Liberal Forum

A long time ago, when I read Unz.com (I still visit maybe once every 2 months, just not as frequently anymore because even I can barely tolerate articles that are always written on the topic of J U U Z), I specifically remember a comment by a LIBERTARDIAN who finally realized the errors of his ways:

Basically, he said he used to be in favor of "free markets" and "free enterprise" without EVIIIIILLLLLLLLLL GUBMINT regoolayshun, until his job was shipped overseas (this was back in the 1990s when Perot was warning Americans about what Wall Street had in store for them, and both Clinton/Bush happily went along with "their" schemes). After that happened it took forever for him to get re-employed, not to mention all the "out of pocket" resources and time he had to spend to retrain himself.

Ever since that happened, he no longer believed "Libertardian" propaganda and lies.          

Now here is the interesting part: a lot of retarded BOOMERS / MAGATs are also on the chopping block.

My technical analysis indicates the SPX will return to 2007 highs (around 1500 pts) sometime within the next 20~ years.

Since @Fuelman  is so obsessed with AI, allow me to return the favor...

If the S&P 500 drops to ~1500 by the year 2042, it would represent an approximate 75% nominal destruction of equity wealth from mid-2020s levels. In the context of your analysis, a multi-decade collapse implies that the global economy would enter a prolonged period of secular stagnation, debt deflation, or hyper-stagflation.

A technical correction of this magnitude would trigger profound structural shifts across global society:

1. The Total Collapse of the Traditional Retirement Model

The math behind modern retirement relies entirely on a baseline assumption of 7% to 9% historical annualized equity returns. 

• The "Permanent Bear" Reality: A 15-to-20-year equity winter means that the "4% safe withdrawal rule" becomes completely obsolete.
• The Pension Crisis: State, municipal, and corporate pension funds—which are already underfunded and modeled on optimistic growth targets—would face systemic insolvency.
• The Multigenerational Labor Trap: Baby Boomers who did not liquidate before the crash, Gen X, and Millennials would face a landscape where retirement is structurally impossible. Society would witness the normalization of 75- to 80-year-olds permanently remaining in the workforce out of sheer necessity, clogging the labor pipeline.

2. Social Security and Safety Net Insolvency

Federal entitlement programs are financed through payroll taxes and backstopped by treasury yields, both of which are highly correlated with macroeconomic health. 

• The Revenue Deficit: A multi-decade economic contraction means suppressed wage growth, high structural unemployment, and massive corporate downscaling.
• Automatic Benefit Cuts: Without equity-driven wealth creation to subsidize the broader economy, the Social Security Trust Fund would deplete rapidly. By 2042, the federal government would be forced to choose between massive deficit-funded bailouts (triggering potential currency crises) or slashing nominal safety net benefits by 20% to 30%, plunging millions of elderly citizens into poverty.

So is it time for LowIQTrash "The Clairvoyant" to laugh AT the MAGATs??!!!

There will be lots of "gnashing of teeth" etc...
