We’ve read your shallow, lame, mediocre takes for decades, Doc. We see you generalize, shout down, bully and name call groups of people with each and every post. We see you exaggerate and make false claims all the time to try and make your point.

We see you be incredibly arrogant and ultimately wrong about everything you post.

So no thanks, Doc. I won’t be changing the accurate thread title to get an apology...from you.

All the personal stuff aside, it would indeed be a good thing to change the title Kram, as the 'name' used by the right wing media and politicians has indeed led those who really DO have such tendencies to incite and acts on all sorts of bigotry and even violence.

I don't think you have that intent, but IMO there's also really no benefit in being stubborn, just for drill.

On the back and forth, seems to me that there's often some truth to be found in opposing views. It needn't be 'all or nothing'.

Sorkin, like most Democrats, gets emotional and angry when confronted with their awful analysis, the actual facts, and their poor predictions. He's been wrong on everything, he's a journalist so there's no accountability and he will continue to get the gilded invite to Davos where he pretends to be a player while players mock him behind his back, and when called out on his fear hysteria, he gets all girly on you. Good for the other guy Kernen for telling it like it is.

Trust me, if more people called out journo's on their constant partisan Dem lies and economy-ruin fear peddling, they'd all have the same reaction as Sorkin: 'but 100,000 people died....' as if that's Kernen's burden. This is a stock price show, not a philosophy course in weighted personal responsibility.

Pretty sure your local Chinese food joint feels just fine with not being confused with the Thai or Vietnamese or Korean or Japanese etc spot down the street...of course, if you're looking for Cantonese, or Szechuan or...

Thanks for the longer version. Sorkin is correct, Kernan pooh poohed the virus's health impact, stupidly, wrongly, at each and every stage in lock step with Trump. Wrong when it was just a handful of infections, wrong when it was just a handful of deaths, wrong over and over and over again as the deaths mounted and they kept predicting it was going to go away any day.

Not to benefit investors, but full on in the tank supporting Trump.

The stock market on the other hand is a reflection not of this year's economy's strength, but rather the expectations for the ensuing 20 years and especially in relation to other places to put the enormous influx of cash pumped by the central banks.

These are two very different things.

Look, this may all play out marvelously well going forward for Americans, no major spikes or waves, all going to zero any day now. That would be awesome.

But there's going to be an enormous reckoning if that does not occur.

Kernen was “wrong” when he suggested it wasn’t bright to halt an economy when the recovery rate is 99.98%?! And he was “wrong” when he told Sorkin the stock market would recover quickly when it gapped below 20,000?

Wish I was that ‘wrong’.
