@Kevin_McKernan @jackcoder0 Wow. Apples and Oranges. Hopefully you can tell the difference.

@jackcoder0 Economic morons. If this were true, the Industrial Revolution would have ended us. Bunch of Keynesian claptrap.

Two economists just published a mathematical proof that AI will destroy the economy. Not might. Not could. Will — if nothing changes. The paper is called "The AI Layoff Trap." Published March 2, 2026. Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Boston University. Peer reviewed. Mathematically modeled. The conclusion is one sentence. "At the limit, firms automate their way to boundless productivity and zero demand." An economy that produces everything. And sells it to nobody. Here is how you get there. A company fires 500 workers and replaces them with AI. A competitor fires 700 to keep up. Another fires 1,000. Every company is behaving rationally. Every company is following the incentives correctly. And every company is building a trap for itself. Because the workers who were fired were also customers. When they lose their jobs faster than the economy can absorb them, they stop spending. Consumer demand falls. Companies respond by cutting costs — which means automating more workers — which means less spending — which means more falling demand — which means more automation. The loop has no natural exit. The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income. Capital income taxes. Worker equity participation. Upskilling programs. Corporate coordination agreements. Every single one failed in the model. The only intervention that worked: a Pigouvian automation tax — a per-task levy charged every time a company replaces a human with AI, forcing them to price in the demand they are destroying before they pull the trigger. No government has implemented this. No major economy is seriously discussing it. Meanwhile the numbers are already tracking the curve. 100,000 tech workers laid off in 2025. 92,000 more in the first months of 2026. Jack Dorsey fired half of Block's workforce and said publicly: "Within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion." Nobody is doing anything wrong. Companies are following their incentives perfectly. That is exactly the problem. Rational behavior. At scale. Simultaneously. With no mechanism to stop it. Two economists built the math. The math leads to one place. Source: Falk & Tsoukalas · Wharton School + Boston University ·

@jackcoder0 I've been saying this EXCACT thing for over 4 years now. Surprised people aren't running for the hills yet. But can't pull themselves away from the semiconductor mania in markets. It's Gotta Be right around the corner though. 90% in Cash here... waiting...

@mcnatoo @Imm05M @TrumpDailyPosts Getting Nothing?!!! Go look up how Don Jr's drone company is doing after getting a Pentagon contract that was handed to him by Navarro.

@Imm05M @TrumpDailyPosts The war that Trump started for no reason and directly caused higher gas prices and he is getting nothing out of the billions he spent on his vanity war? Yes, please end it.

The republicans will not only hold but also increase majorities in both the House and Senate in November Bookmark this

@elonmusk Keep that mesmerism going. You're gonna need it to sell your SpaceX Mega Scam to your rubes next month. (Please let the Put options go on sale the same day as the stock) 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

SpaceX has almost finished writing V1.0 of an in-house AI training stack in C that exact-maps to 220k GB300s with 800G NICs, making heavy use of pipeline parallelism and getting as close to bare metal as possible. The potential speed improvement vs JAX for large training runs is over an order of magnitude.

@GaryPetersonUSA Your "daughter" is lookin' good!!! 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮

The left can’t handle my daughter’s new President Trump tattoo. Sorry, wokesters, consider yourselves owned.

@elonmusk @Starlink Chump.

Most airlines are partnering with @Starlink. The others will have terrible WiFi and lose customers as a result.

@WillOHara131 @anishmoonka *which, from what it sounds like, is their Entire loan book. The minute rates rises to a certain threshold, their loan sales pipeline will have a "clog" that will bring everything to a grinding hault.

@anishmoonka It’s mostly subprime auto loans they are a subprime auto lender. And subprime loan delinquencies are at record highs. The problem will be their subprime loan book

Carvana made about $6,800 in profit on every car they sold last quarter. The typical used car dealer makes around $1,500. Carvana makes four times as much because the car is just the start of what they sell you. About 85 out of every 100 Carvana buyers finance the car through Carvana. At CarMax, their biggest competitor, the same number is closer to 40. When you click "finance" on Carvana's website, they write the loan at one interest rate, then sell that loan to a bank or pension fund within days. They keep the gap between what you pay and what the bank pays them. That gap, multiplied across hundreds of thousands of buyers, is how they print money. Then come the add-ons. An extended warranty. Coverage that pays off your loan if the car gets totaled. An insurance referral to Root, a digital car insurance company Carvana owns a piece of. Each one stacks on top of the same checkout. The car is the bait. The loan is the meal. Everything else is dessert. This is why selling them your car at a price that felt too generous still works for them. The money they make on that trade-in shows up later, after the next buyer signs. They clean it up, sell it to someone else, and that someone else signs another Carvana loan. This is also why they aren't going anywhere. In May 2022 they bought ADESA, a used car auction company, for $2.2 billion. ADESA came with 56 auction yards across the US. Now Carvana owns the auction yard, the body shop that fixes the car up, the trucks that deliver it, and the lender that funds the next buyer. Every step of that car's journey happens inside something Carvana owns. Three years ago none of this looked like it would survive. Carvana's stock hit $3.55 in December 2022. They had over $5.7 billion in debt. The market thought they were going bankrupt. Then Apollo, a giant private equity firm, led a deal with their lenders that cut $1.2 billion of debt and pushed the deadlines out to 2028. Last quarter they sold 187,000 cars and made $405 million in profit in 90 days. They joined the S&P 500 in December. Their market cap sits near $84 billion. Bigger than Ford. The whole business looks confusing if you think of Carvana as a car company. The math gets simple once you see them as a lender that happens to deliver cars.

@scottm2032 @jackrwilkie Set aside some cash to pay for the "reprogramming therapy" you're gonna need when you finally learn the truth.

@jackrwilkie I live in Scottsdale. The Garcia family ( Ernie Sr, Jr) are the biggest con artist in America. I’m waiting for an Enron ending. Smoke and mirrors with this company. The balance sheet is as legitimate as Joe Biden running our country for four years 🙄🙄

Sold a car to Carvana today and I have no idea how they stay in business. Inexplicable.

@DavidHenigUK Did he forget SCOTUS struck down his tarrifs?

Your regular reminder that no trade deal with President Trump can be considered permanent, and it might not even last the day.

@BRICSinfo To the people asking, "Didn't he just say the war was over?" Yep, on about day 60 of the 60 days he has to go to congress and ask for approval of war. Now he's gonna pull a fast one to restart the 60 day limit. Get ready for Iran war #2. Did you get short like all his pals?

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 President Trump says US may resume strikes on Iran.

@newvisionwolvez @BRICSinfo And why do you suppose he said that at almost exactly the 60-day mark? Could it have anything to do with the 60 day limit to conflicts before he has to go to congress??? 🤣😂🤣🤣😂

@BRICSinfo It’s been ONE DAY 😭😂😂

@Najiahope @BRICSinfo 🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣

@BRICSinfo Why? I thought there was a memorandum of understanding between this two countries?

@Syed_Asiff @BRICSinfo Yes. He said that to try to reset the 60 days he has to go to congress to get authorization for a war. This will be Iran War #2 and he thinks he'll get another 60 days. Just watch. It's the only reason he'd say that on days 60.

@BRICSinfo Didn’t they announce yesterday that the war is over? Does he have some memory loss issue or what?

@pamadkisson @McCheryC @WhiteHouse Someone is sad and very lonely... oh yeah, and Super relevant!!! 😂🤣🤣😂

The whole Biden regime came after everyone.. 🙄🤨🔎💯 So #Kimmel is “offended” by Aaron Rodgers. Got it..🙄🤡📉. Hypocrite!! Jimmy Kimmel Deeply Offended and Demands Apology After Aaron Rodgers Jokes He’s on the Epstein List Kimmel: “It crossed the line… I never do that!” Aaron Rodgers Actually Said About Jimmy Kimmel & the Epstein List: "There's a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, who are really hoping that doesn't come out. If that list comes out, I will definitely be popping some sort of bottle." Me too, @AaronRodgers12 Me too. 🍾🗝️💯 I definitely pity you. Indoctrinated much??

When is ABC Fake News Network firing seriously unfunny Jimmy Kimmel???

@pamadkisson @WhiteHouse Look Out! We've got a "critical thinker" here. 😂🤣🤣😂🤣

@WhiteHouse Right?!!! #FireKimmel ‼️🚨😡😡😡

@HunterTradesss @King0ftheCharts This guy's been calling the top for the last 36 months.

@King0ftheCharts u been sayin this every weekend lol

. US Will Likely Resume Military Operations This Weekend If the US resumes major military operations against Iran this weekend, oil prices would almost certainly spike sharply and rattle markets. So there is a high chance that the S&P 500 will finally join Bitcoin and get a bigger selloff. Crude oil is up 4.80% at the time of this post. Trump just posted, "Iran can’t get their act together. They don’t know how to sign a nonnuclear deal. They better get smart soon! President DJT." Again, the conventional wisdom is that Iran will agree to a negotiated settlement of peace, which is why we've had the stock market rally. I continue to warn, that the war will end with a show of force and the US will likely resume military operations to finish the job. I think there is a good chance that happens after the stock market closes on Friday, May 1st or Saturday May 2nd. #war #Iran #Trump $SPY $SPX #SP500 $NDX $QQQ #NASDAQ100 $NQ #stockmarketcrash #oil #Powell $DJIA $DJI $DIA $IWM $RUT $VIX $BTC #BTC #Bitcoin $BTCUSD #BTCUSD

@King0ftheCharts Resume operations. Riiiiight. This guy is too deep in the trump kool-aid barrel to know what's up from down.

@07Puppster01 @realstewpeters Very generous with the body here. How about we get the 80 year old on the bikini, not the fit 40 year old?!!

@realstewpeters America wins the “Fell for it again” Award!

TRUMP: “I’m canceling peace talks in Pakistan with the Iranians because it’s a waste of time.” Bro, Iran canceled all further talks with you like a week ago. WTF are you talking about?

@GberevaP @unusual_whales Is anyone STILL asking that question at this point?!!! 🤣😂😂🤣😂

@unusual_whales Sounds tough, but tariffs are basically a tax. The question is: who actually ends up paying for it?

Trump: "We're raising tariffs very soon"

@elonmusk It'll Never be enough for this shitbird. You'd think he'd have better things to do with his time, but no.

South Africa won’t allow Starlink to be licensed, even though I was BORN THERE, simply because I am not Black! We were offered many times the opportunity to bribe our way to a license by pretending that a Black guy runs Starlink SA, but I have refused to do so on principle. Racism should not be rewarded no matter to which race it is applied. Shame on the racist politicians in South Africa. They should be shown no respect whatsoever anywhere in the world and shunned for being unashamedly RACISTS!
