If the markets wanted to go where the governments wanted them to go, then the governments wouldn't need to be involved in the first place.202409xx Site Updates

My opinion on trump-harris debate
In case the video is taken down from youtube, here is a backup:
The Social Recession Is Accelerating
Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog,
Did wages rise 10-fold to match the 10-fold rise in the cost of a modest house? No. That is social recession in a nutshell.
Powell Vows To Cut Rates With Stocks, Home Prices, Rents And Food At All Time Highs
From Zerohedge.
Well, it's official: Powell came, saw, and unlike two years ago when, with with CPI rising almost double digits the uber-hawkish Fed chair warned of "pain" to come, this time he couldn't be more dovish.
Life In A Sound-Money World
Authored by John Rubino via Substack,
Pretend, for a moment, that it’s 1971 and you’re President Richard Nixon (admittedly disturbing fantasies, but bear with me). You face the perennial government income/outflow dilemmas, and other countries, noting your struggle, are trying to cash their dollars in for your limited pile of gold bars.

Via Zerohedge.
When stocks are ejected from market-cap-weighted indexes, swooping in to load up on them -- and hold on to them -- can pay off nicely, according to a new paper from Newport Beach, California-based Research Affiliates LLC.

Game engines are excellent 3d environments, pleasant to look at, and so forth. Are you renting that environment to show it to other people, did you get it for free? Even if you paid to own a copy of your favorite song, you can't stream that song for free (or for profit) to millions (or dosens) of other people. Why can you stream a game, even the one you paid for, without giving daddy a cut?
And again, my rationale mostly centers on how excellent some game engines are, how marvelous it is to look at them. So charging streamers for displaying it to an audience seems reasonable, especially if reasonably priced.

Yes. Basically, humans are just meat bags. Human flesh is part of the carbon cycle. There is no intellectual existence to talk about, there are only industrial processes of growth and decay. That is where, conceptually, this politics is headed to.
P.S.: just wait for this to turn from optional to required.
