Q: What do POTUS Trump and D&D have in common?

A: A will to compulsory depopulation of impoverished rural America




quote:

But I said to Gary, I said, you know, Gary, you go to certain sections and you’re going to need people to work in these massive plants that we’re getting, that are moving in. Where do we have the people? You know where we have the people? In New York state that can’t get jobs, in many other places that can’t get jobs. And people are going to have to start moving. They’re going to move to Colorado and they’re going to move to Iowa and Wisconsin and places where – like if Foxconn goes to Wisconsin, which is one of the places they’re very strongly considering – but if Foxconn goes to Wisconsin and they have a very low rate and the governor’s done an excellent job, you’re going to have a situation where you got to get the people. But they’re going to start moving. And I’m going to start explaining to people when you have an area that just isn’t working – like upper New York state, where people are getting very badly hurt – and then you’ll have another area 500 miles away where you can’t – you can’t get people, I’m going to explain you can leave, it’s OK, don’t worry about your house.

You know, a lot of them don’t leave because of their house. Because they say, gee, my house, I thought it was worth 70,000 (dollars) and now it’s worth nothing. It’s OK. Go, cut your losses, right?

Buckle up for the financial system to take an astonishingly huge poo poo soon, it turns out the LIBOR, commonly used as the base interest rate for mortgages, credit cards and other loans the world over not only was being manipulated but the thing it was supposed to measure even when working properly doesn't exist.

As many as 60% of outstanding loan contracts worldwide could be subject to renegotiation or litigation if that specified benchmark ceases to exist.

I wouldn't worry. Taibbi over sensationalizes a ton of his poo poo, and most of the pain points brought up in this article wouldn't apply to mortgage or title loans, but rather on a scale that would hit the lending institution itself. Banks are bound by some pretty ironclad regulations and restrictions on what the can and cannot renegotiate with their clients, if the market or fiat backing changes, it's tough poo poo for them, and it's why the Fed has been requiring them to carry a ton of liquidity ever since the 08 meltdown. There's an entire field of Liquidity and Credit Risk that has come up since that crisis, and I would seriously doubt that the worldwide credit system has not had eyes on this for a while. Each bank that wants to offer conventional and federally assured mortgages is required to perform a CCAR, Regulatory Reporting, and Liquidity risk at the end of each year, this drives compliance and results in huge fines if they gently caress up at any point along that road. They cannot and will not (usually) smack down to hit their mortgage holder, lest they run afoul of fair lending and consumer protection restrictions.
A better barometer is to call your lender and talk through their rate assessment procedure with them, when a rate's good, lock it in 45 days before you want to buy, that way you buy 15 days when you can pick and choose a better rate if it comes along.

Buy within your means-- no more than 3 years annual salary/expected income, get a 30 year and pay it like a 15 year if you can and see if you can hit a 25% deposit for some sweet sweet closing cost discounts. Do modify your W-4 withholding to reflect your mortgage interest and property tax deductions BEFORE tax return season. That money is better off in your pocket, paying down outstanding loans or in a savings account where it can generate interest.

Don't do anything with the word "adjustable" in it.

Also note paying half every two weeks instead of once every month carves a 30 year loan down to 23.

Black Panther Party was easily the most efficacious gun control organization in US history.

Also drat, Gen. Bragg had to be deep on the spectrum:


wikipedia posted:

He launched a series of argumentative letters with senior Army officials, including the adjutant general and Army paymaster, that established his reputation as "disputatious."[5]

Bragg had a reputation for being a strict disciplinarian and one who adhered to regulations literally. There is a famous, apocryphal story, included in Ulysses S. Grant's memoirs, about Bragg as a company commander at a frontier post where he also served as quartermaster. He submitted a requisition for supplies for his company, then as quartermaster declined to fill it. As company commander, he resubmitted the requisition, giving additional reasons for his requirements, but as the quartermaster he denied the request again.

Because Twitter and this thread is going ape poo poo.

He completely lost his poo poo yelling at people, cutting off questions, offering a full-throated defense of "the innocent and properly-permitted folks protesting to save their statue".

I say this in absolute seriousness, at least 65% of Springer guests show more decorum and 100% are less publicly sympathetic to Nazis because those guys only get invited to Maury anymore.

As someone said above this was insane even by Trump standards.
