Episode suggestion: United States Radium Corporation

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Radium_Corporation

In the 1920s, women workers--known as the Radium Girls--of the USRC waged a pivotal legal battle against their employer's labor abuse while their jaws rotted off from radium poisoning.

TIL that the "Radium Girls" working at the United States Radium Corporation from 1917-1938 were so contaminated with radiation that it could be detected with a Geiger counter above their graves. They suffered anemia, bone fractures, necrosis of the jaw, and death. yourlawyer.com/library/20…

China and Russia's main goal is to topple the USD as reserve currency. This is why it's VITAL that the United States integrate CBDCs. This will require massive regulation on corporations and political reform. The current unrest we're seeing is the result of unchecked corporate power. Let me explain.

In order for America to make the necessary innovations it requires political reform and unification, in order to understand how America got to this point one must familiarize themselves with The Telecommunications Act of 1996, Citizen's United, and the repeal of Net Neutrality. This post is to inform people about these three pieces of legislation as I think it is vital people become familiar with them.

Preamble:

Every country in the world is competing in the cryptocurrency sphere, especially those that have publicly banned them. If the US Dollar can be toppled as the reserve currency it means a new set of rules on the world stage. It seems historically speaking we're at the end of a cycle. The American hegemony of the 20th century is over, the US empire is no longer a singular super power that can dictate terms absolutely. Unfortunately the PAX AMERICANA of the last 70 years that began in 1945 after WWII is at it's end. Many things have happened to usher this in. America's internal decay is decades in the making and the confusion and internal strife we're experiencing is the result of unchecked corporate power, as well as technological innovations that enable asymmetrical warfare that expose the unguarded soft underbelly of american democracy and norms(facebook, twitter, reddit, social media in general).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The American political system has not seen current levels of corruption since before the great depression when laissez-faire liberalism was at its zenith. Unless we act now and decisively to fix such corruption, American democracy will perish silently while we sit at home watching FoxNews and cat videos on YouTube.

I will begin with a quote from Elizabeth Anderson,

β€œHence, any assessment of the epistemic powers of particular democracies must pay close attention to its institutions and norms of dissent: are there diverse, open, accessible channels for people from all walks of life, in all social positions, to publicly express dissent? Do social norms welcome the expression of dissent by all discontented parties? Do they require decision makers to take dissent seriously, and hold them accountable if they don’t? Negative answers to these questions indicate epistemic weaknesses in political decision-making.” (Anderson, The Epistemology of Democracy, pp. 17)

The United States Steel Corporation - $X - is going to Valhalla with inflation this summer.

EDIT 6-17: Market rallied tech as growth was flooded after news that rates were not increasing. This doesn't change the thesis, the next meetings will continue to project earlier rates as inflation absolutely won't be contained at this rate, and paper leveraged growth stocks are going to feel the pain the most after the quad witching tomorrow. Here are the HRC futures updated for today.

HRC prices June 17

If you think steel demand is going to go down as we approach the biggest RECOVERY SUMMER with shortages all around the block and not enough workers / employment, think again. Inflation happens for a reason.

This will be my final update to my DD, I fully accept that my thesis can be wrong and encourage you to do your own DD. I'm confident and remain bullish and bought the dip.

DISCLAIMER: I am not a financial advisor, do your due diligence. Magnum Opus on $X - the sexiest ticker in the history of the market.

My position - 350 $28 calls July 9 added yesterday for $35K, commons from last year.

Options proof

**Markets had a rough day yesterday, but is primed to bounce back.** After JPow spoke of inflation and rate hikes, SPY dipped to 420.69 but swiftly rebounded like a check from your wife's boyfriend because he didn't buy into $X. This is what this post is about: The United States Steel Corporation ($X) and why it's not just πŸš€πŸš€ to the moon, but to a whole new damn universe - of inflation and summer tendies. Some of you dipped into $CLF last week but we're going further. We Marvel multiverse now (ps Loki sucked ass).

United States Steel Corporation a.k.a. $X steel, is the oldest steel producing company in the U.S., and 2nd largest behind Nucor Corporation ($NUE). It was founded by J.P.
