There is not such a thing as intellectual property property rights arise because physical resources are scarce and rivalrous one person's use excludes or diminishes another's. Conflicts over who controls a scarce resource require rules. ( first possession/homesteading, contract, or transfer) to avoid violence.
Ideas, expressions, or inventions are non scarce and non rivalrous. Copying a book, song, or invention does not deprive the originator of the original (unlike stealing a car).
ENGLAND: A Palestinian refugee from Gaza, who arrived claiming to be fleeing a ‘genocide’, was arrested for attempting to rape a 14-year-old girl.
He defends himself: “According to Sharia law, raping a non-Muslim girl is legal. I only follow Allah and Sharia law.”
Pure evil!
It is. Just lower the taxes. It will lower prices, make everything more affordable, and allow companies to invest even more into becoming better, more efficient, and more productive which will lower prices even further.'
"If no one has money to buy things, no companies get rich. The economy just crashes, which is extremely bad even if you are a greedy politician." Wrong. If demand goes down, companies are simply forced to become even better either by lowering prices or by improving quality. "
We need the money gained from the higher profit margins of companies to be pumped back into the economy in the form of universal high income.
Also wrong. Private companies will use that money far more efficiently and productively.
At some point, we would enter a deflationary spiral, which is actually a good thing because everything would get better and cheaper. People would need to work less and less for survival because there would be no inflation, and their savings would actually gain purchasing power instead of losing it.
Keynesians have neuro linked Elons brain.
Blink 3 times if you’re having a hard time with denominators.
Prices going down is the natural state of a free market.
You’re asking central planners to hide this.
When in history have the people who control the money printer, used it responsibly?
Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI.
AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.
Perfect example why central banks as we have them today shouldn’t exist. They open the door to crony capitalism - which is not real capitalism.
The temporary pain this strong shekel (~2.99 ILS per USD right now) is causing exporters is understandable.
But that pain is actually a good thing. It sends a clear market signal and forces businesses to become more innovative, efficient, and competitive.That’s exactly what real free markets do: businesses either adapt and get better, or they die and get replaced by stronger competition.The existence of a central bank gives companies an easy escape hatch.
Instead of improving, they can complain and lobby policymakers to rig the exchange rate in their favor through intervention. It’s understandable from the individual business owner’s point of view - nobody likes being forced to change.
But in the long run, letting genuine market signals work (without central bank distortion) is far better for all of us and leads to real prosperity.
blaming the Bank of Israel for not "hedging" the exchange rate
(buying dollars to weaken the shekel) isn't the solution.
The strong shekel is mostly a sign that Israel's economy is doing well If they start printing shekels to push the rate back up, it just causes more inflation and screws over everyone with savings in shekels.
You're running a business. Currency risk is part of it. Better to focus on raising your dollar prices, cutting costs, or finding ways to become more efficient instead of asking the central bank to rig the rate in your favor.
@jewboi223 لا، لم يسبق لإسرائيل أن هاجمت لبنان أولاً في النزاعات الرئيسية. كانت جميع عملياتها العسكرية (مثل 1978 و1982 و2006) ردوداً على هجمات سابقة انطلقت من الأراضي اللبنانية ضد إسرائيل، سواء من منظمة التحرير الفلسطينية أو حزب الله. التواريخ التاريخية تؤكد ذلك دائماً.
Eine Preiserhöhung am Tag: Diese Regel sollte von diesem Mittwoch an eigentlich den Benzinpreis drücken. Stattdessen ist er kräftig gestiegen. Was ist da los? https://t.co/vHWstdHgV8
Utterly retarded position by the AfD. Anti-immigration parties in the West need to stop doing this retarded Duginist Third Worldist foreign policy shit.
Oppose immigration and mass demographic displacement but stop being Third Worldist on foreign policy. It’s embarrassing
