I agree that the statement was ridiculous, but I think what Westbrook was trying to get at was the notion of marginal utility. When you have $20bil in stock (Elon’s approximate total ownership of Tesla), the stock value _decimating_ still leaves you with $2bil, or more than enough to live i unfathomable comfort for…

stock market seems like arcane nonsense that rich people use to trick the plebs into putting their retirement savings into unscrupulous hands

It seemed a bit out of place to me. Maybe I’m getting cabin fever. Regretting posting that dumbass response. I wish you could edit and delete stuff on this broke as hell website.

Living Groundhog Day. But a less interesting version. With a chance of catching a virus rather than Andie MacDowell. And every Zoom call seems to have someone as annoying as Ned “The Head” Ryerson on it. Maybe I should learn how to play the piano.

You are thinking too small - 26 million people (based on unemployment figures) have unsustainable jobs during a pandemic. They can all figure it out.

Lo-Jack?? In 2020??  Tell the salesman to drive to a the closest pay phone and call you from there and you’ll close the deal.

This, The Washington Post has an article today about the “Excess Deaths” during this pandemic. I.E. Deaths above the seasonal expected that are not accounted directly to COVID. Undoubtably some are actually COVID, but I expect many were “more reasonable fucks” having other health emergencies that didnt want to risk a…

As long as I can roll my wheelchair into the beauty salon, I’m ok with that.

I am in the *want* but not *need* segment of the used car market. Talked to a dealer that has what I very much want at a reasonable price. They will not be getting my money because they are demanding a $500 non-refundable deposit to come look at th car (with no-one around in their parking lot), no test drive and 100%…

Man, that Porsche is thing of beauty. And the Jeep is just as good. Give me one color and make it tan for everything.

We have one - ONE -restaurant here in Houston that said, “Screw your regulations - we’re opening up for inside dining”. They think they’ve done everything they can to make sure you don’t catch the virus from their employees.

That’s a lot of words to say “I’d like for 9 million people to not have jobs”. You could have saved even more and typed nothing at all.

I will not ever sell my Jeep pickup either, one owner from new.

Lots of people go to school for 7 years. They’re called doctors.

So why in the fuck did we shut down to begin with? Why even try to mitigate a disaster? By your thinking, just let everyone get COVID-19, let the weak die, and let life go on calmly for everyone else, with no disruptions to your perfect life.

I’m all for letting Darwinism win that game, unfortunately all these careless fucks will end up clogging the health system and prevent more reasonable fucks from getting access for other, less easily preventable, health issues.

I’ve read there’s a good chance a COVID resurgence could overlap with the flu season. This is not good news. 

Cox research indicates that the supply and demand curves are inverted, which mutually satisfies consumers at both ends of the spectrum.

Just make sure you are claiming the hookers as ‘cardiac rehab’ CPT 93797

Cox projects that 69 percent of consumers who are delaying a purchase would come back to the market for the right deal.
