    And on the other side, there’s just a deep desire to believe that we can have free college, free healthcare, that what we’ve done hasn’t gone far enough, and that we just need to, you know, go as far as, you know, Scandinavia, whatever that means, and half the people don’t know what that means, but it’s something that they deeply feel
    This is what irked me about the segment of idiots that supported Sanders' poverty pimping. When people would hold onto the stupid notion that countries like the Scandanavian nations with 2-10 million people who have working universal healthcare and other en lements, but they have ZERO handle on proportionate correlation. What is so hard to understand: USA: 350 MILLION ing people ANY of the "successful" pro-socialist Scandanavian countries: >10 million. That's just simple ing math and everytime it was brought up, it was quickly ignored. TOO many en led people in this country and 1st world poverty really isn't that bad. Flip phones and dsl internet is still better than ing mud cakes for dinner and huts built on top of landfills.

    Why would anyone be thrilled to lose almost a billion dollars?

    I'd kill myself if I lost that much money.

    Boutons is right. It wasn't his money so he just carried on.

    You guys seem to not have a basic understanding of the IRS and taxes. The IRS doesn't let you write off a 900 million dollar loss unless it was legitimate and your actual money to start with. An IRS accepted NOL carry forward means you really lost it. I'm sure a lot of others lost money with him too and his claim to be "an amazing businessman" is certainly in question with those kind of bad bets, but I have no reason to doubt the losses were real.
