That would be a really great point if Joe Biden held a rally in Washington DC then directed the crowd to attack the Capitol then assured them he'd be right there with them and that they need to "fight like hell."

Other than being wildly completely beyond compare and offering no similarity in scope or context, you're spot-on.
Justice Thomas not lying.

 
These guys fought for their states, because their states were their countries. It is unfortunate that slavery was attached to those states, as it was to some Union states.

The thought that the average dirt farmer put his life on the line for a rich man’s slaves is as one dimensional (and therefore not surprising coming from you) as it gets.
They fought for the rich old men because they were fed a line of BS about defending their states and protecting their honor.
They were manipulated by the wealthy politicians and land owners who wanted to continue having free labor on their plantations with an endless supply of new slave babies born into slavery as workers.
Your right. It wasn't just about slavery....It was about the $$$$$ that slavery afforded them.
Those kids fought for the same reasons every other kid before and after them did....because they were told to.
Same reasons kids were gung ho to fight "Communism" in Vietnam dude.
Power and $$$$$

Its generally agreed by historians that Lincoln provoked the attack so he could spin that it was the south who shot first.
Which historians? And what did Lincoln do to provoke the attack? Attempt to resupply Sumter? South Carolina had already seized the other forts in Charleston by force before Lincoln was even inaugurated. Sumter was just the only one actually being defended.
 
Wrong. It's about treating other human beings like garbage regardless of whether it is for religion, race, gender, disabilities or ethnicity.
The Nazis had multiple reasons for subjugating Jews as did the Confederates for their fight to continue their subjugation of black people.

As I said earlier....It is just as disgusting to advocate for naming high schools in America after Confederate generals as it would be to name schools in Germany after Nazi army generals.

It's real easy for Nazis and traitors to see it another way sadly.
Life is all about perspective.

You.mean like mask and Vax mandates, coronabro?

Shut up, Branch Covidian.

You have no room to speak here about treatment of people. Because you were terrified of a bad cold season.

Village Idiot
 
We are producing oil at record levels under Biden. Not much else he can do.

Will you shut up with this nonsense?

It takes YEARS (for example, Trump opening up ANWR), for those new lands to be searched developed, built out, rigs built etc. Before one drop comes out of the ground.

So, Biden numbers may be good based on what Trump did 5 years ago.

And trumps may have started slower after Obama policies.

But of course, The Village Idiot can't comprehend these types of realities of the real world, as he was an 'educator', as he proudly boasts about.
 
Unless you're planning on spending lots of time studying the market, I'd stick to broad market ETF's or MF's. Odds are (highly?) against beating the market. Matching the market is a good reason to be in it. And I'd put it a Roth IRA account if possible. Best of success to you.

As they say, it's not timing the market, it's time in the market.

Just buy an s&p500 etf and add to it weekly, and let it sit for years.

Go look at any historical chart of the market over time.

Also, another reason The Village Idiot crowing about stock market highs is idiotic, but alas, he's an idiot.
 
Here’s the important part. China doesn’t give a shit what she says. Nor what anyone else says. India doesn’t either. Therefore, we can do what we can within reason to mitigate the damage. I’m all for that. But racking up debt and making it hard for the average american to get by is literally pissing up a rope.
It’s not our role to pick up China and Indias slack. We can’t. Doubling or tripling down here isn’t going to make a bit of difference until they do their part. We aren’t the problem, we never were. We have one of the lowest emissions, yet everyone points to us as the culprits because they don’t want to stand up to those doing far worse. We had huge climate crisis media campaigns highlighted by Greta’s outrage speeches and media appearances, scowling and angry. China got a tweet.

Roth is nice, but limited to how much you can put in yearly.

But the tax free gains when you cash out are pretty nice.

I do both Roth and diversified (26) individual stocks, and SPY.
 
Whatever the situation is with climate change is immaterial to @trueblujr2 being objectively wrong about Greta’s position on China. Doesn’t matter what your personal position is on anything you shouldn’t be making up nonsense to hate your opponent over. Then deflecting when called on it. He needs to do some serious self reflection.
Ok, she made a tweet, I was wrong, are you happy now? How about you compare the benign tweet to all the attention her handlers had her placing on the US.
 
Its generally agreed by historians that Lincoln provoked the attack so he could spin that it was the south who shot first.

That is, if it wasn't just entirely made up in the first place. Someone from the north could easily have fired the shot. Spy or plant. Soldier or civilian. The war was going to happen regardless because outside forces wanted and needed it to happen. The Civil War set a lot of things in motion.

Um, wrong. I don't think that many Americans were Gung ho to go fight the Cong. Thus, the hated draft, guess you never saw any turmoil in the 60's based on that one issue.

Again, Village Idiot.

This is what our education system has expunged over the last 150 years. Understanding is at an all time low since they nationalized "education" in this country.

The difference between all of the unions that became nations across the globe is in the details of HOW they were brought together, but they are ALL unions of individual states/nations/tribes just as all confederacies/nations that unify have been. The economies, borders, and laws of each create a community. People tend to be loyal to them as a general rule, unless they have been conditioned otherwise. The current conditioning, not unlike what was used prior to the Civil War, bolshevik revolution, and "the final solution" of the socialists, is to separate everyone into groups and focus the people on their differences.

Today it's the cities vs the rural areas, and the coasts against the "flyover states." It's the "educated" elite vs the "simple" country folks. They also use manufactured "races" and "classes" to inflame tensions, along with Democrats and Republicans, conservatives and liberals, nationalists and globalists. All so that others with REAL great wealth can move them easily to do what they need in order for them to profit.

The thought that the average dirt farmer put his life on the line for a rich man’s slaves is as one dimensional (and therefore not surprising coming from you) as it gets.

He can't help it, because his neurochemical dependency has been trained since he was a child. It will take a major life change before he'd ever realize how much he's been manipulated and molded into the soft clay doll he's become. But right now his hope, like so many of his ilk, rests in magical thinking. Winning the lottery instead of consistent daily work, coming into some money instead of building a nest egg, and hitting the big time/ becoming a super popular influencer instead of earning trust for the purpose of community benefit. It's programmed from early childhood.

It's all taking advantage of superstitious thinking.

You are absolutely clueless on such a broad range of issues.
63.3% of all V'nam enlisted casualties were volunteer. If ofcrs are added then almost 70% of those who died in V'nam were volunteers.
Large numbers of US troops began entering the field in 1961. It took years after that for the public to become opposed to the conflict. Many young kids were sold on fighting the Commies as a way to get kids signed up and fighting.
Kinda like the kids that volunteered to fight for the South against those slave loving Yankees who wanna free the slaves and ruin their way of life.
Rich old men protecting their $$$$ interests with gullible kids who think they can't die.

You just constantly spout mindless crap with absolutely zero basis in fact or reality.
Facts.....Biden Administration Oil, Gas Drilling Approvals Outpace Trump’s

South Carolina opened fire with 43 guns and mortars, all told. Many of which had just been captured at the other Charleston forts. Operating in sequence, two minutes between shots. We know exactly who fired the first shot, it was even offered to a notable secessionist agitator. That's shot of an artillery gun btw, not a rifle or something. This was not two forces with itchy trigger fingers staring each other down. It was a debated, ordered, and executed full artillery bombardment signed off on by Jefferson Davis himself. Not some false flag or whatever other nonsense you're positing.
 
Meanwhile Trumplicans parrot lies Trump tells them that the economy is terrible even though every objective measure says the exact opposite.
The economy is booming under Biden.

Good job, Joe. Price everybody out of a meal. Let them eat cake.

The vast majority of every dollar that goes to Washington is a total waste.

Yet the Biden admin has promised to raise taxes on everyone to take more money from the middle class to spread around to their overlords.

In this environment, continuing to raise taxes and increase spending is so stupid, no one could possibly think it’s a good idea unless you’re on the receiving end of the grift and want to get your piece before the golden goose dies.

We know Biden will continue to be terrible for tax and spending policy. Maybe Trump will be better on one or both (if he doesn’t fall for a pandemic hoax this time).
 

This is something we discuss regularly here because it's true. The dem party located a powerful vein of misfit people who always felt shunned and gave them a "family" and a cause. That's why most wacko libs look like they do.

Especially so for young people. Young people have the intense desire to be part of something. Libs target that part of their psychology and have for years. That's why nearly every young person is a lib. It's also something Reagan called out years ago during riots and Stanford.

Had to wait an hour outside of Texas Roadhouse last night in order to get in and stand another 15 minutes to get seated. All the restaurants around there were packed to the gills.
Red Lobster and TGI Fridays have been struggling for years because they serve overpriced crappy food.
Try driving to Louisville, Nashville, Bowling Green or Lexington on a Friday or Saturday night at 6 pm and walking into a good sit down restaurant.
Good luck with that!
Been to the Greenwood Mall in Bowling Green on a weekend lately?
Been to Nashville any day of the week?
Derby infield was completely full with thousands of people who paid 130 bucks to stand in a field drinking 15 dollar beers.
Most people are fine. They just like to bitch.
Facts....

Biggest difference between the protests of the 60’s and the protests of today. Those kids had some skin in the game. They didn’t want to be drafted to fight in a war we didn’t belong in.

Didn’t Joe or Kamalatoe say something about how we should save by eating cereal for dinner?

They all want us to keep lowering our standards more and more until we’re a nation of renters living in tiny apartments owned by Blackrock, eating ramen noodles.

Basically China.
