And if during the invention of calculus Newton made a negregious error, what serious reduction of the safety and security of that era's general population would occur? LOL your desperation is leading to some very hilarious analogy attempts Maybe Newton didn't get it right until the fifth iteration. The HS guy doesn't get to take risk free attempts at getting things right. Get to your computer right now and buy a new thinking cap!

when you want privacy, just put your phone in a wire mesh box... I guess a solid metal box or tinfoil works also.

And provided the biggest boost (160%) in the national debt..... with policies such as..... wait for it.... a huge tax cut for the rich and huge defense budget.

When budgets have significant funds set aside for the various pet projects of the supporting politicians, it is traditionally called pork-filled.

Fact.... it is the account holder's choice where to invest. Fact.... despite all the gyrations the stock market has not lost much since Jan. 20 Fact.... past performance does not guarantee future results Year To Date: DJI -.53% S&P500 +1.56% Nasdaq (QQQ) +2.56% Wind your neck in!

Are you familiar with 401K???? This post shows strong evidence you only have a hint of how they work. The 401K holder almost always has a choice of where the funds are invested. If they chose the stock market they should have been aware of the risks associated with that choice. I do agree that Trump is destroying America's reputation and a large part of the economy. However the investors should be paying attention and avoiding the markets if they aren't comfortable with the fluctuations and risks.

I just sent 55K from my SCB EZ Savings to BBL acccount....easy peasy instant success. On the return trip, BBL wanted me to stare at my phone and blink 3 times. I'm glad I didn't have to click my flip flops 3 times.

I can't make sense of this statement. The US Treasury sells Treasury bills to the SS trust funds. The Treasury issues SS benefit payments to the retirees, disabled, spouses, survivors, etc. Each time the Treasury makes those payments it is essentially repaying the SS trust funds dollar for dollar at full face value. The SS trust fund is mandated to buy the Treasury bills with excess funds that are not needed immediately. The US President (even Trump) doesn't have authority over the SSA. It is an independent agency since 1994.

Because you failed to understand how the bankruptcy saved Trump piles of money, which reduced the overhead of the casino. After the bankruptcy it is much easier for the casino to make a profit. Trump's mismanagement had to be followed by a bankruptcy to fix Trump's screwups. Trump made money by avoiding paying for his previous mistakes. It may be correct to state that the pre-bankruptcy losses (that others suffered) would total more than the profit subsequently made.

I reread the @spidermike007 post that contained the quote and link. In that post the Spiderman was not out of his lane... He only quoted the wine publication and then provided the link. Personally, I view wine production/consumption as strictly a luxury so I worry much less about that business niche than those dealing in necessities.

Apparently you know little about bankruptcy. Bankruptcy effectively allowed Trump to cancel a lot of the personal debt he offloaded from himself to the casino. In other words... he got to legally stiff many of those who loaned him money or invested in the casino. Once he had reduced the onerous debt he could operate the casino without having to repay that capital or the attendant interest owed.

you're correct.. he's not on the boat... he missed it and embarrassingly fell in the drink.

Krungsri has functioning facial recognition for foreigners but SCB has better account choices.

He's seeking a desktop.... not a laptop so of course there is no battery to recharge. Since it seems you've already read the specifications, why not share the details of both systems with us. Many of us understand computers very well and can offer better advice if you provide more details. Generally speaking the computer that draws more electricity will be more powerful and faster. You don't seem like you are a heavy computer user so the slower/cheaper one will likely suffice.

yes indeed for the wine biz .... but did you notice they stayed in their lane? The know the wine business and said absolutely nothing about anything outside it. You're just a vapid supporter of this insane administration and are obsessed with criticizing any comment that may vaguely disagree with its policies. Most of us recognize you don't have a lane so you just wander aimlessly from topic to topic.

I think they still elect the actual Government in USA, no? RFK Jr was appointed ... not elected. At best he is supposed to serve as a representative of the gov't.. unfortunately. Plenty of fringe residents appointed by #47.

some posters just love to see their name above a post

All he had to do is stay in his lane... FSD mode could have saved him.... if it worked.

when there are so many numty deniers, all alternatives need consideration

Oh yeah... the Murdoch propaganda machine... the nasty defamers extraordinaire... not shocked they serve as your Gospel. Remember to buy everything they advertise on that channel... the Smartmatic defamation suit is quickly approaching and Fox will need every $ when the gavel comes down. Will it exceed the Dominion settlement of $788M? Maybe they'll confess their sins this time.

Welll..... a deafening silence on your analysis Here's the gist that you have apparently lost: TedG incorrectly stated: 1) that the SS trust funds started to decline in 2010. 2) the Feds are borrowing from themsleves(sic). 3) When the Special T bills are redeemed, the taxpayer has to pay again, or the federal government borrows money to pay back the Department of SS, which adds to the debt and deficit, another expense to the taxpayer 4) Or the money is borrowed by the feds, which adds to the debt and deficit, another expense to the taxpayer. 5) Since 2010, it has been running a cash-flow deficit. TedG is correct in the sense that the FICA taxes alone do not cover the benefits paid since 2010. He chooses to ignore the interest income the trust funds earn which until 2021 was sufficient to cover the shortfall in FICA collection. The shortfall in FICA income is very widely known and I never disputed it. TedG continually states that taxpayers have already paid extra costs because they are dinged for the interest on the special SS Treasury bills purchased by the SS trust fund. He doesn't understand they would have been charged the same interest if any other lender/investor had purchased the Treasury bills required to cover the national debt. So I disagree.... I have not lost any gist. TedG has and now I'm thinking you may have also.

You conceal your empathy for others very well. Not one iota escaped in this post.

LOL... a post so disconnected from reality. Perhaps you would find more a compatible environment on a board discussing fantasies. Scientists are not proposing to attempt to control the climate. They are advising that we should control our impact on the climate. The most laughable claim is that Earth's orbital distance from the sun is decreasing. The facts are that Earth's distance from the sun is gradually increasing. The sun is gradually losing mass so its gravitational hold on the Earth is declining. @Photoguy21, Shirley you've heard of Einstein's most famous equation E=mc². The sun is radiating a huge amount of E which leads to a reduction in m.

Wha?????? As I said before... your reading comprehension is abysmal. You somehow can't parse my very simple and short sentence to arrive at its obvious meaning. Maybe you should take a looooong vacation.
