I've started shifting my investments towards foreign markets. Not that if the US market crashes everybody else will come out unblemished, but you have to do something.

Ditto, and it's been great.
and one day the people are going to realise that there is no real value behind these companies and when they stop giving them money the bubble will pop and the world economy will hit a crisis, which is going to lead to even more people losing their jobs and everything getting even more expensive.
It's so fucked, right? These guys go and get themselves insanely wealthy by playing games with the economy and make the system unstable.
Then people realize it, and the flow stops, and the charade is up, and one or two people get caught in the game and lose while the rest of them get off scot-free. The loser has to spend a couple years at a federal resort facility.
This bubble-popping bullshit is more akin to a game of hot potato amongst billionaires and they have no problem with the collateral damage.
This bubble is popping soon. There will be suffering. There will be starving children. Maybe even yours. Because these people are playing hotpotato.
And they will face no consequences.
Man, is anyone else just tired of this?
We NEED to eat the rich. It's getting close to a necessary survival response by now... (lol as if global warming will be deigning many 'winners' as is...)
Technically that's linked; the money Elon makes is from stealing employee wealth and could be used to solve the aforementioned problems.
Not defending the gov though, it's rotten.
But have you seen the Dow though?
The higher the Dow, the more money the rich have extracted.
Oh wow, it actually topped 50,000 this time
And when you slosh around cash you pay taxes...
lol maybe if you're a pleb.
