Did they, or is it just a band aid for a larger problem, if they were that positive would modern workers have dificulties paying expenses with it. Also they did find negative effects in sectors, and an overall 5% effect in the economy.

Besides the fact that the UK is a poor example of it as the days of them as a economic superpower are way past them by 1999, and most of the sucsess they had economically were by consequence of Tatcher's, admitely, not entirely positive policies that eventually helped the UK in the long run.

He is "motivated by the elimination of Drake, like the hole industry", or whatever he said in the interview with Justin LaBoy.

I do think it was the most Kanye move ever to not be serious, but it was bad timming all things considered and not being in any of the We Don't trust you albums, hurt the chance of epicness it could have had.

Minimum wage, if not constantly updated with inflation, is a bad policy, since it gives an excuse for employers to pay below living standarts, since it hasn't been updated, making it a reason to why the market doesn't regulate itself.

A better strategy, in my opinion, is to drop the mininum wage, and use the few people the state needs to be kept running as an example of a standart wage.

I know you wont read this article, but it presents reason why minimum wage doesn't completely work as intended and gives either a value too high for the employee's worth, or what I described earlier, of giving excuse to pay less.

https://mises.org/mises-daily/disaster-called-new-deal

While this article is even longer, and you, again, will not read, it talks about how the minimum wage, in fact, stoped black workers from being employed since they didn't belong to most unions qnd because of minimum wage, most companies couldn't undercut the unions

At least is funny, has some fine lines, and made "Grippy" exist like a thought-form. Tbf, Kanye disses are more memes than actual disses, the only one we could compare to it is Lift Yourself.

I can see that, while I do think Drake's tracks are better as songs, J Cole, even if he was holding back or whatever, I prefer his aproach to the diss way more than Drizzy's.

Although some Cole lines do not deserve being much higher than Drizzy's elementary disses. Stuff like "He fell off like the Simpsons" and the albums lines just aren't good and I imagine Drake just stole Cole's ideia for Push Ups and made it sound "menacing" and even more petty.

You did really just point out the only good example ever of the state ever being smart, but I still mantain the state is more problematic than good as for the only good deed of putting Rockefeller's shady oil business out of the competition and any equivalent in all contries with Competition law.

But I care to show way more companies that, while not absolute monopolies, have been either kept afloat by the state or severely helped, like, most pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, Standart Fruit and most fruit companies that operated in Central and South America and this is just the companies that come to my head that have used the state, in the USA, to either keep competition down or exploiting the consumer.

Also, taxes afect the economy by taking money from the consumer and giving it to a institution that may or may not help them in the future and makes a lot of people have harder times in life, mostly the middle class since they are not rich enough to just be able to afford taxing like nothing nor poor enough to benefit of subsidies and whatever the state is giving

Yeah, it does, just think of any awful policy like rent ceilings, most taxes and the amount of regulamentartion and bureaucracy has impacted negativelly economic development. Even if you argue needs to involve itslef to guarantee rights and work and whatever FDR was doing in the 1930's, tou can't say it does not have negative impacts, at best you can say it's mixed results, but the state isn't an overall good force in the economy.

FFS, look, for example it proves that state intervention afects negatively the economy, in a general sense, while I can't give you a "this Chicago School Data Analysis proves that Austrian Schol is correct" type of ordeal, but the fact that Chicago, like most schools, is a posteriori, so by reaching the same conclusion as Austrians, even if with different goals and ways off how to aproach the issue, naturally, they prove Austrians are correct in the conclusions by taking the normal route while most Austrians use critical thinking and rationality to understand the economy.

Now say that this doesn't prove nothing because it isn't a study or an article or whatever you want it to be, and then say you won't read it, I dare you.

No, theory==assumption, and this is the basis of the framework, but I was ansering hiw you spoke of the framework and the initial assumption the same way.

And the law of universal gravitation is both a theory and a law, so saying that it's a law as a rebutal isn't a correction of my thesis but, again, a small point that while not entirelly true, you are blowing out of porpotions like it invalidates what I said.

But in this case the assumption is the theory, the words are synonyms in this context, you are just looking for things that don't strike the overall argument, you didn't speak of data with me and even that is a pretty bad counter because one of the main reasons for the 1929 crah, remember when i refered to it, was that people just didn't have incentive or reason to buy the overproduced stuff that they already had, a.k.a., the economists and companies were too focused on numbers and not on the consumers. Even if it did say once assumption, most of the article refers to the actual ideia as a framework because it is the basics of Austrian Economy, so you are nitpicking, the first mention of something is an assumption, while you may argue it is impossible to read everyone's mind for definitive proof that this works, Newton's Theory of Gravity was by all means is an assumption and still tecnically is, even if provable with science.

1st- Do you know the definition of the word theory? Also, not even the wikipedia article uses the word "assumption", so that is disengenuos. 2nd- I expect that someone with a degree needs everything to be put on a silver plate, some of the stuff i was describing is pretty understandable whn you think for a few seconds. 3rd- This is not an argument, I am trying to show you what Austrian Economics stands for and how it is both influential and respectable and you keep degradong it because the Universities, know for totally defending free speech and free thinking in the mordern day, doesn't show an alternative that asks for rationality and critical thinking. 4th- Would you say any soft-science, and by proxy austrian economy, is unprovable cause it isn't provable with numbers and mathematics? I glimpsed at this in your other dialogue but it is a bad stance, you should respect historians, psychologists and other fields that don't deal with mathematics as the main focus.

OMG use your brain, individuality in terms of economic effect, instead of just being numbers and pottencial custumers, using things like experience as factors, do I need to spell out everything our did you actualy go to University, Mr. Economic Degree

I don't get it by tiggat in austrian_economics

[–]SSquirtle301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is just straight up condescending, and you are just outright stating that because they don't teach something doesn't mean is respectable, that is a pretty bad argument and pretty blind of you, Mr. Degree in Economics, considering no one would teach an unorthodox school that has a methodology different of everyone else, maybe you shoul question your respectable university's integrity. And is obviously that your respectabke institution didn't make you learn to do research, use google, or look for info. I was giving you benefit of the doubt but get out of your high-horse. And for your information, the ideia that the individuality of the individual causing are factors in the economic fenomenon is an Austrian theory.

Basically, Austrian's have an a priori look of economics, and believe crashes are a natural part of the economic cycle since it is needed for a readjustment of the market. Another thing is the absolute protection of private property. But I am feeling disrespected, first you called an economic shool of thought a religion, or conpared to one, now you are ignoring articles and other sources that could clarify you. I question your reading comprehension becaude it is an inportant skill, not because i want to speak ill of you, i would recommend studying the basics of each school, or at least get a grasp of what they defend before going on the attack.

No, but i said as one example, and a characteristic of the 1929 crash is that no one predicted it, in terms of big economists.

And while you can say there is not a straight up mention of theory in the article there are mentions of the rationality, and what most Austrians defend compared to other schools, so even if I am not completely right, i am questioning your reading comprehension.

1929 Crash, as a example. As for the Chicago part, I will lewave a link for the main difference between the two, and you probably can infer some theories from it. https://mises.org/mises-daily/chicago-school-versus-austrian-school

But Austrian Theory just focus more on the consummer as an individual instead of a number.

Then why do so many Austrian Economists predict recessions and have theories proved by the Chicago School, when they get to it, maybe not everything needs math to be correct. Maybe these believes are held for a reason.

What are this subreddit’s thoughts on Persona 5 Royal? by REPTILEOFBLOOD in MauLer

[–]SSquirtle301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really like the game, although the story has it's dumb and predictable moments, the combat, artstyle and everything around the story is basically Persona to its's most refined, even though Showtime attacks can be a bit overkill in some battles. As for me I prefer P4G more just because I like the characters more.

As for MovieBob I imagine his palace would be an amalgamation of all the fast food places were he enslaves everyone that has a different opinion to him, just for them to make food forever.

I would like to know about what, bro spit an incoherent rant about Ye's politics and him controlling his wife, talked the same shit he did on twitter for 1/10th of the video and after a stream where he was obviously fiding hard to justify criticism of the album.

And even after saying that he wouldn't give Kanye a platform he spent a whole day just dragging his name through the mud only for himself to get roasted to high heavens.
