@Wrappedloona @nates_motel *can*

@Wrappedloona @nates_motel That is insane. Two things cam be true at once.

I beg your fucking pardon????

@onlineinsane That's one of those lose-lose scenarios. Just pack it on up, there is nothing you can say to make that sound sensible or legal.

You're right, I was off. I shouldn't have said "durable". I should have said, subjectively, "easier to work with". I love the technology in cars; I believe newer cars are easier to work with. Some people use older cars because that's what they're used to. Maybe, the person who bought that car really likes old cars and they have money to dish out. Either that or they just prefer the older cars.

@MathDailyHQ @nates_motel Lmao no cars in the 60s and 70s are not more durable. Some brands built cars in the 90s and 00 that go on forever. This dude swapped a Chevy engine and thinks the swap is worth it

@nocontextmemes That right there is insane. There is a zero percent chance a human moderator saw that and went, "this is worthy of a ban".

@DETONATEDcom When I played the game on my PlayStation a few years ago, the game was fine. That makes sense. Even if it didn't make sense, a Call of Duty game ninety percent off? That was unheard of.

Modern Warfare 2019 currently has MORE PLAYERS on Steam compared to #BlackOps7 & Warzone combined 👀 💥 It went on sale yesterday for $6.

@kaizu_r @nates_motel Not at first, no, I did not.

@MathDailyHQ @nates_motel did you not see the engine?

@MistaMe0w @nates_motel Cars in the sixties are a lot more durable then the cars today; even the cars that were in the nineties. Now, a hundred thousand is crazy, but the car being a Charger and it being from the sixties makes me slightly understand it.

@MathDailyHQ @nates_motel Ppl paid north of 100k for a shitty late 60s charger

@TheTriceRozay Yo!

As long as our economy outpaces the debt and we can afford to pay the interest, this is manageable. I know that this is a terrifying number to ponder, but the system is set up in a very specific way. A good example would be a rich person to an average person. A rich person can afford to take a debt worth $30,000; your average person, however, cannot. This nation functions in a similar way. We can handle this debt because of our economy's size. A nation like Venezuela would get crushed because they don't have access to resources like we do.

America’s national debt just hit $39 trillion. As @MayaMacGuineas of @BudgetHawks warns, both parties helped build this problem—and neither seems eager to fix it. Washington must stop pushing the problem down the road and start working together on a serious fiscal plan. crfb.org/press-releases…

Stop for just five seconds... If you can't donate, there's another option: 1_ Leave a dot. Just a tiny dot... but it might scream louder than silence. 💔 chuffed.org/project/151375…

Unfortunately, no one cares about mutual aid boost anymore. If you’re scrolling, PLEASE leave a dot . it's just a dot. My account is shadow banned.

Debt is money that is borrowed when an individual or entity spends more than it brings in and still needs to cover that gap. The United States does this on a yearly basis, typically spending more than it collects in taxes. The last time the U.S. ran a surplus was in 2001, when the national debt was around $5.66 trillion. The government spends money on things like the military, infrastructure, and programs such as Social Security, but tax revenue alone is not enough to fully fund all of this, so it must borrow money to make up the difference. The government borrows by issuing bonds through the U.S. Treasury. These bonds are essentially agreements where investors lend money to the government in exchange for repayment with interest. U.S. debt is divided into two main categories: public debt and intragovernmental debt. Public debt is owed to outside investors such as individuals, banks, pension funds, and foreign governments like Japan, while intragovernmental debt is money the government owes to its own programs, such as Social Security. The Federal Reserve does not directly fund government spending but can influence interest rates and buy government bonds in financial markets to help stabilize the economy. Congress does not treat the debt as an immediate crisis because the ability to manage it depends on the size and strength of the economy. A useful comparison is that a wealthy individual can handle more debt than someone with a low income. Similarly, the United States can sustain a large amount of debt because its economy is very large. As long as the economy continues to grow and the government can make its interest payments, the debt remains manageable, though not risk-free. Another reason is that investors have strong confidence in the U.S. government’s ability to repay, which keeps demand for its bonds high and borrowing costs relatively low. The Federal Reserve also provides a degree of stability by influencing interest rates and supporting financial markets. The debt is unlikely to ever be fully paid off, not because it is ignored, but because the system is structured around continuously managing it rather than eliminating it. The government regularly “rolls over” its debt, meaning it issues new bonds to pay off old ones as they come due. This keeps the system functioning without requiring a massive one-time repayment. Unlike a person, the United States does not have a fixed lifespan, so it can continue operating and managing its debt indefinitely. What matters most is that the economy grows at a pace that allows the government to keep up with its obligations. Paying off the entire debt all at once would not be practical or desirable. It would require extremely large tax increases, major spending cuts, or both, which could severely harm the economy. In addition, U.S. government bonds are a foundational part of the global financial system, serving as one of the safest and most widely used investments in the world. Eliminating them suddenly would disrupt financial markets and remove a key asset relied upon by investors and institutions worldwide. My previous explanation was off a little related to the Federal Reserve, so I used AI to fix everything up.

Ridiculous How can the US debt seriously ever be paid back. It’s laughable.

@Investor4424 Appreciated.

@MathDailyHQ I love the analysis ❤️

Getting rich and stay rich Which one is the hardest?

@em_Lazzy If you are a trader, I would keep an eye on the Foreign Exchange. This kind of stuff seems like something that would cause a significant difference in that.

Iran let an oil tanker through the Straight of Hormuz today, headed to India. They paid in Chinese currency, not the US dollar… Let that sink in.
