Fed was starting to shrink the balance sheet, Trump brow beat them until they started expanding it again, QE4 baby, i traded that

along with the rate cut

that trend of workers' share of gdp is scary, and the turn around that was happening 'under Obama' seems like it will start declining since the tax cuts are and gov deficit growth isn't being paired with any real populist gov spending

```The U.S. government’s budget deficit ballooned to nearly $1 trillion in 2019, the Treasury Department announced Friday, as the United States’ fiscal imbalance widened for a fourth consecutive year despite a sustained run of economic growth. The deficit grew $205 billion, or 26 percent, in the past year.

The country’s worsening fiscal picture runs in sharp contrast to President Trump’s campaign promise to eliminate the federal debt within eight years. The deficit is up nearly 50 percent in the Trump era. Since taking office, Trump has endorsed big spending increases and steered most Republicans to abandon the deficit obsession they held during the Obama administration.```

usually gov incomes soar during boom times

@Sh0t sup. What you trying to show here?

Btw Taleb is oddly a trump supporter thinking he is somehow reallocating risk. Very odd conclusion to otherwise sound economic thinking

Just looking at the macro trends in general, the initial one was a subtle counter-narrative to the Trump economy porpaganda

What's your thoughts on taleb

one of the greatest living philosophers for sure, in my book

So you support Trump but admit most of his talk on the economy is propaganda, yeah?

I guess I dont see his point A to B but if hes a great philosopher...

I don't support him, I take the individual policies and judge them, but I dislike the 'extracurricular' activity

Judging policy is great and all but end of the day you have to vote D or R

I didn't vote either last time

I voted for McMullin

Right

Ok

Curious

What state do you live in?

I have property in several states, 1 liberal, 2 conservative

You voted 3 times illegally?

Wow

nope

That's what I'm asking

What state do you reside

<:insane:583662104821760022>

I guess it's hard to square the circle here. I'm asking you specifically about "one of the greatest living philosophers of our time" and your response is to tell me you wasted your vote and you own property

But i guess someone who supports an investment banker for president shouldnt be taken too seriously. I'm sure you think your property values prove something
