I work, and the fact that my tax money is going into a black hole makes my blood boil. God bless Musk and DOGE for what they do. Here is just one headline from today, The Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) on Monday r

I would like to see ALL FDA documents on covid-19 vaccine emergency use authorization. Biden's FDA has been fighting court orders tooth and nail for 4 years. Where were all the Trump haters with their outrage... hypocrisy at its best.

Not quite. You should look, for example, into the events of 1971, specifically, US policy regarding foreign exchange rates. Using dominant US dollar position, the US has achieved re-evaluation of exchange rates favoring US exports. As a co

Thank you Sherlock for this invaluable suggestion. Quite often this is simply not possible. Next time I read "according to our anonymous sources in the FBI", I'll make sure I reach out to them for verification.

That's one possibility. The other possibility is that the journalist mentions anonymous sources because he/she does not have any and is simply making stuff up.

Fine, I'll go with your definition. I already pointed out (which you didn't bother to read) that fire-sale of assets before the bancruptcy does not make them out of reach to the collector. Maybe you need yet another definition.

If it is legal and done in plain sight, then it is not "hiding" by definition. If it were illegal, the court and the lawyers representing parents would have done something about the fact of the sale. Hide: "put or keep out of

Have you seen the proof, or are you repeating what was written by someone else? There is a big difference. I bet this is the usual "credible information from anonymous government sources".

Done any farming lately? You would not get enough yield to feed people without fertilizer. Of course it can be produced from a source different from manure. Nitrogen-based fertilizer is produced from cheap natural gas... oh wait... that is

You do it then. I like my beef and milk, and I don't care if they use up the land or produce methane.

1.6% is the change in the CPI. The actual inflation is about 8%. There was a huge change in the CPI in 2022 or 2023, mostly attributed to sharply higher cost of energy.

I fail to see the connection between Dostoevsky and air defence. Following the same logic, I should stop listening to Beethoven (because of nazis), or drive a Honda because of unit 731. Say whatever you want, but people will listen to Tch

The Fed is really not printing anything, and they have a lot of power to control money supply through open market operations. It is incredibly efficient when doing this, and can increase the cost of capital very quickly. But like you said

There are many faces of inflation. The "money supply" you are talking about was not the primary driver in the last few years and there was robust demand for the treasury issuance. You will see the money supply inflation pick up w

Not sure if you are joking or not, but BRICS certainly have enough developers for that effort, especially if it is encouraged and financed by the member states. I would not be surprised if this happens.

Understood, that's true, to do any serious study people had to apply to and enter a formal program, day, evening, or remote. The other option was private tutoring. The exchange program ran in early 80s.
