Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
We can only hope. At this point I no longer have any idea where a countervailing force would come from to put a stop to the egregious Federal governmental lawbreaking.
So far, the military continues to be complicit. ...... Impeachment is a year or s…
Don't even get me started. Whether one is religious or not, it is safe to observe and assert that way too many fake Christians cast votes for the Orange One. And it's all the more heinous, after they saw his FIRST regime.
In another direction, "Tw…
I think I bought my final tiny tranche of EWS. Watch to see if it breaks out. Might break my own rule and get into CX if it falls a bit. There was no dividend, not long ago; now there is a tiny dividend. Will this world ever need LESS cement? Nope.
I hope this one fits. Just remembered it. From the Deja Vu album. CSN&Y. "Carry On."

Yes, we share the same understanding of the requirements. 67 votes in the Senate. I just can't realistically believe that there will be a sufficient number of new Senators in that body after the '26 mid-terms who will be non-Repugnants. I actually …
Not a big Monkeys fan, but always liked the ironic surrealism of Pleasant Valley Sunday. Carole King and her songwriting partner wrote that.
Neil Diamond wrote 4 songs for The Monkeys, including "I'm a Believer".
And Jon Stewart's "Daydream Belie…
No surprise from the Orange Disaster.

"...with little hope of recouping their investments in the near term."
Well, ya. I'd see the whole A.I. thing as a VERY long-term enterprise, and it will evolve in size and capabili…
"...Long before the U.S. shale boom, when global production of light sweet crude oil was declining, we [American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers] made significant investments in our refineries to process heavier, high-sulfur crude oils that w…
Not a word from the Orange Criminal can be trusted, period. Yes, his cronies surrounding him are surely leading the charge to dismantle our democracy: he doesn't know enough about how to even begin. To say nothing of his ongoing mental decline. He w…
@larryB: Shelby Foote reminded viewers (K. Burns' The Civil War) that our system is based on compromise. Often, and from the beginning, it's distasteful compromises--- like allowing slavery to continue. What happened in the pre-1861 years leading u…
"...Just one opinion."
Not hardly. My take: EAT the Rich. In so many ways, in so many directions, what the wealthiest are doing and lobbying for is an entire separate space, their own private society, apart from the rest of us. No need to pay taxes…
...I don't comprehend the "replacement percentage" stuff. And people should not have to work until 69, that's fecal in a rat-fart sort of way. I seem to recall it was Ray-guns who decided to keep the distinct ledger for SS, but to mix the existing b…
I'll read it later, I promise. I got an answer already: remove the salary cap. And make the contributions from both employers and employees a truly PROGRESSIVE, sliding scale, by income. I like to wear the T-shirt I bought from the Bernie store: TAX…
@BaluBalu. With all due respect,,,, both partyism is a total crock of shit. The most mediocre, uninspiring and incompetent Democrat is miles ahead of what the republicans have unleashed on this country and more broadly ,, the entire world. It’s an …
