    Actually Hong Kong and maybe other SEA  visitors to Thailand wore masks well before the Covid outbreak

    Perhaps as  many as 30 % of BTS carriage occupants were masked. This was probably due to   SARS outbreak.


    Why is this misinformation perpetuated so much?  Even supposed forum health experts have claimed this.  I find it mind boggling.
     

    No. No they didn’t. Period.

     

    Thais rarely wore masks unless it was a woman who had a recent chin/nose job.

    OK, maths is going wrong. How much USD to give 70 million Thais Bht 10,000 each


    Your “add 3 zeros” is the correct answer.

     

    $21,800,000,000

     

    I always laugh when people say “take the money from the rich and redistribute it to the poor.

     

    But….the net worth of the rich isn’t liquid as it’s mostly stocks, property etc…not cash.   
     

    If you could take all the money from the billionaires in Thailand, each Thai would get about $1000.

     

    Now those billionaires have nothing.  A leftists wet dream.  But they also closed all their businesses.   How many jobs were lost?

    Trump is an absolutely horrific negotiator, and one can see that fully on display now. When you give away the talking points of a negotiation prior to sitting down at the table you have failed. There is a 0% chance of success once you do that, and any decent negotiator knows that. The man could negotiate his way out of a paper bag to save his own life. The United States is now dependent upon this creep for to defend itself.

    Prior to the election all of his supporters knew that he adored dictators and despots and he had a lack of affection for democratically elected leaders, but did anybody guess that it would be this bad, so soon? 

     

    The death and destruction is only beginning, give Trump another year or two and those who supported him will begin to understand the very nature of the man, and the staggering extent of his deception, malice, evil and corruption.

    Trump is a clear and present danger to the security of both the United States and the Free World and he must be stopped. The Senators and Congress members of his own party and the Democratic party must stand up and defend freedom and rational thinking, against this insane goon. 

     

    From some of his speeches during the campaign:

     

    I will address inflation, I will bring the price of food down, I will make America affordable again. False. He has not even made the slightest effort to address inflation.

     

    I will solve the Ukraine crisis. I will get both parties to the table and I will get this resolved prior to my inauguration, if I am president elect it will happen quickly. False. The opposite has occurred. He is bowing down to Putin's dictates and making Zelensky into enemy number one. What a buffoon.

    Talking of donuts...in the thread about incentives for Thai's  to get "jabbed"

    It’s amazing what the more porcine among us will do for a donut.   There was even a “vaccinated donut” t-shirt that jab enthusiasts could buy.

    Again.  It’s ฿ not B.

     

    Once again.  I’m really not concerned with what mudbloods think of my views on Covid.

    Not overweight! Not even a little bit! Cardio is one of my daily routines.

    But look, you got 50B coming your way Airalee, if you can conjure a single comment that shows any intelligence at all

     

    Otherwise the fat that seems to make you cringe, lies btwn your ears. 

     


    what’s 50B?   Is that Baht?  It is written this way.  ฿50

     

    I have heard that Covid lowers people’s IQ.

     

    How many times have you had it?

     

    Oh….and please….while you’re at it, can you tell me about the “healthy children” who have died from it?

    " The fat doctor" happens to be a friend of a friend and in real life he's not fat, it's an unflattering photo. 

    He also has an M.Sc as well as an M.D. and is an Associate Professor at Chulalongkorn Uni, specialising in public health. 

     

    Can I ask, what are your medical qualifications? ( and while we're at it, what's your BMI?) And are you aware of the complications of long COVID, and the exponential damage that repeat infections case? It's *not* 'flu. 

    Enough with the body positivity movement.   He’s fat.  
     

    Long Covid is a theory.  I’ll go with what Dr Redfield says. 

     

    Repeat infections?   I hear about those primarily from vaccinated people.  
     

    I still haven’t had Covid.

     

    Trying to discredit me by asking me my medical qualifications is so passé.

    Doctors should??

    What are you a child?

    Doctors work is to apply their knowledge to benefit others.

    If they themselves live lives that are physically pristine, so be it

    But in the real world, it is what it is.

     

    Your insults and your refusal to say anything of substance underscore the ignorance you seem so proud to showcase.

    Have you considered anger management?

     


    You sound vaxxed.

     

    Are you also overweight?

    Wow! Do you listen to yourself? What does being fat have to do with a doctor's knowledge about his field of study?                                                                                                                                  You seem not to understand, intentionally so. They're not announcing an epidemic...yet! But an uptick in numbers.                                                                                                                                      Can you see the difference. You might try doing your thinking with your brain and not with your fat!

    Doctors should set an example for others.

     

    Your opinion means nothing to me.

     

    Now go exercise and try not to be fat.  Covid kills more fat people than thin.

     

    Don’t forget your boosters.

    It's important not to confuse the AAA ratings by the credit agencies with the Alt-A and other credit score ratings by FICO.  A-minus is traditionally defined as mortgage borrowers with a FICO score of below 660 while Alt-A is traditionally defined as loans lacking full documentation or with alternative documentation of ability to repay . This not the same as a A rating by the credit agencies.

    Oh….sure….that’s a given.

     

    Agree with everything else that you say.

     

    Wouldn’t it be interesting to have some sort of way of peering into the (supposedly) Quadrillion dollar global derivatives market?

    That's a good point, the rating agencies were highly complicit and instrumental in causing the sub-prime mortgage crisis because they peppered Cayman Islands vehicles that were newly created just to hold mortgage backed securities  with AAA ratings.

     

    Nothing to do with the fact that the investment banks paid the rating agencies' humongous fees, I'm sure.

     

    Worked out great for the world economy in 2008.


    I gave your post a thumbs up but would like to point out one small detail.

     

    You mentioned “subprime”.

     

    Subprime was the diversion….the scapegoat.

     

    Alt-A and Prime borrowers had the exact same loans (option-ARMs, Stated Income, etc) offered so no matter the credit score (which is what is used to designate subprime, prime, etc), the loans were destined to fail.  It was a mathematical certainty.

     

    The housing bubble bloggers used the below charts from Credit Suisse to time their shorts.

    True - one would hope they've upped there game - but I don't hear them described as partisan as some suggest -  even if one party in their organisation has somewhat of a political background. There own statement indicates it is a long term problem so now lets see Trump the great fixer fix it. Or not. 


    i wasn’t referring to partisanship in any way.  But you can see in the post above yours how the extreme left bring politics into it and seem to have conveniently forgotten how all the ratings agencies were held captive and subsequently gave AAA ratings to all the toxic mortgage securities.

     

    Invest accordingly I suppose?

    Wow. You totally and utterly destroyed him.

     

    Did you know he is using this forum  to spew hate by stealing others thoughts because he has a business hardon for Trump dating back 40 plus years from NYC? Guess he will find somewhere else to spew.

    It’s hilarious when we have so many of these leftist posters who either poach their stuff from other peoples pages (of course, sans attribution) or they just have a few dozen paragraphs saved on their computer to cut and paste.

     

    They don’t seem to realize how stupid it makes them look.

    I think that in the second Trump term he’s changed that very quickly. Not just by taking America’s soft power and setting it on fire in all sorts of ways, but really making these abrupt decisions that are going to kill hundreds of thousands and maybe more than a million people and he’s doing it in this incredibly arbitrary, careless way.

     

    Trump is destroying the US economy one step at a time. It could be intentional. It could be diabolical. Nobody knows. He could simply be unhinged or following the dictates of a very sinister cabal. 

     

    One thing is certain. He is accomplishing very little, he will NOT bring manufacturing back to America, which is stupid over priced (I am here now and inflation is raging at 20% or higher right now), he is causing alot of pain, he is losing support, destroying businesses, and consumer confidence, he does not have a coherent plan, and he is a destructive nimwit. 

     

    I don’t think he has a coherent value structure as most of us understand it. I think we’re seeing a president who’s operating without anything any of us would recognize as a conscience. Truly.

     

    It is about showing what he can get away with. It’s about showing his enemies that what they support, he can tear down. It is all about displays of brute strength. He gets off on that, and in that sense, it seems not so much an autocracy but a flexocracy. Let me show you how I can flex my bicep as I use it to power my fist coming into your face.
