This is what happened when I pulled back the graph a single year:

I think you're assuming a non-human fantasy dwarf here.

CPU manufacturers were getting jealous at the other hardware manufacturers claiming shortages in this artificial scarcity scenario.

You could say that about many countries, but the number of genocidal ethnostates out there is a lot smaller.

It's prosperous thanks to heavy support from the west through billions in welfare and trillions spent fighting wars for them. The private companies opening branches in israel is another form of support. Also, their nuclear program was built by stealing our secrets which apparently we allow.

True, sometimes the most abusive businesses are small.

The real fantasy is thinking a genocidal ethnostate that relies heavily on billions in welfare from the west is sustainable.

I will not shed a tear if israel is wiped out, just like I wouldn't have shed a tear if I was around to see nazi germany wiped out.

Biden could've slammed the brakes on Trump by appointing an AG who would've pursued prosecution and put Trump behind bars for his many crimes. Instead he appointed Merrick Garland, who was as useless as himself. Such is standard operating procedure of the democratic party: let bad guys go so you can have someone worse to run against instead of actually making things better.

No, that’s not how hijackings work, and not why they decreased. They did not “let the hijackers do what they want,” and anyway, how would that discourage hijacking? If they were letting the hijackers do whatever they want, wouldn’t that ENCOURAGE hijackers?

Yes it was how it used to work, that's why the planes would end up diverted. When that stopped being standard protocol, the hijackings reduced. You got it on that last sentence in that paragraph but for some reason think I'm arguing changing standard protocol to NOT allow hijackers to do their thing would encourage hijackers. You read my post backwards.

Hijackings went down because in the past the protocol was to let the hijacker do what they want since it just ended in a diverted plane with no one harmed. That doesn't work anymore and it's not because of the TSA.

They are a stock buyer and holder, so they take part in that pricing. If inflated valuations became a detriment, the stocks would be priced accordingly. We shouldn't desire unrealistic p/e ratios.
