  • Sounds like he was one of the sharpest bulbs, so to speak.

    I am still reeling at talking to someone that not only said we can now say “Merry Xmas” again, thanks to Taco (WTAF?!!!), and said it with not even a whiff of irony. While I was still laughing, he said he hopes that Taco will be able to fix the terrible Biden economy.

    This guy is not suffering in the slightest. His wife pays for most everything, and he has steady work. Fixed mortgage. Maybe there was a slight uptick here in inflation, even if it was lower than so many other countries. This guy didn’t feel it. But he was standing there and telling me right while Taco was wiping about 20% out of my savings due to cratering the market and thus everyone’s 401K, that Taco was going to “fix” this so-called terrible economy of Biden’s.

    Straight the fuck outta 1984. And I know people say “the financial markets are not the economy”, but they are HIGHLY correlated, so that dog won’t hunt. If the market crashes, people don’t care about the S&P are still going to be affected.
