[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it inflation adjusted growth? 5% net growth sounds reasonable [/quote]

5% after inflation is absolutely insane. [/quote]

Why? Seems pretty in line with historical averages as it relates to S&P 500 - maybe even a bit low.

The people on here are just so incredibly pessimistic/unrealistic.    [/quote]

It's not unrealistic if you look at the historical stock market returns of other countries, current valuations, and how the US has been extremely lucky. [/quote]

Lucky is not quite right.  It just is what has happened here.  It is not likely to change.  We are not Japan and could not be if we tried.[/quote]

Uhhh...have you been living under a rock the past 9 months? We're certainly trying and have never had a better chance to succeed than right now. We're cutting and entirely eliminating government offices that provided billions and billions to US producers, (USAID spent ~70% of its entire budget buying foor from American farmers for instance) our tariffs are causing longtime trading partners to look for more stable countries to trade with. We're actively discouraging foreign investment in the US by directing ICE to conduct raids on legal workers building multibillion dollar factories in the US.

And if you think the Democrats will retake the government in 2028 to save us from all this you're dead wrong. Project 2026 means to ensure one-party rule permanently, and even if by some miracle the Dems do take our country back most of the damage will have already been done. We've shown to the world that we will not only elect an unstable moron to lead us who will appoint the most corrupt and unqualified people to the highest positions, but we will learn absolutely nothing and do it a second time. The world isn't going to risk anything on us because they now know enough of our population is so irredeemably stupid and evil they'll vote for it a third time, and a fourth time. [/quote]
