Not sure how much the City tried to defend the tests. But just because you got a degree doesn’t mean you know things (or should be teaching).

ParticipantKeep in mind that inflation is still happening, just at a slower pace.

Inflation is a regressive, compounding, permanent tax on the poor. This is the most important economic policy lesson we can teach the younger generations.

ParticipantThe hotel REITs turning those hotels over to lenders halfway through the mortgage terms are the most shocking to me. I assume after the tax consequences, it was still financially advantageous to abandon the properties. Parc 55 and Club Quarters are really nice hotels. Park Hotels and Resorts stock went up 2% after the announcement (but is down on interest rate concerns).

ParticipantI don’t think he’s going to win, but I don’t mind him getting onto the debate stage and taking out, say, Marco Rubio. He’s funny, though.
I don’t think a lot of the criticisms of other candidates are landing from any of the candidates at this point. Those with affirmative messages seem to have the most momentum.

ParticipantThe 2018 Pulitzer Prizes for national reporting are utter garbage.

ParticipantI found this useful when trying to define fascism. Uses primary source material and traces the philosophical evolution that lead to fascism in Italy and the version in Germany. Trigger warning for those who can’t handle mentioning or quoting “Mein Kampf,” even in this context.
If you counter with Jason Stanley or Ruth Ben-Ghiat, I don’t see how their claims to understand fascism differ from a teenage Lister from “Red Dwarf,” linked below. Their refusal to acknowledge authoritarian acts by Justin Trudeau or Jacinda Ahren, are just some recent examples of their lack of credibility.
