    How ironic that an ebullient State of the Union Speech may well mark the start of the collapse of the stock market.
    Trump may try to manage debt, but history shows he does not do it well.

      Two or is it three bankruptcies?

      This is a much more important time. I hope and pray that he gets solid advice and that he takes that solid advice to hear.

        4 bankruptcies.

    Hey Al, our Rye Patch has soared from 15 cents to a buck. We is rich!

      Remember the reverse stock split. I still think that Bill took the correct action and his shareholders will benefit.

    Trump CAN’T make peace with the “other side”; the system is far too polarized.

    But aren’t we lucky that Doc told him at Davos to cut back on his tweets!

    Are you really paranoid, if “they” really out to get you?

      Jan 30, 2018 30:55 PM

      Paranoid implies one thing very different from knowing the correctness of a situation.

      I have to say that, at least in my mind, the President brings a lot of it on himself. He would be a lot smarter to realize his strength and disregard much of the minutia and small talk. In many cases all he has to do is to “consider the source”

      If he is the man that I thought he was when I cast my ballot, he will do just fine. The question remains, “is he that man?” All i can say is that I truly hope that he is.

      Good thing that you are not a retired English teacher. (And, I don’t mean English Literature!)

    Sad Trumpet gets to hear himself and praise himself ——– his favorite thing. pray for sanity S

    Off topic:

    Since it’s the time of year for college applications, this may be of interest. White Americans suffer dramatic racial discrimination when it comes to admission to America’s top universities.

    In fact, all groups seem to be disadvantaged in general, except for one, which enjoys a dramatic advantage over all others.

      Good topic , for the Whites in America to explore……reverse discrimination

        Absolutely, Jerry.

        The reality is dramatically different than what the mass media presents. But, of course, the mass media is a key tool of covert cultural warfare.

          Harvard is a good example, ……they like the chinese student’s extra out of state money…
          I was posting some of that last year, …..The chinese are not that much smarter than Americans, they just pay more to get into the University….

        Jan 30, 2018 30:22 PM

        Some of the reverse discrimination , started at Michigan Un….about 15 yrs ago…..if, my memory serves me correctly…..White were complaining then, about the black athletes , getting scholarships over the academics scholars…….

          Jan 30, 2018 30:24 PM

          I guess Michigan State will have a hard time now attracting jocks for their sports program ,,for awhile……

          Affirmative action is racism.

            Jan 30, 2018 30:44 PM

            We will explore the default rate later…….on student loans…….

            Jan 30, 2018 30:32 PM

            Common Jerry, you know as well as I do that this is absolutely nothing new and a lot depends on the source.

            Jan 30, 2018 30:34 PM

            Well, of course it is GH. A bit of a different context however.

      From an economic perspective, the admissions process at the top universities ensure American competitive decline. This is a serious long-term issue, if the matter is not addressed.

        Jan 30, 2018 30:18 PM

        see my note above………

      Jan 30, 2018 30:06 PM

      Says something about the Jewish and the Asian kids! Know what GH? I am not even close to being surprised!

        Jan 30, 2018 30:58 PM

        I’m not sure you understood the graphic, Al.

        The right-hand column normalizes admissions by academic performance, and it shows that Jewish kids are wildly over-privileged in their admission to the top universities, while Asians are discriminated against.

          BTW, the author of the above linked essay, ‘The Myth of American Meritocracy’, is a Jewish alum of Harvard, whose high intelligence is readily apparent from his writing.

          He documents a dramatic collapse in Jewish academic performance over the last few decades.
