It's going to get worse, I'd imagine, as more Americans double down on 2nd citizenship, permanent residencies. As the US becomes more unstable, the risk of overstaying is going to increase. Countries will start yanking visa free entry as the US falls apart.

- hypeatei 1y agoThe stock market isn't representative of 1) how the economy is doing and 2) how your civil rights are doing. Would you say the surveillance state we've lived under since Bush is fine because the stock market is at an all time high?

Stocks are not as rational as you're making them out to be. As the saying goes "gradually, then suddenly" Your remarks about "shorting the market if you think this" are not only ignorant but passive aggressive.
