  1. I was just going from memory. The point was that gold hit a low back in 2000 that hadn't been seen since the 1970's, and using that as a starting point for performance is a cherry-pick that's misleading. As I explained, gold is worth almost 20% less today than it was in 2011, while the S&P has quadrupled in that time. As I said, Warren Buffet is a value stock-picker. He looks for stocks that are profitable, and priced well. Right now, the market is priced at the top (too high). It is difficult for Berkshire Hathaway to find value in that environment, so they let money sit in bonds or cash and wait for the market to correct downward amidst a (likely) light/moderate/short recession. At that point, he'll load back up on the cheap. He's not predicting doom for the economy.
  2. Nobody has to make anything up. We can just look at your post count and how you spend your time, with so much of it devoted to angry emoji-spamming rants like the post above. 🙃
  3. Why? Surely if it's okay for the female-to-male trans going to the male bathroom, it could work the other way as well? What do you think would happen if this person went into the female bathroom? I suspect nothing, and that nobody would realize this person was born a man.
  4. All day, every day, alone and unemployed at your computer, seething and ranting at anyone who disagrees with you. 🫡
  5. This is paid Russian troll farmer, and he's been caught posting the same garbage on Aussie forums etc. He's not worth debating. Just mock him, because he sucks at it, just like the Russians do at most things they try.
  6. Yes, it was too long, and no, I didn't read it. That's funny shit though - that a two-sentence jab can set you off on a deranged ~1200 word rant that you realized after you'd changed your underwear that nobody was going to read. It's no big deal though. As we know, you have nothing else going on in your life, so that time was as well-spent for you as anything else you might have been doing. 😉
  7. I'm very comfortable with not having the respect of the tinfoil hats. Your contribution to this forum is laughter at your expense. We thank you for your service. 🤡
  8. They just roll it over or issue new debt to cover it. They can, and they will. All true, and these are drags on the economy, but interest rates are going to go down, and American institutions own most of the debt. Social security, for example, own almost half of it. I suspect you won't even notice it. Individual company layoffs are irrelevant compared to the aggregate data, which BLS posts. For every one of those layoffs, there were new hires and more. We've already discussed this, and it's a nothingburger, mostly pushed by pariah states like Russia, North Korea and Iran. China and India aren't interested in a BRICS currency, so the project is dead in the water. As for gold prices, the only reason that number looks so good is because in the year 2000, gold prices plummeted to their lowest levels in 60 years. Pick a different starting point, and the S&P outperforms gold easily. Since 2011, gold has lost 15% of its value. In the same time, the S&P 500 grew +400%.
  9. Talk to the lawyer(s) handling the transaction. This is one of the last places you should be asking.
  10. Did I ever claim I don't copy/paste your post count here? There have been plenty of petulant fools like you to grace this forum over the years, but there has definitely never been anyone with less going on in his life than you. Your post count proves it. 🙃
  11. Oh okay. Sorry. My answer is that...I'm not? 🙃 This is what broken look like: 1 year, 14,200 posts. That's no job, no prospects, no family, and no hobbies kind of broken. No, they weren't. Supreme Court Justice Mosley, in his ruling against the Liberal government: "I considered the events that occurred in Ottawa and other locations in January and February 2022 went beyond legitimate protest and reflected an unacceptable breakdown of public order". That doesn't mean the Emergencies Act was warranted. Justice Mosley's judgement against the Liberals wasn't that the protestors should have been left alone, it was that it wasn't a national emergency and there were other tools to get rid of them.
  12. Backtracking against what? A retarded strawman that you constructed for yourself to argue against? 🤣 I'm not. I'm just aware of pornblocker software, and that responsible, caring and attentive parents can keep their kids away from porn without the government getting involved...somehow. Post of the year here: 🤣🤣
  13. Yes, because child pornography = images/video with children in it. PP's position is to try to (somehow) limit children's access online to pornography. There's a difference there, but I guess you're too stupid to see it.
  14. This was the question you asked: You didn't like the answer, because it demonstrated (again) you were cluelessly bullshitting, so now you're doing your regular dumdum routine. 🤣
  15. 😭😭😭 Unfortunately for you, incoherent rage, ignorance and intolerance don't get you very far in terms of "morality". I'm pretty comfortable with where I stand vs you in that regard.
  16. and here you are, battling it out with an apparent bot, but still somehow managing to look stupid doing it. Even the "bot" can recognize when you've made up something to argue against...with yourself. I'm not sure what would be more embarrassing...that this is a bot and that it was still able to point out your foolishness, or that it's not a bot and you've spent the last few days trying to convince everyone it is. 🤣
  17. It's the only topic-relevant question you asked. What you're referring to is just a wimpy insult, disguised with a question mark. 🥱 I can do that too: Is it utter loneliness or complete failure that you drive you to spend all day, every day, battling on the internet? Is it both? Now what do you have to say about Justice Mosely's assessment of the trucker protest? Anything?
  18. For someone who's so focused on it, you don't seen to have anything concrete to say about it. The BTFP was a short-term emergency measure. I suspect when it ends, things will proceed much as they did before it was implemented. What do you think will happen?
  19. You need to work more subtly, comrade. It doesn't work if you're this obvious about who pays you. 🤡
