@ash_craig because they (treasury, not pollies) looked at the number of genuinely low income people with meaningful capital gains... and oops, these don't exist 😆 (outside of some delusional examples of min wage workers going all in on nvidia) . very solid practical decision.
@TheKouk lol, did you see what happened in the covid easting cycle? or maybe it was "mass migration" that did it as well? you can teach a parrot to say demand and supply, but that would not make it an economist.
@Peter_Strachan@samstrades for starters, they need to plot real rents, not nominal. that would fix that graph. then you can do your demand and supply (which is never done on a trending nominal price series).
@Peter_Strachan@samstrades there is no link shown, the plot has one nominal time series in it. also if in your mind you are linking this nominal time series to some other series, you failed at a basic data analysis task. but don't worry, the idiots here will eat it up.
@samstrades They should raise, but it is not certain they will. The real estate lobby and the media ecosystem around it are too much for them to handle.
@Noahpinion@CKikila ML models useful for data analysis were developed by statisticians (e.g. Tibshirani) in the field of statistical learning. This seems like a budget driven decisions by ignorant principals or internal politics.
@michaeldweiss any new corruption charges by NABU will be seen as highly destabilising. agreement will be watered down and forgotten. taco boy is confirmed as a clown who has no leverage with either side.
@michaeldweiss amateur hour in dc: first radically reduce your leverage over Ukraine by stopping aid, then attempt to apply pressure at the exact wrong moment. Ze gives the speach "dont rock tbe boat, Americans are trying destroy us", strengthens his position at home...
