🚨 We are one step closer to banning members of Congress from trading stocks.

The discharge petition will need 218 members' signatures to bring it to the House floor, but this is progress!

No, we don't want "free" healthcare.

We want universal healthcare paid for by our taxes that covers everyone and leaves no one bankrupted and sick.

This isn’t difficult to comprehend.

Why this isn't just "AI bubble pops, startups fail, move on"

The Perpetual Motion Machine In Reverse

On the way up:

ZIRP β†’ Yen carry trade profitable
Carry trade β†’ Private credit boom
Private credit β†’ AI speculation fundable
AI speculation β†’ NVIDIA/tech stocks soar
Tech stocks β†’ Collateral for MORE carry trades

Perpetual motion: Each layer feeds the next

On the way down:

AI hype slows β†’ Valuations questioned
Valuations drop β†’ Private credit loans underwater
Private credit defaults β†’ Lenders demand redemptions
Redemptions β†’ Must unwind carry trades
Yen carry unwind β†’ Yen strengthens, dollar assets sold
Dollar assets sold β†’ Tech stocks crater
Tech stocks crater β†’ Collateral vanishes
Collateral vanishes β†’ Margin calls cascade

Anti-perpetual motion: Each layer accelerates the next DOWN

Graham Platner sounds like a bullshitter.

My experience with bullshitters has been terrible. Bullshitters tend to be lazy, unserious liars who promise the world and never deliver.
