Low inflation might be the first step towards deflation. Many economists would argue that deflation is a worse situation for the economy because it leads to a sharp drop of consumption and therefore a huge recession follows?

Short for Justin George.

Which is two first names.

But his middle name Side.

So his name is Justin Side George which is also where he finishes. Because his spouse took on his name, and is also George.

My understanding of Catholicism is that if you name your kid Saint [Something] they grow up to be pretty awesome. But then there's the, you know, martyrdom.

u/Euphoric-Skirt7649 6h ago

Yeah, but if you’re doing Catholicism right, being worthy of martyrdom is basically the goal.
