Looks like the left got the narrative that talking about the price of eggs doesn't work, so they decided to show their retarded lack of understanding basic economics for a change with predictable results, lmfao
Stick to a-logging a 60 year old bald coomer or a retarded African autist maybe, leave the thinking to adults
New video dropped by OMG. James Welch is caught on camera "telling researchers to Change 'Race' to Ancestry," in an alleged attempt to circumvent internal, algorithmic filtering of research papers. These people really have gone to war with the US Government, isn't there a word for when the government starts to fight itself? It's like a governmental/political fratricide.

I still can't believe these retards just openly talk about this shit at a bar or a restaurant, to completely random people. You would think they would wise up after X amount of O'Keefe exposes.
 
Stock also has a value beyond just the monetary, and that is because owning shares of a company give you voting power and the ability to speak at board meetings.
in theory, yes. in practice, the vast majority of stock ownership is held by people with high wealth, and investment corporations whose only job is to invest in the big safe stocks such as nvidia and amazon. those things aren't going to allow you, random person, to speak at the board meeting, and they certainly won't have any effect on how nvidia does business. it isn't the random retail investor who gains much actual value in a large corporation's stocks. you only really gain that privilege with smaller companies, though i'm sure there are many email votes for plenty of stocks.

i was also not really the one who put forth that argument, that was someone yesterday who claimed that every commodity is 'just monetary', which is insane. when i'm talking about physical goods, i mean that they can have a direct, physical impact on the world around you, and where you are physically located can actually change how those goods are valued. if you're in the middle of rural america, ammo has low monetary value but high value for shootin' with your buds. if you're in the middle of a warzone, ammo has a high monetary value because it's needed to fight the war and a high usefulness value because it's needed to shoot the bad guys. you can't change how valuable your stock is by moving locations, only by selling the stock and buying another one, or potentially by affecting how the company runs to increase its value, but that is a far more abstract 'action' than firing a gun or eating a piece of food.

thank you for taking the time to talk to me like a normal person, this is a much more pleasant discussion.
 
A surprising amount of cheap clothing manufacturing has moved from China to SEA (South East Asia) and Bangladesh. China is having trouble finding enough cheap labor for their sweatshop sewing machines. I'm not sure why India isn't picking it up, but Bangladesh is the cheapest factory floor for large amounts of horrid shit-tier clothing.

Thailand has picked up a lot of mainstream clothing manufacturing, of decent-enough quality, especially bras and underwear for some reason. Cambodia is gaining steam, and I've heard Laos is next. I still haven't seen any clothes labeled Vietnam.
I used to see clothes from Vietnam but not anymore. Also lol these tariffs are going to (hopefully) kill fast fashion and I'm all here for it.
 
you're crying about a US ship getting attacked 58 years ago
a jew complaining about people talking about stuff that happened 50+ years ago. lol

before you drag me into your slap fight just know my position is the jews are preferable to the literal animals that are Muslims but i don't trust the jews one bit and the whole world would probably be better off if we glassed the entire middle east.
 
It has never been illegal for lawmakers to trade stocks to my knowledge, although I agree it should be the law.
i had actually mixed up what the STOCK act did, that was my bad. pelosi still kept doing her best to skirt it because she just had to squeeze as much money as possible. it IS illegal for them to use information they learn or create as congresspeople for stock trading, which i feel like would be impossible to implement effectively.

Hook up culture self selects for blathering retards who have been told they need to talk up their own value to get the girl to sleep with them.

If they think the girl is a lefty, they'll brag about what they've done to screw over Fuhrer Drumpf and a woman who knows what she's doing can play them like a fiddle to spill the beans on everything.

Also, to play devil's advocate for the men on dating apps, we don't see how many first dates it takes for an OMG undercover journalist to successfully hook the over sharing retards. We only see the successes.

For all we know, the over sharer's could be way less common than we think.

These guys are so bad at separating their work and personal lives. It's unreal.

"Lemme just talk candidly in public about how we're going to be traitorous snakes."

They're used to getting away with it. Far as they're concerned, being treacherous snakes is their job. Plus, their social and financial standing depend on their in-grouping, how "with it" they are. They don't separate the two because this shit is their whole lives.
 
"Trump will make everyone poorer and people will no longer be able to afford luxury items" isn't the win you think it is.
Nobody said that, you just don't understand how commerce and markets work.
i urge you and your assfaggot friend not to be so incapable of using thread search. here is literally him saying that americans will be poorer and no longer able to afford luxury items. no mention at all of other countries, no mention at all of other tariffs. if you both meant other countries would also be suffering, why didn't you say so? come on, bud, i need an answer for this. you guys have constantly dodged every point i've made with no actual point to make yourself. you have no retort to the fact that this is only affecting rich faggots, and that even a 35% increase on a 3 dollar gallon of milk only makes that gallon of milk 4.05.

if you are actually going to go completely destitute because of a short term increase of this small an amount on daily necessities, you are well WELL below the poverty line, and already qualify for multiple forms of welfare. what is the goal you're trying to reach here? you can't even keep the statements people make straight. i'm also not going to argue with you anymore on this shit, because you could not understand this any less if you had a degree in faggotry from the university of retardation.
