Vox Nihili posted:so does the FDIC have a ton of discretion to choose how it uses the premiums bank pay into it? I always thought their mandate was pretty much set, but maybe they can just decide "lol all deposits are covered for now, because we can"???? I'm sure the banks paying into the FDIC, all were begging them to do it...

Vox Nihili posted:I use credit cards for everything because the government will bail out banks before it bails out me! When you think about it, everyone should rack up tons of debt, as much as they can, then just take bankruptcy. The greatest of gently caress Yous to Capital! (I'm not being serious... I think...)

Xaris posted:there's pretty much no to little historic precedent for a city being instantly shutoff. all those famed abandoned cities like Angkor, Mesa Verde, or Sumarian empire and stuff, being snuffed out in an instant doesn't happen. it's just slowly ratcheted downward one problem at a time until hundreds of years later, there's no one except a small handful of people living there. the closest you probably would find is something like serbian war and even then that was still slow and still receiving supplies. Then again: Pompeii. Check-loving-mate.

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:Amazon stopped construction on their HQ2 in Virginia lol Um, so the Amazon HQ stuff is old-ish news, but regarding that speculative housing in AZ… most of it was completed (by the banks), sold by the banks (for a profit) or otherwise rented for awhile (at a profit) and then sold as the market rebounded (for a major profit), usually by the banks. Very little in AZ actually was left to rot, because the banks happily went after everyone’s assets where they could.

Mirthless posted:Worth reminding people that it takes years to build a single warship no matter how many you can queue up in a turn in grand strategy games While there’s some truth here, the US absolutely built a fuckton of ships during the active war years. The US entered WWII with eight carriers and left WWII with 99 carriers of every type, plus a number of fast battleships (some of which were laid down in 1939-1940), and hundreds of frigates, destroyers, light cruisers, heavy cruisers, etc. And a lot of submarines. The US Navy added something like 1,100-1,200 combat vessels between 1941-1945.

Frosted Flake posted:Yes, by directly controlling industry and centrally organizing war production in an unprecedented expansion of the state. Oh yeah, I 100% agree it’s unlikely/improbable now. It was mostly a matter of pointing out that the US wasn’t spending all of the 1930s developing what became its wartime navy.

Jaxyon posted:I'm actually curious how the US went back to privatized poo poo after the war, after effectively nationlizing huge sections of the economy The US didn’t nationalize industries, they simply did central planning of resource allocation and material/equipment production. The private sector went along with it because they were provided sweet, sweet contracts and payouts.

Lol, I wonder what leaked… ” The chemicals discovered in the water include butyl acrylate, a contaminant discovered after the Norfolk Southern train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio that spilled hundreds of thousands of pounds of toxic chemicals into the air, soil, and water. Ethel acrylate and methyl methacrylate were also discovered.” Oh, well, yeah, that sucks.

I also liked that most of the media is just referring to it as “latex finishing chemical”; the loving cowards are intentionally avoiding naming the specific chemicals.
