This. Consumption is up, savings rates are down. Core inputs into the economy are too expensive like meat and gas.

It’s only rosy in the aggregate and then maybe for areas overlooked and for the wealthy.

It can’t stay like this forever. Something will have to give. The rest of the working class folks and lower will not put up with being lied to all day long, well maybe if they voted Trump it won’t matter. Nvm nothing to see here. No minds ever change.

Yup and amidst all this chaos giant companies (the new east India companies) will run roughshot over everything. I still hope a new administration would have taken Elon to task for giant nitrogen oxide spewing gas turbines for his data center in lower income largely black towns. I can hope I guess.

Step 1 take Congress. Step 2 in 2028 take the White House. Step 3 start fixing all the damage of the last 2 Trump administrations. I’m long the US. We will get there.

Of course he knows where his bread is buttered. And he will cozy up to the new powers too. He has no spine. No moral code. It’s all power and money and meta. Fine. Good for shareholders. Bad for young men everywhere trying to pattern themselves after these barrons of industry.

When the Dems take Congress good ol’ Zuck will be woke again. The man has no spine. And because he doesn’t his share price has skyrocketed.

White collar protests are a rich 300-700k+-a-year-engineer luxury. Not for the rest of us.

Have fun with that. But … I’m not in a position to have such a luxury. I got a family to feed and bills to pay. Idealism died when I got a mortgage and got married.

My question exactly. Interested in seeing how far they take this.

Was… it still is some of the best you can buy on the used market new or old. Best endurance and speed. Shame they got rid of it.

what're these buyouts like? what does it entail? What kind of package are they getting?
