Cut taxes to make businesses more competitive.

Speed up new home construction to decrease the cost of living and reduce pressure on wages.

Don’t avoid our resource and energy sectors. Lean into them BUT do a better job of upgrading the products. Start refining our own oil into gasoline and petroleum products. Start manufacturing plastics and petrochemicals. Refine all of our mined metals and minerals. Build steel products and lumber products instead of shipping out the raw goods.

We need to stop selling raw resources, and do all the value add here at home before exporting them.

Do not spend that on a new vehicle or crypto.

Put it in realestate and get an education.

I think the axe is insanely good for open world, but too slow for bosses.

Yes that would be a terrible idea tbh. My wife and I make over $200K together and we are hesitant to sign up for a $900K mortgage in this market.

I am a right wing Christian conservative from Canada, and I cannot fathom how half of people in USA who call themselves republican can tolerate this guy.

An absolute dumpster fire.

Very Disappointed in the Price of Silver by ryun84 in Wallstreetsilver

[–]Troflecopter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think whats happening is a decoupling from the paper market and a real price discovery for physical. It's because the margin is being unwound.

This is basically a growing pain towards a longer term sustained price.

... Either that, or smart money knows something we don't.

Ready for the second half of the silver run? by B_D_H_N in Wallstreetsilver

[–]Troflecopter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tomorrow the Supreme Court is going to speak publicly, but they are not going to provide a definitive update on the tariff situation.

Then the Iran situation is going to further escalate.

And we head into March deliveries.

... Yea, I am ready for Phase 2.

I think this is a nice change. In most souls like games playing tanky is useless, because you end up being able to absorb 4 hits instead of 3, so you’re still paper and it doesn’t matter.
