Do you shout a lot in real life too or just online? Do you find all caps helps drive your point home or are you just attracted to big letters, stylistically speaking? I have so many questions..... :)

Holy cow that is a lot of question marks

America should have safety nets and all those other things. We can debate how the government goes about these things, but most people understand it is not at all a reflection of socialism. They're just the kind of things a wealthy country should be doing.

I didn't quite understand all of that but think you're saying you disagree?

That the uncertainty is greater than any time in their careers. So many moving parts, so many possible outcomes. Unlike Venezuela this is a real choke point in global supply so $200 or even $300 oil is possible, but so is the opposite. Rather than making one-way bets on how this turns out...

Could not agree more Mike, for both of them. No upside to that approach at all

When you talk to people who really know the oil market (those that live and die by the bets they make every day) you realize how little most of us understand it all. The pundits on TV are especially absurd, those guys don't know their arse from their elbow.

Oh boy, he's definitely got a bit of the Star Wars conventioner in him. Could be worse though. If you've ever seen a group of Japanese businessmen bombed on Saki you know what I mean :)

Thank you Avocado. The short answer is that I hate it. It's awful that your government asks citizens to suffer while they steal. I also think it's very small-minded of them, but I saw the same thing in China when they were emerging after decades of communism. Even some of the successful...

Thanks but I'll pass. I live in the real world.

I'm sure it is very frustrating to see him gallivanting around the world while people are struggling at home. Just remember that Argentina has a lot of liabilities coming due the next few years and needs outside help to deal with it. Eliminating deficits was a great start but it does nothing...

AI queries produce some interesting stuff but in this case it's trying to compare apples and orangutans. The US economy vs Argentina is like comparing an obese patient to one with stage 4 leukemia. You also get wildly different results from different AI models and whether you're using the free...

That's exactly right Mike, I have similar stories and you had to live here to witness some of the insanity of the Biden years. The media tried to cover for him but voters knew better and the election was a blowout. 100%

That has been my experience as well. The Democratic Party used to care about people, now it's dominated by lunatics and non-contributors.

I appreciate you fellows wading into this. It's like talking to a wall when people view their political position as moral vs immoral. Very similar with the tax dodgers, and they're often one and the same. I know a fellow who owes the IRS a ton of money and refuses to pay his debts or even his...

Well, just now I learned that your personality is a bit less flexible than the one you project through your writings

By the sounds of it I doubt we would agree on much so probably best not to argue about it online. Next visit to BA I'd happily buy you a beer and have a proper political discussion. I have friends all over the political map and learn a lot from those chats.

Ha! I hear you but I would still make the same choice all day long. Harris was a terrible candidate for President and Walz as her running mate just made it farcical. Neither of them had any business operating at that level of politics and leadership. The two of them together would have been...

Which floor are you buying Johnny, just curious :)

Good lord
