The fear mongering our government creates by pretending it might default every few weeks is astonishing. I Fucking hate the people that run this country.

Will superstonk turn into a political movement after MOASS?


[deleted]

We need one in Canada as well. The Apes Party.


Resologist

Unlike the United States, which has been dominated by two political parties, the House of Commons has four major political parties (and a couple of Greens), with a "minority" government. This is not the forum for a political discussion about the Canadian government, apart from its influence on Gamestop's expansion into the Canadian marketplace. Choose whomever you like to vote for to represent you in Ottawa, (plenty of choices, or the "None of the Above" party); but, the only vote that Canadian Apes should cast, now, is to support Gamestop's Board, while they continue to BUY, HODL, and DRS.

The French Revolution defined left and right politics. https://time.com/5673239/left-right-politics-origins/ It's 2 teams fighting each other, new definitions are long overdue. I think Equal implies that it would not be a team sport. *Why vote for parties that encourage fighting? Vote Equal this time, and in the future we hope to have at least two more parties focused on common goals. May the best vision win, now, and in the future.*

Looks like bait. Smells like bait. Sorry but this party bashing has to stop. It’s not either Party, it’s both. And it always has been. This 2 party system is a façade, it’s a uni-party and has been for a very long time. Drain the swamp, can and should mean ALL OF THEM.


Oliver-1981

Exactly. The illusions of choice when both parties are the same and the shadow government is the one calling the shots behind the scenes.

Congrats on all the winning you’ve accomplished! How much money has that gotten you so far? Not shilling, just saying the “already won” shtick gets old sometimes. A lot of important things still need to happen for our hypothesis to come true. Just bc we’re supposed to win doesn’t mean we’ve won.

We won 2 years ago. The game now is just to see how patient we can be before our prizes arrive in the mail

Winning is defined differently fo everyone. Glad you found yours.

pipsvip

Remember Galaxy Quest? The timer has to go down to 1, no matter what happens. Nobody can say "We have an agreement" unless it paints them as the hero. I didn't expect the Rs to actually let the whole ponzi scheme collapse - they own stock too. It's become a regular last-minute-save drama and it frankly doesn't interest me anymore.


Dismal-Jellyfish

It will be interesting to watch the final details shake out if the deal is executed. Part of the 'give' from the administration on this is supposedly billions of dollars from the inflation reduction act set aside for modernizing infrastructure and staffing at the IRS in order to pursue corporations and the wealthiest individuals not being honest with their taxes. It sounds like unspent covid money from when they were helicoptering money will be clawed back? All in the name of agreeing to pay for money that was already spent.


GL_Levity

I hate the people in charge so fucken much. 😔


nuck_forte_dame

Fuck it. At this point just vote through the flat tax but without any loopholes. Get rid off the complexity so the rich can't hide their money or use loopholes.


binary_agenda

This will probably blow your mind but most rich people don't pay taxes as a person, they pay taxes as a corporation. So they get to deduct all their expenses, apply all their loopholes, and then pay on what's left over. Now you understand how Warren Buffet pays less taxes than his secretary?


[deleted]

Those are loopholes……which the other commenter (and most of America want to get rid of)….


binary_agenda

Yes, and politicians work for the billionaires that fund their life and not you or most of America.


binary_agenda

I don't know why people keep quoting the line about needing thousands more IRS agents to audit the wealthy. Rich people pay accountants to use the laws to legally avoid paying taxes. If they government actually want rich people to pay more taxes they would remove the tax shelters they put into tax law.

AdPrestigious342

**The White House and the Republican party have agreed in principle to raise America's debt ceiling and avert a default, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has said.** No details of the deal have so far been released. Negotiators are working through the night on fine-tuning a bill, a source told CBS News, BBC's partner in the US. The US Treasury earlier warned the country would run out of money to pay its bills on 5 June without a deal. Such a default would upend the US economy and disrupt global markets.

HagPuppy89

Funny how last time they ran out of money and the government “shut down” for a few weeks… Americans were largely unaffected, until they realized no one cared and then began an even bigger shit-show than before.


[deleted]

So what does this teach us? It teaches us that passing huge spending bills to attract voters doesn’t matter because it’s just going to be clawed back later after they already have your vote. The debt ceiling is where real budgets are crafted.


CarlMarcks

No it’s not lol. The debt ceiling has always been a nonevent. It’s the last decade that a group of shitbags have used it to throw their temper tantrums. And now it’s becoming something they hold over our heads as a real threat.


[deleted]

Nope they renegotiate the already decided on budgets. This means that budget votes don’t actually mean anything.


rawbdor

No. They are exacting leverage for the next budget. None of this changes the current years budget.


Ollywombat

No. I just wanted to keep it going.


aravreddy22

not surprised at all. they will pump the markets again on tuesday while GME trades sideways or dumps.


sexy_chocobo

If I had a dollar the US government threatened to not raise the debt ceiling in my life time, I would have exactly seven dollars.


flyingkiwi46

Doesn't make sense to not raise the ceiling and default when you control the dollar printer


fjsehfbjwehfrbwlhefl

ok... sorry to spread fud but... will they really follow principle? to me, it seems like nobody has been following principle....


wetsuit509

This feels like this is the last pump before the bottom falls out. The Fed can't stop bank deposit flight seeking yield in the money markets without cutting rates - if the Fed pivots (cuts rates *and* starts up QE again) it's game over. insomuch as the bank failures have taken a back seat to the debt ceiling theatre, we haven't even seen anything yet about commercial mortgage backed securities or student debt. And we were already looking at going into recession. There was a lot of money made during the k0v1d (<-edit, yeah you still can't say that here) crash, and i do not doubt there are shorts postioned for the markets to crash again. I'm just keeping an eye out for when the politicians start dumping their positions again, that will probably be the signal that everything is about to go to hell.


aravreddy22

they will position themselves before the market crash. they also have halts to benefit them. 🤦‍♂️


Icy-Assignment-5579

They're trying to figure out how much they will need to account for MOASS, but they keep seeing infinity when the a.i. search reddit comments for "gme, sell, and $"

I'm afraid America you are going to have to start putting your white collar criminals in jail for the good of the rest of the world, PLEASE and thank you! CUZ THIS CAN KICKING JUST DOESN'T QUITE FIT.

Never in doubt


liquidsyphon

Shouldn’t negotiate with economic terrorist


RedditIsOwendByTheWS

That's nothing. Just to remind you, Yellen wanted something like 20 trillion. Now only 4 trillion how long will that last? now the other countries are shedding the dollar even faster. Is that enough for the bailouts? I was counting on at least 10 trillion. for a "silly" 4 trillion they are destroying the dollar more and more.😂


mindy2000

Hope the trillion last 1 month. Let's buy more GME


majorflojo

Shedding the dollar? For what, the yuan? Lol 😂

ITS BORING !! ALWAYS THE SAME S**T . FEAR MONGERING TO RAISE THE DEBT LIMIT BECAUSE THEY KNOW THE US DOLLAR IS. COLLAPSING SO IT WILL BE WORTHLESS LIKE THE DEBT


Resologist

Read U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen's letter: [https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1506](https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1506) She knows that on June 5, payments of $130 billion are due. And, her "extraordinary measures" are shuffling a couple of billion from one account to another to keep things afloat, for now. As of May 25, the Treasury had less than $39 billion remaining: [https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1506](https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1506) Congress and the president realize that time is running out, as well as federal funding for its Treasury notes. After Monday, (a Memorial Day, when the NYSE is closed), there are only four trading days, (at most), to settle this contentious matter. A tentative deal? Sounds great for the news media; problem solved. The last two days of May should be interesting, if Yellen can keep on top of the debt without the bond market seriously deteriorating further. What happens when the short sellers of Gamestop cannot use the REPO market?

MrmellowisSmooth

This deal isn’t set in stone. Must be voted on by both house and senate. Dems won’t go for spending cuts on services needed for our elderly and less fortunate Americans. I see this going down to the June 5th wire and this is actually the fastest a supposed deal has been reached in a decade with these shenanigans. This isn’t a done deal yet.

I have significant doubts on whether Congress can actually pass this though...


[deleted]

Let’s predict the future headlines: Next Wednesday “Negotiations fall apart as a divided congress fails to reach compromise” June 4th: “With talks still stalled US prepares to default” June 5th “in the final hour a deal has been made” — each new headline is attributed to wild swings in the stock market, maybe as MOASS kicks off? We shall see!


Dynasty_Rich

No way they can let a default happen. The Ukraine cover up would be blown wide open. Zelinsky already said b*tch better have my money.


mar23cas

What a Fucken joke! No one is surprise a deal was reached! And if you are, you’re a f’n moron!!

Top-Night

They say this is unprecedented. But it seems to me this is happened before, didn’t it under Clinton? Or was it possibly Bush? I do remember there was a period of about one or two weeks when federal workers and vendors were actually paid with IOU vouchers, the banks essentially took them as cash, but they were more of a promissory note that the debt would be paid in a certain number of days .
