Go on believing in supply-side economics and the wisdom of this tax bill. If you still believe in both of these things, you're incorrigibly ignorant and I'll throw in the towel trying to educate you. Keep on getting your economic and statistics education from Fox & Friends and Limbaugh. They've put on on the intellectual plane you're now standing on.

LOL! This is a transparent attempt to back out of the discussion gracelessly because you've had your ass handed to you. Have a nice day, Mr. Anecdote.

Huh. Must have missed where this happened. Your rantings were, as always, roundly dismissed as, well, rantings. Facts are never on your side, Bucko, so why do you bother?

You're delusional. What you understand about economics and statistics could fit in a shot glass with room enough left for a nice snort.

A shot glass the size of a swimming pool, no doubt.

You've demonstrated your complete cluelessness about economics and statistics time and time again. The quicker you realize that Limbaugh and Fox News aren't the fonts of all wisdom, the better off you'll be. In the meantime, you'll continue to amuse us with your clueless sycophancy. The following old adage applies to you in spades: Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool than to Speak and Remove All Doubt.

Ray Dalio: 70% chance of recession before 2020

I'm sure Whell will call the head of the world's largest hedge fund a "lefty".

I don't know anything about his politics, but this was the same guy who predicted that "the stock markets around the would tank if Trump won". He was dead wrong about that, and has always seemed to be the type of guy who was willing to make bold predictions - it mattered not if they were ultimately correct - in order to keep his company's name in the news.

I'm sure you'll interpret his latest remarks for your own purposes, but I personally would put little stock in his latest comments.

And you've demonstrated that you just hate not having the last word in a discussion. You must be an absolute joy to be around for an in-person discussion.

You've tried to make the same hollow points above many, many times. I stated many times that I work during the day so my opportunity to listen to radio is pretty limited (though I do experience the joy of visiting here during the day when on break ). Based on your comments, I suspect you listen to Limbaugh far more than I ever could. I've also stated here on a number of occasions that we don't have cable here, so we don't get Fox News. But none of that stops you from your pointless, meaningless commentary.

In other words, you continue to remove all doubt.....ever day....with nearly every post. But please keep it up.
