Comment Re:who cares about debt? (Score 1) 237

The only issue that debt, low taxation and deficit spending cause is a lack of belief in the value of the fiat currency,

And the accumulating interest on that debt which needs paid off? That's not a consideration? You must be one of those who only pays the minimum amount on their credit card debt each month.

People who do intermittent fasting are 91% more likely to die of heart disease, among other issues.

As for everything else, only daily exercise has been shown to have any true effect. No, Vitamin B does not reverse aging in cells. Red light therapy only treats skin conditions. It does nothing for reversing aging. The paleo diet has been shown to be wrong. Early humans did not eat lots of meat simply for the fact they didn't get that much. Most of what early humans ate were bugs (protein) and veggies. Nothing found so far can do anything what you're claiming, particularly reversal of cognitive ability, eye-sight, or hair-color.

Would you like to shill some more?

Though the anti tax people despire medicare despite them all loving the hell out of it once they're retired.

I am nearing retirement age and am not looking forward to handing over thousands of dollars every year for something I won't use. Over the decades of my work I've lost well over $100,000 paying for something I haven't used. Why should I do the same thing in retirement?

Fauci worked for the government for decades and started out with the Reagan administration.

You have to understand, Dr. Fauci spent his entire life waiting for the moment he could annoy the MAGA cult with how the scientific process works. It was his triumphal moment. Forget all the research he's done. Forget the papers he's written. Forget all the experiene he's accumulated over the decades. Everything led to the triumphal moment he got people to wear a mask for a few minutes once a day just to annoy them.

There needs to be a way for the average American to become a shareholder so they can benefit from the business too.

There is. It's called buying stock in a company. No one says you have to buy 100 shares of a company in one shot. You can buy 1 or 2 each month and make sure to reinvest any dividends.

Why are you so fixated on 2020?

When the orange goon and his cohorts stop whining about a "stolen" election in 2020, then everyone else will. Until then, they're the ones who keep bringing it up.

Democrats have been screeching about stolen elections since 2000. ?

No, they haven't. No Democrat has been "screeching" about "stolen" elections. None. No one is out there every day claiming that in any shape or form. In fact, the ONLY time the issue was raised of irregularities, Republicans immediately went to court to prevent any vote recount by stating there were no evidence of fraud. And yet, four years later, that is all Republicans talk about. All the "fraud" they claim existed yet have shown absolutely zero evidence for it. In fact, when asked point blank by judges if their multitude of lawsuits were about voter fraud, every single time the answer was no.

When you're done with your lying, let us know.

This is exactly what Tesla did for years. In addition to getting billions of dollars in socialist payments from the taxpayer, the company used regulatory credits to keep itself going. It didn't make money on its poorly designed vehicles.

Ford does not have the luxury of using those same credits so its numbers are more reflective of the cost to start up an EV car company.
