    Lol you keep believing that it’s a conspiracy theory. When the Dems win in 2024 with inflation crushing America even people like you won’t be able to deny it.

    Which btw I’ve also said multiple times

    The counts are still going on, but that is when the “funny business” happens.
    We need the company who runs the lottery - the two billion dollar winner one - to run our election systems and rebuild security in elections, but who would buy into that headache.

    Lol helps me cope? Your position is just ridiculous.

    Essentially all the polls and all the betting was saying republicans were going to slap the Dems around. Why would I make a prediction to “help me cope” when all indicators were the republicans were going to win big?

    Unless of course I was making an accurate prediction based upon the actions of the democrats. A prediction WHICH, by the way, CAME TRUE lol

    Perhaps something that will allowing fright shipping to have better ease of access to the land. As I understand it, there's a logjam in the current supply system mucking things up.

    You wanna make a bet on that?

    The inflation has been caused by a gross amount of overprinting of money and absurdly high levels of government stimulus. Combined with an artificially low interest rate which they MUST bring up above the rate of inflation and they’re not even REMOTELY close lol

    Which means it’s only going to get worse. Because the ONLY way to stop out of control inflation is to get your interest rates above the rate of inflation. The rate of inflation if calculated in 1980 terms is sitting at 18%. Which means if they want to stop it, interest rates have to go above 18%. Which will absolutely destroy the market.

    But if they don’t do that hyper inflation will occur and the country is ****ed. The consequences of which will make a crashing market and 1929 look like tea time with Mr Rogers

    what kinda bill would address that?

    we have a grain issue due to droughts, that will even affect cattle, it's gonna get bad, stock up on can food.... add the bird flu overseas and we are gonna have a food shortage

    Trump's deal to sell more grain to China is not helping

    I think there should be an investigation into early voting. Which role does the state use to mail out ballots to prospective voters? If it's the voter role, I suspect state voter fraud because it's been my experience that state voter roles are far from accurate.

    .I mean, for example, why would the people of Pennsylvania vote in 'Sling Blade' (Fetterman) instead of a practicing doctor (Oz)?

    Like the majority of voters, the most important factor is the letter next to the name (d or r).

    Lol your delusional point of view doesn’t change the facts.

    In fact some liberal responded to one of my posts regarding that prediction with saying something to the effect of, “if that happens then something fishy is going on”. He was right. And so was I.

    Like the dems from 2016-2020?

    I mean, the voting is the only democracy in our American republic. When there is closeness or the appearance of shenanigans in a vote result, why not investigate the results for the sake of democracy (the only democracy us Americans have)???Or do you, I suspect, care about who wins rather than democracy???I know the neo-fascist Liz Cheney, for example, cares more about election results than democracy.

    Btw I don’t even know what you’re talking about. I’m happy with the outcome. Its working out exactly like I said would be best for republicans. Win the house but don’t win the senate.

    I’m happy lol unfortunately there’s still a chance the republicans could win the senate. So I’m hoping that’s not the case. We need the Dems to retain control of the senate by one seat.

    Trump raised the debt more than any other President ever in 4 years, in fact Trump raised it almost as much in 4 years as Obama did in 8

    republicans think making Americans poorer is the answer?

    So, what that Trump raised the debt tremendously. I mean, our military was in shambles and middle-class jobs needed to be shipped back to America (due to free market capitalism BS), for examples.

    I think Roe vs Wade and Trump galvanized the democrat voters. Time to ditch Trump, push DeSantis with Gabbard as a running mate and push Republican led states to ease off of abortion restrictions. You cant go full ban with that. It's something you have to nudge.

    Disappointed. At least we got the house. Forcast is another 2 years of finiacial downturn and racially divisive hell...

    There's only 1 federal election. And it's held every 4 yrs.
    How the heck can we have a fed election, when it's a rare occurrence?
    I don't think the constitution will allow a 1 size fits all federal election that only happens 1x every 4 yrs. States elect their representatives for their own states, not for some national governence.

    Raising the debt has nothing to do with the conversation.

    There is one way and ONE WAY ONLY to deal with out of control inflation. That is to raise your interest rates above the rate of inflation. That’s why we had interest rates at 22% in the 1980’s. Because inflation was at 18%. They tackled that by jacking up interest rates.

    Well right now we are sitting at 17% inflation if calculated in 1980 terms. See for yourself:

    http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/inflation-charts

    However our interest rates aren’t even remotely close to 18%. Which means rather than stabilize or decrease from this point forward (as it did in the 1980’s), inflation will continue to climb while they move interest rates above 20%. And this government and federal reserve have shown no indications of pushing our interest rates that high.

    And if they **** around and don’t raise interest rates high enough and you get inflation which climbs to 25% or higher then hyper inflation is INEVITABLE, no matter what they do. Because there is a diminishing rate of returns on raising interest rates. Once you raise them past a certain point (usually 20-25%) then pretty much everyone who might want a loan will no longer get one because the interest is too high. So raising interest above 25% does not gain you the same impact as it was doing before.

    Which means that the ONLY tool we have of raising interest rates to battle inflation will be useless because inflation is too high.

    Don’t worry. If you live in the US you’re going to find that out first hand.

    https://www.270towin.com/2022-election-results-live/state/alaska#house

    So here's a real-time example of the real problems in our voting system. The Alaskans are running TWO Republicans to one Democrat. And we saw this before in 2016 where splintered voting favors the candidate going against multiple competitors. The R's have split the vote, and thus the Democrat is going to win this race. Not cheating, just stupid.
