[Edgemaster]

Wow, for calling somebody brain-dead you'd think that you would at least try to come up with a statement that wasn't c/p'd straight from the latest edgy shitpost thread in pol.

i'm the one shitposting here? k

Why is everyone voting for fucking bernie sanders? he's a socialist. shows that most people on this site are either autistic 12 year olds or dindu nuffins.

Because they are thieves that want to steal other people's money to go party in college for 4 years and get a shit degree.

We also have the largest holdings of gold in the world. We have 288 million ounces of gold with germany as the runner up with 119 million ounces. It's not like we're struggling. Our gold reserves alone are worth 313 billion, which is nearly enough to pay off all of our debt in one fell swoop.

Debt is 19 tril with 100+ tril in liabilities. The US govt hasn't been using gold-backed currency for a long time so that politicians could keep buying themselves more votes with people's own money.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.

Most people are only in it for the dank yearly paycheck. 400,000$ per year for the president, plus 50,000 for random shit (listed as expenses), plus free, absolutely grade A no holds barred healthcare coverage (they literally have a staff of people at the white house just for the president's medical needs), 202,000$ per year every year after they leave office until they die (except it's taxable). Plus, the fact that you were the president opens up so many possible avenues for making money. Public speaking is HUGE (clinton made 10 million from it), they dont have to worry about needing anything because they just tell a runner boy to go grab them coffee or a filet mignon or whatever other expensive crap they want and they just go right ahead and provide it, and you get a team of armed bodyguards watching for anyone trying to do anything even after you leave office.

basically what im saying is that its a comfy job, and as long as you dont get impeached you will be set for life afterwards.

People who run for president aren't looking for a "money" or "comfy" job - People who are shooting for that can just be a US senator or representative. As president, you have veto ability, pardon ability, and the military at your hands. In essence, when you are the biggest crime boss in the world, you don't need money because everything is free.

Being a good business man isn't only about risking your cash. He could have invested, and he could have lost as well. He has very little investments and instead, makes money by "lending out his name to others".... As long as he's making more than he is spending, he's a good business man.

If he were, hypothetically, making 1bil/year but also spending 1bil/year, that's not good, but it could be worse... if he's making 1bil/year but spending 2bil/year then he is a horrible business man.

You're a member on sythe, you know you just have to avoid some offers because you question them.... or... maybe you've lost money on here because you throw cash at every unbelievable offer someone makes. lol. But it's the same concept... He's more cautious than most, has enough to live on, enough for 2 - 4 more generations to live on very comfortably... Hell, if I made 1 billion dollars period, I'd clock out and never leave my house again... He's stilll making money off just his name though, so kudos for that.


Though some of his speeches are a little bit idiotic, some of them are exactly what America needs... But as I said in my last post, it doesn't matter too much because no matter who is elected, there's a very slim chance of them doing the things they said they would that got them elected - That's just how the system works. Lie for votes, get elected, fuck the general population.

He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Instead of just throwing into the stock market where he would get 7% returns yearly he invested into businesses and made much less than that. One of his biggest things he parrots is that he is a successful businessman so he knows how run stuff but he is pretty bad at it if he failed miserably to beat the market. It means that his businesses on average do significantly worse than the average public business which means he is pretty terrible at running them.

confirmed retard.

Do you know anything about the bankruptcy regarding the Taj Mahal casinos?

Trump was in the hole 3 billion so he made a deal with banks who he was endebted to lose half his equity and they keep half. However, this also meant that he didn't have half of the debt. He also did this with 4 other businesses. H pretty much filed for bankruptcy after making a certain amount of money and being in "debt" only to make "deals" with banks that actually work in his favor by taking the debts off of him and to the banks, which is now their problem and not his. He accumulates his debt by selling bonds to the public and not being able to pay them off later (he isn't actually losing anything here, he ISNT paying back the loans) and lets the banks handle the resulting debt. The guy is shrewd. He knows how to play the system.

Don't run off your tard spout next time if you don't know what you're talking about.

Thats just like the shitty meme where people say that America is trillions in debt. Do you actually know why? Like, basic high school econ? We are in debt because we use a fractional reserve banking system. Wikipedia says the following "Fractional-reserve banking is the practice whereby a bank accepts deposits, and holds reserves that are a fraction of the amount of its deposit liabilities. Reserves are held at the bank as currency, or as deposits in the bank's accounts at the central bank. Fractional-reserve banking is the current form of banking practiced in most countries worldwide". This is also the system our government uses. We "borrow" money (just printing it and using it) and use it, trusting that it will keep its value. As it stands, the dollars value is on par with other currencies like the euro and pound sterling (the pound is worth around 1.50$, the euro is .93$, so we are actually stronger than the euro) so we can still trade with others because our dollar is worth what it is.

This also means that our economy is worth as much as our debt (gee, real complicated). more wikipedia: "The United States is the world's largest national economy, representing 22% of nominal global GDP and 17% of global GDP (PPP) . The United States' GDP was estimated to be $17.710 trillion as of Q1 2015." I just checked the US debt clock, and man, the proof is in the pudding. It says for current GDP (gross domestic product, the sum of all the earnings of our citizens for one year) we are at 18.157 trillion and for our debt we are at 18.6 trillion (we do actually have some debt then, but nowhere near what people say we do).

We also have the largest holdings of gold in the world. We have 288 million ounces of gold with germany as the runner up with 119 million ounces. It's not like we're struggling. Our gold reserves alone are worth 313 billion, which is nearly enough to pay off all of our debt in one fell swoop.

TLDR trump didnt file bankruptcy because he sucks at business, he did it for mad money gainz and also some shit about the us economy read if you care

He does suck at business and his filings for bankruptcy show his incompetence or his blatantly disregard for commitments.

I wouldn't vote for any of them, but in reality Donald Trump will probably win. Prepare for a war with China and anyone else who doesn't support Trump's business decisions. There's a reason he plans to build up our military stronger than it has ever been before, because he plans on using it.

Also, he wants to put Tariffs on all imports from China. It wouldnt be wise to obstruct trade with our biggest loaner of money. I dont think Trump knows what free-markets are.
