(45,673 posts)16. Biden's leftist job killing socialism has been working out pretty well for the stock market
Corporate profits are at record highs in spite of all the socialism. If I gave up my freedoms for this, it's worth it.
Dems are better for the economy than Republicans going back decades. The GOP doesn't have anything to run on. They're claiming the solution to inflation is to keep out migrant workers who grow, pick, and process our food. And the solution to the labor shortage is what? To give massive tax cuts to the rich "job creators" to trickle down all over us?
Tax cuts and immigration bans are going to supply us with labor and lower prices only in the imaginations of idiots.

Bonds are cheap now, it's a great time to buy bonds while interest rates are high

If you are over 59 1/2 you can withdraw without penalty but you have to pay tax.
