Lift the Offer

@Merridew__ There were top signs everywhere

@Merridew__ I agree with you that too many people have the franchise

America institutions be like: “what if, as a funny experiment, we try hiring smart and capable people for the job?”

@Merridew__ Which one's wrong

@Jacktheheartat1 @MrBugler @pvtjokerus The state of Minnesota doesn't pay taxes. People who live in Minnesota do. Want to guess which way those people vote based on how much taxes they pay?

@offer_lifted @MrBugler @pvtjokerus Right wingers will convince themselves of the most random bullshit before accepting that Dems are more fiscally responsible

Of course they do. They’re stealing everyone else’s money.

UBI advocacy stems from the naïveté and solipsism that because *I* am a deeply creative latent producer who is oppressed by my wagee job and would actualize my creative potential if only i could have my basic needs met, this must be true for everyone. Its not. First of all, it’s not even true for these “creatives”. If you aren’t creation maxxing while waging, you wont do it under luxury communism either. Creative work is extremely taxxing and your wage job isn’t actually that hard. The problem is your neuroticism and lack of discipline, not your job. All your necessities being provided for will only make you weaker and gayer such that you’ll make up some new bullshit to get overwhelmed by and then cope by playing video games all day. But worse because you won’t even have “at least i did *something* productive today”, which will magnify your depression. Second, luxury communism already exists for the bottom 20% of the population. All their food, housing, etc is completely covered by the state. Entire generations of people who haven’t worked a job in their lives. Do they go on to produce beautiful art and build companies? Or do they go on to get high and kill each other? The truth is that we are close enough to UBI today that most of the people who will ever become great artists and inventors are already going to do it, and as we get closer all that will happen is the people incapable of anything more than wage slavery (most people) will simply become dysfunctional parasites.

@MrBugler @pvtjokerus “Minnesota” doesn’t pay federal taxes

@pvtjokerus All of who’s money? MN pays more federal taxes than they receive. All of their own money? That’s great, taxing rich residents so poor residents can get the bare minimum they need to not live in poverty is a good thing actually.

@prinsessmarthe @457732277a @Zaxeter1 @DBZYuYuYasha @xwanyex Bro you're retarded if you think there's more than a handful of countries where minorities get treated better than the US And show me a nonwhite country that treats minorities even moderately well

@457732277a @Zaxeter1 @DBZYuYuYasha @xwanyex The US has a history of treating minorities unfairly. There is no need to pretend. If your system is fair, equitable and guarantees rights for all, there is nothing wrong with being in the minority.

Are you going to stop pushing for unlimited immigration and racial preferences? Right.

@jbulltard1 Should be good for 35bps down on the indexes

Honestly I think this ends with him nuking Tehran at some point in the future bc he’s losing his mind online and it’s pretty clear Iran is never giving him what he wants for an actual win.

@CyclicallyC @bloodandashesss @upstatefederlst It would be an unequivocally good thing for people who can't manage to fix simple things like that to not be able to vote.

@bloodandashesss @upstatefederlst There are an estimated 30 million Americans who can't produce strict documents as a result of a long list of things including home births, records lost at the source (fires, floods), tribal, poor, married, name-changed, mismatched apostrophies and hypens, the list goes on .

You cannot have a national popular vote when all 50 states have different rules for voter registration and balloting.

@MRBullMktEver You have to admit, it's OK to be a little giddy after this 6-sigma or whatever move up

They’re positively giddy here.

@Theta_Thursday Big, like 3%? Doubt we fill that 4/8 gap or even touch it

26900-27110s then big pullback. Goodbye

@J_Davis132 Good luck

@Merridew__ @Fabian_v4 Godspeed

@Merridew__ You tapping out on your vol longs?

@jcashmoney9123 @LongTplexTrader By definition, unprecedented also means you don't know what's gonna happen next

@LongTplexTrader Is it more bullishness. If it is please tell us

What an epic move in the indexes #ES_F and friends For my process, things I use I am seeing historic reads - in some cases I have never had the reads I am getting and this is going back multi decades Enjoy the history.....this is wild

Mamdani singled out and named a private citizen not for a crime or corruption, but for the offense of having money and owning a home. That is how third-world despots operate. I do not know how it works in Uganda, but in America we do not build policy around punishing people, and we do not declare law-abiding citizens enemies of the state or take their money simply because the mayor dislikes them. Taxes exist to fund the functioning of a city. They are not instruments of revenge or tools to satisfy a mayor’s personal envy. This has no place in New York City and runs against everything America stands for, but if you import the third world, you become the third world.

The last thing you see before you move to Florida:

@Merridew__ It was down more when I checked earlier lol, was near the LOD

@Merridew__ How is SVIX only up 11bps? VIX of all tenors and /VX for the front five months are all red by more than that
