    America is so fucking cooked. The tech oligarchs just trying to pump their stock, the pedo in chief trying to keep the cap on oil price surge while also trying to brush away inflation to lower rates and keep the markets going-- meanwhile no one can afford anything except the top 10%.

    Just let it crash already. They will do whatever they can to keep it going until after midterms but it is running on fumes and will make the crash worse when it happens. Just like is happening to oil.
