@K_Niemietz In this article, they talk about the ‘fertile ground’ for pro-growth reform - but I don’t really agree, I think the UK politics is thoroughly captured by the pensioners who hate growth and progress, they just want unlimited pension money and don’t really care about anything else

@jogehrs @actsmaniac I thought his point was more about how prices are essentially signals to producers and consumers to adjust their production/consumption based on changing conditions without anyone in particular needing to know everything nor create any wide-reaching plans.

@actsmaniac No disagreement but that's basically Hayek's main idea when he talks about prices, right?

underrated explanation why market economies work better than planned economies. It's very easy to calculate how expensive it is to buy something. It's very difficult to calculate how much it costs to make something.

@cremieuxrecueil I chose 90% for all of them because I have very little faith in the average person’s financial decision making abilities.

No cheating! I'm going to ask you about five categories of spending and you're going to guess the modal share of purchases that consumers do in that category with a credit card. Pick the closest number. First up: restaurant purchases.

Vance blames all Hungary's economic problems on foreign interference (Brussels and Zelensky, not Orban's 16 year looting binge).

@devarbol I think leftists tend to hold ‘noble savage’ views of the lower classes or believe that they’re simply being manipulated into it.

@devarbol It’s the reason why people/media use the term to describe manosphere people in general as that - because they’re misogynists

@devarbol Its because the term incel has basically devolved into a synonym for ‘misogynist’ with the connotation of being a particularly pathetic one - it’s not really about them being lonely socially awkward people

@NY_LBSS @GreenPlusAnE They are not lying - it was obvious from the start, the pensioners are their voter base to a greater extent than other parties

@GreenPlusAnE Pray to god they are just lying. They have FAR more power when in control than our system gives. So they could change it and then ride the storm out for years.

@CoKeynesian This is a perfectly normal and reasonable position if you live in Europe - Russia/USSR is right in our backyard, China is a distant country we trade with

@actsmaniac It’s because Austrians like Rothbard/Hoppe are/were into curating a coalition with far-rightists and those guys are really into banker-type conspiracies/antisemitism

I have no idea why Austrian economists give themselves psychoses over central banks and fiat money when the world is full of rent controls you can get mad at instead

@atlanticesque On the point about employee payouts for their benefits - it’s actually pretty crazy - like I just started a job as a contractor and as a result make 50+% more for a pretty similar job to my previous - now that I don’t get the benefits
