Re: This can't be good, Elon Musk's latest tweet
I read elsewhere that Tesla is papered with Chinese and US dollars, and tons of shitcoin, all of which are going to zero.

He seems to be quite aloof in his thinking patterns, which makes me question how he got his wealth(I know the story), who is helping or controlling him, and looking at his past love interest, where he stands spiritually. Too much about him don't make sense, and even less gives me a good vibe.
 Quoting: Widge


Tesla is a huge scam

Let me explain


Musk is on the governemnt teat with carbon credits for his "zero emission" cars, which he then sells and "invests" the money in his consistently LOSING ventures.

.

BUT the thing is his cars are anything but zero emissions, in fact a Tesla is responsible for the production of more CO2 than a ford f-250 super-duty because the processes used to generate the lions share of the electricity for them is far more polluting per killowatt than an internal combustion engine.

68 percent of our electricity is made by burning coal and natural gas. Do you know what a windmill blade is made from?

The same thing Musks cars are made mostly from; oil.


Plastic is made from hydrocarbons pumped from the ground.

Even solar panels end up polluting more that just burning Fossil fuels in the long run. It takes energy from somewhere o mine the materials used in heir manufacture and to produce them, and eventually to dispose of the spent ones. Then there are the batteries

If you cant hold it in your hand it is valueless. The only value it has is what you can be tricked into believing it does.

Bitcoin is no more valuable than monopoly money.

The scam has to end. You cannot produce wealth from thin air.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33011927


Whether you hold something in your hand or not, it can all be made worthless.

The people in charge of this world can make anything worthless, and they can make it worth high value. Its not up to you. Its up to them. You arent in charge. You have no say in the matter. You might think you do, but you dont.

You are under the illusion that because you can hold something it makes it worth something, it doesnt.

You can hold a rock. The rock can be made to be worth a lot and hold high value. It can also be made worthless.

This is true for everything.

You might think something is valuable, for yourself .... and everyone else might think its worthless. But means something to you.


Value, worth, and importance is all in the mind. Its not real.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80608675


No, WRONG. Some things have intrinsic value and cannot be manipulated for long. You can say Gold . silver, LEAD, or Copper is worthless all you want but that changes not a thing.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33011927


No. You've only been told to believe that.

There are only two things you absolutely need in life to survive. Food and water. Those are the only two things of any value (real value).

The rest you've simply been told all your life, brainwashed, to believe has value. Work, school, money, property, career, retirement, investments, etc, etc, has been programmed into you from birth.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80608675

Things which are useful for something and will always be useful have intrinsic value that cannot be manipulated, not in reality.

You can say an ounce of gold is worth one dollar or ten thousand dollars, but it still has the same value and has throughout history. It is those "dollars" whose value is begin manipulated, it's a scam.
Since gold doesn't oxidize or react chemically it is more or less durable and forever, and it's value is too because its uses are forever too..

He bought bitcoin at $30,000 earlie this year. It is $47,000 currently. Bitcoin is very volatile though. It suits the long term investor rather than the trader.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33011927



You can hold a stinking pile of rubbish in your hand. It isn't worth anything, because no one wants it.

So the value a thing has is what another person is willing to pay for it.

Another value is if it is a tool that can make your life better. Computer programs for example are just 1s and 0s in a computer, yet some of these programs make billions of dollars for their owners.

The value of Bitcoin as a tool is it lets you buy and sell without interference from any government. Also it stops governments stealing your money because they can't print infinite amounts of it.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77424905

Bitcoin has no value
NONE. The only reason people buy it is because right now they can still sell it.


Lot of stupid fucking people, and the fact bitcoin has went up so much is indicative of a lot of suckers getting taken to the cleaners, MANY MANY more suckers than winners.

Bitcoin is like a game, and when the time comes the dealer will stack the deck.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33011927



Bitcoin is worth $47,000 right now.

If you had 1 Bitcoin you would not give it to me for anything less than its current market value.

Re: This can't be good, Elon Musk's latest tweet


yeah that's called deflation
 Quoting: ^TrInItY^


Boom. Exactly.

He is talking about DEFLATION. It's so funny that everyone is focused on INFLATION when inflation is, in fact, a myth. It's not going to happen if you understand the underpinnings of the economy.

Long periods of inflation, like we've just had (since Bretton Woods), are always followed by deflation. Think Great Depression. That was a deflationary event, not inflationary. And, ladies and gentlemen, deflation is 10x worse than inflation.

I suggest that you read the writings (rantings?) of an old user here. He has been spot on in everything that he wrote before he went crazy (he literally went batshit crazy, unfortunately, about 10 years ago). BTW, there is a user on GLP who is pretending to be him, don't be fooled. The real user was not a pro-vax shill for the government.

He calls the rich the "Top" and the poor the "Bottom". It's not quite that simple but I'm not going to rewrite his manifesto here. The Top sucks from the Bottom via inflation, and has done so since the 1940s.
 Quoting: Shaun Kaven

The Industrial War Machine is about to collapse.

hf
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80723011


Yrs, but the American ingenuity will be able to thrive in a way that gas Bern stymied and impeded by hegemonious military industrial monopolies, diverting revitalization funds for creation into destruction war funds to keep the slavers owning slaves. Of course this was unsustainable, so they kill off many and relocate many and the slave master reset normally happens, bit this isn't normally and that's not gonna happen, both the mass cull and the reset the way the planned it will not succeed.
Biblically, the reason the low will be raised and inherit the world, is that they could have chosen evil for gain,but really do care about others, and so chose right, and they will make the best leaders. The high become low, and some to everlasting shame,are those who didn't murder and rape but profited by stealing another's labor, for greedy ill gotten gains, userers, all to be elite they harmed a brother, so that they would be master over another, justice would be for the masters to be servants, since humble good leaders would treat servants well.

Re: This can't be good, Elon Musk's latest tweet
Here is what happened when Nixon disconnected the dollar from gold:


1974 $158.76
1973 $97.12
1972 $58.17
1971 $40.80
1970 $35.96
1969 $41.10
(source: [link to www.macrotrends.net (secure)]

Now compare this with gasoline during the same period:


1969 $0.35
1970 $0.36
1971 $0.36
1972 $0.36
1973 $0.39
1974 $0.53

(Source: [link to www.creditdonkey.com (secure)]

Gas went up 36 percent and gold went up 350 percent.

Neither the gas nor the gold actually became worth less or more and huge disparity in the rate of inflation of the prices of these commodities clearly indicates that the dollar is not real and has only the value you believe it does, to purchase ANYTHING. Neither gold nor gas changed in their intrinsic value, besides of course the minor supply and demand fluctuations that eventually even out.

We are entering a deflationary phase.

Failures bring on deflation, for example the Great Depression in the 1930's and the Great Recession 2008.

How do you explain the following in the current economy (if you put in inflation, you show me you don't know what you're talking about):
1) Increase in unemployment
2)Drop in wages
3)Decline in economic activities e.g. industrial production, real income, retail and wholesale sales and GDP
4) Falling assets
