Right? It feels so good to be out from under their thumb. It is annoying when people send me intriguing Reddit links. I’m not opening them

It’s so funny how this is a thing. Like other countries basically say “yeah fuck our citizens, just do what you want” for the whole world to see.

Time for the free hand of the market to molest some redditors!

Remember, it’s for private profit, so as an American, it’s your duty to enjoy it.

I’m curious how long and how far it’ll go before the pendulum finally shifts. When central banks cut rates?

There is no pendulum. We’re on the train to hell.
