U.S. Dollar Is Being Systematically Destroyed, And We Are On A Path That Inevitably Leads To Hyperinflation

Cheney said "Deficits don't matter" in 2002 to then treasury secretary P. O'neill. You are mistaken.

It's obvious you know nothing about Keynes. But hey, prove me wrong! Cite exactly where Lord Keynes wrote anything saying "2-4% inflation is a Goldilocks economy". I'll wait. Originally Posted by lustylad

Your point is valid, but I wouldn't call it a "statistical fact". Better to say the empirical evidence suggests one's marginal propensity to consume tends to decline as income rises.




Sort of... but I'm not sure you get why. It's not because the stock market is making investors rich. It's because the market is a good harbinger of how the economy is likely to perform 3-6 months from now. The market is telling policy makers more stimulus may not be needed.



Not necessarily. Even if people use some of their stimulus money to pay down outstanding bills, that still frees up spending power for future consumption. Originally Posted by lustylad

Yeah-- its pretty apparent that you've never been truly poor. The rest I won't acknowledge because it requires me to reveal more personal information than I'm comfortable with doing on a SHMB.

It's comical to me how some people are so clueless about the actual economy when it it comes to the stock market.

I could walk in and manipulate your cash flows and manipulate your debt and you are good to go as far as your stock price. It would take me a month.

So many of you clowns are so clueless about how the market works and the effect it has on the overall economy as far as being vibrant.

The stock market does not represent the health of the economy. Get that through your fucking heads.

But, I'm still trying to get $100K so put or shut up and I'll even show you where I work and the degrees. Yeah, that's what I thought. Continue to talk all the shit you want.

Right now-- they are in no hurry to pass further stimulus packages because the stock market is doing fabulous. They don't care that there are people who will be getting evicted with the haste as soon as eviction moratoriums are lifted. In fact, that's an even bigger reason to avoid further stimulus-- those who normally blow it on consumer goods will likely spend it on bills instead-- in order to stay afloat. Which.... defeats the purpose of a stimulus. Originally Posted by Grace Preston

Lusty writes like an economist, probably because he is an economist. What he's saying doesn't look controversial to me -- if you distribute enough money to people so they can pay the bills they owe, and not get evicted from their houses or have their electricity off, and then some extra for "future consumption", then that will help them and provide a boost to the economy.

Show me that you have $100K for me, Tiny and I'll do just that. It's really not that hard. I kind of do it for a living. I'll even explain how I do it. It's all legal though but you pay me for the answer.

I'm sure the fuck not giving advice to a guy on a whore board who goes by the name of Tiny for free. You give me money for that knowledge. I paid to learn it, and people pay me to give it. You give me a $100K and I will tell you exactly how it is done. Time is money.

It's the audit trail I need help with.
