I’ll chip in with a case of Vaseline.

Is that your lube of choice? Personal stash?

Johnr, I have a feeling this is an area where our politicians say you can’t but behind closed doors say get us the f in there so we know what’s going on but keep us out of it cause we’re blaming you I’d shit hits the fan.

Traxion I agree, the middle class gets no break form either party.
Trump tax breaks for highest earners was approximately 3%
Lowest earners 1%
middle class no change (not counting losses due to SALT restrictions)
As to indicators, S&P 500 is higher, generally reflects economic conditions better than DJI.
Wage growth vs inflation is improving: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1351276/wage-growth-vs-inflation-us/
As to unemployment, while it is not 3.6% pre-covid it stands at 4.2%
traditionally anything under 5% is considered "full employment"

Johnr and guy, just curious. When it comes to other countries doing gain of function research what is your thought? Should we try to somehow have a seat at the table to know what’s going on? Use the CIA and hackers to try spy on the research? Or?

Uhhh Gonefshn....we are the gain of function nation. We just do it in other countries. Thought you were old enough to realize that? I'm not joking either
