I merely made an off-graph observation, son.
America will be shyting BRICS.
I don't make the news, son. I just report it.
AI Overview
Since 2008, Europe has experienced slow, volatile economic growth, marked by stagnation and underperformance compared to the U.S.
EU GDP grew by only ~13.5% between 2008 and 2023, while the U.S. grew by 87%. Following the 2008 financial crisis, the Eurozone debt crisis, COVID-19, and energy shocks caused near-zero growth in many nations, creating a "lost decade".

Classic self diagnosis...a perfect example of why you should be allowed to yap.....so other's may form correct opinions.

The radio guy calls the opposition "DemCons" and points fingers constantly as progressives are the problem.
It was enlightening to hear a conservative get on his show and say pointing that finger is not going to win his side votes. MAGA is figuring out their base is in the basement.
BV, I reallly never understood what critical thinking was.. And I know enough to know I may never fullly understand it. But I do appreciate the wisdom you share.
One lib was pissed at Spanbergers meek response to his SOTU.. Politically, MAGA is flipping like Pancakes at IHOP. Being a Nasty Girl ain't going to help. How we ever reconcile this canyon between us is becoming an Evil Knievel Snake River Canyon Jump.
Logging out.. Turning the Troll Off.. I must minimize time wasted in this pit of MAGAt Nazis and focus on my family.Blackvegetable » 28 Feb 2026, 7:35 am » wrote: ↑ We have to stop indulging the idea that Stupid is just another POV...

Doyou know what the R in BRICS stands for, you **** idiot?

That's just stupid.
I was commenting on your CHART. It hides europe's failures by including them with the east andf global south.
which belongs to Biden according to mainstream economic theory?
None. It's not what Isaid.Blackvegetable » 28 Feb 2026, 8:28 am » wrote: ↑ Which "mainstream economic theory" argues that capital markets price backwards?
The shortest route is to point out that the focus of THIS OP is the performance of equity markets since January, 2025.Cannonpointer » 28 Feb 2026, 8:32 am » wrote: ↑ None. It's not what Isaid.
What I referenced is that the policies of the outgoing president are generally considered to get the credit or blame for the economy in a transition year.
You understand these things when it is convenient.
Sounds like a LOAD of CRAP to me... The REST of the world is:
