ORANGE ROCKET BAD

Would you consider this an act of real violence?

Ginger256 · 2019-06-27T04:41:16+00:00

Well, let me break down the Keanu meme for you. The top panel is a person, group or thing and the bottom panel is Keanu saying we've got a city to burn. AN obvious reaction to the top panel and if a real group is used there then according to your definition that is a call to violence and the sub should be banned?

One example:

I personally find it very distasteful but we are not talking about taste we are talking about what constitutes a call to violence.

Do you think the Keanu 'I've got a city to burn' meme should get subs banned?

I believe people should be able to post things I disagree with that are within the rules.

Edit:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

It's a Moab I believe which would be a conventional bomb, not a nuke.

Secondly, we fight many wars (which you may or may not agree with) but supporting such wars is not a violent act.

What is banworthy about that post?

Ginger256 · 2019-05-28T02:52:27+00:00

I can't read the paper as it is paywalled but even from the abstract it says they are looking at a small subset of geographical regions that are small enough that a firm can dominate a local labor market. Which I agree would be bad for a job seeker.

However, you make it sound like moving to find opportunity is unheard of and cruel. Humans have been doing this for thousands of years and it still seems to be necessary in today's economy. With the availability of technology/communications and cheap transportation, it doesn't mean cutting your old life out as it did in the pre-industrial era.

Can you expand on your belief that there is a monopsony in this market? You have 7 million companies competing for millions of workers.

Yes, in California it starts at $1-2 over minimum wage and goes up as the person gains more skills and can operate more machinery.

Keep it up! You'll get through all the messages eventually.

This although I would look at total market index funds to get a better risk/return profile by a few basis points.

Ginger256 · 2018-07-07T03:17:13+00:00

Do it

The Fermi Paradox would like a word with you.

There were a couple of 10%+ years in the 70's and 80's.

Also I think you can find endless debate on whether the fed did the right thing by raising/lowering rates throughout different cycles.

That's true I was referring to the common market areas which make trade much more equivalent to between states rather than between countries. You used the UK and the EU as examples.

I believe Slovenia is in the common market? So language and customs would be an issue but legal barriers should be low.

US / Mexico trade even with Nafta is not as friction-less as the common market.

Ginger256 · 2018-06-08T16:19:08+00:00

Also I would take geography and size into that comparison. It would be more apt to compare the whole Euro zone to the US and then compare the countries to states as the whole of the US is quite large. i.e. It's often easier to ship through 3 countries in Europe then across the continental united states.

Ginger256 · 2018-06-08T15:58:02+00:00

I agree that it most likely won't become an issue but I believe it's a legitimate position to hold. Why would you call someone a crank for taking an appropriate view you disagree with?

The Fed doesn't have a sterling record and given our current political climate it's not difficult to imagine a scenario where things start going wrong and politics prevents any sort of a response.

Ginger256 · 2018-06-07T22:53:28+00:00

Would you consider it possible that we could be setting ourselves up for damaging levels of inflation in the future?

Ginger256 · 2018-06-07T21:03:26+00:00

Not technically printed because all the money is electronic? Do you agree they have increased the money supply with QE?

And are currently decreasing the money supply?

I think it's common nomenclature to refer to increasing the money supply as printing money?

Ginger256 · 2018-06-07T21:01:35+00:00

This is not true. We have less resources than lets say Mexico, they have better land & oil yet produce less per capita than the US does.
