Whether you like it or not, we're in an #economic #reset & nothing can stop it

The #macro chart of the #USA #economy reveals a crucial insight everyone should pay attention to

US #GDP & M2 money supply in #USD tn

Read on...

#tradingview chart👉bit.ly/3IwTBrt

1/🧵 Image
Untill 2011, money supply M2 consistently remained below 60% of #GDP

#Growth in M2 kept pace with GDP growth

Enabling low #inflation secular growth #economy

Despite popular #fintwit narrative, even GFC of 2008 did not upset M2 GDP⚖️balance

This is what GFC did...

2/🧵 Image
Average #GDP growth was 4% but M2 grew at 6%

Since 1960, this is the 1st time M2 increased faster than GDP

Still in 2011, M2 was less than historical average 60% of GDP

The story gets interesting for #investor #Traders #students #everyone

Then came the opportunity...

🧵 Is the American Dream dead? - a tweetstorm

This is a brain dump of .@RaoulGMI's 30+ years of knowledge, how the world works, and how his macro framework fits into it all ⤵️
1/ There's no denying that we're in a mess!

By the Law of Unintended Consequences, every time we try to fix A, we create problems B, C, D, E, etc.

We hardly understand these new problems unless there's hindsight to connect the dots...
2/ [PART I: #HISTORY]

So, how the hell did we get here?

Let's start by looking at the peak of the #British Empire:

It was the world's largest realm. But as with every empire, trying to control so many people across the globe has its price & #debt weakened its structure...

Sanitary pads take 250-800 years to decompose, which is pushing young Indians to opt for greener alternatives

#Sustainability

businessinsider.in/sustainability…

By @karunasharmaa
Every year, around 12.3 billion used sanitary pads are dumped in landfills in India, said a report by the environmental group Toxics Link. Each of these non-organic sanitary pads is equivalent to four plastic bags, and it takes 250-800 years to decompose.

#sustainability
To reduce their carbon footprint on Earth, young #millennials and #GenZ are switching to greener options like menstrual cups, reusable pads, period discs, tampons, period panties, etc. Not only are these alternatives greener but some of them are also cheaper.

India has more KFCs and Pizza Huts than Canada or Mexico, and they’re customized too

@KFC_India @PizzaHutIN

businessinsider.in/business/news/…

By @KatyaNaidu
One would think that American fast food brands like #KFC and #PizzaHut would be more popular on home turf than outside – like in Canada and Mexico. But they are spreading their wings in countries like China and #India.
While #China has a higher number of these stores outside the US, India has more #PizzaHut outlets than Australia. It also ranks very close to Australia in terms of the number of KFCs– proving that Colonel’s chicken and pizzas have found favour with the Indian palate.

📢Die #Mittelschicht gilt als Rückgrat unserer Wirtschaft & Gesellschaft. Bröckelt sie⁉️In einer gemeinsamen Studie mit der @OECD haben wir eine umfassende Vermessung der #Struktur, #Arbeitsmarkt|entwicklungen und Mobilitätsdynamiken vorgenommen📐. Die wichtigsten Ergebnisse im🧵
(2/10) Die #Mittelschicht in Deutschland ist bis 2005 geschrumpft und hat sich seither nicht erholt: 1995 zählten noch 70 % der Bevölkerung zur mittleren Einkommensgruppe, 2018 waren es nur noch 64 %. Vom Rückgang📉 war vor allem die untere Mittelschicht betroffen.
(3/10) Die #Chancen, innerhalb von 4 Jahren in die Mittelschicht aufzusteigen 🧗‍♀️, sind deutlich gesunken. Gleichzeitig stieg auch das #Abstiegsrisiko⛷️ für die untere Mitte und war zuletzt 3x höher als im mittleren und sogar 6x höher als im oberen Teil der Mittelschicht.

Also let's not have that conversation about how even in liberalism white people do speak over black/Latinx folks sometimes which causes problems y'all but apparently it's acceptable as long as they "Democrat" and agree with the hive mind cause they "good white people" lmao.
Welp. #generationy and #millennials, y'all not so tolerant now? You only not #transphobic, #misogynist, #racist, avoid #ethnic #discrimination, avoid critiquing valid #religions, non #ableist against disabled folx etc. as long as ppl agree 100% with the #liberal #hivemind 🤷
Forgot homophobia as I'm not straight lol so yes I am calling Millennial/Generation Y, at least some of you lot a bunch of dumbass crybabies who do not understand the idea of critically critiquing, and NO, that is not a #white thing or else I guess my CUNY Hunter college /3

DO NOT BE #RACIST OR #ETHNIC DISCRIMINATE AGAINST PEOPLE THAT YOU HATE
DO NOT BE #MISOGYNIST BECAUSE A NON MAN OR NON WHITE PERSON SPEAKS THEY /1
OPINION.
Literally stop your "oh I'm so tolerant" #liberal shit because yes, Generation Y, sometimes you deserve to be shit on especially in the #USA/Americaland sector.
Like literally this is why #millennials including myself sometimes just feel... Like some people are two /2
faced. #generationy more critique, in my case, in the white sector but some of you #liberal people of color, even black and Latinx/Indigenous folx make yourself so unapproachable even as a liberal myself and I just don't like that. /3

Ok, can my fellow #Millennials collectively admit that the American School system FAILED US ALL by not teaching us about the #TulsaRaceMassacre when we were coming up?

It's really messed up.
I had to learn about Tulsa on my own, in my late 20s--despite attending a well-funded Public School system 👀

...Then there's the additional 11 years of Post-Graduate Education during which I never heard a peep about Tulsa 👀
That's really bad.

Why? Because we LEGITIMATELY cannot have a coherent conversation about the current state of race relations in America if you do not understand what happened at Tulsa.

...It's a critical piece of the picture.

1/1: Excellent essay! I would add, first, that a part of this argument could be extended to others than West German #millennials, i.e. to all those for whom #1989 and the #ColdWar were not such big deals.

2/2: Second, regarding Eastern Europe, during the last ten years, #NordStream 1 has been a bigger cognitive and geopolitical problem than #NordStream2 whose geopolitical dimension is now, at least, partly understood - even by some #Germanmillennials.

Climate change is viewed as an issue that needs attention today and majorities view government, industry -- and even 'ordinary Americans' -- as doing 'too little' to help reduce its effects.
2/x
Americans continue to prioritize alternative energy development (like wind and solar) over fossil fuels, but public is roughly divided over phasing out gas-powered cars by 2035; opposes eliminating fossil fuels from energy picture altogether

C'mere #GenZ I be needing you to teach me some #21stCentury colloquial slang language so I can impress my grandsons. The other day my 16 year old complained that his parents were too strict and I said, "It do be like that sometimes, Homie." He said, "You speak my language? Cool!" Image
#DoBeDoBeDo two hundred thousand words in the English language, and more every day, we'll never live long enough to learn them all!
I might use some of this new lingo in tweets too, but only if I'm talking to #GenZ because others may not understand the references. I do want to talk to #GenZ because they are the ones who saved us from a second term for #TheHateYam & they must do it again. We must #PassTheTorch

Police claim “unlawful assembly” after killing 20 year old young black man, with his mom on the phone and his girlfriend beside him as they drove to visit his older brother and see his new home. Here is the PDF from the @aclu_mn re: protests. #BlackLivesMatter
Minneapolis police knew, or should have known, the killing of a young black man stopped in his vehicle, will result in protests. The police should have been prepared for protests and de-escalated it. Journalists have been reporting that police officers are quitting the “force”
because of fear of danger after the George Floyd trial outcome. Therefore, they knew of the repercussions of killing, wrongfully, a young black man. #EnoughIsEnough #StopSystemicRacism

Así fue: Cancelan al zorrillo Pepe Le Pew por fomentar la violación sexual, uno de los personajes más famosos de la serie animada Looney Tunes, luego de un artículo de opinión publicado en el New York Times.
GENERACIÓN DE PAPEL.
Piden cancelar a Pepe Le Pew por supuestamente normalizar el acoso sexual, pero idolatran y hasta cantan las canciones de reguetoneros como Bad Bunny, Maluma etc que con sus letras insultan y dejan por el piso a las mujeres

I'm starting to see my own generation #Millennials kind of low key going after #zoomers and initially I was part of that until I realized something: it's boils down to frustration of Millennials being the poorest generation in seventy years..
And then seeing article after article promoting zoomers as being more successful than our generation. So it's likely the media pushing Gen Y and Gen Z to go at each other.
Another reason for the split could be because of the 2020 primaries. In 2016 39% of the Dem primary electorate was 44 and younger, in 2020 it was 35% for those bw 18-44. Younger voters did not turn out in large enough numbers which has led to resentment bw Gen Z and Y.

WTF is "The Squeeze"???

A thread... Image
Younger generations (#millennials, #GenX, #GenZ 👋) are working and studying harder, while being hit with higher costs, expenses and lower income than ever before.

This is a 360 degree squeeze!

Now the data can do the talking ImageImage
When adjusting for inflation, people in their 20s and 30s are making LESS 📉 today than people were in the 1970s.

@JCRED_SJU 2. The planet could see a greater temperature increase in the next 50 years than it did in the last 6,000 years combined. This could place 1 of every 3 people alive outside the climate niche where humans can thrive. (@propublica)
