By #Voting for #Democrats We Make Our Lives Better!

"China’s government bond market has opened 2025 with a clear warning for policymakers: without more determined stimulus, investors expect deflationary pressures to become even more entrenched in the world’s second-largest economy.

China’s 10-year bond yield, a benchmark for economic growth and inflation expectations, fell to a record low of less than 1.6 per cent during trading last week and has since hovered close to that level.

Crucially, the whole yield curve has shifted downwards rather than steepening, suggesting investors are alarmed about the long-term outlook and not just anticipating short-term cuts to interest rates.

“For the long-term [bonds], yields have been trending down and I think that’s more about longer-term growth expectations and inflation expectations becoming more pessimistic. And I think that trend is likely to continue,” said Hui Shan, chief China economist at Goldman Sachs."

"After inheriting an economy in free-fall and skyrocketing violent crime, President Biden is proud to hand his successor the best-performing economy on earth, the lowest violent crime rates in over 50 years, and the lowest border crossings in over four years."

Oh sure, 20 people holding 10% of a nation’s GDP is completely how a normal, healthy economy functions. Nothing to see here! Totally fine that a handful of individuals control wealth equivalent to the output of millions of workers.

Who needs balance, fairness, or, you know, basic economic sanity when you can have a system that funnels obscene amounts of wealth into the pockets of a few? Absolutely normal, nothing dystopian about this at all!

„Israel leveled hundreds of buildings. Shelling has prompted the burning of olive, banana & citrus farmlands. Restaurants and other businesses have closed, leaving thousands without jobs. The World Bank estimates that the war has cost $8.5 billion in damages. The conflict cut the nation’s gross domestic product by 6.6 percent this year, the bank said this month.“

"The wealth of empirical evidence showing that, beyond a certain threshold, financial sector growth harms the wider economy...History has shown time and time again that beyond a certain point, the financial sector can only continue to grow by taking excessive risks and increasing the economy’s debt burden until the inevitable collapse.”

Excerpt from a letter by 50 economists and policy experts warning Reeves against City deregulation.

If you like astrology, it will make you happy to know that United Healthcare, and the scam that is American for-profit health insurance in general, is probably about to get a kick in the a$$ from Karma Herself.

"Given the corruption out there, you can personally expect (and we can all collectively expect) 2025 and 2026 to revolve the karma for those at fault."

The system is unsustainable. We all know it.

UNITEDHEALTH IS NOW ON A FAMOUS ‘STUCK RECORD’ KARMA CYCLE. The past is coming for them, and it all starts in January 2025.

In this feature I will look at the South Node in Virgo (public health) and why the murder of the UnitedHealth CEO will lead straight to a 2025-2026 cycle.

PUTIN’S GEOPOLITICAL CATASTROPHE IN SYRIA: #TRUMP AND UKRAINE Vlog 888: War in #Ukraine

When #putin launched his mission to support #assad in #Syria, many russians didn’t understand why. russian state TV claimed it was vital for the #economy, saying controlling Syria would block rival pipelines. Now, a #pipeline from #Qatar, #Iraq, and Syria might gain attention, making #russia’s #NordStream's less relevant. This gives the #EU more ...

Ronald Reagan’s real legacy, charted and graphed. Spoiler: It’s not the bedtime story we’ve been told.

A visual breakdown of the inequality, debt, and mass incarceration still shaping our lives.

'Trickle-down' economics was never real.

A collage of seven charts critiquing socioeconomic trends tied to Ronald Reagan’s presidency, each marked with his face & arrows highlighting the 1980s: 

1. A chart shows rising income inequality from 1947 to 2017, with disparities widening in the early 1980s. 
2. A graph compares healthcare spending to life expectancy, with the U.S. diverging in 1985 due to high costs & limited gains. 
3. A chart shows the top marginal tax rate dropping sharply during Reagan’s presidency. 
4. A graph tracks federal debt as a percentage of GDP, which begins rising steeply in the 1980s. 
5. A chart highlights growing U.S. debt in the 1980s, both in 2014 dollars & as a percentage of GDP. 
6. A chart compares tuition, income, & minimum wage growth in Illinois since 1970, with tuition surging in the early 1980s. 
7. Two graphs on incarceration show prison populations rising sharply after Reagan’s 1980s "War on Drugs." 

Charts reveal long-term impacts of Reagan-era policies on inequality, debt, & incarceration.

Trump vows to impose 25% tariff on all products from Canada and Mexico. Good thing Liberals destroyed the relationship with China so Canada won't have any leverage against the US in the coming trade war. 🤡

The US Treasury 2y/10y curve has re-inverted. How long will this streak run?

#Trump #Musk #Ramaswamy have huge ambitions no humility about what they are undertaking. What they have talked about amounts to wholesale attack on federal agencies designed to eliminate thousands of #regulations, reduce the federal #workforce by an order of magnitude that could cripple the delivery of vital services, effect cost savings that would amount to nearly 1/3 of the #federal #budget or the entire #discretionary part of the budget #government #economy #democracyhttps://wapo.st/4fHN3FA


The US election is far from the first right wig wing recently, but it's one we really need to understand with brutal honesty.

Inflation has been hurting working people and scared many working class and middle class Americans. The situation is similar in Europe, where the left has lost election after election.

In the 80s socialism was a strong current in European politics. And in the USA, unions could look for protection from the democrats.

What has happened is a neo-liberal orthodoxy has taken over most leftist parties and socialist parties in Europe. The left used to be a voice for anti-capitalism, against neoliberalism, and a voice for protecting working class jobs and social benefits.

As 'socialist' parties, the Labour party and Democrats have abandoned this (in as much as they ever followed it) the predominant orthodoxy has been liberal economics with minimum protection for workers. Where parties were against NAFTA or trade liberalisation now these parties are the most enthusiastic neoliberals.

So is it surprising that workers across Europe and North America have abandoned parties that previously claimed to represent their views.

And is it surprising that the right has seen the opportunity and stolen the clothes of the left. And combined anti-neoliberal rhetoric with ethnonationalism, and managed to attract sections of the working and middle classes that normally are concerned with economic justice. People just don't trust the US Democrats, UK Labour or socialist parties on the European mainland any more.
