perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

i'd prefer our financial systems not to collapse but silver lining is that trump doesn't have his one legit talking point for a while.

do not look at your 401ks for a while. this shtein ain't stopping soon.

Was watching the Dow sit down around 400-600 all day. Go back and check 20 minutes ago and it's down 1100. Sheesh

Can't imagine why the markets think this admin is too incompetent to handle a pandemic

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

from a political stand point i think the stock market thing is largely meaningless...his cranial lump base doesnt care about the stock market and the rich folk know it will come back and when it does they need their tax cuts

that said where it really matters and maybe even with his base a little is when democrats can run campaign ads about how the incompetence of the admin is going to get your children killed...this depends on two things tho...

dems not being Hoydas and running the right ads - 50% chance

his base loving their childrens health more than they love trump - 25% chance

"Americans are, of course, the most thoroughly and passively indoctrinated people on earth. They know next to nothing as a rule about their own history, or the histories of other nations, or the histories of the various social movements that have risen and fallen in the past, and they certainly know little or nothing of the complexities and contradictions comprised within words like "socialism" and "capitalism." Chiefly, what they have been trained not to know or even suspect is that, in many ways, they enjoy far fewer freedoms, and suffer under a more intrusive centralized state, than do the citizens of countries with more vigorous social-democratic institutions. This is at once the most comic and most tragic aspect of the excitable alarm that talk of social democracy or democratic socialism can elicit on these shores. An enormous number of Americans have been persuaded to believe that they are freer in the abstract than, say, Germans or Danes precisely because they possess far fewer freedoms in the concrete. They are far more vulnerable to medical and financial crisis, far more likely to receive inadequate health coverage, far more prone to irreparable insolvency, far more unprotected against predatory creditors, far more subject to income inequality, and so forth, while effectively paying more in tax (when one figures in federal, state, local, and sales taxes, and then compounds those by all the expenditures that in this country, as almost nowhere else, their taxes do not cover). One might think that a people who once rebelled against the mightiest empire on earth on the principle of no taxation without representation would not meekly accept taxation without adequate government services. But we accept what we have become used to, I suppose. Even so, one has to ask, what state apparatus in the "free" world could be more powerful and tyrannical than the one that taxes its citizens while providing no substantial civic benefits in return, solely in order to enrich a piratically overinflated military-industrial complex and to ease the tax burdens of the immensely wealthy?"
