"I" am speaking pointedly to the assertion toward corporate greed, you are correct that it is this point on which I am refuting your position, and you seem to object to this......rather than defend it..... If I might....consider defending the assertion I am refuting instead of meandering around it.

So then , you still do not yet understand that this is purely policy, not greed..... I mean, if you want to believe that trite nonsense, by all means. But rest assured, the market will behave the same way the next time, because bad policy requires business adjustment.

The issue is not greed, it is poor policy. Not that complex. You should resist the lies of politicians as they are only interested in your subjugation through misrepresentation..don't give them the satisfaction of manipulating you so easily.

U.S. banks on brink of collapse? $517 billion losses threaten 63 banks

As more defaults transpire, which is to say as more people reach the limits of credit availability and inflation forces more people to focus on survival they will just stop paying the debt. As this transpires, the banks will respond to the losses by making credit more difficult to acquire and the interest on loans will increase and the ability of the banks to lend will be more limited.... Now, this hits the poor and lower middle class with intensity. For the rest of us we handle it a little better. But not entirely, as people discovered in 2008. The immediate need is to let the Fed do their job and do nothing to contribute to inflation, but we already know the current administration does not give a fock. -
I think each of us should have a line or place where we dig our heels in and say enough....and each of us should decide that for ourselves. That being said, I served to protect speech and displays that might be offensive, rather than censorship. Where people have bad ideas, I say we allow competing ideas to also have a forum. I have always trusted in people to make the right choice, though I will allow that of late I am losing that trust.

Later, as more and more people are unable to sustain an existence in this economy they will stop paying more and more of their obligations to the banks; this was the death stroke in 2005-2008 as well. As the banks begin to fail, cost of borrowing will continue to rise.....and available credit will shrink....and more people will start to stop paying....then, the government will bail out those banks. Inflation.....is a nefarious evil.... -

You are the only one bringing "feelz", I am the one that sourced....so you assertion here is not entirely authentic. I think you should reconsider your position on those with disabilities, they are great people who have alot to offer. -

I am saddened by your perception of people. I think when you look at people you should restrain from considering them in such a negative light. People with disabilities are capable of considerable value, I employ them and I they are often fantastic employees. -

You insertion of "IQ" has no bearing here. Making good decisions is possible even for those you assume are incapable of such an action. I do not think people are so stupid as you do. -

It's a little disheartening to read people who think so poorly of people. -

You fail to see the nuance, which makes sense since you also fail to understand how perverting the labor market creates problems....but it does add up for you. -

I stump for no corporation, but I will explain how it works. Its not that complex. Later, when it arises that enough harm is applied we will potentially observe the same situation we recently noted in Portland....where they come back and admit they were wrong, but not before they harm alot of people. -

I do not paint, a legitimate study was conducted that provided three simple decisions. Life is not that complex, we make decisions every day and if we make good ones our lives our better. You lack the acumen to honestly discuss this topic. -

According to Brookings there are actually three simple decisions that lead to the avoidance of poverty, I think starting with those is a great place. Past that there are certainly other decisions that will need to be made to sustain ones place, and perhaps improve it over time. -

And this logical fallacy is called the appeal to extremes. You want to trot out some example as a proof for the totality, and this is how bad decisions arise...... -

Its just a deflection away from the actual topic.....forcing labor costs up with have a commensurate action on the part of business to offset that increase, plain and simple. -

Biden to announce drastic border action on Tuesday

Obama did separate children from families, but the policy was just ramped up under Trump. IMHO it was a fantastic strategic move to hopefully dissuade more from coming, but I think it may have in the end not worked. In fact, I think it illuminated to the human traffickers a way to make more money, which is why we see so much more trafficking today.... -

Most people are born without that ability, but they have other gifts. I think it is just fine that people gifted with special abilities rise as far as they can.
