@TimRunsHisMouth I believe the republican big donors are hedging their donations by betting talarico to win

[David Laferriere @DavidLaferrier3]

The trading markets for politics are purely driven by whales hedging their ad spend or hedging their businesses future outcomes.

@howertonjosh This video gets me so fired up.

Premise:

Incentives drive all human behavior.

The corollary:

How to destroy a country:

A vast social security and support system that serves as a magnet for those who would rather not work.

An open immigration policy that does not screen immigrants to determine their ability and willingness to provide for themselves and their families.

An open immigration policy that does not screen for political and/or religious ideologies that are a threat to the country.

Economic incentives large enough to incentivize immigrants on the state dole to have large numbers of children, but insufficient for educated and economically productive mothers to be able to quit to raise a family.

The declining fertility of the most educated and productive women due to their delay to begin a family as a result of their desire and/or need to advance their careers, among other reasons, to live a life they deem consistent with their educational achievements and/or to repay their student debts.

Amnesty programs that give citizenship and voting power to illegal immigrants without consideration of their economic productivity or their threat to the country due to their religious or political ideologies.

The changing demographics and increased population due to the above factors.

The state responding to protests by increasing social support.

The continued failure to punish and hold accountable violent and looting rioters.

Government managed by a massive and growing unelected bureaucracy.

Government fraud, waste, and abuse contributed to ballooning budgets.

Anti-business legislation that makes it difficult for businesses to compete in a global marketplace being disrupted by AI, including restrictions on firing even poorly performing employees.

Overly burdensome, globally uncompetitive, corporate taxation.

Continuous increases in personal taxes to raise funds to provide for the rapidly growing welfare state.

The substantial majority of the tax burden levied on a small percentage of the population.

A growing percentage of the electorate paying no taxes and receiving welfare.

The introduction or threat of a wealth tax including the taxation of unrealized gains, i.e., taxes on paper wealth.

The flight of the most productive business builders and highest taxpayers to lower tax countries with lesser security concerns.

A growing percentage of the electorate voting for candidates that support increased welfare and laws favorable to, and/or that match the cultural and ideological needs and desires of a growing unproductive immigrant population.

The rapid rise in anti-semitism and inadequate efforts to address this hatred.

Increased borrowing by the state to fund the growing social burden.

Higher sovereign interest rates due to all of the above.

The resulting need to reduce expenditures to make the math work.

Increasingly violent protests that make life less livable for the productive and law abiding citizens leading to their accelerated departure.

And so on…

SF Bro who bet on himself with his own cash right before fast roping onto a foreign president’s roof and stealing him like a snickers bar from a gas station is going to do more time than all of the Somali fraudsters who stole $18bn from Minnesota combined.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Rep. Anna Paulina Luna calls for President Trump to pardon US soldier arrested for making over $400,000 betting on Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro.

"Unless the DOJ plans on going after all the crooks in Congress currently insider trading, this is simply skewed justice."

[Mostly Peaceful Memes @MostlyPeaceful]

Maybe arrest all the Somali fraudsters and congress insider traders before going after delta operators betting on America to win

[David Laferriere @DavidLaferrier3]

@NoLimitGains It is most concerning that many people wanted their money back at once. These private funds need to deploy all assets to make returns and cover the interest.

Bigger story is one why so many people needed withdrawals at once.

[Geiger Capital @Geiger_Capital]

There’s literally an old motel with 30 fake hospice businesses in the rooms, and the parking lot is full of brand new BMWs and Mercedes…

Just as blatant as the empty daycares.

[Joey Swoll @TheJoeySwoll]

Billions and billions of dollars of fraud, stolen taxpayer money, misappropriation, and this woman is upset over a few million spent to feed our brave men and women that protect our freedom a well-deserved steak and lobster dinner? I'm damn proud my tax dollars went to that! 🇺🇸

Somebody flopping their way to an 80-point game against a team doing its best to lose on purpose is such a perfect defining moment for Adam Silver's NBA.
