@xevekiah You gave that wealth to them. Stop using X maybe.

Four white men have more wealth than half the planet… & you still think a brown immigrant is why you’re struggling? 😭😭 Explain that to me like I’m five.

@AgrimmoraReal Yes, you are gay. That's fine.

I remember as a kid when i was helping with groceries i held the grocery bag in a specific manner and my dad told me to stop it because "i was holding it in a really girly manner", and at that point something snapped in me and realized gender norms are stupid and i wanna be enby.

@Molycuddle You're wrong.

I always find it funny when people criticise socialism with arguments that better apply to capitalism

@SageThinker99 @feeonline I can see that you are not a nut job.

@ColtMail @feeonline but while I was working there for over a year and renting an apartment for my family, I read his economics textbook and it didn't even have the basics about capitalism that has to do with the land control as a commodity. so you're right I should have gotten the nobel.

“There is no alternative way, so far discovered, of improving the lot of the ordinary people that can hold a candle to the productive activities that are unleashed by a free enterprise system.” - Milton Friedman 🧐

@SageThinker99 @feeonline Wow. They should have given the Nobel prize to you instead.

@feeonline the elephant in the room that people like him never speak about is the fact that the way that capitalism controls land keeps the bulk of the people poor because it keeps wages low and the rent high. this is basic macroeconomics. it is a lie by omission

@stevebrown59056 @PeterSchiff Because they sell gold?

@PeterSchiff Peter, please explain why gold miners always get crushed?? are these like lottery tickets

In the early months of the 2008 GFC, gold crashed 32%, about 40% of its prior bull-market gain. After gold bottomed, it surged 178% over the next three years. Gold nearly hit $4,100 today, down 27%, about 40% of its gain since $2K. A 178% surge from that low puts gold at $11,400.

@rcarnold1 @PeterSchiff He's been telling people to buy hold since it was $300.

@PeterSchiff Dude you were telling everyone to buy gold at 5000

@MarketMakersLab @PeterSchiff Slop

@dugmartsch @cafreiman Yes and a ham and cheese sandwich tastes better than a cheese and ham sandwich. Everyone knows that.

There’s a really important difference in that the price goes down. It’s how companies have done “surge pricing” forever and it’s a great system. Going the other way only works in markets that are super dynamic and can use the price signal to get immediate supply. Consumers tolerate that.

Surge pricing opponents when they learn about happy hours and matinee discounts

@AnthonyLipke @cafreiman 'You can't use pricing I formation to make decisions for his way'. Do you know how stupid you sound?

@cafreiman When it's gouging based on need and when it's particularly targeting an individual ability to pay That's pretty predatory. Better to treat all customers equally. I don't like regional pricing on media either. You can't use pricing information to make decisions this way.

@cafreiman 'Surge pricing' is just a marketing mistake. They should have called it 'normal pricing' and called normal pricing 'discount pricing'.

@HonestBath @RobBfromDerby You're not paying attention.

@RobBfromDerby It’s such nonsense they all talk about having to apologise for this stuff, who is asking them to apologise. Why have I never been asked to apologise or anyone I know asked, are they getting confused with being asked to say sorry for being racist, or generally arse holes ?

Who has ever had to apologise foe being British? 😂

@PaulSculli78406 @RobBfromDerby Not asked, no. It's demanded. And were demanded to pay reparations too.

@RobBfromDerby Not one single solitary person as ever been asked or ever have apologised it’s all deliberate fantasy

@Beohrtnoth @RobBfromDerby This is exactly what she's taking about.

@RobBfromDerby She means she has had enough of apologising for being a bigot.

@slipperylilsnek @RobBfromDerby So you do apologise for being. British.

@RobBfromDerby Scottish people, Northern Irish people and the Welsh. It’s a constant cycle of “sorry- yeah sorry uh we’re not English we don’t vote on what goes in the museums, what that war crime? Yeah sorry no we uhhh we don’t get a say in that either”

@CiceroModern @steve_hanke Are you by any chance a Trump supporter?

@steve_hanke So now you're an international law expert, Steve? I've followed you enough to know what an inflated view of yourself you seem to have, but this is a new level of hubris.

BREAKING: If Iran does not open the Strait of Hormuz in 48 hours, Trump threatens to strike Iran's power plants. SUCH AN ATTACK IS GETTING CLOSE, IF NOT INTO, THE WAR CRIMES ZONE.

@MarkHubbard33 @steve_hanke Ooh, tough guy.

@steve_hanke Bullshit. Iran is one big 47 year long war bloody crime. Weasels like you are the end of the West.

@NotTrumpFan @iey0beeW @CatoInstitute And it's not just about what's right or wrong. Markets work better. On the level of pure economic analysis markets provide prosperity better than government ministries. If you want to know more, read Friedman's many books.

@iey0beeW @ColtMail @CatoInstitute Reasonable yes, but not popular at all …

Lower taxes mean more freedom, more choice, and more opportunity. When government takes less, people can do more. Let’s remind ourselves of the wisdom of Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman.

@NotTrumpFan @iey0beeW @CatoInstitute Just ask grok. It's been widely written about. Roads are a private good so it's really a non-issue. And tolls are a valid system. People don't 'like' paying taxes either.

@ColtMail @iey0beeW @CatoInstitute And no one here has yet to answer the question of how to pay for one of the more commons works - the roads we all use … Why are you all avoiding answering ??? If not through taxes or tolls, how ???

@NotTrumpFan @iey0beeW @CatoInstitute You don't know anything about this subject .

@ColtMail @iey0beeW @CatoInstitute Doesn’t mean he was right or correct … just means a lot of people who agreed with him might be, or are, were, wrong ..
