    Funny how you ignore the events of October 7th where death resulted from gratifications of human lusts.

    Of course you know that is a long "a" in Satin. Lucifer, you are up to your old tricks! Even Mick Jagger knew your name!

    Who says it is their land? Palestinians didn't get there until the 1940s or so when Jordan and other mid-eastern states kicked them out. The Jews have been occupying that land for thousands of years.

    If statistics, selected or not, were economics and reality you might have a point.

    The stock markets making new all time highs is a reflection and the future of the economy.
    It's one of the leading indicators of how the economy is reflected 6-9 months out.
    So there is the economy and reality rolled into one.

    So, I do have a point.

    In fact, 2023 saw a 23% increase. Hopefully you are invested in the markets and not waiting for a R president. Some R's missed the boat during the Obama years when the market nearly TRIPLED and rose 186%.

    ...
    The S&P 500 has risen sharply in recent months, partly fueled by the view the Fed could soon start cutting rates. The index has hit record highs this year, and is up about 4% so far for 2024 after rising 24% in 2023.

    Dude, it really sounds like you need a dictionary. Here you go...Oxford Dictionary for English

    The rest is pure word salad.

    I find it somewhat incredulous that with all the spell checks available on every device we use text, anyone would not take a half second to correct spelling errors. It says more about the poster's education levels than anything else.

    Lucifer you got me! I misspelled Satan and I apologize openly for the insult. I knew better and I will work on it.

    But to your character, Lucifer/ Satan, you are a great accuser. You have attacked my education. Have I mentioned my race?...because I am sure you would attack that also.
    Let me tell you a little about spell check since your education is dimly lit in that area. Satin IS a word. Spell check doesn't recognize it's usage. I do use spell check and I submit to your accusatory correction.

    Dude (that really sounds dudical) You are the one making a word salad out of everything. Do you understand immigration is a legal process and it you avoid the legal process it is illegal? Note: I did spell Satan correctly in the post you just addressed. Find another mode of attack "Lucifer "!

    Do you mean like the months and years just before the crash of 1929???? The stock market in these times is as much a reflection of the billions the Fed keeps pouring into the money system which goes straight to financial institutions which then but tons of stock driving up the price, and not so much fundamentals like private growth and earnings.

    It is absolutely NOT POSSIBLE for October 7th to justify genocide.

    Netanyahu is a war criminal.

    There are huge demonstrations against him in Israel.

    Those lands were not empty.

    And, Jews were not handed the land between the river and the sea.

    In no case does ancient presence override other considerations of national boundaries.

    Corporate tax is only 370billion and is a tax on business which hurts growth and damages revenue in the future. We should have zero corporate tax and increase income tax so that we tax people taking money out of businesses and damaging growth.

    Lastly you downplay the 95billion just to two countries but our entire revenue from corporations is only 350billion and you argue that does make a difference. I don't find this consistent logic. The only reason people like corporate tax is because of emotional reasons. As if they can stick it to the evil corporations... But they only hurt us all by doing so.

    Oct. 7th may not justify genocide, but that event couple with threats to continue those type of events certainly justify the collateral damage to end them! Hamas and their cohorts are not War Criminals?

    Not "collateral damage" - genocide.

    What Israel IS doing absolutely IS genocide.

    When Hamas is gone and Jew haters are taken care of, it will be suppressed. Instead of building tunnels for war and their own genocide of the Jewish race, perhaps those that identify as "Palestinians" will turn to education and the betterment of society.

    Way to go back 100 years to try and tell me I am wrong.
    Have you not invested in the stock market because it crashed in 1929?

    PE ratios are an indication of valuation of the market. They are on the high side at the moment. But the fundamentals of the economy are strong.
    Either the profits will rise and lower PE ratio or they market will pull back. That's how that works.

    A recession will happen again if he gets the POTUS. Just like his last time.

    History shows that this is nonsense. Not only has every president since Coolidge overspent but Trump overspent all of those that preceded him. People want government freebies which are neither free nor in the nation's best interest. Politicians cater to that for votes. Every vote for an incumbent is paid in full.

    The Palestinians were handed some of the land between the river and the sea after Jordan threw them off the land on the other side of the river, in the 1940s of last century. The Jews were never handed anything. They occupied the land for thousands of years having taken it from the nomads who resided there (and elsewhere) countryless. There were times when they were not sovereign or occupied the land when taken over by conquering foes like the Babylonians, the Egyptians, the Romans, and the Ottoman Empire.
    It most certainly does except where might makes right.

    You might like to ask an economist, but I seem to recall COVID panic pushed up Trump expenditure.

    Did you notice the the recent spikes in PE ratios happened when the Fed poured money into the money supply at the 2007-2008 recession, Obama's Quantitative Easing, and Trump's COVID dam breaking, and a notable fundamentals upswing with Regan's and Trump's tax decreases.
