Recall the mantra coming out of the World Economic Forum: "You will own nothing and be happy." What they neglected to tell us was that they will be the owners and we will be their serfs.

Well, you make it sound like it’s a bad thing or some kind of terrible secret.

Al Sharpton,

Stock market has multiplied 7x in the last 15 years, more than that in the past 25.

I have little sympathy for the intentionally ignorant poor.

PeopleUnited says

High cost of housing is not a “bubble” it is permanent serfdom for lower and middle class, just as the globalists intended.

It's a bubble.

Bubble inflated by low rates for many years. Artificial asset inflation.

I agree that high house prices create a permanent serf class, but I'm not sure how much of that is calculated and how much is just the fact that people with houses make all the laws, and they all want the cost of housing to increase. So their "solution" is always to increase mortgage lending, and never to lower house prices.

Banks certainly want everyone in as much debt as possible, because your debt is their asset. Your interest payments are their income.

So we've got an informal conspiracy of all the banks and everyone who "owns" a house, including all Congressmen.

Get private equity groups, investment banks, and foreigners out of the residential housing market. Return Glass-Steagall. And end the Fed’s direct ‘buying’ of equities and bonds, via Blackrock and others. Then we might see a return to 3x income affordability in housing. You can never outcompete a 10T investment behemoth with an unhealthy interest in rentier serfdom and access to Fed money.

Trump’s on the right track with removing govt subsidies for immigrant housing (and the illegal immigrants themselves). I’ve never heard him talk about the financialization of housing though, and that’s the central issue IMO.

goofus says

Return Glass-Steagall.

Abso-freakin' lutely. Another proven disaster. Nothing but wild swings since we "Tore down the Wall" and "Deregulated to compete in the Globohomo World Economy".

Make banking boring again. Make lending as equally about getting Ms. Roberts to take out a $1000 CD in return for a toaster, and banks fight over deposits. Not just running to the Fed to get cash to loan.

I know we disagree on this but that's why I don't want low interest rates right now. People are so used to low rates that normal 6-7% rates are considered obscenely high. On the other hand I want reindustrialization and the Debt financed at a low rate.

Really think 5-10 years we're going to be looking at an entirely different R/E market.

The car model I drive now sells for more than 2x what it sold for 20 years ago, and probably won’t last as long either.

This is not a bubble. It is the new world order deliberately devaluing the dollar through money printing, wealth redistribution to the upper echelons, wage stagnation though outsourcing and illegal immigration. There are other factors as well but this is not a conspiracy to inflate prices it is a conspiracy to take control away from people and concentrate it into the globalists. They don’t want you to own or control anything. They want you to work, neglect your health, sell your souls and support the narrative, then die when you are no longer useful to them.

Patrick says

and they all want the cost of housing to increase

Housing has become financialized. It is an asset, like stonks and bonds. It can provide shelter, of course, for somebody, but not necessarily the people who own the asset.

Houses, cars, groceries are not expensive. Your money is just worth less than half of what it was 20 years ago.

About 40% of homes have no mortgage.

Looks like they got him right in the carotid. If he survives, he will never be the same, the blood volume was pouring out. Somebody would have to have applied tamponade immediately. It seems to be fatal but I suppose miracles can happen.

Sadly, that appears to be the case.

When will the Mockingbird stooges be frog marched off the camera for their lies.

That would be nice, but hopium? Crisis, Confusion, Control? The shock wave is emanating and reflecting.

Surviving the ostensible neck wound would be quite the feat.

The disinformation begins.

Bald dude just a CIA gladio distraction?

Why did he decide to provoke the shooter?

So, what is it?

And, drum roll, the politicization and demonizing. The stories will fragment from here on out as the fog of bullshit and distraction.

Ceffer says

So, what is it?

Picking a fight with an armed guy was a mistake.

What are the details about how he picked the fight?

Anyway, we have a new martyr along with Iryna.

Another one of those 'Building 7' journalistic discrepancies. They prepared the headline before the event then released it?

Trump declares the death.

The imposed chaos and crisis. Then the confusion. Now, what will be the control paradigm? 200 yards means a pro shot.

Blame game is on.

Does this surprise anyone? Not a knock on Charlie. A bit cocky and I would be considered on his side, but is this a shock?

That's why these guys have security. Unfortunately it didn't work in this situation. I'd say the same if Cink Uber or whatever his name is was shot and killed. The right is soft, but this may stir up some young fellas to do something. I don't want them to, but it's likely. Restrain yourself. Nothing gets fixed knocking out a famous person. Do the work that you think needs to be done that doesn't involve killing.

His tent says prove me wrong and he was speaking about how evil they are and they proved him right.

Of course, what can be trusted at all of any 'official' report.

Not surprised because the left is extremely violent.

They are experts at projection.

Charlie was a real American, Christian, Great Communicator. Can't believe he was only 31.

Some people are happy, they are the enemy:

Military or Intel, take your choice. It is funny some are saying that it were a leftist, they would have shot themselves in the foot first.

As we expect now, the weirdness gets weirder. Also strange, the picture of the long haired guy on the cellphone DISAPPEARED as I was posting this.

"Houston, we have another patsy." Baffle everybody with patsys?
