It's always ""funny"" when economist say shit like "deflation would be bad for the economy" "we cannot solve it" and ignore the fucking huge reason behind it that causes it. Like fucking billionaires hording all the wealth while average people cant afford to live... But god forbid, it's unimaginable to have a little bit of wealth re-distribution so average people live better and spend more...

Economy is just another term for billionaires private net worth at this point. We should not care about it, only issue is, they privatize winning and socialize losing, so they make it everyone's problem if they gamble and lose...

Fuck this word, fuck the Epstein class...

Right? Like all this thread has taught me is that economists are idiots, and that all their theory is just excuses to keep fucking poor people.

This is the fault of politicians, not economists. Many economists would agree that wealth redistribution is needed for a healthy economy.

Roosevelt's Square Deal was one of the best things to ever happen to this country and it needs to happen again in a massive way.
