Benn Jordan’s video, You Are Witnessing the Death of American Capitalism, talks about how American companies and investors operate today.

Lots of companies are no longer trying to convince investors that they can increase profits and, therefore, give a cut to investors. They instead try to convince investors that they can increase their valuation, their stock price. Essentially, if investors buy a stock now they could sell it for a profit later. Who are they going to sell that stock to? Other investors of course! So you really do end up in this game where investors are in their own little world just lying to each other.

The game I wanted to say was already said, so I’ll go with a movie! The 2018 Korean film “Burning”.

Mulroney and the Progressive Conservatives lead the government from 1984 to 1993. So, yup! Fun fact, Mulroney was also accused of accepting $300,000 from the chairman of Airbus in exchange for awarding Airbus an Air Canada contract for 34 planes before it was privatized.

News stories like this arent helping US tourism, but this lady isn’t a tourist. She lives and works in the US, has a US work visa, and an “I-360” visa. Her work visa was renewed but her other visa was still on hold for some reason. She left the US to visit Canada and was stopped on the way back into the US because her I-360 visa wasn’t valid. Ironically, she works at a maximum security prison.

The headline doesn’t seem to match the article.

one of PayPal’s acquiring banks decided to stop processing any Steam transactions, which cut off PayPal on Steam for a number of currencies

As of early July, the currencies that can still use PayPal on Steam include EUR, CAD, GBP, JPY, AUD and USD.

It seems like a bank that processes PayPal payments in minor currencies has stopped processing transactions for Steam because of the content it hosts. Shouldn’t people be mad at this bank, not Steam?

Honestly, I think that would suck quite a bit. I would have the intelligence and experience of an adult trapped in the body of an 8 year old and dependent on my parents. I wouldn’t be able to live independently for years. It would also be difficult to speak and act like an 8 year old. I have a university degree and an 8 year old with university level education would probably make me some weird child prodigy. Not only would I be dependent on my parents, but everyone would be pushing for me to be some genius by the time I’m an adult. I’d eventually grow up to be a huge disappointment. So really I’d kind of just be reliving the past!

The only saving grace is that I might be able to make some money off investing in tech companies and crypto before their drastic increase in value. At least I wouldn’t need to work my entire life.

I use “I’ll have what I’m having!” all the time

RM from kpop boy band BTS did the same thing. Although his original stage name was “Rap Monster” so I don’t blame him for changing it.

Grok, is this true?
