I'm heading to the supermarket on Monday for "much lower grocery prices."

[robertlaporta]

Less regulation, so more bank collapses and more railroad failures? ... got it!👍

[bartsimpson]

This is not a serious discussion. Total BS.

[RenzoTx]

These people are out of touch with reality. They discussed everything, including cutting SS, but nothing about increasing tax revenue.

[bartsimpson]

Any discussion of cutting the deficit (like this absurd discussion) that doesn’t talk about massive healthcare corruption and social security is absurd. This discussion is pathetic and absurd. These people refuse to talk truth.

[damonkatos]

You’re looking at an oligarch when you see someone from Blackrock.

[patriciasturdevant]

I think this guy is all about lowering his own tax bracket. I don't know how you can mirror productivity and a high work force without the immigration influx into the mix. What America needs is for the rich to pay their fair share of taxes, l mean it's the regular Joe consumer who buys their products, who makes them rich and we should be getting the tax breaks so the consumer based economy can stay afloat.

[anacisewski]

Pure oligarchy project 2025 propaganda.

[tamarahagenbeek]

We didn't hear anything the victims of the Epstien, list released by US Court on January 3, 2024...does that also mean their will be no plan to bring our children home?

[tilkyxu]

Very realistic POV from Michael towards the end of the interview

[damonkatos]

What he’s really saying “Let’s roll with another $8-10 trillion in debt in the next 4 years”

[jgilmo]

How to Ballance the Budget? very easy, everyone pay the same tax braket as I do... Im a Dishwasher at Applebees, so thats not too much to ask for is it? Elon! Jeff! Mark! I pay Twice and even three times more in Taxes than the Billionares.

[alexi]

This blackrock guy is useless and not relevant at this time. We have massive layoffs by big tech companies. Why don't you interview someone who understands main street and the cost of housing. Florida, North Carolina, LA weather disasters, well people affected could use lower interest rates

[carnivaltym]

Eternal optimism, entirely misplaced.

[kevinl]

To be honest, Western countries have been in recession since the trade war started in 2018, the world knew they had just cooked the book to make the economy look better

[Danaadiong]

You right the better resigned the fed treasury and ecb

[Danaadiong]

The debt all in all out of 900 is 300 whose debt is that? Thats trillion globally

[Danaadiong]

A lot of bond we call it repo but in the old term its a ponsischeme credit diffult or prime mortgage the 10 yrs bond the make it 2 yrs you add up the yields of the 10 yrs bond is blowing by the wind because there is a number but wheres the money in the treasure look at the gold nothing happen because its not there thats why the will make bitcoin reserves nice new system

[thomaskim]

Send Boris Johnson to mediate any Ukraine/Russia peace negotiations. /s

[Danaadiong]

The problem is not the wall street the fed the banks and the treasury.are the prob plus the debt.
