@swaghuahua @MonPrimLemon This is not a selection of all homeowners. You do not understand statistics in the slightest.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@swaghuahua @MonPrimLemon This has literally nothing to do with present homeowners, and the average millennial is nearly 40.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@swaghuahua @MonPrimLemon And again, that is not at all true. You are just making things up.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@swaghuahua @MonPrimLemon This is, again, not remotely true or how math works. The statistic you are citing is that 10% of home buyers used an inheritance for down payments. That is not even remotely the same thing as saying "most millennials inherited homes".

@BestNewtype007 Tell me you never played high school sports without telling me...

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@lymanstoneky The analysis appears to preclude the effect of multiple-conviction.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@swaghuahua @MonPrimLemon This is... not true. It's not even remotely true.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@ChristianHeiens This is... completely normal. What are you talking about? A fluctuation of a few million is pretty standard.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@lefineder On the other hand... Euler.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@AdrienneRoyer This is mostly because those people aren't Christians. Intent to remain childless is one of the strongest predictors of irreligion. You have your causation backwards.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@AdrienneRoyer Oh... OK, yeah, that sounds like a regional issue. DC is notorious, and TN depending on the city.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@AdrienneRoyer Maybe this is a regional or denominational thing. I have never attended any church, even small ones, that didn't have a borderline-excessive outreach program. Usually truer the smaller the congregation.

@badvalorem Eisenhower had an entire policy paper:

Reagan was much more free-market-oriented, but recognized the necessity of retaliatory tariffs:

@AdrienneRoyer ... Is this satire of some sort?

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@robkroese Walmart has had digital tags for YEARS. Pretty sure this is just entirely fabricated (and against the law in a lot of states). I do retail contracting that includes prices changes, and we've had to tighten up timeframes because you can't have price differences like this.

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@Jmarmstrong88 @RubinReport No, the answer is that NOTHING you are talking about is a "middle class" lifestyle. It's not even Upper Middle Class. You are leading an Upper Class life and investing/saving, what, half of your post-tax income without trouble? But Miami houses are expensive?

[P.M. Phillips @S1AL]

@Jmarmstrong88 @RubinReport And this is why this entire argument is insanely stupid.

"We invest 10k a month." "There's not much left over."

You don't even remotely understand reality, and post stuff like this. It's genuinely insane. You are hyper-privileged.
