Re <<As usual the comment are as good as the article>> The below two out of the many thoughtful ones struck me as particularly good, per for the greater-good. Neither of which can be implemented elsewhere as long as elsewhere cannot even settle the issue I am agnostic on, re covid vaccination, and the one I am fairly conclusive on, masking. Re 'common prosperity' I am all-for, within reason, as long as 'they' do not go too far, and 'too far' is a matter of deliberated calibration, and the red line is set at somewhere between some of my stuff and some other of my stuff, suitably, for the greater good. I happily sacrifice my cash, and near cash, as long as my crypto and gold is spared. Real estate? I think some folks ought to be sheared by valuation (say the residential rental stuff) and other folks ramped (say the industrial lofts redeveloped). Zig and zag, to and fro, left and right, 'they' shall figure it all out, crossing the river by feeling the stones. As to the 'CCP', for all that matters 'they' can swap name to 'People's Democratic Buddhist Party' for all I care. Hack, 'they' can even call themselves Democrats or Republicans, as long as 'they' refrain from adopting the policies of either grouping.

Following up to Message 33469373 , and reiterating the unfairness of some actions, and the possible downsides to other actions, there must be a middle ground where life as we know it can sustainably continue ... Hey @neelkashkari… why is the Fed lending money to Blackrock at 0.05% to go out and buy houses (i.e., compete against poor people), vs. poor/middle-class Americans who are forced to take home loans out at 4-5%? Is this not the definition of inequality? — Gordon Johnson (@GordonJohnson19) September 1, 2021
