@BarneyFlames Good thing we don’t exist 200 years ago.
Cuisine changes over time, most cuisines were radically different in the 1820s.

@Nichola05210941 @tonyannett If you are going to use definitions from Marxist/communist literature, then it’s not surprising your definition is going to have a strong ideological “bias”.

I’m not disagreeing with you that the Marxist definition of democracy is grounded in Marxism. This is a non-discussion.

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@Nichola05210941 @tonyannett Lmao “in communist theory”

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@Nichola05210941 @tonyannett What’s wrong is your definition of democracy.

If you define democracy as all of the characteristics of socialism, then I guess democracy will happen to be socialist.

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@Nichola05210941 @tonyannett This is a pretty insane definition of democracy that’s neither used in academia or by the general public.

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@Nichola05210941 @tonyannett How?

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@SnowHimbo @RockChartrand He’s not talking about trade, he’s clearly talking about profits as the incentive that guides what/where/how/how much to produce.

@Nassreddin2002 So do you want the government to engage in fiscal expansion or not?

You have criticised the government for expanding the deficit. So what do you propose?

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

Leftists in Sweden will criticise the government for expanding the deficit, at the same time they say the government isn’t expanding the deficit enough.

Do you want expansionary fiscal policy or not?

[Max Jerneck @MaxJerneck]

Sweden avoided stagflation in the 1970s but with the current grossly incompetent right wing government (supported by the far-right) it just might get to experience it now.

@cat86g @PopovaProf Poland seems to be doing incredibly well. Am I misunderstanding your point?

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

“Rent control works when we push market prices down”

Incredible

[New Left EViews @NewLeftEViews]

Hello — rent controls work perfectly well when there’s active public housing construction. The UK had them forever while maintaining consistent housing stock growth. The shortage is due to epic market failures, not rent controls. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

@RepealTCPA1947 Is Sweden not one of the most democratic countries in the world?

@Chris196883 @HarmfulOpinions Did you think Muslims didn’t eat or drink for 30 days straight?

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@TaijaT03 @Rothmus @PaavoKuronen It was a social trend that followed the adoption of the “world wide web”.

What about it felt inorganic?

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@TaijaT03 @Rothmus @PaavoKuronen Well yes, that’s typically how schools function

@StackzValentino I think you’re missing the point. There is no “substitute good” for shelter as a category.

But there are substitutes to dwelling units between different providers in the private market and public alternatives. Furthermore there is substitutability in geography.

[Mixed @Mixed_Lib]

@StackzValentino Housing demand is absolutely not perfectly inelastic.

Inelasticity is not determined if you can “hop out” of it entirely. In a more competitive housing market with more alternatives, demand would be more elastic.
