Dennis Muilenberg failed at everything he touched, and still somehow ascended to CEO at Boeing. 90s - lost the F-35 to Lockheed Martin (great documentary on PBS: Battle of the X-planes) 2000s - Oversaw Future Combat Systems and SBINet (Secure Border Initiative Network): 2 programs that sucked up Billions from the government and never delivered a working product. 2010s - The Max was designed under his culture as CEO. And THAT guy was paid Millions? You literally couldn’t have done anything worse than he did by just picking someone off the street and letting them randomly make decisions.

> My plan is to buy the dip which will occur in February due to what I expect to be a nasty debt ceiling fight and government shutdown. I'm 100% long and mostly onboard with your thesis. But there will be no debt ceiling fight. The debt ceiling is suspended until 2025. There might be a government funding fight, but that seems pretty normal and I don't expect it to create much of a dip. * [PBS: Biden signs bipartisan bill that suspends debt limit until 2025, cuts spending](https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/biden-signs-bipartisan-bill-that-suspends-debt-limit-until-2025-cuts-spending) * [Reuters: US public debt tops $34 trln as Congress heads into funding fight](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/total-us-public-debt-tops-34-trillion-congress-heads-into-funding-fight-2024-01-02/)

This article/video is what sparked the idea of wanting to invest more in infrastructure companies around grid updates. I think I've shared it with you, but sharing it again, since it's really well done: [https://www.vox.com/videos/22685707/climate-change-clean-energy-high-voltage-transmission-lines](https://www.vox.com/recode/2021/7/3/22560691/power-grid-climate-change-heat-wave) Living in a world where there are ton of great/informative information out there, there is so many places to be able to get inspired to invest in things. It's even like how Peter Lynch got into one of this investments: >Now vice-chairman of Fidelity Investments, Lynch has lived and breathed his strategy, even choosing one company, Hanes, in the 1970s because his wife bought and loved its new L’Eggs pantyhose line—the first department-store-quality pantyhose sold to American women via supermarkets. “I did a little bit of research,” Lynch told PBS’s Frontline. “I found out the average woman goes to the supermarket or a drugstore once a week. And they go to a woman’s specialty store or department store once every six weeks. And all the good hosiery, all the good pantyhose is being sold in department stores. They were selling junk in the supermarkets. They were selling junk in the drugstores.”

Yeah, I saw the PBS Frontline documentary. A great explanation of the timeline to explain our economic situation. Significant bank collapses like Silvergate Bank, Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, First Republic Bank, and Pacific Western Bank were the wake up call that incompetence comes with real consequences. Bank runs happen. The real question is have we seen the worst of the bank collapses or was 2023 only the beginning? The stock market continues to party on the AI hype train and future Fed rate cuts. On top of the recent years of relatively high inflation, we could be sleepwalking into a Lost Decade.

The biographies and documentaries of Warren Buffett say that he was obsessed with how to earn money as a young child - in other words, he was the king of side hustles. Warren brought his very first IRS tax return (14 years old) to a PBS interview: [https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/warren-buffetts-first-tax-return-filed-age-14](https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/warren-buffetts-first-tax-return-filed-age-14) PBS scanned the tax return and attachment: [https://www.scribd.com/document/352300196/Warren-Buffet-s-1944-tax-return#fullscreen&from\_embed](https://www.scribd.com/document/352300196/Warren-Buffet-s-1944-tax-return#fullscreen&from_embed) Timeless advice, but know that Warren Buffett was never an ordinary kid.

PBS? Come on man you can’t be serious. I have never ever ever heard of a situation where an individual forgoes their life to obsessively watch PBS. Social media and entertainment are not the same thing. Sometimes they cross paths but overall it’s a completely different thing. Having fun is not the same as mindless doom scrolling. Children’s brains are being damaged long term by the major social media apps. And the main part of the lawsuit is going to come from internal communications in Facebook showing that they knew exactly what they were doing and proceeded on anyways.

[Agriculture subsidies](https://www.politico.com/news/2020/07/14/donald-trump-coronavirus-farmer-bailouts-359932)? Are you gonna tell those rural conservative communities they no longer get their millions in [airport subsidies](https://www.transportation.gov/policy/aviation-policy/small-community-rural-air-service/essential-air-service)? Hamstringing PBS and head start ain't gonna make a dent. [Eglin Air Force Base](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eglin_Air_Force_Base) is in Gaetz's district and is a huge employer there. Is he going to be cool if Pentagon cuts affect his district? Are we going to ask Medicare recipients to take a haircut, yet continue to allow [private jet owners](https://l33jets.com/resources/blog/tax-cr) to deduct their purchase, thanks to the Trump/Ryan tax cuts? Surely you have actual sound policy plans and aren't just clinging to vapid generalized "we much cut spending" blather. Gaetz can release a thoughtful vetted plan that marries spending cuts with some tax hikes on those who have most benefited from the bull market. Until then, he's a useless hack.

As a Gen Xer, I remember when we had four channels. ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS. Fox came along and it was a big deal. Then cable, 28 freaking channels. Mind blowing. Then digital cable and the number got into the hundreds. Now with the streaming services it's unreal because you have access to almost anything. But I am still plagued by the same problem I had when we had 4 channels. There ain't nothing on. It's like I'm paralyzed by infinite choices and I need TV execs to tell me what I need to watch. Good on you for ditching Netflix and just renting one off movies. I've never rented a video on the line, but it has to be somewhat like going to Blockbuster in 1995 but even better because every movie is actually in stock. Is that how it feels?

Have you seen the [PBS Frontline documentary "Age of Easy Money"](https://youtu.be/EpMLAQbSYAw?si=ReBk7-FM44W8e-c1)? It's a fairly damning critique of QE and makes the case that, yes, the Fed should've known better and instead buckled to political and other pressures.

I was watching this PBS Frontline episode from 2002 the other day where they were talking to a bunch of people about questions of faith and the presence of God in the wake of 9/11. It was really interesting, but one thing that stood out to me was this dude saying “I just couldn’t believe in this god anymore who blessed America with more than anyone else because we were good people.” And it’s like wait, hold up, did you actually think that was how this shit worked? Do people actually think that? That’s nuts.

Everyone says this but no one can agree on what spending to cut. Biggest items are social security and Medicare. Suggesting to cut that is political suicide as old people vote. Military spending again no one wants to be against the military, your opponent will accuse you of being soft and going to endangered the nation. So then people argue over stuff like PBS funding.Well PBS funding is like 0.001% of the budget it's a rounding error. Even if we could it all it wouldn't even be noticable. Everyone complains about "welfare" , but do we really want to take away school lunches from . Farm program, incredibly unpopular with rural populations and people will argue it's national security, if the USA can't produce enough food it is a matter of national security. Classic welfare is somewhat small percent of the actual budget and sometimes if you cut wellfare you end up paying for it somewhere else , increase crime , Police budgets ECT.

Watch some PBS Frontline re runs on youtube bro Did you hear about Y2K are you prepared?

ShortUSA

I'm working to do the best I can, but I would to read how others get the facts... Firstly, Know history from good sources and life experience. Government websites are still great sources of facts, research Universities as well. Don't behind the bullshit that says otherwise. Great minds don't take government jobs to make less and lie and deceve, they can make much much more in the private sector doing that. Spend very little time consuming any for of "news" or education that is really entertainment. All news has its bias, but some isn't really news at all, it's strictly designed to sell advertising by targeting a demographic. Some examples: Fox News Channel is not even part of the Fox news organization. Fox, the company that includes a large collection of local TV channels, cable channels, etc has a news organization that provides global and national news to all the channels (local, cable, etc). When Fox News started it had four weekday 1 hour long news shows, like many other networks/channels: morning, noon, evening and night. But like most other channels those shows had the lowest ratings, ie, made the least money. Subsequently they were eliminated. At this point there is literally no news on the Fox News Channel. CNN was first and started as a 24/7 news channel. Its ratings were generally not very exciting, but costs low and it worked. And during crisis or big news events, hurricanes, floods, wars, government shutdowns etc etc etc CNNs ratings went through the roof, as did profits. Which is why MSNBC and Fox News were formed, to capture and expand on those profits. MSNBC was mostly news, while Fox News had a few hours a day, but did mostly commentary / entertainment programming. In time it's ratings became the best, and that "success" lead the others to replace news programs with entertainment. I stopped watching. These channels basically cater to people who want to think they're being informed and educated, but much prefer to be entertained, so they tune into the entertainment that provides them the rationalization they're becoming better people and citizens by being informed. Bullshit. Consider financial news channels, they're mostly the same, but there are exceptions, all more boring... Bloomberg Television still focuses mainly on financial news versus entertainment. Most people I suggest watch it don't, they find it more boring, less engaging. Well yes, it's designed to inform not entertain. So it does a better job informing and not as good entertaining. Consider who pays for the ads on these channels, mostly global corporations. Does anyone really think the channels are going reports much of anything negative about them? Hell no. So we hear all the time about poor, poor corporations not able to get enough [cheap] help, incumbered by regulations, paying too much in taxes, etc, etc, etc. Causing economic crisis due to not paying mortgages. Bullshit, we should be sympathetic to people losing homes, not corporations creating the terrible situation that caused it. But then again, when we the last time an average Joe make a multi-million dollar add purchase? PBS News Hour is still decent news, just don't waste time watching the last bit which is always some light weight, feel good story. Fine when you want that, but it's not why I watch the show. There are new (to this about 60 year old) kinds things you can do now to get the real news. When the BLM protests were going on I found local TV channels generally just presented what they witnessed rather than some spinned up story the channel "news" channels seemed compelled to present. So when I heard that things were getting exciting in Portland or Seattle, Chicago, etc I searched for local channels I could stream and watched their news. It was usually very different and matched what friends in the area witnessed, rather than the bullshit on nationwide news channels. FYI, I used Roku for that. Same for war or other foreign news. It's surprising now often you can find an English speaking local news stream, but of course you have to check that is not state sponsored, etc. If you can find one, some newspapers haven't yet gone to total shit. But they're almost extinct.

Watch if you can find "open outcry" an old PBS documentary about it from the Chicago floor. Once you're down there everyday and understand whats going on it's no longer noise. I know a few people in that video though i have not seen them in a long time as I worked there mainy in the natural gas pit in the early to mid 2000s. I got pushed around when I first started too and it was intimidating but once you find your footing and get to know people it was fine. I have too many stories. Great times and great memories.

I can sound all you want me to sound, that’s subjective and if you sat and saw my accounting you would change your mind, but I’m not here to change your mind because I know I have a 0% chance to do so I’m conservative and I don’t use that silly term. Maybe you hang out with silly conservatives, I don’t agree with all of them, but rest assured the people you know do not represent me or the conservatives I hang out with and know. This goes to every group. When dealing with highly educated conservatives, try to use highly educated terms instead. Agenda is applied to any group that has a goal to push. In fact you can apply it to a conservative for example, it is not limited to liberal leaning companies. Fox has an agenda to push, it is a clearly biased news source and for that reason I do not rely on that news source. I try to get my conservative news from less biased sources like PBS and Wall St Journal, they have good non biased conservative news

There are many ways to reduce inflation and I was talking about the President (Biden) and his administration officials. The administration could have proposed and advocated for fiscal policies that aim to control inflation. This includes working with Congress to develop and pass legislation related to taxation and government spending. A good example is the "Inflation Reduction Act" which I mentioned earlier. Since Congress has done nothing to reduce inflation, It relies on FED to tighten monetary policy (QT). FED underestimated the inflation and did nothing till March 2022. Do you even know FED has to submit regular reports to Congress?

I appreciate your input. I must disagree. **DISINFLATION** occurs when price inflation slows down temporarily. This term is commonly used by the [U.S. Federal Reserve](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/f/federalreservesystem.asp) when it wants to describe a period of **slowing inflation**. Unlike **DEFLATION**, this is not harmful to the economy because the inflation rate is reduced marginally over a short-term period ( [The Breadth of Disinflation | San Francisco Fed (frbsf.org)](https://www.frbsf.org/economic-research/publications/economic-letter/2010/december/breadth-disinflation/) ) **DEFLATION** means the actual rate has dropped **BELOW ZERO and has turned NEGATIVE** If we were experiencing actual **DEFLATION** \- The FED would cut rates tomorrow morning in a surprise meeting, and would immediately stop shrinking their balance sheet, lest they collapse the goddamn Republic. ( [The Fed Is Shrinking Its Balance Sheet. What Does That Mean? | Richmond Fed](https://www.richmondfed.org/publications/research/econ_focus/2022/q3_federal_reserve) ) It sounds like the same thing, but it is not. DEFLATION can destroy an economy in 'minutes'. https://preview.redd.it/qeyf8nyc717b1.png?width=1627&format=png&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=62e327033d70a1ca51092b248ed4afeb26dfcf77 In fact, there have only been **TWO DEFLATIONARY** periods in the history of the United States: 1930-1933 2007-2008 [Were There Any Periods of Major Deflation in U.S. History? (investopedia.com)](https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/040715/were-there-any-periods-major-deflation-us-history.asp#:~:text=During%20the%20Great%20Depression%2C%20deflation,years%20of%201930%20and%201933.) If we accept this thread's thesis that we are experiencing **DEFLATION**, then I would highly suggest NOT buying any stocks, holing up in a bunker with some canned food, and preparing for the worst...

It is very entertaining. But it just reinforces the fact you sound "smart" when you are skeptical and blind bullishness is considered silly. I mean Jeremy Grantham is comedic too, Frontline PBS gave him a big platform to spew his bearishness and nothing has come of it. I'm as bearish as they come and consider myself a cynic to my great financial detriment!

I think you are talking about another loan forgiveness for students who were defrauded. [Biden administration announces $3.9 billion in debt cancelation for former ITT Tech students | PBS NewsHour](https://www.pbs.org/newshour/education/biden-administration-announces-3-9-billion-in-debt-cancelation-for-former-itt-tech-students) This should have been forgiven last administration, but it was Biden admin who ended up taking care of this mess. The other one where regular student loans are being forgiven for $10K or $20K is tied up in court because Republicans sued.

Check Youtube PBS Newshour May 23, 2023 at minute marker 21:30 - Mark Zandi Chief Economist for Moody’s Analytics said, “I don’t think Treasury would default on the debt. They have the ability to pay bond holders. It’s a separate accounting system, payment system and they could get that done…”

Flippin through the channels and came across a show called Donkey Hoodie on PBS. Very disappointed it was not about uncircumcised donkeys. 0/10 would not recommend.

Legendary for his massive SEC fines. He should have been barred from trading forever. He uses his criminally acquired funds to purchase sports teams and real estate. PBS has an hour long documentary about how big of a scumbag this dude and the people at his institution are. It's free on YouTube.

Science communicators have stepped up their game, check out the PBS SpaceTime series on YouTube. You don’t truly understand until you grok the math, but just take baby steps.

A higher weight energy density would make personal flying machines more viable. A PBS documentary placed hopes in lithium-metal. But not commercial yet. The other parts of the flying machines sound like they are in good shape.

This post belongs on r/wallstreetbets . Starting with, "I started investing in 2021..." OP has never invested in a high rate environment or recession yet he thinks high growth/unprofitable stocks are nearing a buy because people are investing in money market funds. Watch the "Age of Free Money" PBS documentary on YT. It'll explain how we got here and why high growth stocks are in for a rough ride going forward. TLDR: Don't catch a falling knife because you feel like it.

oh, PBS is an american only broadcast/service. PBS does not have "distribution rights" in Canada or other countries. There is a thing called "PBS Passport" that offers limited selection of shows in Canada.(Canada is the only country to allow PBS Passport currently) You need a VPN to bypass geo-filters by gaining an american IP address. Some PBS stations have limited broadcasting rights and may not be viewable online or in other parts of the united states. PBS is a distributor, and the local area stations are considered the broadcasters. The broadcaster is in control of the distribution rights, not PBS. Hence why only some shows are available through passport, and even fewer are available to Canada. No PBS shows/stations are available outside of Canada and USA.

Listen, I’ve been around awhile. Straddling my youth still but old enough to have grown up in 70’s. World is a tough place, particularly now in America. Last 7 years since DJT came on scene and pandemic had only shaken things up more. As a toddler in late 60’s, I remember how divided U.S. Nixon was very popular until he wasn’t and resigned. Gay people were ostracized. Women were nowhere to be found in business. Nation was overwhelmingly white and religious. Men over 18 had to register for selective service until 1980’s. There really were few blacks, other minorities, and women in congress. You couldn’t admit you had anxiety or depression. Only rich kids went to college. Divorce wasn’t as common. Abortion was illegal everywhere. You had to have a broker to trade stocks. There were only 3 tv channels plus PBS - they all went off the air after midnight. Things change. We have bad times and good times. Those in power try to hold on. Compare life 50+ years ago to today. We’ve had progress. ***Thoughts are changing. Cannabis will eventually be legalized in most places. Be patient.***

PBS News Hour last weekend was pretty good. There was a professor from Stanford on the show and he explained that the CCP “CIA” equivalent agency which is probably the 2nd best in the world already has the capability to obtain any POI data they want and does not need to go through ByteDance or any corporation. IMO, I’m more concern that they could weaponize it for brainwashing instead of users’ data.

My employer recently switched providers for their HSA option and are using Processive Benefits Solutions (PBS). Has anyone used their investment section before? If so, how do their options compare to other HSA providers?

I don't disagree with raising taxes for at least some income streams and earners and possible create specialty taxes in problematic markets. But the issue is not government revenue. For a taste of what I am talking about watcht the PBS documentary 'age of easy money'. Its more about the fact that the banks and by extension our entire economy is so reliant on cheap money that taking it away will actually be extremely damaging. There is reason to believe lots of GDP growth is simply manufactured with monetary policy. So if you tried to unwind that policy you would find assets worth much less which would collapse spending via reverse wealth effect. Also people would legitimately need to reduce spending to hit retirement goals etc. Plus increased cost of loans etc

Yeah, this PBS Frontline doc ([Age of Easy Money](https://youtu.be/EpMLAQbSYAw)) is pretty damn good.

>This is just what kids want. They don't want STEM educational content. I can't believe that needed to be posted. While I have a love of learning today, I'm 40. At age 10, I wanted cartoons and I sure as hell didn't want the type made by PBS to sneak in some education. I wanted mindless animated garbage. Either fart jokes or some idiotic proto-fascist good vs evil storyline where there's no gray areas.

It’s literally everything like a fucking Picasso painting. All the shitty things you can think of. Interest rate hikes, looming recessions if not actual recession in some places, safe bets turned sour, corruption, inflation, absolutely brain dead investments, lack of regulation if not deregulation, and a general feeling of “no confidence” in the market which is translating directly into banks after SVB. Basically, a mix of both people thinking the banks are gonna fail and the banks actually failing. Expect a PBS documentary in like a year explaining everything cause in reality people are still sort of making sense of it all.

I finally got around to watching the PBS Frontline doc The Age of Easy Money. My takeaway is that the Fed can't keep propping up asset classes without repercussions, and we're seeing that now with inflation. The Fed seems to be in a lose/lose situation, and is only delaying the inevitable downturn if they pause or slow rate hikes.

I watched that PBS doc easy money. It's like these peoples entire job is to convince people that money is real, jobs are real, and the stock market has real value. They said confidence so many times it should be a drinking game.
