Tell me you know nothing about US immigration without telling me you know nothing about US immigration.

The Left sure does a great job proving they are anti-racist people who care about the little guy....oh wait

>you are exactly the lazy, privileged, misinformed idiot

You got literally everything wrong. You are a white guy who has enough disposable income to mess with options trading.

The amount of irony here is palpable.

Dude. Let me promise you - 90% of references to theta, including this post, don’t use the term correctly.

It’s the diff between saying “stock XYZ might go to 100 from 80 by tomorrow” and “…to 100 from 80 within a year”.

You’ll notice if you open the options chain, the farther the strike the lower the price, and the farther out in time the higher the price.

Theta properly refers to the diff between same strike options over x time. So every time “theta gang got me” but price moved through a strike they missed the point of theta.

> net unproductive people.

lol, the "unproductive people" are the privileged white demographic. You are getting engineers, doctors, professors, phd students on scholarships and affluent families as your immigrants, while you squander away your stimulus checks on 0dte plays.

But keep licking up to the right-wing nuts, who do everything possible to make your life difficult, ensure terrible wages, fuel up military industrial complex stealing funds from the most basic social support system and write corporations blank checks.

The irony, if you knew how to use that word, is not realising how you are exactly the lazy, privileged, misinformed idiot that is a product of a failing system.

Construction of buildings, putting plumbing lines, electricity outlets is not driving a country's innovation and tech lead, as shocking as it may be to comprehend that. This is such an inane comprehension of real world, I don't know where to begin explaining how stupid it is. By your "logic" - not even worth calling that, schools failed you terribly - developing countries should be world leaders because they are in fact overcrowded with low-skilled workers.

It's worth reminding everyone that inflation is a YOY rate of change metric. If everything goes up 10% in year one and then another 5% year two, the reported inflation rate will be 5% despite everything having gone up 15.5% in two years.

With enough time inflation will eventually "come down" so a decreasing number is misleading with regards to how much stuff increased in cost.
