So you also dont understand interest rates. When I say they make 10-20%, i mean total. For every hundred dollars you have in there, they are averaging $10-$20 profit off that. You can look this up. They do this through lots more than mortgages and loans, but mortgages and loans are actually much more profitable than even 10-20% overall, a loan rate of “6%” means 6% PER YEAR and most go for 30 years. If you bought a 500k house at 5% for 30y, you will be paying over $750K, they are making OVER 50%.

Their revenue in 2025 is basically all car or battery related. They are investing a lot in GPUs and R&D. So you know what this means: NEXT YEAR lol

Two problems here. If you take your money out a YEAR before a crash, then you have no guarantee that actually you wouldn't have made more money by remaining invested for that year and letting the crash hit you than you would be sitting on cash over the same period. E.g. I have $100, I can remove it and keep $100 for a year, or I can leave it in and say it goes up to $150, then crashes by a huge percentage all the way down to $110. I still made 10 more dollars by remaining invested. Since you don't know how bad the crash will be, you don't know which is the better play. Secondly, it is much easier (though still very uncertain) to guess that a crash might come in 1-2 days. Knowing a crash will come in a year is practically impossible. So your advice is both wrong and useless

Good luck, this is literally how my parents turned about 200k in 1998 to about $1 million now. Never sold their losses, but when things looked rocky, kept new contributions in their retirement HYSA equivalent, waiting for the perfect time. I guess they did ok, but if they had just kept that 200k invested in 75% VTI / 25% VXUS they would have $1,850,000- so 185% more. Hartford funds has a study showing if you miss the 10 best days in a 30 YEAR period, you cut your return rate in half and if you manage to miss the 30 best days, you cut your returns by 85%. I'm sure you won't though, you're different and smarter than most investors.

Nearly every study IN THE PAST YEAR has shown that sentiment towards AI is shifting negatively in big ways. The core markets, Gen Z and Millenials, are especially moving away from AI usage. Gallups study which is probably the most accurate at the current moment, showed huge dropoffs in sentiment, with equally large growths in frustration with AI models. The honeymoon is over for AI, and the data is clearly showing that people dont want or need it. The companies making the loudest claims about profitability are private and do not need to disclose their full expenditures. They are consistently using metrics and language that would indicate emphasis on rapid growth and investor confidence, and, apparently, to trick people like you into thinking they are raking in profits with 0 data.

WHAT YEAR IS IT!?

crimeo

So... you think jobs reports are what actually matters? And yet you're unconcerned by the entire YEAR of 2025 being roughly equal to an average MONTH from 2024 in jobs added? January looked like a bit of a recovery, but then Feb just lost all the same jobs again. March hasn't ben revised yet so is meaningless until the standard -20k? -40k? -70k? who knows? change gets indicated.

Umm.. sir… you said the system was on the brink of collapse a YEAR ago… and I heard it the year before… and the year before… and the year before… and the year before… and trumps first term… and obama’s two terms… and bush’s two terms… At some point, do you Doomers go “ok… I’m off base here…”

Ok you're actually retarded as fuck. You can only CLAIM 3K IN CAPITAL LOSSES PER YEAR. If I lost 10k this year I can only claim 3k on my taxes, the 7k carries over. If I lose 10k the next year, again I can only claim 3k in losses on my taxes and my "bank" is now" 14k. My point is my bank is > than my gains, meaning my banked capital losses offset my capital gains so I do not pay taxes. I'm not talking about the 3k cap of capital losses I'm claiming, I'm talking about capital losses offsetting capital gains for a net gain of zero. Last comment to you, ask chatgpt you fuckin idiot

The President is currently hitting that he has no intention of reopening the Straight of Hormuz. If he doesn’t make an attempt and leaves the straight in the hands of the IRGC then we might as well just leave the nuclear material there because obtaining it will be a hollow victory. As I said before, my worry is that the US (and the world for that matter) will end up in a worse position regardless if we “win” or “lose”. Under normal circumstances the over one hundred ships pass through the straight VERY DAY. Some ships have gotten through over the past 31 days by paying a toll to the Iranian government, reported to be $2,000,000.00. Let’s do some maths: $2,000,000.00 x 120 =$240,000,000.00 x 365 =$8.76×10¹⁰. That’s: 87.6 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. They rebuild and buy new weapons systems to replace what they’ve lost in a few years with that kind of money. Furthermore, it will give them unparalleled leverage on dozens of major countries around the world. The Japanese, South Koreans, Taiwanese Philippines, Vietnamese and others are absolutely dependent on energy from the Straight. They will have no choice but to cut deals with a “terrorist regime” (and that moniker is more accurate now than it has ever been thanks to Trump and Netanyahu) that is backed/ controlled by their principal regional threat - CHINA! The Gulf states who rely on the Straight for their economic viability will be at Irans mercy. They may have to expel US troops from our bases in their countries in order to get their product out! You’re so worried about little things that you’re missing the bigger picture. This could be a massive geopolitical disaster for the US, our allies around the world (what’s left of them) and everyone else. Trump, if he leaves without reopening the Straight, will make Iran a global power and the regional oil hegemony. The consequences of this “little excursion” may cripple American global power and influence for generations, maybe permanently. So in conclusion, your narrow minded assessment based on tactical objectives completely missing the large geopolitical implications. You’re willing to sacrifice strategic goals for tactical successes. Do you work in the White House? That would certainly make sense. I just think you’re coping with the fact that this was a half-cocked, poorly planned operation that will likely cost the US FAR MORE THAN ITS WORTH. You don’t know what you’re talking about and you’re coping with the fact that your Dear Orange Leader may end up fucking ALL OF US! He’s an incompetent idiot, when the fuck will you shills finally figure that out. Hopefully he doesn’t do this… Hopefully we do all that is necessary - many weeks to months of ground combat, thousands of American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars - to achieve a true victory. Aka: Reopening and securing the Straight and actually changing the regime. If the US fails to do this it will be the greatest geopolitical disaster since… Shit, I don’t even know. Whatever, we’ll see what happens but but based on what I’ve seen it looks like Trump is about to chicken out and the entire world will have to deal with the consequences - INCLUDING YOU (assuming you’re not a bot lol).

IMasterCheeksI

Yeah but Trump Jr’s war machine investments are cranking! Over $1billion in taxpayer funds have gone directly to his down line investments in the last YEAR alone. In fact, the largest pentagon loan given out in the history of our country, went directly to one of his businesses where he’s invested, and sits on the board. Daddy Trump also made the Sr Director of another one of Jr’s investments, the fucking Undersecretary of the Army. In charge of purchasing and ops. Ain’t it awesome living in New Russia.

If you didnt buy on liberation day, youre either lying or have not really thought out the statistics. it would need to drop 30% from ath, to even get to the level it was 2 years ago. If you want a BETTER price, to make the risk worth, we would need a 2007/08 situation or worse, THIS YEAR, even if it takes just 2-3 years more, than even such a dip would just be breakeven, with the risk of it never happening

I do believe some of these are war crimes >THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS IN SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS WITH A NEW, AND MORE REASONABLE, REGIME TO END OUR MILITARY OPERATIONS IN IRAN. GREAT PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE BUT, IF FOR ANY REASON A DEAL IS NOT SHORTLY REACHED, WHICH IT PROBABLY WILL BE, AND IF THE HORMUZ STRAIT IS NOT IMMEDIATELY “OPEN FOR BUSINESS,” WE WILL CONCLUDE OUR LOVELY “STAY” IN IRAN BY BLOWING UP AND COMPLETELY OBLITERATING ALL OF THEIR ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANTS, OIL WELLS AND KHARG ISLAND (AND POSSIBLY ALL DESALINIZATION PLANTS!), WHICH WE HAVE PURPOSEFULLY NOT YET “TOUCHED.” THIS WILL BE IN RETRIBUTION FOR OUR MANY SOLDIERS, AND OTHERS, THAT IRAN HAS BUTCHERED AND KILLED OVER THE OLD REGIME’S 47 YEAR “REIGN OF TERROR.” THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

A standard correction? Nothing to see here, just a run of the mill correction? Well gee, if that's the case then we should be saying that the S&P500 is a highly volatile asset. Sarcasm aside I'm not really sure on what basis you're making the assumption that it's now well priced? P/E ratio of 25 means fuck all on it's own unless you assess the risk of those earnings rising 25x in the near future. Microsoft has been trending downhill for a while now, with not a lot to instill hope given their cash burning appears to be a hail mary to stay relevant in the AI game. Open AI just shutdown SORA after just over ONE YEAR despite putting $15 MILLION PER DAY into it, a clear indicating that it is riding on a knife's edge. It's not that the MAG7 doesn't have potential, it's that it's potential is arguably outweighed by large amounts of downside risk.

I just want to add that I'm extremely against the rulings. I strongly disagree that irresponsibility should be rewarded. ***"Wednesday’s ruling found in favour of a 20-year-old woman who claimed social media apps caused her to develop body dysmorphia, depression, and suicidal thoughts." (1)*** You have to physically click on a link or download (and open) the app to access named social media or content. In this case, sue the internet. Sue computers and smartphones. ***"In February, KGM told the trial she had started using YouTube at the age of 6 and Instagram at age of 9. By the time she finished elementary school, she had posted 284 videos on YouTube." (2)*** WHY IS A 6 OR 9 YEAR OLD POSTING VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE?! PARENTS, HELLO?! (Disclosure: I'm a parent) ***"KGM said several features, which lawyers argued are deliberately designed to be addictive, such as notifications, would give her a “rush”. She said she would sometimes go to the toilet during school just to check her notifications.*** ***The plaintiff also said she used Instagram filters, which alter cosmetic appearance, on almost all her photos. She said she had not experienced the negative feelings associated with her body dysmorphia diagnosis before she began using social media and filters.*** ***Victoria Burke, a former therapist the plaintiff worked with in 2019 for six months, also testified in February. Burke said that KGM’s social media and sense of self were intertwined, and what was happening online would influence the plaintiff’s mental health." (2)*** The fact that plaintiff even had a therapist who noted these issues with addiction and continued to let them degrade into whatever this lawsuit is justifying - isn't that some kind of negligence or malpractice rather than Meta or Google's fault? What jury ruled in favor of this? =Separate Lawsuit= ***"Singer said testimony and evidence at trial showed Meta’s algorithms had been recommending sensational and harmful content to teenagers, while alleging that the company failed to truly enforce its minimum user age of 13.*** ***Singer urged jurors to impose a civil penalty that could exceed $2 billion against Meta, based on the maximum $5,000 penalty per violation on two counts of consumer protection violations, and an estimated 208,700 monthly users of Meta platforms under the age of 18 in New Mexico. The violations include “unconscionable” trade practices." (3)*** First off, Facebook, Instagram, w/e are NOT for kids. There IS a separate "Messenger Kids" app that kids can use. It's linked to a parent's Facebook account. This case could hold if there were issues on "Messenger Kids", which is literally marketed as "The Messaging App for Kids". I'll bring up the Roblox issue which I'm on the other side of, because Roblox is *heavily* marketed towards kids and they protected sexual predators (see Schlep). ***"“For many of our products, we historically haven’t designed for under 13.”***" ***(4)*** ***"Strategistson experiences for the spectrum of age groups: Kids (6-9), Tweens(10-12),Early Teens (13-15), Late Teens (16+) that includes net new products (e.g. IG for Tweens,Family Center)as well as redefining existing products to take into account cognitive andsocial development needs that different stages of maturity have." (4b)*** Messenger Kids is clear evidence that they were developing experiences separate from Facebook, Instagram, etc. for kids. In addition to this, they were seeking to hire people who could help **redefine existing products** for kids. To me, this separate New Mexico lawsuit, again, just rewards parental negligence. I'd even go so far as to say that they're just using 'kids', 'minors', 'children' to spark moral outrage.

Trump CANNOT make a deal even if he wanted, not one Iranians would remotely accept While reading about how Trump wants to make a deal and is supposedly in negotiations with some anonymous but really important person in Iran, lets remember two points: 1- Any deal acceptable to Iranians will require some lifting of sanctions at bare minimum 2- By law, US Presidents CANNOT unilaterally lift sanctions imposed by Congress. Remember folks, according to the US Constitution while US Presidents are in charge of diplomatic relations with other nations, ONLY Congress is in charge of economic relations with other nations: Article I, Section 8 of the US Constitution explicitly grants Congress the power to "regulate commerce with foreign nations"  So ONLY Congress can lift sanctions on Iran (even ask gpt).

Congress authorizes Presidents to ENFORCE theses sanctions laws, not to lift them. These sanctions laws give the US President some leeway for example to suspend sanctions for 6 months at a time, but suspending sanctions is not the same as lifting them - and having to do so every 6 months is probably not acceptable to Iran which would want a permanent lifting of sanctions instead to allow long term investments etc. Legally, US sanctions on Iran cannot be lifted even if Iran totally gives up her nuclear program. https://nationalinterest.org/feature/are-sanctions-fatwa-iran-6363 The legal preconditions to lifting sanctions are deliberately ridiculous because they're meant to be unliftable essentially The continuation of Congressional sanctions under Obama was also why the JCPOA nuclear deal failed from the very start, before Trump was even elected and before he tore up the deal. (Obama and Kerry even tried to rally foreign banks to do business with Iran anyway but gave up since the banks were more concerned about OFAC rules.) So no, the JCPOA nuclear deal was actually NOT "working" before Trump killed it contrary to widespread claims & despite Iran's verified compliance with it for more than a year even after Trump tore up. Trump's "withdrawal" did not kill the nuclear deal as it was never implemented by the US even under Obama thanks to continued Congressional sanctions, nor could it ever be implemented thanks to those sanctions: "if the situation is not appreciably better soon, it will be impossible for the US and its partners to argue credibly that they are not in breach of the JCPOA."

The best part about him losing is he personally blames trump instead of thinking about what he did wrong. Like buddy the taco trade has been happening for the past YEAR. Manage your risk! And then take responsibility for your own actions even if they are stupid! Anyone who blames the world for losingwill always be a LOSER

Sounds good on paper, but unfortunately this breaks too when you realise the dip is not a dip but gets sold off, have this happening 3-4 times in a row and you’re likely out of cash and out of your mind as well. Then you watch your live savings depreciate fast, and then what? Dec/2021 to Nov/2022 Nasdaq plummeted by 35%. You know what this means for high-beta stocks, easily -70% over the course of 1 YEAR. Amazon, a blue chip, lost 55%. Not to mention WSB ‘favourites’. Compare this to the current Nasdaq “dip” to date of just 7% and people start to freak.

A lot has changed in 21 days. I stayed in and got my ass handed to me. I don't have as much as you sadly but I've lost like 20% of my brokerage account's values with this clown show right now. Even before the war in Iran Trump stepped all over the economy. Sure the market did well but not compared with Europe and Asian markets which left us in the dust. All those people who thought Trump would be "great for business" and refuse to acknowledge the rebuilding of our economy under Biden (15 million jobs/50,000 new businesses started) can kiss my ass! I knew he would be bad for the economy but even I didn't think he'd feed it into the wood chipper. 180K jobs added in the ENTIRE YEAR of 2025! That was a bad month when Biden was president! Unemployment and inflation climbing. Gas prices through the roof. Diesel and jet fuel in the stratosphere. Treasury Bonds through the roof. A complete and utter disaster. 2008 will look like a paradise when this year is over...

Outrageous_Length975

I've been investing for 20 years. I've seen enough to know the patterns. Day to day, who the fuck knows. But year to year, it's very obvious. We had 3 straight years of 20% market gains. IT WAS ALWAYS GOING TO GO DOWN THIS YEAR, MORONS. Didn't matter if there was war in Iran or peace on Mars. Big boys were taking profits regardless.

Well… caution might be the smart thing, especially for small measured gains. But is it the right thing? What if the US military contract comes through. What if Nasdaq is a $20 bump. What if a bunch of the 70-75 other companies come through… and it happens THIS YEAR. While you quibble over single digit moves between $5 and $8 bucks in a pre-rev phase… you just might get left in the dust as a new nano material influences every sector you can think of, plus some you haven’t yet. I understand the caution…. If there ever was a moment to take a big swing… for me, this is that one. IMHO Good luck to all !!!😎

they used about 2000 drones so far they have 80,000 of them even if say the US blew up half of them so far thats 38000 drones. Before the way they could build 400 a day. Now the patriot on the hand cost 3m a pop and they shoot 2 per inbound vs the 20k drones. Also its well known the US can manufacture 600 patriots.......A YEAR. Across the region they too have used close to 2000 patriots so 3.5 years of production.

MuricanWisecrack

You are regarded, highly. how old are you? can you even point out Iran on a map? Look. as a europoor im listening to Bibi Netanjahu - exactly in the Style of Elon musk - since AT LEAST 2007 - EVERY FUCKIN YEAR tell "next year Iran has a nuclear bomb - and they gonna use it". Its the mother of all warmongering. There was a perfectly fine Deal with EU and Obama. Guess who fuckin obliterated that deal? Right! The Mango. \------ But you get anyways what you voted for. no need to be poisonous. everything has a price and i cannot possible think how anything Mango does benefits anybody. So: Enjoy, regard.

Slippery-road

Actual advice.... clearly this is not the WORST thing that could happen. You can open the position minus the 4k in taxes, leave that cash or better a dollar yield instrument. Try and get that 4-5ish percent on USD until taxes come a whole YEAR from now. TLDR: your fine my guy. Dollar interest instruments and chill. (Strc being my favorite for this scenario)

# The 20+ Cancer "Platform" Multiplier Everyone keeps talking about AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia). But SELLAS’s lead asset, **GPS**, is a **WT1-targeting vaccine**.    GPS isn't a drug; it's a **platform** * **The "Bible" of Targets:** The National Cancer Institute (NCI) ranked **WT1** as the **#1 priority** among cancer antigens for immunotherapy. * **The 20-Cancer Reach:** Because WT1 is overexpressed in over **20 different types of cancer** (including Lung, Ovarian, Mesothelioma, and Glioblastoma), a win in AML is a "Proof of Concept" for the entire platform. You're buying a **multi-cancer maintenance platform** **The Lung Cancer Catalyst:**  SELLAS is already planning **Phase 2 combinations** for lung cancer because GPS creates "memory" in the immune system to stop the cancer from returning. In big pharma math, a platform that works across 20 indications isn't worth $20B; it’s worth a **generational legacy**.  # The $100+ Marker: Bidding War Math In a standard buyout, you get a 100% premium ($8.00). But in a **Bidding War**, the price is driven by the **Strategic Multiple.** * **The $10B Ceiling ($60/share):** This is where Pfizer usually ends a "friendly" bidding war, like their **Metsera** deal in December 2025. * **The $17B Milestone ($100/share):** To reach $100, the market cap must hit **$17 Billion**. * **Is this crazy?** Not in oncology. Pfizer paid **$43 Billion** for Seagen and **$14 Billion** for Medivation after a bidding war. * **The "Platform" Multiplier:** If GPS becomes the new standard for **20+ cancers** (not just AML), a **$17B–$25B** bid becomes a value play for all  to save their triple digit market caps. #  Why $25 Billion is "Cheap" for Merck or Pfizer or Abbvie Let’s look at the "Buyout Boys" and why they might happily pay **double** that $25B marker. * **The Keytruda Comparison:** Merck’s **Keytruda** generates **$30B to $35B PER YEAR**. However, it hits a patent cliff in 2028. * **The "Sequel" Strategy:** If Merck buys SELLAS, they don't just get a new drug; they get a way to **protect their $30B/year franchise**. By combining Keytruda with GPS, they can create a new, patented "Super-Drug" that extends their monopoly for another 10–15 years. * **The Valuation Math:** If an acquisition saves a **$300B revenue stream** over a decade, paying $40B or $50B for the key (SELLAS) is a bargain. This is why **Pfizer paid $43B for Seagen**—they weren't buying today's sales; they were buying the future of oncology. # The "Bidding War" $100 Reality  * **Merck** has $30B in cash it needs GPS to save Keytruda. * **AbbVie** needs GPS to dominate blood cancer. * **Pfizer** has the $31B cash war chest and the bridge already built. A **$17B Market Cap** equals the **$100 stock price**. To Merck (saving a $30B/year franchise) or AbbVie (fixing a $400B market cap), paying $20B–$40B for the key to 20+ cancers is a bargain. You don't see institutional whales like **State Street** and **Millennium** adding 60%–300% to their positions in a single week for a "date." They are positioning themselves for the **Buyout Wedding.   Get your calls in order this is a millionaire maker right here!!!! GLTA**

You can only carry over $3k of losses each year. Luckily(and unluckily) for you, you’re still in the red those from losing $110k already. Once you break even THIS YEAR, you might want to start thinking harder about the tax man. Who am I kidding, you’re never breaking even.

**Trumps 1st Term Failures!** The economy lost 2.9 million jobs. The unemployment rate increased by 1.6 percentage points to 6.3%. The international trade deficit Trump promised to reduce went up. The U.S. trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was the highest since 2008 and increased 40.5% from 2016. The number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million. The federal debt held by the public went up, from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion. Coal production declined 26.5%, and coal-mining jobs dropped by 16.7% Handgun production rose 12.5%(American felt less safe under Trump) The murder rate rose to the highest level since 1997. When Trump left office, there were 154,000 fewer people employed in manufacturing than when he became president.(Making Trump the worst "JOBS" Potus since Herbert Hoover) Trump was responsible for the largest GDP drop since 1947, when the nation’s economy declined 11.6% after years of economic expansion fueled by World War II. 3.3 million Americans went into poverty. Over Over100 US oil companies went into bankruptcy in ONE YEAR The rate of aggravated assaults also rose under Trump — by 12.6%. Illegal immigration increased. Illegal border crossings, as measured by apprehensions at the Southwest border, were 14.7% higher in Trump’s final year in office compared with the last full year before he was sworn in. By every available metric, the first Trump Presidency was an abject failure. Biden left Our Country’s recovery from tre45on and Covid as the envy of the world.

BREAKING: US national debt is set to surge +$2.4 trillion PER YEAR over the next 10 years, according to new CBO estimates. As a result, US debt will likely reach a record $64 TRILLION in 2036, doubling from 2023 levels. That would be TRIPLE the debt recorded in 2018, before the pandemic. It’s over All while the annual interest costs on federal debt are expected to more than double, to $2.1 trillion, over the next 10 years. This also assumes the economy will not fall into a recession over the entire period. $64 trillion in debt is now the base case

This one of the dumbest things I have read. Even if I didn't/don't agree with the new laws specifics, they ABSOLUTELY make it harder to be obscenely rich in order to make it MUCH harder for people to become obscenely poor and destitute like you see all over the US. This is why you don't see the hoards of homeless people folded over on every street corner, bus stop, playground, parking lot, etc. This is why you don't see OVER 1 MILLION citizen having to declare bankruptcy EVERY YEAR just due to Medical Debt. This is why you see that the Netherlands is almost CONSTANTLY in the top 5 happiest countries on earth, while the US is mid 20's. Also, the thought that "they do this so everyone is forced to work a 9-5" is literally the dumbest thing I have ever heard. This is elementary levels of cognitive dissonance. People like this cry that Europeans are lazy, never go to work, have months of vacation, get an entire year off from work for having a child, have strong labor unions to prevent the greedy owners from taking advantage of the workers or moving their workforce to a 3rd world country, etc. HOW CAN THEY BE LAZY AND CONSTANTLY BE ON VACATIONS WHILE AT THE SAME TIME YOU TRY AND PAINT IT AS THIS HELLISH WORK FARM WHERE THE WORKERS ARE WORKED TO THE BONE FOR NOTHING. **HAVE YOU NOT SEEN WHAT IS GOING ON IN AMERICA?** Saying this while comparing to America is truly laughable. Its like all the arguments you make against Europe/The Netherlands are actually solid arguments that the rest of the world makes about America. I am not even talking specific numbers or policies right now. Like I can not even fathom making such a dumb argument (even if I might not agree with specifics on the law) especially when talking about a country that literally smokes the US when it comes to overall happiness year after year after year, higher life expectancy, better public education k-12, MUCH better public infrastructure, better income inequality, safer and cleaner water and food, human rights, higher literacy rate, lower infant mortality rate, lower consumer debt, obesity rates in adults and children, crime, violent crimes, gun deaths, and on and on. Also, If Netherlands is this hell hole that is trying to keep people working a 9-5 their entire life, why is it that the Netherlands has an elderly poverty rate under 3%, while the US has an elderly poverty rate 10-14% Why is the average work week only 32 hours a week, with part time work also being the norm? If it is a hell hole why do they get 2 years of sick leave,1 month of mandatory vacation (minimum,) If it is this workers hell hole, why does the Netherlands have the highest pension payout at 91% of the workers median earnings, while the US is at 41% (and thats assuming you will even get a pension. Obviously those are almost extinct at this point.) Also, as someone who has owned and started many business, let me tell you, if I didn't have to worry about medical insurance, insurance for my workers, trying to compete with giant tech monsters or monopolies, worrying about being homeless/not being able to eat (early days) etc It would have been much easier. In America we are getting to the point where only the rich or well off can take risks. Most of the leaders in the business world failed many times before becoming successful. Most of the time the people that can afford to take multiple risks are those that have a good security net. This is why starting a small business is much easier for the normal citizen in the Netherlands than the US when it comes to just having the means to do so. Not saying it is this utopia at all, but cut the bullshit. America is not what it was and sure you have less than a 0.1% chance to become a billionaire, but you are much much MUCH more likely to get cancer in your 40s/50s and slowly die either alone or with your family who will have to navigate the finacial devastation without you.
