Why doesn’t the local (overwhelmingly democrat) government do anything about it? It’s their responsibility and it’s their mismanagement which has led to the problem.

Blaming this on white people is absurd. Go look at the races of the local Jackson government (the people actually to blame for this mismanagement).

Nice try making everything a partisan issue but in this case the city government, which is overwhelmingly democrat, is the one to blame for this problem. The local government has been corrupt and mismanaging the city for decades. Mismanagement over a long period of time makes the city basically unsustainable, as taxes decline they can’t provide basic services. It’s a sad story but making this about partisan politics is disingenuous and deflects attention from the real issues.

Churning can be great. It’s not for everybody. The banks are willing to put up with losing money on a handful of customers because the majority of people are not responsible enough and wind up getting sucked in.
It feels to good to be true but it is. IMO Now that churning has become so mainstream I think banks will scale back the bonuses as we get into a credit crunch over the next few years.

You’re ahead of most of your peers. If your goal is to retire early try to work towards maxing out your 401k.

They had like half a million war deaths. Of course it was a mistake to join the war.

I guess the pro of having barely any economic growth for generations is that it’s easy to meet your energy needs.

At what point is it straight up incompetence that the local government (controlled by black democrats) ran the city services into the ground after decades of corruption and mismanagement? Blaming this on the state government makes no sense when it’s the city governments responsibility. They are the ones that fucked up, many many times. The residents of Jackson, MS vote for incompetent leaders and this is the result. Period.
