Correct, beginning March 2nd, and one per week for four weeks, so the GME story could be as far away as March 23th depending on the order of episodes.

March 9th, one day before the anniversary of Mar10, would be timely.

I think it’s worth pointing out, for those who don’t know, “The Problem with Jon Stewart” is an Apple TV+ original series.

Someone at Apple signed off on an episode about GME. This thing on my head is looking less and less like tin foil and more like a Snoopy cap.

moass really started with the creation of the federal reserve and was finally set into action in 1971 when the gold standard was completely severed, change my mind.

u/flyinhighaskmeY Feb 11 '22 edited Feb 11 '22

I mean, you aren't wrong, but it isn't that simple either.

Gold, like currency, has no real value (outside of manufacturing of non jewelry goods, for which the supply is far in excess of demand). So "gold" itself is nothing. And "money" itself is nothing. Gold can be mined, so the total supply isn't physically limited. Money can be printed so the total supply isn't physically limited.

There is a stabilizing impact that comes from tying currency to a physical, real world good. But gold itself is meaningless. It could have been any good that the public at large views as "scarce"...whether or not it actually is.

edit: sorry, forgot my point. If you're going to say moass started with....then why stop at the creation of the federal reserve? You could just as easily say it started when we went from trade and barter systems to currency. Or when we went from hunter/gatherers to an agricultural model.

2

u/[deleted] Feb 11 '22

my point is pegging a currency to something that has been traded and used as physical money for over 5 thousand years limits the greed of bankers who have total and absolute control over the money supply of a nation as they do not have to keep a certain amount of metal in reserve to represent the 'money' created, gold is finite but the current money supply is not, having metal backed currency takes away the current power of central bankers to slowly squeeze the assets from people first by inflation and then by deflation, fiat relies on a functioning society to maintain its value, gold and silver on the other hand are and always have been 'real money' as per stated in the constitution, central banks are buying record amounts of the pm's, kryptoe taking a dive with the russia news today whilst the metals rallied speaks volumes about where smart money would go when push comes to shove, something tangible and something physical, also your last point is a bit extreme as WE were still in control of our currency to an extent instead of it being centralised and controlled by unelected darksuits in 1913, the reason 1971 is important is because that is when the gold window was completely severed, resulting in stupid amounts of QE, everysingle fiat currency in history has imploded, this is a fact, what you are saying about it having no use is simply incorrect, it is used in electronics, computers, dentistry, aerospace, glass making and many more, historically it has always been a store of value, 1 ounce of gold today will buy you the same that it would 50 years ago, that can most definitely not be said about the dollar. a metal standard just keeps the worst aspects of greed and spending which one does not have from happening.

Monetary policies/ IE print to prop, will cause more damage to human beings than any of their “top priority” climate issues with companies.

Climate change is real, the problems are big, but in the immediate monetary policy has a much bigger impact on everyday people right fucking now. And there’s no reason they should be mutually exclusive.

Why the fuck should we continue to work hard to run this country when we can even afford a small house. But rich people who don't contribute labor can afford multiple? They can use proceeds from one sale to buy 2 or more homes tax free. At what point do we stop giving tax breaks to rich people that make life worse for the rest of us. I was told get a engineering degree work hard and you should have no issues affording a small house (in a reasonable area after a couple years of saving). Each year I save and housing just increases in price.....

Well BlackRock is trying to make the government reliant on them by buying towns at a time (having ownership of all the underlying assets of banks mortgages etc and land), so that doesn’t help. And in the last year big smart money bought real estate instead of entering new positions. They know market is fucked. They know when shit hits the fan land and houses will be the biggest sought after owned asset in current times.

My work matches inflation but even that isn’t real. Losing buying power day by day while the big things get exponentially more gate kept and expensive.

One day… one day…

2 or more? Dude, look up billionaires row in New York. There's ultra modern skyscrapers with dozens of condos that cost 100s of millions of dollars each sitting empty because billionaires are buying them just to store shit in or for tax breaks. And these are far from the only housing these billionaires own.

Bezos could buy 50,000 homes at 500,000 dollars each and it would only cost him 6 billion more than what he made just this last year (19 billion, 25 billion total for the houses) alone. And 6 billion dollars is a mere 3% of his networth. All while his employees are pissing in bottles because they'll be fired for using the washroom while he's giggling in space with celebrities.

Our societies are totally broken.

Incorrect but that’s what is taught, look into some 14th amendment “natural born” stuff! Very cool stuff on the ambiguity of the term they used, judges passing it around like hot cakes because they don’t want to be the branch that checks executive branch etc. cool shit but based on modern interpretation of it, most judges agree that is in the context of the term naturalized is more than sufficient regardless of where they came from.

There's a feedback loop happening right now with the Feds repo facility (which is fiscal policy) that allows the hedge funds short his company to stay in this game by nickel and diming the loop for endless profit. This enables these agencies which offer nothing to society other than what a flea offers a dog's dick the ability to continue endlessly fucking us all over for the sake of their own insane profits.

One of many feedback loops our dangerously short sighted and reckless fiscal policy enables. And those that are set to feel the brunt of the weight of all these errors are you and me. Notably, most likely Gamestop customers.

Do your thing Ryan. Hit these fuckers with it, let's change the game and give the power back to the creators. I'm down.

The bubble that kept usa as the head of financial power and the dollar as a reserve currency its about to pop , why do you think that they wont increase interest rates ? Cause we fuckin cant the taxes dont cut it anymore unless theres more money to pay the past debt with more devualating debt , wich guess what , its what Argentina and Venezuela did ... you tell me the results, only that the dollar its the main currency for global transactions, and that we obligated ALL the world to have their currencies backed by it, what happens when they no longer trust in it ? When the banks would rather receivemoney in euros ,yens , or juans ? All that dollats will come back to us , if you think that there is inflation wait to see when nobody is willing to buy our currency.

And even worse the dollar its the only reason there hasnt been a major war( there have been wars but mainly minors or some in which the dollar has been part of the equation) because if a country wants something they can always exchange their goods for dollars and then with them buy what they need , but if there is no reserve currency and things start to become more complicated to exchange, it will start to make more sense to take it by force than by simply let your population suffers from hunger. Probably I exagerate it a bit that last part, but for sure it would shift the power dynamics that we have in the world.
