• Yellen: US on track to default on national debt in October

    From El Castor@21:1/5 to All on Wed Sep 8 11:45:04 2021
    "In a Wednesday letter, Yellen said that the Treasury Department would
    likely run out of cash and exhaust "extraordinary" measures to keep
    the federal government within its legal borrowing limit at some point
    next month.
    "Once all available measures and cash on hand are fully exhausted, the
    United States of America would be unable to meet its obligations for
    the first time in our history," Yellen said." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/yellen-us-on-track-to-default-on-national-debt-in-october/ar-AAOe4MU?ocid=uxbndlbing

    That's what happens when a country is locked down, and the citizens
    given free unemployment money, that is more than twice what they would
    make.

    The democrat's solution? Spend more money.

    Trump's tax cut for the rich doesn't count? Reagan was the king of
    deficits, not the Democrats.

    And again, and again, until we become another Greece?

    BTW, Intel will be spending $950 billion on expanding European chip
    production. Why Europe? Could it be that they intend to sell those
    chips to European manufacturers and lower European corporate taxes
    will allow them to be competitive? I think that has to be a
    significant part of their decision. Even under Trump Sweden had a
    lower corporate tax rate than the US -- now much lower.

    On an unrelated issue -- just curious about something. I'm concerned
    about reports that China will soon displace the US economically and
    militarily. Taiwan and Korea have already surpassed us in chip
    production. If I was to observe that the intelligence of East Asians
    surpassed that of Western Caucasians -- would that be a racist remark?

    Raising the debt ceiling is required by previously-enacted spending commitments. Now perhaps we shouldn't spend so much (or increase taxes),
    but that's water over the bridge as far as raising the debt ceiling.

    Not if we were to reduce spending now -- which is not going to happen.
    The Left relishes tax increases because it believes that those higher
    taxes will be paid for by punishing the "rich". Unfortunately we have
    found time and again that higher taxes are paid for by everyone and
    are reflected in higher prices, reduced job growth, and a slowing
    economy.

    Getting back to my unrelated question. If I was to observe that East
    Asian IQs are on average measurably higher than Caucasian IQs, would
    that be a racist remark -- or just truthful?

    Really doesn't matter how long ago the spending was authorized --

    That observation explains a lot ...
    Asian American household income is measurably greater than Caucasian
    American household income, and Asian Americans who comprise 5.9% of
    the population, account for 1.5% of the US prison population. African Americans, on the other hand, trail Asian Americans by 20 IQ points,
    make up 13.4% of the US population, and 38.2% of the prison

    Face facts. It all comes down to genetics -- in this case IQ. If we
    were to look at success in Olympic track and field, the tables would
    be turned. Once again, genetics. I don't believe this because of my
    politics, I believe it because it is true.

    What to do about it? Technology -- but admitting reality first would
    be helpful. Unfortunately that admission can get a researcher fired.

    the population, account for 1.5% of the US prison population. African
    Americans, on the other hand, trail Asian Americans by 20 IQ points,
    make up 13.4% of the US population, and 38.2% of the prison
    population.

    Face facts. It all comes down to genetics -- in this case IQ.

    I knew it. You have no recollection of why your statement is wrong. Go
    back and read our discussions. And don't bother with your inapt
    references to IQ studies that concluded up to 80% of IQ is explained by >>genetics. Instead, let's see if you can (from reading our discussions) >>summarize why those studies are inapt.

    Oh please! Liberals in their desperation to avoid the truth could find >"proof" that the moon was made of green cheese. Choose politics over
    logic if you wish, but you are fooling no one but yourself.

    A little more info for you to not believe. (-8

    Average Sub-Saharan African IQs around the world ...
    Africa 67
    Caribbean 71
    US 85
    Netherlands 85
    Britain 86 https://human-intelligence.org/race-differences-in-intelligence/

    Hmmm. Our bodily functions are a product of our genes. Why not our
    brains?
    "Ashkenazi Jews
    Their average I.Q is about 110, the highest in the world (Europe,
    America, South Africa). They also have the highest standard deviation
    at 17, which further increases their representation among the highest
    I.Q.
    With a population of only 10 million people, they won no less than
    one-third of the world’s Nobel Prizes and represent 50% of the chess
    champions.
    There is a link between their high intelligence and the particularly
    high frequency of certain genetic diseases in their population.
    Ashkenazim also have the highest frequency of myopia of birth, myopia
    is correlated to +0.25 with human intelligence. The explanation could
    be a pleiotropic gene, ie a gene that has an impact on both the eyes
    and the central nervous system, namely the brain. It should be noted
    that the eyes are extensions of the central nervous system. Kirkegaard
    et al. (2009) show that Ashkenazi Jews have a higher GWAS score for
    educational attainment (mainly high I.Q genes) as compare to non
    Jewish Europeans."

    Don't you find the consistency of intelligence among genetically
    similar groups, without regard to country of origin, to be curious?

    How many Nobel prizes in Physics have been awarded to Africans of any nationality?
    Olympic gold medals to Black athletes?

    Darwin understood that humans are animals, animals that evolved
    differently in different environments.

    No, it won't. You're off by a factor of ten, and the report includes
    both Europe and the USA. Try $95 billion world-wide.

    Intel has plenty of investment plans in the USA.
