i wasn't insinuating that either of you are into that, cos you're not as far as i know, but I KNOW that you both know what it means (just like me, curious mind., etc., )

One for @sus and his recent focus on the Newsom family.



There's a lot of back and forth on whether whatever's being done in response to the SVB collapse counts as a bailout, but I think this guy's got the right idea.

agree, people who run banks will never learn their lesson if they don't get punished for mismanagement. at the same time, bailing out workers directly instead is totally unrealistic. it would take ages for the government identify all the employees of every company that had an account, and how much would they compensate each worker? a month's salary? six months? a year? what about all the staff who work on commission, how would you be able to project what that would be?

at least it was entertaining to see the smug tech industry libertarians, who always push for loosening banking regulations, spend all weekend begging to be bailed out. they're so full of shit, typical of the sort who want government out of their lives until they need help. fuck 'em and their "don't tread on me" cosplay.

and the craziest thing about Gavin Newsom is he used to be married to Kimberly Guilfoyle.

"Socialism for bankers, the free market for everyone else", as the saying went in 2008. Looks like it's as current as ever.
