You didn't read the article, this thread is pointless

An article that is the exact opposite of an announcement they've had their worst day on the market in over fifty years is far more specific than "Trust me it worked"

I think you are presenting this as true, but all the evidence points to the bailout as having no effect. You aren't presenting any counter evidence other than just saying it worked and to wait.

So the bailout was a complete waste of money? Why couldn't they have done the work before and we just waited?

Cellular on my first iPad felt like such a waste of money. Every time I needed Internet I had Wi-Fi or my phone became a hot spot

Both sides argument are springing up like weeds all over the various forums in the last couple weeks before a predicted major shift in Congress.

If you have deeply unpopular policies but only 1/3rd of the country is expected to vote, telling everyone their vote won't matter is the best stance to take.

The Orville show explores this idea, before LLMs became a thing. Simulators become the replacement for movies, but the simulations are still designed by a person (or alien).

The concept feels more like a video game than a movie in the show, but presumably you could program the simulation to happen around you instead of you moving through it.

So to fix the system, people should throw up their hands, not vote and just complain about it in the comments instead?

I'll vote in primaries for the candidate that most represents my views and continue to not let perfect be the enemy of good on election day. Lip service and small improvement officials are always much better than officials that negatively target me or my community.

There are people alive today who lived under Jim Crow laws. Is there any argument you would like to make that getting rid of them and enacting the other associated legislation in the 60s was not an advancement?

State an actual solution, you're just making a covert both sides argument under the guise of a longer rant.

I love the both siding argument springing up right before election day.

All of the pizza chains from my youth A/B tested their ingredients into a weird hill climbing problem. They are all worse tasting and more expensive but despite tasting very differently they are basically equal in how good they taste. You can't really say one is better than the other but they are definitely all worse than they were before.
