Good. Fuck Musk and fuck any of his companies and cronies.

Maybe actually take a stand and get things done instead of being hollow shells ringing full of corporate money, you pieces of worthless shit

I hope the penalty is being drawn and quartered in Times Square live on national television

It’s wild, right? Almost like infinitely compounding upward growth is not realistic

Great visualization and further explication for more visual learners. Love this type of comment on Lemmy where it’s to further discussion and help clarify.

Appreciate that now I can use “local minimum” in a correct way with people :D

They’re taught that the long run is simply a succession of short runs and that therefore short term and long term economic thinking and planning are the same,which is,of course, glaringly wrong.

Anything to fill the insatiable hole in them where a soul would be in a real human.

They constantly fall under fallacies of composition or aggregation. To think in the aggregate and long term is largely thrown under the rug.

It’s “right” for a single company to slash wages and gut employment to seek higher profit margins… But when every company does it, it ultimately destroys the capacity of the bottom to uphold the top and it collapses.

Remember when Republicans were the ones chomping at the bit to destroy Russia?

I do. I was alive during the end of the Cold War.

Fucking ghouls just keep getting worse.

As more people start to grow up in the fucked climate, they will see it as the norm.

This is aside from all the misinformation and disinformation being thrown at everyone.

“And the poor shall not be allowed even the pleasure of sugary treats. Yea, they shall have their food stamps slashed for the sin of poverty.”

Book of Jebus, chapter 6, verses 3 and 4.

Seriously, though, it seems like everything these people do is just to inflict more suffering.

Yes. Taking an existing thing and improving upon it is the literal definition of innovation.

Thank you for typing up the reply I hadn’t gotten to yet.

You the real MVP

The other person who responded to me made a very all written post but it gets a core assumption completely wrong.

They seemed to think that tax revenue in some way has to happen for spending to happen. That’s why they think GDP has anything to do with our ability to service debt. But the federal government creates money ex nihilo.

Money has to be created before it can be destroyed through taxation. Spending and back stopping creation of money by private banks through the reserve system comes first. You can’t destroy something you haven’t created.

It’s sad, really. Economists and politicians have blinded everyone with what I think of as “the money delusion”.

It doesn’t matter if the money can be “gathered up” to be spent on things we need. We do not rely on the money of the wealthy. What matters is actual, real resources and services we can provide.

The national “debt” is a misnomer. That’s the amount of dollars left in circulation that have not been destroyed through taxation, as well as the “dollars” that pay interest which we call bonds.

I’m glad to see at least a handful of other people who understand. Fight the good fight, fellow human.

This.

More people need to understand that the debt of a sovereign nation isn’t analogous to that of a household.

Public sector debt is private sector surplus.

Acts 4:34-36

“For there was not a needy person among them, for all who were owners of land or houses would sell them and bring the proceeds of the sales and lay them at the apostles’ feet, and they would be distributed to each as any had need.”

They mean this Christianity, right???

Old School Runescape. Getting ready to try some raids with a couple friends.

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia. Friend bought me the DLC for my upcoming birthday because it’s one of my favorite souls likes.

If this is his thought process, he should take it a step further.
