in his mouth without his approval. Lady then brought up how he hangs out with Black rappers and athletes. I then pointed out that plenty of people like Black culture and celebrities without necessarily caring for Black people. She then said that she got tired of paying 4.50 for a bag of chips.
Cherry on top, Puerto Rican male told me that Trump was gonna send out more stimulus checks "because people are struggling." Apparently, he heard this from his parents and since he's now 18, he can receive astimulus check well to help out his family. Just gotta let the leopards feast man. It is what it is at this point. When things go to hell because of his tariffs and cutting 2 trillion from the budget, people will realize they fukked up and will be looking for the off ramp to MAGA.

Great post. But let me tell you what will happen. Mark this down.

Trump will tank the economy with sanctions, tariffs etc, then blame it on being done to fix Bidens economy, then he will send out stimulus checks to everyone, putting the country in more debt, but creating more blind loyalty from supporters.
