262·10 days agoi know i’m being a
but i despise the term ‘taxpayer funds’/‘taxpayer money’. besides being completely wrong in nearly all cases, it places taxes above the people, above labor.‘American taxpayer is paying for the genocide in Gaza’. No, every person/entity using U.S. Dollars is paying for it. Even foreign countries are indirectly paying for it.
if you want the mainstream perspective look up ‘quantity theory of money’. from that it follows, less spending means less money and less inflation. so, spending rules reduce inflation by constraining the Government (but not commercial bank lending).
it can be true (sometimes), if you leave the economy with massive unemployment due to insufficient spending so that people don’t have money, it slows down and eventually shrinks but hey atleast there is ze price stabilité.
if you want non-mainstream macroecon books, these two ones I have read and can recommend. 1 2
153·13 days agoThe profits being made on those assets aren’t being kept for Russia to use in the future. They’re now being used to fund Ukraine
Rachel, Where do “profits” on these assets come from? These aren’t corporate bonds but Government bonds. The Governments (US, UK and others) are paying the defence contractors using public money.
If there were no Russian foreign reserves being stolen, would the west not have sent weapons to Ukraine? Of course not! The weapons manufacturers have to make profits, it would come out of a different Government account.
They are making excuses to make it look like the public isn’t paying for it.

Nearly drowned once falling into a lake and not knowing how to swim. I didn’t think about death, it was more “how do I get out”. Luckily someone else got my hand.
Its an ancient argument and your answer is correct.
There is no cock check at restroom doors anyone can enter.
France’s public-sector deficit is projected to reach around 5.6% of GDP this year and go over 6% in 2025. The EU has a 3% limit on deficits.
oh no, not even Germany follows that deficit limit, its literally a number they pulled out of their asses to fuck up welfare systems. fucking BBC
Oh no not the Putler. Will US sanction Israel then?

Besides, I don’t like phone motherboards turning into ewaste.
L tbh, if the thieves steal my phone I would rather them be able to have someone else use it than throw it away. hopefully they find a way around.
atleast they can still break it down for parts.
71·2 months agoMy point was that if you want to host western copyrighted content, it’s adversaries are usually a good choice.
Regardless it’s clear that you are just a dick who wants to stir shit.
US is literally the worst country to host “copyrighted” content. It’s a oligarch run shithole, all the courts work for them.
Heck even western Europe clears the US.
I hate ycombinator but here:
That video is the kind of shit Hindutva fascists would come up with.
Still a pretty good deal
It’s nice and all but none of the benefits are going to Indian people.
The Indian oil corps (state owned or otherwise) resell it to other countries or sell it domestically at a markup over INTERNATIONAL prices. And the Government adds a tax on top, just pure brilliance.
Capitalists demand “fiscal prudence” so instead of raising taxes on the rich, they squeeze more purchasing power out of the poor. Really stupid.
If rich people can’t pay taxes, they shouldn’t be investing.
Economists should be sent to Mars tbh
