    Presidential Elections

    Objectively on OBBBA: Positive - No taxes on tips and OT is great for those that earn it. Not sure how much that reduces revenue for the Fed and wonder about how it will be abused... ahem @zubs :) - Tax benefits for R&D - SALT cap increase (except for qwerty) Negative - Cuts to health and...

    How soon until Bitcoin crashes?

    Like you said... its utility is to enable untraceable monetary exchange in the grey and even black areas of society. So it's very difficult to say that its value will disappear because unfortunately... criminality is a constant. It's like those coins in John Wick. :)

    How soon until Bitcoin crashes?

    >> and if I picked all the correct lottery numbers today, I’d be a billionaire next week🤷🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️😂😂 Not exactly the same but I get what you are saying. Like Irvine real estate, value is defined by the people... and regardless of what you and I think... demand raises it to a commodity or fiat...

    ICE or EV?

    Even high-end EV models that don't get the Fed credit people prefer over ICE: https://electrek.co/2025/07/08/porsche-is-already-selling-lots-more-electric-macans-than-gas-ones/

    How soon until Bitcoin crashes?

    Like morekaos, I am crypto averse but over a medium haul, the returns are boggling. Someone here had to have bought some just to try. For example, if you bought in 2011, it would be 100000x the value. In 2015, 250-700x... even in late 2017 when this thread was started, you could still make...

    President Trump

    I don't mind the EV credit cut but also cutting solar and battery credits is shortsighted and maybe that's why Elon is no longer BFF. This OpEd has some good points...

    Most dated looking interior?

    Off topic but didn't realize Rocket bought Redfin until I clicked that link. I also like natural stone but it is no longer trendy.

    ICE or EV?

    Imagine how well these would sell in the US. Just doesn't make sense from a cost perspective... Yet.

    President Trump

    qwerty is safe. Although we have a reputation for attacking nuclear stuff that isn't nuclear. I'm surprised Iran hasn't retaliated terror-style... maybe they know that Trump will bomb them into extinction? Crazy has it's benefits. Let's see how the tariffs shake out and if the BBB passes. I...

    ICE or EV?

    If you read my first sentence... you would clearly understand how Toyota business works. Toyota is making EVs, moreso abroad then here... partly due to the high cost to make/sell EVs here (again value/quality). Once EV manufacturing is where they can support lower prices with higher margins...

    EV/Plug-in/Other vehicles

    So not "all" powered by coal. That's why I asked him to fact check... because not many things are "all" or "never" (like certain people like to claim). And I agree that EVs are not all about climate... it's also about convenience, better driving experience, less maintenance etc.... IYKYK.

    EV/Plug-in/Other vehicles

    Did you fact check your coal opinion? And even if true, at least it's not fossil fuel on top of coal.

    President Trump

    Depends on perspective right? Most thought storming Iraq was good but with no signs of nukes... bad. Most might think bombing nuke facilities in Iran is good... but if no nukes... what then? And I dislike the notion that the left is saying Trump declared war on Iraq... even I know that's not...
