The last vestiges of financial sanity have been expunged with today’s orchestrated actions. Beyond words. Over and out!

Right unbelievably tragic. I almost want to tell them was I learned from American Indians, a powder you don’t want to breath in or it will tear up your lungs and not a chemical or illegal but could wind up in the wrong hands and lethal.

That reminds me, I heard in some places they even banned peppier spray. I learned as a teen although I didn’t need it then if all else failed I could outrun anyone that needed outrunning. Pepper spray idea was stolen from Mexican girls. They used to carry very hot powdered chili peppers. Good to have when camping or traveling too since it’s not illegal.. yet. Women and teens should carry it with them and practice using it first. Wide sweep across the eyes then run. Boys can carry it too or screw drivers if someone pulls a knife on them. Many other ideas.

In light of the news that JDS Energy & Mining is being sued by Victoria Gold’s receivers for its bad work, we remind readers of recent JDS mine builds:
• Silvertip (failed 2020)
• Madsen (failed 2022)
• Eagle (failed 2024)
• Premier (failed 2024)

Looks like it. It could be worse. We could be living in the UK or Europe where weds have to ark ourselves against trolls, goblins, and evil spirit possessed migrants running around.

The suckers who bought the IPO and the first day rally truly deserve to have their financial asses kicked. The whole Space X narrative about data centers in the sky was blithering nonsense.

They did? Lol We seen this pattern.. support .many times before. The major support is the previous all time high now they attribute to 1980 but in April 2011 silvers high was 49:80.

Ubi right, they like to take not give but if they did they’re not going to afford those robotic made cars either and a lot of other things.

Of course, we’re getting murdered worse than all of them.
What a joke.

If robots replace humans in the workplace then how are humans going to live? I am not optimistic about the situation.
Maybe a UBI is instituted but then no one will have control over their own lives. The gov will be calling the shots.
Thank God he is almost gone…..

Silver breaks $60

Oil breaks $72.
Dollar rips higher, it is king.

Ai verses robots
Top capitalist using technology simply for profit is a sort of weaponizing it against the very humanity that they make their money.
In mid-June 2026, a Tesla allegedly operating on an automated system crashed into a home in Texas, killing a 76-year-old woman inside.
Why dont these cars have a better way to over ride the automation when quick action is needed? Yet Uber and Lyft dont require a driver present in these automated cars for safety of the passengers for a plethora of reasons.

First Industrial Revolution. In 19th-century England, skilled textile artisans known as the Luddites rioted and smashed machines. Their opposition wasn’t entirely about hating progress; it was rooted in the fact that industrialists used automation to depress wages, lower product quality, and strip away workers’ autonomy.
The previous wave of automation in car factories replaced heavily repetitive physical tasks. Today’s AI expansion threatens white-collar, judgment-based, and creative work, creating a whole new demographic of workers who feel suddenly vulnerable.
The financial rewards of automation enriching capitalists rather than being shared with the labor force that implements it.
Even if new jobs eventually emerge, automation often creates a painful gap where a massive chunk of experienced workers lose their livelihoods.
In many fields, employees do not fear robots automating tedious or dangerous tasks; they fear being forced to compete with, or be subservient to, machines that lack human judgment and adaptability.
Historical protests were rarely about stopping technology completely. They were a form of collective bargaining that forced society to address the human cost of progress, often resulting in legal labor laws, minimum wages, standard working conditions, and safety nets.
To protest is insanity. I’m not familiar with the field of work you are in but perhaps people can
personalize and reflect a empathetic argument explaining how AI and robotics could or are impacting their specific field today.
ipso 22:54, but it has always been thus,
ever since Ugg tied a wooden spade behind his ox.
All the welding and paint spraying is done in the car factory by computer. Why the outrage now? Or, outrage didn’t work before, so expecting it to work now is insanity.
I wonder if that’s going to be the new sales pitch.
Offering only a limited amount of shares of a stock.
Probably not a good time to talk about this less we about hit bottom
