Grim predictions for America
« on: November 04, 2018, 06:24:20 PM »
I predict definite economic fallout.

But there three others predictions I see possible:

1) America degenerates into a country in which there is no middle class but instead a dumbed-down, zombie-like, subservient, poor racial mix, lorded over by a lighter-skinned elite.

2) Civil war, in which the most vicious, most-organized, and bravest race wins. And I am not talking about the race with the most numbers.

3) Asians take over through attrition, simply from numbers, financial power, studiousness, influence, and industriousness, and eventual political domination, coupled with a lack of altruism for others (eg, no affirmative action or welfare game for the people who usually receive such benefits).

Not joking or trolling.

Thoughts?

America is too big to fail.

If it gets in deep trouble there will be a bailout.

Within 20 years, and it will be caused by economic crash. Not sure which of your three scenarios plays out though. If I had to pick, I guess I’d hope for 2.

Billionaire George Soros reportedly lost nearly $1 billion during Trump rally

Billionaire George Soros lost nearly $1 billion after the stock market surged following Donald Trump 's unexpected Nov. 8 election victory, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The hedge-fund manager's former deputy, Stanley Druckenmiller, however, foresaw the rally and gained a sizable profit, the Journal reported, citing people close to the matter.

The sources told the Journal Soros was cautious about the market going into the election and became bearish after Trump won.

Stocks and Treasury yields jumped in the wake of Trump's victory, amid the prospects of looser regulations in certain sectors, lower tax rates, and fiscal stimulus.

Soros' hedge fund, Soros Fund Management, manages about $30 billion for Soros and his family. Soros was a supporter oof Hillary Clinton's campaign.

Millennials bought leveraged gold ETFs after Trump was elected and got hammered: NYSE trader

Yahoo Finance Video • December 19, 2016

Bloomberg reports they piled into gold ETFs, some with leverage, after the election, expecting Trump to trigger a risk-selloff. The opposite occurred and gold has dropped nearly 15% from the election-night high.

Investors think too highly of America, and Millennials have too much cash, survey finds

November 5, 2018

US investors think way too highly of America. Millennials have more cash than they need and not enough stocks. And nobody actually thinks owning bitcoin is a good idea.

Those are some of the findings from a recent online survey of 1,000 investors conducted by asset management firm Legg Mason between late July and late August.

Michael LaBella, head of global equity strategy at QS Investors, a Legg Mason affiliate, said he was surprised that investors remained so optimistic about the US stock market considering that the bull market will hit its 10th anniversary in March. This is one of the longest US bull markets ever, but the rest of the world hasn't performed as well over the past decade.

Hello Mr. Conservacoach. Care to reply with any thoughts?

By the way, I only know Krugman's name; I don't know a damn thing about his economic theories or predictions. I haven't read or heard one sentence from him.

Great zinger.

These predictions don't matter if they are accurate.

 I have it on good authority that dinosaurs will be making a comeback in 1000 years so you should really be focused on that.

Will this happen in America as well?



The father was hacked up and shot dead.

The mother was raped and shot dead as well.

The family's dog was killed by having its stomach cut open.

All this in front of a sobbing 12 year old boy who was then drowned in boiling hot water.


If this doesn't make you furious and make your stomach turn then I don't know what will.

AI is going to take most peoples' jobs over the coming decades.

Was thinking the same thing.  The daughter hired the killers and then betrayed them and turned them in.

Doing the math, Trump's got China by the balls at the moment.

06 NOVEMBER 2018

"Yesterday, there was further proof that the Chinese economy is slowing down. The Caixin survey of services grew at its slowest rate in 13 months. We heard from the Chinese President too, Xi Jinping, and he pledged to open up China’s markets, and talked about the benefits of more open trading relationships. Beijing have been making a big push recently to reduce regulations on investing and introduce more pro-business policies. The Chinese government are giving off the impression they are worried about the economic slowdown."

You saw my post! I agree. We have bigger fish to fry such as dinosaurs.
