allocating your own resources is fine

Like, steve jobs can buy stocks from his own company, or Jezz Bezos or whatever, and it's not really damaging

people being stupid on the stock market is, well, stupid

you can't directly fix stupid

Also, it benefits the companies, as they're able to then retain more earnings, perhaps later investing in research to cure the next disease your grandmother contracts. Who knows? That's none of your business what they do with it, anyway.

no matter what idiots like Plato and Marx say

I'm not really concerned about a few businesses buying their own stocks and it's not really a problem,but nayways, things are generally improving

As far as culture goes, thankfully we have someone who is not a far-left ideologue in power, such as Trump, which should also help with that

more and more people are waking up to this stuff

Trump is an 80s Democrat

Hollywood's shitty movies are backfiring, working against the left-wing narrative

he's pretty centrist

no-one likes star wars anymore

Like, people are realizing how SJW stuff ruins everything

it's like advertising that you are the bad guy, it's backfiring

sort of

Normies are starting to wise up the cultural problems generated by the far left

essentially

but dont get delusions of grandeur

So culture is improving as well

it isn't improving *that* much

I mean we are still going to be in this for the long haul, but things are generally improving

it's still very slow yes

slower than you'd think with Trump actually doing some good things

like with the economy

the far left is insane, granted, that doesn't make the equivilant opposite any saner

But that's the media for you

Trump is far more reasonable than the left, even if you disagree with various things by him

It's almost kind of funny

I'd like to see further deregulation, perhaps some subsidies for automated manufacturing.

Being a moderate he should be able to win over the left, and he would have problably like Reagan if it wasn't for the overwhelming push by the media

He's already cut the federal registry from some 96k pages under Obama to about 50k.

Reagan.... the man who formulated the grand lie of "trickle down" economics

not a great comparison, tbh

Because Clinton's domain bubble, with an unregulated tech industry, proves his policies were any better?

😂

but being fair, Reagan was an actor, and wouldn't have known better

Oh clinton made it worse, that's not in dispute

That's the only reason the budget was balanced under Clinton, by the way.

We had a budget surplus, in fact.
