@OutLikeA_Lamb @BlackDumpling @DrunkRepub What does "wages were shit back then" even mean? The literal dollar amount is irrelevant. It's what you could buy with it. And the data shows that the avg house was 3.8 times the avg yearly salary. Now its 7x. That is LITERALLY the opposite of "wages were shit back then".

@SidPolitics @haugejostein True. And the Great Depression was a doing of the financial manipulators in the US market. Chinas economy is not a stock jockey economy so what's your point?

@songpinganq @haugejostein What are you talking about? Those dont look homeless at all. They look like employees on a break or citizens enjoying some public space

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@confusedwv @haugejostein Why are you making sweeping universal statements about China and Chinese people?

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@KellMorrHK @haugejostein And what do the numbers look like in 2026?

@ThugLifeSproul Dirty commies radiowaving communist propaganda into your kids brain from Havana. Trump 2028!

@XFreeze It's more accurate to say that he is selling science fiction (through stocks in his companies) than "he is literally turning science fiction into reality".

@jeremykauffman @MattWalshBlog Therefore there is no logical connection between your premise and your conclusion. "Food cannot be unaffordable because food prices did not rise faster than wages" is a logically invalid inference. Why? Because other mandatory costs made the fixed amount of food unaffordable.

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@jeremykauffman @MattWalshBlog Jeremy when the fixed costs of housing and health insurance are increasing much more rapidly than wages, that leaves less money for other inelastic costs like food. So even if food inflation isnt outpacing wages, there is less money to buy the same food with.

@cliffpacker1 @LukewSavage Im telling you, as someone who doesnt like Elon, sharing a clip from 2020 of him dancing poorly and having fun in front of the cameras and his employees at a company event, does not bolster your criticism of him. It makes the hate seem superficial and petty.

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@JoelWBerry Ah the old motte-and-bailey of treating "national debt" and "entitlements" as one monolithic unit. Yes, you're a victim of your own high intellect and your extremely sophisticated arguments that everyone hates you for Joel... keep telling yourself that when you lose in november.

@AzPetrich Im Danish and this is fake news. Not only is it not passed yet, there are no general copyright protections of a persons face, voice or body. Only protections against deepfakes specifically. So training on your face, voice or body for an AI model is not covered in any way.

@GabeGuidarini Too late.

@NeilShenvi Wow it must be so nice to be you and just make up the other sides arguments, makes it real easy to always win any argument. You're such a genius debater Neil. Why didnt anything think of that and give it a name some two thousand years ago...

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@MmisterNobody Neoliberal economics.

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@vanguardjames95 @MattWalshBlog What happens when the Big Mac Purchasing Power stays constant and the price of housing, education and energy skyrockets. You drooling retard.

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@marcioseverus @seanmdav LOL so gen Z and millenials didnt take thousands of hours of schooling and book reading and training? The data unequivocally states that gen Z and millenials are FAR MORE EDUCATED than prior generations. And yet they STILL cant afford life. That's the problem, genius.

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@PaulCoe88545230 @marcioseverus @seanmdav It doesnt matter how much data on cost of living and wealth inequality and working hours you show them. Fox News said "advocado toast" one time and that's all that matters to them. Introspection is uncomfortable when it shows you had it easy by comparison and you arent a genius.

@nobleheartopenI @Jtodd601 It cant ALWAYS be the asset holders and the billionaires. That creates the dysfunction we have now and its going to get a lot worse unless government policies are redirected towards other groups for a while (multiple decades, like how the status quo has endured decades)

[Brombærkrat @brombaerkrat]

@nobleheartopenI @Jtodd601 The ugly truth is the monetary policy, tax policy, industrial policy, literally any policy, always benefits some at the expense of others and that there is no free market where no one is systemically advantaged over others. Therefore the best you can do is change who benefits.
