I heard some info today that the Social Security folks have about 3.5 million people between 120 and 130 years old, 3.6 million between 130 and 140, and lots more well above that, including a thousand or so well over 200 years old. No need for an independent look at that. Nah, just let 'em be and keep paying.

MCAS was well on its way prior to Trump. Further, I doubt you have any idea how certification is done, how competent Boeing or other aircraft manufacturers are, or their capabilities, or the test process prior to certification. How many US 737's have succumbed to MCAS? None. Know why? This crazy vector on this forum of assigning any degree of blame for this recent spate of incidents is bizarre and unjustified. The antiquated FAA air traffic control system should have been addressed years ago, and certainly under the four years of Buttigieg. No. He was too busy forcing adult professionals to attend pronoun training and changing the decades old lexicon to get the phrase man out of everything. Total waste, and despised by all with a stake. Just horrible.

More idiocy. I don't have any idea who is doing nothing. I simply expressed my viewpoint that if there isn't productivity from people, we shouldn't be forced to pay for them, and it happens all the time in the gov. Second, claiming that you know anybody, let alone Trump, is laughing at people hurt in an accident puts you at a new level. Just crazy assed, unbridled, irrational hatred.

No. No interest at all. You are the one who brought that up, but truth be told, I have done this trade over twenty times. But, you miss the point, if the discussion digresses to trading. It doesn't matter what a five year chart is. If you want to hold something, like ATT for instance, or a buy it and go fishing trade, so be it. Volatile stocks in emerging technologies present opportunities on both sides. I do that, and I like doing that. -

I have absolutely no interest in what you speculate about my trades, and you have no idea. Emerging technologies lead to volatile, speculative trades. The overarching point, absent the trading aspect, which will fund college educations, is that we have no need to import foreign energy sources, unless we want to. End. -

I have no interest in what you think about what I do. None. You don't have any idea about my timing. What I will say is that when you have an emerging technology that is delivering, people get interested. That interest leads to speculation. That speculation leads to trading opportunities, as the prices get speculative and more importantly, volatile. That speculative trading leads to opportunities in both the issue and its derivatives, ie., options. I love the technology. I really like the trading action. -
Your entire post is absolute nonsense. You are in your own class of ignorance. Perhaps you don't actually read posts. I have never doubted that you cant comprehend them, but now I suspicious that you even read them, because nobody could be that stupid to post what you do. For those that do read, what I said was that I have no problem with getting rid of people who do nothing,

Not a meaningful comment, as these technologies develop rapidly and changes occur in the market extremely quickly. For instance scaling a newer technology develops very rapidly. With scaling issue getting solved, along with the undeniable perception that the US grid delivery system is no longer something companies who actually demand reliable power can count on, things change at warp speed, and that is going on now. AI data centers are the current catalyst, but there's a reason why AEP just signed a 1 gigawatt deal with Bloom to power those data centers. No years long political fighting to get a utility company built. Your own energy at your own site all the time. In addition, it is much cleaner, and even the CO2 released is concentrated and pure enough that Chart Industries just signed an agreement to capture the CO2 and re-purpose it. As well, this energy production is being developed at commercially viable and competitive prices, and is going to get cheaper. Either way, as these industries grow, dependence on politically radioactive public utility issues, unreliable grid performance, (see California every year, and Texas two years ago), the realization that these are very clean and not real estate hogs, as solar and wind are, we don't need to import energy anymore. -

Invalid premise. It wasn't economists who figured out how to provide electrical power to the space shuttle, which didn't have the ability to deploy massive solar panels, which the Intl Space Station does. It was physicists and chemists, and that's where the answers come from. -

Nothing ignorant about it. There may well be a finite amount of oil on the planet, but that doesn't matter. We have an immense supply on natural gas that could supply us for decades. But even that is underpinned by the technology we have to provide energy without combustion, which means non polluting, and have scores of very recognizable corporations using this technology to produce on site energy, which takes the grid dependence out of the equation. There is an accelerated movement in this area as AI energy dependence becomes more evident. We also have the capability to use hydrogen as a completely clean energy source. We may choose to use conventional sources for the time being, as the infrastructure is in place and convenient, but we are not Germany at the outset of Russia's Ukraine invasion, facing a major supply problem. Energy as a weapon is no longer a threat to us. -

We are not going to waste time talking about this, but the US is drowning in LNG, and is achieving remarkable and financial efficacy in sources that are non combustible, including LNG, on site production, and thus absolutely not dependent on grid deliverance, which is the single weak link. Your claim is not indicative of someone who knows what is recently going on. I am pleased to have been financially rewarded by being "wrong," per your claim. Do a six month chart of Bloom Energy, (BE). Find out what they do and where they are going. -
No statement, just an empirical observation. My grandson is less than two years old. He is extremely talkative and social. His dad works for a gov org, and has been based in the Dominican Republic for two years with a Dominican nanny, as my daughter works full time as well. Point; with his limited sub two year old language skills, he speaks Spanish as well as English. When visiting us this past summer, whether in the grocery store cart of in his back seat car seat with the window open and an adjacent car, if the person close to him was white, he would say "hello." If they were darker skinned, he would say "hola." Kids figure stuff out early.

I'm actually learning the easy way. I actively trade energy markets and I am aware of what is available. The point being, again, the US does not need outside sources for it's energy needs. Period. -
Admire her all you want, but keep her and her idiocy away from anything that effects my family or my country. She is a full blown idiot.

The US has no need for energy supply from anywhere else. It might choose to use those sources, but it has no need to do so. -
Fatal.

Disregarding and misstating words that were actually said an on recorded is not a fundamental disagreement. It is deliberate lying. Fundamental disagreement is like that AOC lune posting a video of saying Elon Musk is an idiot, as she has done in the last day. Like him or hate him, he is not an idiot. Her claim was becasue he has young folks in his group looking at stuff, which she claims does not qualify them. Turns out, one of these "young ignorant" people just used AI to decode a script from the eruption of Pompeii, 2000 years ago. So, in your bullpen you have a bartender from the Bronx criticizing this kid genius. Does that concern you? Do you think the rest of the country is confident of the party that pukes this out?
