    There ain't gonna be any reset on world reserve currency, especially crypto. The Fed does not back up our $$$, it is the mighty military power of the US navy that backs it up. I have seen it up close for 5 years serving in 3 different aircraft carriers. There are now 2 of them in the Gulf right...

    I hardly agrees with that, consider most of our rants, including Mj himself on this forum, is about how mindless consumerism goes in the US, and we should not expect less this time around. Matter of fact, this is what I believe those 2 'free checks' coming in April and May is about. The line of...

    I am surprised that you said a lot of nothing in a lot talking points, and I thought all this is going to lead to how we can finally have a proper deflation is good for the economy in the long term but short term pain can not be avoided, but then you also end up saying that deflation is worse...

    I know, but those jobs are non-skilled nor essential, most workers who actually produce are still at their jobs, or are working from home. It is mostly the low skill sector getting hit hard right now. I have no problem seeing the US bounce back as quick as they can as soon as the virus fear...

    The 2008 meltdown was a system meltdown, like as, there are something wrong with the system itself, and there were shaking confidence as to how the system is going to be fixed, will it even be fixed, and such. This time around, this is really a natural, global disaster, as much as I hate to say...

    So ok in 45 days we will be back up then, the consumer machine will be back, like I said, just don't know when, perhaps in as little as 2 weeks, but maybe 2 month? And that's ok too, because there is a come back, just sometime in the future. It took about 2.5 month for China to come back, and I...

    I am pretty sure there is gonna be a oil surge and buying spread once this pandemic is over, China is already heading back to work slowly but surely, and in a month this will pass in the US, meaning the biggest consuming machine will be back spending again. We just don't know exactly when, but...

    Americans sure do love their particular flavor of socialism isn't it? I think people on this forum need to realize this is true and assume their positions from this basis instead of thinking that Americans are really all what they all say they are, some rugged individualism or something.

    Sonos: How to ruin your brand and piss off your early adopters (of course, do it after you go public)

    MARKETING FTE 
    This is the standard procedure in the neo-liberal era of global economics: grow big and in a cozy, supportive environment built by either early adaptors that took a risk on you, or public money supplied by the Fed, then the moment you finally become big, go public on wall street and ditch your...

    Ever wonder how people end up in dead end jobs at 40?

    GOLD! 
    It is also better for me because education can not be taken from me, I can take them from place to place, it is my asset, whereas the work I do at work only belongs to the boss man, not me.

    Ever wonder how people end up in dead end jobs at 40?

    GOLD! 
    SO this is what I do at work: do the min. amount of work required and not to get fired. Then use the downtime or off time during work to study for more IT certs. Funny thing is management actually likes the fact that I get those certs, because it makes the company look good, and make me look...

    I could care less about the 'not all of us' thing, I need to make a decision based on a likelihood analysis of the situation. If the majority of people do things one way, then it does not matter to my decision making process what the minority are doing, because as a newcomer to this place, every...

    That is the biggest lesson I learned being a first gen immigrant in the US: you do not judge people here by what they say, but judge them on what they do and what choices do they make. If you only judge americans on what they say, then I am afraid that you are going to have hell of a hard time...
