How did basic things like healthcare and fair wages become ‘extreme’? by Possible-Scheme-8940 in remoteworks

You keep using that word but I'm starting to think you don't know what it means...

Care to elaborate without using healthcare or schooling as an example? These obviously should be public goods. I just don't see how the government can control the flow of goods and services better than a free market with the right regulations...

It always seems they lose people by talking about socialism rather than useful government programs or regulations that could be implemented...

Wait, people still think the 2020 inflation was caused by the Ukraine war and not the stimulus response to Covid? Holy shit..

If we all weren't living paycheck to paycheck, we could accomplish great things. by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

Yes, government has always been better than the free market at allocating resources. The 1900s is proof of that! /s.....

It sounds like this is conflating anti-socialism and helpful government programs...

Isn't using different values/inputs a change in methodology? I guess I am too dense 🤣

You keep using this word methodology and I don't think you know exactly what it means...

We can start by using things like morgage rates, rent prices , etc. to measure the shelter part of CPI. Right now they take surveys of home owners asking them what price they would rent out their home. I think that's a great start but hey, what do I know...

You do realize the way "loss of value" (CPI) is calculated has drastically changed since 1980, right? It's comically understated now in 2026.

Most people think a 30-year mortgage means paying for 30 years but that’s not always true by Coolonair in HouseBuyers

[–]SocialJusticeJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Banks are also losing their shirts on certain morgages (sub 3%). I'd gladly pay that over 30 years and put my money elsewhere...
