Looks like u have a straight Dem Vs GoP fight on over the lockdown, Dems want the economy in the tank etc…we have the same here, except there is no left/right anymore in politics, just all left. so cannot get rid of Lockdown..
Been talking to people….Mate in Switzerland had his hair cut at his Barbers 2 weeks ago, ate in a restaurant this Tuesday and is off to Mykonos ( Greek Islands) on 27 June.
My postman said London had under 20 cases ystdy, no post men he has heard of, have had it, except maybe one…he has taken no precautions and is just fine.

China’s plans for security agencies in Hong Kong will ‘silence city’, activists say
HONG KONG (Reuters) – A Chinese proposal to impose national security laws on Hong Kong could see mainland intelligence agencies set up bases there, raising fears of direct law enforcement and what U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called a “death knell” for the city’s autonomy.

Mad numbers! They can just push a few buttons and create it at will. What’s the harm?
It’s a slippery slope we’ve stepped upon!

They are doing that now. That’s why the Dems are going for 3 trillion here. They are bailing themselves out. 1 trillion goes to them.

“Why California Is In Trouble: 340,000 Public Employees With $100,000+ Paychecks Cost Taxpayers $45 Billion”
This is absurd and makes me nauseous. Who works for who? The new feudalism … and of course CA will expect the taxpayers from other states to pay out when they have their eventual collapse.

Inflation in everything we must have to sustain everyday life.
I would exclude housing though.
Looks like pm’s might have game today, nice turnaround in silver.

Yeah I’ve heard that not all are happy in AOC’s district as well. The Amazon fiasco pissed a lot of people off. I think Michelle C C would be a much better Rep too. Let’s hope she dumps AOC on her ass!

R640 – I don’t think there’s any doubt that if we’re headed toward the Zimbabwe, Weimar hyperinflation stocks will go much higher.
Maddog – Haven’t paid much attention to Hong Kong, the SM is immune to bad news. The only thing that matters is liquidity and it seems there’s plenty of that.

Hong Kong not looking clever, which is why SM was offered etc…but of course that means nothing to the scum, ……if u don’t get out of HK now yr gonna be stuck and the Donald is aware…..HK being wiped out financially is not a non event, especially with Bat Clap around.

There is an ocean of money out there seeking a return…economists talk about how money printing has not caused consmer price inflation YET….that’s debatable…but the amount of $s in existance has been inflated and so have paper assets
I think the stock market is the beneficiary of people finally taking their savings out of retirement plans and bonds and just wanting it in stocks…something kinda tangible…like PM stackers convert all their fiat….if true, the stock mkt could go full Weimar with unimaginable upside targets…hence Armstrongs’ call for Amazon at 5400 some day
That said, I keep remembering Japans crash in 1989–stocks seemed unstoppable then….after the crash, savers sat on $11 reillion for 20 yrs in low yielding bonds…they were content just to “preserve” their cash and not “reach fir yieldz’

Total cases: 647 (4 newly reported)
Hawai’i County: 82
Honolulu County: 416
Kaua’i County: 21
Maui County: 118†
Pending: 0
Residents diagnosed outside of Hawai‘i: 10
Required Hospitalization: 83‡
Hawaii deaths: 17
Released from Isolation: 579§
Cumulative totals as of 12:00pm, May 21, 2020
One new case on Maui, three new cases here on the Big Island of Hawaii County. Talk I hear is recent cases on the Big Island are traveller-related. Latest being a returning family member who got sick and infected the whole family… hence three new cases today.
Governor is slowly easing restrictions. Beaches are now open IF YOU PRACTICE SOCIAL DISTANCE. County parks here open… state and national parks remain closed. Plans to ease the inter island travel quarantine in a few days. More low risk businesses opening. The ‘Covid Czar’ here is Lt. Governor Josh Green, M.D. He notes that the State has adequate medical reserve capacity at this point. Only 19% of ventilators in use, and hospital and ICU beds occupied is below 50%. If they see a worrisome surge coming back, the lockdowns will be put back in place.

I have heard some grass-roots vocalizing about how she (AOC) is not working for their district, but working for others ‘national goals’. Much dissatisfaction there among the electorate.
I think Michelle C-C could take the seat easily with her TV recognition. I doubt she would be as rabidly socialist as AOC, either.
