As Carlin said, “It’s A Big Club, And You Ain’t In It.”
Meaning, our idle musings are entirely immaterial to the motivations of power brokers.
This is the vast, comical gap between our "discussions" and the actual levers of global power.

Referring to someone as they prefer is something we all do, all the time...without even thinking about it. Doing it for a neighbor or a stranger shouldn't be any different.

"But the real way to get happiness is by giving out happiness to other people. Try & leave this world a little better than you found it, & when your turn comes to die you can die happy in feeling that at any rate you have not wasted your time but have done your best." - Robert Baden-Powell

Success Trap: Homo sapiens evolved so effectively that we conquered every external threat on the planet.
Now, we are left with ourselves—and a competitive, predatory instinct that has nowhere to turn but on each other.

One of the most robust findings in monetary policy is the near-perfect negative correlation between central bank independence and inflation.
Meta-analyses covering 150+ countries confirm that independence is associated with more credible monetary policy and lower, more stable inflation.

Pretty wild chart crime from the WH today.
Kinda looks like the green bar is over twice the size of the red one, right?
The red bar indicates 80.9 and the green one 81.8.
The difference is .9 or an increase of 1.1%.
Deliberately deceptive.
