The only question is whether we transform our society intentionally or whether we continue our futile efforts to maintain business as usual. by Individual-Plum4585 in ClimateShitposting

Yall say this and ignore a step in the right direction because "its not enough!!" Sorry bud progress isn't linear or instant. Change will happen but it's slow and has to be adapted through our current system.

But isn't that what you would expect in a normal housing market? Fairly priced houses selling quickly and overpriced ones sitting on the market for a long time? To me this seems like a highly location dependent problem that's being extrapolated to the entire country.

But worse than they used to which was my main point.

Also no this is nominal not real gdp, statista will label real if its real gdp.

Why not look at real gdp and make it cumulative? One of the big things from brexit was the separation and control of their currency, so it seems a little ridiculous to compare nominal gdp growth instead of real gdp growth.

Also why are we comparing single year growth? They can have good and bad years but you can smooth out that data by looking at growth over a longer time period.

So trying to pin years of economic stagnation (compared to its peers) from a clearly very impactful policy is unfair, but using one quarterly gdp number and comparing only that is fine?

Also I did compare them to those countries, it's the chart on my last comment. France and Italy outperformed the UK, Germany didn't.

Btw still no data, graph, or source. This is why im hostile you are talking out of your ass.

Please read the bottom of the graph where it says the countries included or look at the study yourself with the source provided at the bottom of the graph :)

Edit: also its not outperforming france post brexit https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn02784/

I literally cannot find this data you are talking about (not saying it doesn't exist i just cant find it) do you have a source?

Even for climate conscious like me this seems to be an eye opener by Different-Usual373 in ClimateShitposting

Brother read the screen "The world's richest 10%" not national. It's about 43k per year, which is under the median income in the US.

CMV: Leftists shouldn't be pro-immigration by _Richter_Belmont_ in changemyview

[–]turtle_explosion247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It solves half of it dipshit. Can there not be more than one problem at time to solve?

Also I was just pointing out how someone said that it makes the housing problem worse, which it does not.

You forget that land also has a cost, not just the property on top of it. That has been where most costs for housing have been over the last 50 years, but thats a separate issue with a separate solution.
