An Opportunity?

December 19, 2023 by Andrew Tobias

If you bought some OPRT with money you could truly afford to lose, as suggested here, here, and here, and here, you’re either a little behind or ahead depending on what you paid.  (I’ve paid as much as $5.98 for a little and $2.33 for a lot.  It closed at $3.19 yesterday.)  And you may want to watch this video.

Executive summary: There’s a clear path to a triple or tentuple, though obviously no guarantee.



Bonnie Bossert:  “Have you read this?  Timothy Egan’s A Fever in the Heartland: The Ku Klux Klan’s Plot to Take Over America, and the Woman Who Stopped Them.   Scary parallels to today.”

I have not — but it gets a lot of stars.  I plan to listen.



Which of these FDR-created Democratic socialist things would most Americans want to ditch if they had the chance: the minimum wage? unemployment insurance? the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)? the Securities and Exchange Commission? Social Security?

And how about earlier socialist programs like public schools, public roads, and public libraries?  Or later ones like Medicare?   

Just saying.
