The only American who won't acknowledge this Administration's failed economic policies is Joe Biden. "Shrink-flation' is the least of our worries compared to rising rents and stagnant wages, but it is an undeniable indicator of how bad our inflation has gotten. I have $100k that i like to invest in a non-retirement account, any advice on that?

[@BridgetMiller-]

I would avoid index funds, mutual funds, and specific stocks for the time being. Right now, the best option is a fixed income of five percent. Put money aside for the times when the market really starts to bounce back.

[@bernadofelix]

45% of Americans do not invest in the stock market because of lack of guidance. Every year you don't invest, you are falling behind. I’m hitting numbers in the stock market I used to dream of… Going from $50k to $600k in my portfolio is surreal all thanks to insights from my financial advisor.

What these idiots proposing these taxes don't realize is the huge risk people are taking when they invest.. Of course the people proposing these taxes don't suffer from that risk since they have all the insider information they need to always make good trades. Not only do you have the risk of losing all your money in the market if you are in the wrong companies when the market or a stock crashes, they want more than half your money if you succeed. You aren't encouraging people to invest with that sort of policy.. You are doing the exact opposite, and that would cause people to pull their money out, and companies will suffer because of lack of funding when people don't invest in them anymore.

These companies believe the remaining workers are just gonna do the work of 2-3 people for the pay of 1 person 😂😂😂 that won't last long 🥱

@@freshmclovin4593 Automation. I am a computer scientist. We're already have the prototypes. We're now doing audits and sample test to see where AI and automation can move into. The only place that you'll need humans will be security and the mechanic that replaces the kiosk. We are also narrowing down the "vulnerability surface area" to dissuade customers from stealing or making it almost impossible to steal. We wouldn't ever decide to replace most remedial human jobs, if it wasn't for the current inflation and insane labor cost. It can all be reversed if the price economics get better, but Biden is forcing alot of small businesses to go as a "full stack owner" or "automate everything." Its sad.

[@rrrealqueen]

​@@complexity5545 thats why more retail stores are closing down. Too much overhead cost, replacing staff with AI or sending job offers Over seas, and focusing on direct ti consumer (online sales) to prevent theft. Most retail chains will close especially dollar tree they cant afford to stay open any longer.

@@complexity5545 what customers???? With automation everyone wont have a job so who's gonna be buying these products ??🤔🥱😂😂 ya thought that one out yet ?? Since like you said there will be only certain jobs available , which means less spending power yikes 😬

CA has one of the highest tax rates but also one of the highest deficit rates.

So our property taxes will sky rocket

There should be no property tax

[@rtquest22]

​@@mariehartley6840there should be no capital gains, IRA, 401k taxes either.

The government wastes our tax dollars. I am 100% against giving them on more penny until they can balance a budget.

[@Algoo-X]

Same here

[@lv4077]

I wonder what workers wages would be if every penny of gross profit was taken from businesses?Yeah ,slave wages since there would be nothing to pay in wages

44.6 % Capital gains tax..for everyone.. Rich and poor. 20$ an hour is 7.80 an hour.. At 39c per-dollar. Digital biotech.. Banking. Even your silver and gold stacks will be attached... Losing half it's value.

And they can’t understand why so many Americans are leaving the country. I’ll be moving to either Florida or Nevada for a couple years then heading to New Zealand. Friendly people and eventual free healthcare and a beautiful landscape to settle an open my spirituality shop in. Can’t wait. I go there every year. Can’t wait to go there permanently.

[@user-jz7bw6yf9s]

They say it won't hurt the little guy. You tax a business is the worst. They cut employees and raise prices to compensate for the tax loss. What a fruit cake

[@teg5135]

Reduce taxes to 8% for all, no loophole. Watch the economy take off and revenue will be generated. Deregulate and reduce the size of the federal govt. regulations are created and written by big business whose agenda is to reduce competition. And isn’t it something that his son doesn’t pay taxes on millions, but middle class needs and other Americans need to pay.

[@kannermw]

Seriously? Do you realize 40% of Americans don't pay any taxes and now you want them to pay 8%? 😂😂😂 Govt will just rebate it back. The first step needs to be cutting spending and mandating a balanced budget.

[@teg5135]

@@kannermw absolutely agree that spending must be cut. Reducing the size of the fed will cut spending but you would need to reduce remaining agency budgets. There can be no rebates or loopholes in the tax cut. I’m taxed on my income by Fed and state. Then the money that I was already taxed is taxed multiple times afterward. If I own property I have to pay real estate taxes, why? Do I own it or not? If I own a car, then I have to pay personal property taxes…and I paid a sales tax to purchase that too. Why? I thought I owned it not the government. I buy groceries and other items I pay a sales tax. If I eat out, my local govt pages a tax on that too. I’m sick of the weight of this and meanwhile the politicians get rich (as do their children and other family members) while being in office, a great pension if they stay and they don’t have to take social security when they get old. They should have to balance the budget and it should go back to when the 2nd Bush took office.

[@kannermw]

@@teg5135 Do some basic math calculations and show me were 8% would ever be sufficient. As far as your car or home. You don't own the roads, water, sewer, infrastructure that you rely on that must be maintained. Plus schools, police, fire, etc. This does not come for free so your argument has no merit because I is completely unrealistic.

[@teg5135]

@@kannermw check out where our tax dollars are being spent. Look at the ridiculous grants that HHS administers (including sending money to foreign countries), NIH, and others. Billions. How many millions have been given to universities, meanwhile Feds guarantees student loans. What a grift to colleges and universities. The administrators in both higher learning institutions and public schools need to be re-examined. Do we need a DHS anymore, the Patriot Act, FISA and CISA? It’s corrupted. Over 9 million unvetted people transported into our interior automatically becoming a burden on every tax payer, FISA has been abused over 100,000 times, and who are the feds to be censuring Americans. EPA? How many man made disasters do we have in the US that cannot be cleaned up, and the government is going to change the climate? Billions invested in technology and business that we don’t want, and in which they have traded for a whole set of other pollution and environmental problems. And since taxing obviously doesn’t matter anymore, they just print more money whenever they want to…waste and abuse in the federal government is enormous. Their spending is out of control, meanwhile I live on a shoestring budget as do most Americans, so the fed can do massive spending on programs that are not needed. Please look at where $$$$ are going.
