beginning of new day, August 22

00:20 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2], So how does the government count 818,000 jobs that didn't get created?

00:20 IsambardPrince; That's like 5 out of the 12 jobs reports, gone.

00:21 IsambardPrince; In a Friday evening news dump.

00:21 IsambardPrince; There's just no acceptable explanation for this.

00:22 IsambardPrince; "You know half those new jobs we told you about? Well, they didn't actually happen. Here's Tom with the weather!"

00:23 IsambardPrince; Attack the media for trying to report on the protest at the DNC.

00:24 IsambardPrince; Well, it's a good thing they have Mayor Brandon Johnson to do that for them.

00:24 IsambardPrince; Make sure the protest isn't reported.

00:24 IsambardPrince; Harris coronation.

00:24 IsambardPrince; "Good feelings and positive vibes."

00:25 IsambardPrince; You know, one thing I agree with the Communists on is that the Democratic Party is a fucking joke.

00:25 IsambardPrince; They had JB Pritzker there, as a speaker.

00:25 IsambardPrince; Bragging about how many billions of dollars he has.

00:25 IsambardPrince; As governor of a state that's turning into a giant tent city because of all these fucking landlords.

07:27 schestowitz[TR2]; but many people go like,

07:28 schestowitz[TR2]; "oh, all my friends do, so I will too"

07:37 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2], It mentions that most of the practices that were the worst were banned in the CARD Act.

07:37 IsambardPrince; But they're still plenty dangerous.

07:37 IsambardPrince; The practices they got rid of in the CARD Act were pioneered by a Jew and an Indian.

07:37 IsambardPrince; Go figure.

07:37 IsambardPrince; (Providian)

07:38 IsambardPrince; The Indian CEO, Mehta, basically said that he delighted in minimally complying with the law.

07:38 IsambardPrince; Said "Go write your stupid laws and I'll outsmart them."

07:38 IsambardPrince; They don't even hide it.

07:39 IsambardPrince; And the Jewish fellow that implemented all the debt traps, Andrew Kahr, just looks and acts like a creep.

07:39 IsambardPrince; Never even stops to blink.

07:39 IsambardPrince; These are the folks running the banking system.

07:40 IsambardPrince; When I saw that the CEO of Providian was Indian I laughed.

07:40 IsambardPrince; Like, "figures".

07:41 IsambardPrince; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Kahr

07:41 TR Bot; Andrew Kahr - Wikipedia

07:41 IsambardPrince; "In a series of memos that were revealed in the lawsuit, Kahr urged the company to "squeeze customers" and to avoid disclosing card expenses. Providian terminated its relationship with Kahr in 2000."

07:41 IsambardPrince; "In 1981 Kahr partnered with the Parker Pen Company to create First Deposit Corp., a non-bank bank that issued credit cards targeting the subprime cardholder market. First Deposit, later acquired by Providian Financial, used Kahr's research to identify the most profitable subprime customers those who paid interest on revolving balances and then offered them enticements such as zero percent introductory rates, cashback rew

07:41 IsambardPrince; ard programs and 2 percent minimum payments"

07:41 IsambardPrince; "pairing these with severe penalties for late payments or credit limit violations"

07:43 IsambardPrince; "In a March 1999 memorandum published by the San Francisco Chronicle, the founder of the company, Andrew Kahr, asked company executives about its customers: 'Is any bit of food too small to grab when you're starving and when there is nothing else in sight? The trick is charging a lot, repeatedly, for small doses of instrumental [sic]credit.'"

07:44 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2], The banking industry is where people who would otherwise be serial killers go.

07:44 IsambardPrince; That's my take on it.

07:46 schestowitz[TR2]; is it an industry?

07:46 schestowitz[TR2]; what does it manufacture?

20:24 schestowitz[TR2]; No, the OP was right. Trump doubled the deficit in his last two years. He spent 8 trillion dollars. This includes his tax cut and his Covid stimulus. (Remember that Trump fired the novel virus response team in China just a few months earlier. Their job was to prevent such outbreaks. He saved at most $150k but got rid of yet another Obama institution).

20:24 schestowitz[TR2]; Comparing this to Obama's spending is disingenuous. Obama spent about the same Trump but over EIGHT years. It took Trump just 2. And Obama was cleaning up the banking crisis caused by deregulation of banks by Dubya. He did a good job too.

20:24 schestowitz[TR2]; All Trump did was give the economy a sugar high at a very high cost and let a nasty virus run amuck. Incompetent as they come. Spending that much money that fast IS inflationary. And it usually takes a couple of years to see the long-term damage.
