They missed 1929, when real GDP surged 20%. SPX rallied 50% during the 12 months before the September 1929 crash, which ushered in the Great Depression. It was epic mal-investment in banking, property, and rail back then. And wealth inequality on a similar scale to now. Roaring 20's.

An idea to make it even better: coordinate with southern Wisconsin to facilitate tie-in to Madison area, which has a booming economy, but no rail connection to Chicagoland.

Maybe aggrieved X-accounts are visiting these social platforms (IG, BlueSky, Threads, etc) but minding their manners, unlike over on the portal formerly known as Twitter? I mean, they probably secretly enjoy watching PBS, Netflix, YouTube music content, etc., hating has to get old after a while.

This makes a lot of sense. I can envision using such novel thinking to unleash demand for treasuries, should the need for such demand ever arise. Eg 40% of homes have no mortgages, could structure a way for these homeowners to hypothecate equity to buy gov't debt.

A third of the electorate considers themselves forsaken. They're filled with rage, capable of God only knows what attrocities toward "others" "them". It is our solemn duty to vote to mercifully stop the madness before it's too late, not repeat the mistake the German electorate made in 1928.

Much of the American electorate is completely devoid of empathy. 250,000 Iraqis died violently circa 2003-2011 when the country was "liberated." 2 million people were displaced from their homes, a million orphaned kids. America just shrugged then, too. Sad as hell.

Fingers crossed project 2029 has an MMT element. Would be a nice 50-year bookend to 1979-80.

Ok if I nominate you to head this effort, Warren? You'd make a great Fed chairman, too, but I suspect this is right in your wheelhouse:

absolutely not.
and it’d be quite an indictment of this plan *even without* recent disclosures; is there a single person who has said as much, as loudly, for as long as this man without even accidentally stumbling into an original or interesting insight — much less actually push policy *forward*?

NEW: Before the recent Epstein disclosures, Larry Summers was poised to lead the economic policy plank for the Democrats' "Project 2029" effort at the Center for American Progress. He signed off on a housing policy paper CAP was prepping for next week.

Don't underestimate the power that young women are having on these young men. Many women are really turned off by the Red hats. If I'm a young man and the only thing holding back a young woman's love is a 5 hat, the hat is going in the garbage. pronto.

Venezuela = low hanging fruit in effort to thwart China's momentum in South America?
stick: militaristic USA nation building.
carrot: NAFTA on steroids, including any/all SA nations that want in.
Alas, American voters were too busy focusing on homemade propaganda as China built out belt & road.
