What Joe Biden just did is not easy. RBG couldn’t do it. Feinstein couldn’t do it. And their refusals made the country worse. This is a historic act of humility.   His presidency has b

I will say that the consumers are partially to blame as well. Quit paying outrageous prices at Moody Center for both tickets and also concessions. You don’t have to do that shit. But people keep doing it.

Yeah, that's the craziest thing about this, people bitch and bitch about prices, but don't seem to alter their spending behavior.

No one finds it concerning that Target is having to lower prices because their middle class target shoppers are now shopping at Walmart?

I think a lot of people who are doing fine are burying their heads in the sand on this. Then again, go to any strip center on a weeknight and people are still eating out. The line at Chickfila or Raising Canes is always long. Why is a Coke at the Alamo Drafthouse now $8? It used to be $4 or $5. The margins are pretty tight right now.

I feel like Charles deMar lately.  Particularly since it took me 7 years to finish high school.  But the street value of this mountain, Laine!  

To TwiceHorn's point though...the people complaining don't understand that corporate price changes to drive revenue/stock buybacks coming out of (granted, legit) losses during Covid and a failure on many consumer's part to readjust their spending patterns.  Are both larger levers on pricing that just inflation/Fed policy.  

But if we don't copyright/trademark an "Oakley Edition" Ford F-250 by the end of this model year, despite this grueling economy, and sell them at the border...we're as fucking stupid as they are.  I mean, c'mon the fucking window stickers already exist.  We add on a little phone holder deal for their video rants that is co-sponsored by Truth Social.  We could have a suite and all tailgate paid for within just a few weeks.

Fast food lunch cost the same as a lunch buffet today. Since I am an optimist, with a great ass, I’ll assume you fat fucking idiots are addicted to preservatives and need help. A Granny Smith apple, navel orange, and one banana cost me less than 1.50 for my lunch today. In California. Where I ran 3 miles along the shoreline. Because none of you are me, and rich, beautiful Viking with long red hair- I pity all of you.

Also gold hit an all time high and that’s the second coin, the only physical one you can touch, that hit an all time high during his “hostile” presidency.

The word touch made me end this edging session. Congrats if you made it this far.

Lets Go Brandon.

There is a school of thought that current interest rates are not too high. If they were too restrictive, people would stop spending so damn much, but the consumer doesn’t seem to be slowing down. Of course, it’s a bit more complicated and nuanced than that. Credit card debt is up. The last retail sales report was lower than expected. Blah blah. The answer is always “we’ll see”.

If you want to ask me/or make assumptions about my salary, please bring it to F250s sugar babies thread. Much more on topic given the divorced dad energy salary talk gives off.

I have zero interest in knowing how much you make or anyone else.

I’ve been open about having a place in Austin and working remotely where I feel like for 2.5-3 years. Currently in San Diego. Why someone felt the need to project their money insecurity onto me was weird I agree, but pretending it’s a Rocko level retort is a wet fart noise.

Sorry, Uncle Joe. All you're getting is my vote. That's all any politician will ever get from me.

I gave a little the other day. The very next day I got a text asking if I would match the donation I gave the day before.

Guess what dipshits, we get more debt cancellation. I didn’t do this, you didn’t do this, only debt fairy Papa Joe did.

https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/student-loan-forgiveness-7-7-billion-heres-who-qualifies-biden/
 

Biden administration cancels $7.7 billion in student debt for 160,500 people. Here's who qualifies.

The White House on Wednesday said it has approved $7.7 billion of student debt cancellation for 160,500 borrowers, part of its ongoing effort to provide relief after the Supreme Court last year blocked President Joe Biden's plan for broad-based college loan forgiveness. 

With the latest round of forgiveness, the administration has erased a total of $167 billion in student loans for 4.75 million people, or about 1 in 10 student loan borrowers, the Department of Education said.

  • 66,900 borrowers will have $5.2 billion forgiven through the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, which is designed to help public servants such as teachers, nurses and law enforcement officers get their debt canceled after 10 years of repayments. 
  • 54,300 borrowers will have $613 million forgiven through the SAVE plan. 
  • Another 39,200 borrowers will have $1.9 billion forgiven through adjustments to their income-driven repayment plans. These plans were sometimes mismanaged by loan servicers, which made it more difficult for some borrowers to achieve forgiveness.

This would help explain the pending panic at C3 Presents.  

Then again, it's been a decade long threat by anti-trust regulators and nothing has happened except more monopoly and increased fees.
