The Price Is Right (1956 American game show) Puns

Zell Miller, Governor of Georgia (1991-1999): "Some Georgians persist in believing that the pride of the south is better defined by a symbol of defiance and intolerance: the Confederate Battle Flag, which was imposed on our state flag in 1956. Of all the arguments that have been to keeping this flag, the most infuriating to me is the contention that if we don't, we will somehow forget the sacrifices made by those who fought for the confederacy. It has nothing to do with the bravery of the confederate troops. It is clear the flag was changed in 1956 to identify Georgia with the dark side of the confederacy. That desire to deprive some Americans of their equal rights that have a birth right of all Americans. And yes, the determination to destroy the United States if necessary to achieve that goal. The legislators who voted to change the flag in 1956 were prepared to defy the supremacy clause of the U.S. constitution. They were prepared to eliminate our public schools in order to maintain segregated schools, segregated public transportation, segregated drinking fountains. We have long since repudiated every element of those shameful 1956 days of defiance except for the flag they created. We now proudly send our sons and even our daughters abroad to defend the United States of America yet we maintain as a symbol of our state, a flag that challenges the very existence of the United States of America. And a flag that exhibits pride of the enslavement of our ancestors"

Yep, I hope they lose for being so ruthless.

Edit: the only time I will give someone a pass for doing it is when they are basically fucking over a contestant who just fucked over another contestant.

Example: Number two contestant bids 2000, number three contestant bids 2001, and then the fourth contestant bids 2002. I will actually root for the fourth contestant.

Price is Right was at my local casino and was called on stage to spin the wheel. Was not expecting to go on stage and was a few beers in already. I beat two other contestants and the girl was pissed. She thought she won and even said "fuck you" as she walked away

By transferring to CS or buying through CS, investors remove shares from the pool of shortable shares. This means any short position on the shares removed from the DTCC must be closed. So as investors transfer/remove shares, the price will continue to rise and the stream of ammo SHFs have slowly runs dry. Investors cannot directly register ALL of the float because the “real shares” will not be able to be located without closing EVERY short position (or risk exposing the illegal naked shorting that DEFINITELY isn’t occurring). The number of directly registered shares will approach the float until we reach an inflection point where the price has risen so much by slowly forcing shorts to close one at a time or “Brick by brick” that marge will come a calling.

TA;DR More directly registered shares means: More short positions are forced to close which means: Price rises AND fewer shares exist to continue to (legally) short which means: Harder to suppress the price/price rises faster which means: Rrrrring ring marge

TL;DR Investors can continue to apply pressure to SHFs by: Buying shares through CS And Transferring shares to CS Until Eventually name your price
