Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
I have to note that this is certainly not the first time that the airline interests have responded to the problem in this manner.
A bit of history: Back in the 60s/70s when I was a controller, FAA Air Traffic Control (ATC) had no equipment capable…
@hank- You well know that I respect your opinions almost across the board. But I have to note that if a proposed federal budget results in a financial downgrade that "may affect mutual funds I might own or be thinking of buying", the situation, inc…
It's pretty easy to observe that much of the benefit of Trump's $3.8 trillion tax cut goes to those who are certainly not struggling to get by. @FD1000 blithely dismisses that with the comment that "The rich get richer is old news."
It certainly is…
@dsuttr: Has it ever occurred to you that before something becomes "vindictive" there had to be an initiating event? Maybe we should cast a glance in that direction.
And exactly why is it "vindictive" to invite @FD1000 to comment on the pending maj…
Earlier in this thread I invited @FD1000 to comment on the pending major increase in US Government debt, which of course is "the much larger reality"... he evidently doesn't care to say much on this subject.
I also get a chuckle out of his commen…
Fact, I'll put my money on Jamie Dimon's read on this.
Fact, I very much doubt that you're going to worry that your tax-break money will be coming from medicaid allowances for the poor.
Fact, I very much doubt that you're going to worry that your…
"The coddled, spoiled, under-taxed wealthy have effectively been cannibalizing the rest of us for many years."
H'mmm... some good points. I wonder if maybe ol' FD fits in there someplace? That might account for his silence here.
Earlier in this thread I invited @FD1000 to comment on the pending major increase in US Government debt. I see that he showed up here (just above) but evidently doesn't care to say much on this subject.

Yes, all of that stuff is true. But (at least up to this point) he has been nothing but a complete pain in the ass to Johnson and Trump. Just a major troublemaker, because he is so far on the right fringe that he likely will never prevail, but he ca…
Hey David- I'm glad that you had the sense to pay attention to your young doctor. At our ages fooling around isn't a great idea. As you have suggested to me a few times over the years- "Try to be good!"
In other words the UK will now admit US beef and chicken except when they still wont.
ANOTHER MAJOR WIN-WIN-WIN FOR TRUMP !!! WHAT A NEGOCIATOR !!! WHAT A DEAL !!!
WHAT A GUY !!!
On the other hand, there's a report in this morning's WSJ saying that High School Juniors learning welding are being offered $70k starting pay (!!) when they graduate. Seems like some trades are in serious demand, and unlikely to be replaced by AI.
Yes, that entire park was one of our best vacation adventures. No one (other than a few cows) even stopped us as we drove back and forth between the two parks. I'm pretty sure that Trump has done real lasting damage to the relations between out two …
@Catch22- Just hilarious, Catch... just completely hilarious... 347 bajillion lives will be saved !! I've known cocker spaniels with more smarts than Bondi. No wonder she shoots dogs- she can't stand the competition.
