For those new to the game, there is ZERO evidence that "resistance", "trendline", "Fibonacci", "shooting star", & similar concepts predict anything in mkts. It is simply, like astrology or Modern Portfolio Theory, an anxiety reduction scheme. https://t.co/FInSFd0YO0 — PolitiTweet.org

I have NO respect for someone careless who suddenly becomes "thoughtful" in response to public pressure. Note: There is $100 million in play as an incentive to be "balanced". You can care about your conscience or your reputation, not both. — PolitiTweet.org

There is government overreach. Military spending is influenced by contractors. Agricultural policy favors rent-seeking. Bankers use taxpayers as backstop. The Fed ... But this is a pandemic & do not conflate NECESSARY Governmental action w/overreach. NO OVERREACH != ANARCHY — PolitiTweet.org

2/ In other words, unless you work for the Federal Gov., it is effectively a TESTING MANDATE. What is the problem with "testing mandates" ? Even more incoherent: Some anarcho-capitalists even want to use the government to coerce PRIVATE companies to NOT require mandates. — PolitiTweet.org

Pple complaining abt U.S. "vaxx mandates" don't know what they are talking abt. 1- The Federal private corp. mandate is "vaxx or TESTING". What is the problem with TESTING ? 2- The gov employee mandate is just vaxx. Explain to me why an libertarian wd work for the gvt? Idiots. — PolitiTweet.org
