The Iranian girls’ school was hit by a US tomahawk cruise missile. NPR has confirmed the footage.

I hate this timeline

It is my opinion is that economics as a field is a pseudoscience with more in common with astrology than it has in common with any other social science or any science at all.

If that hurts your feelings, it’s best not to engage with my posts on the topic.

💯 and it’s funny how nobody seems to understand that they are not understanding each other.

Like with inflation, economists/politicians say «inflation is coming down» and normal people hear «prices are coming down», even though all they’re saying is that «prices aren’t rising as fast as before».

I saw an economist joke that they had actually wanted to be a physicist, but the math was too hard 😄

Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.

Plumbing is real, macro economics as a field doesn’t deal with reality, it’s stories. It has more in common with religion or astrology.

A thousand percent more

Gah I want edit so bad

Som sagt: jeg mener at det er lite empiri som tyder på at mange sentrale økonomiske teorier har forankring i virkeligheten.

Så da sier vi at det er nok for i dag.

Vi er så fundamentalt uenige her at dette kommer vi ikke i land med.

Tror vi setter en strek her.

Det hjalp ikke men du sier at du tror det ville vært verre ellers? Det er ikke vitenskap, det er pseudo vitenskap.

Som er hele problemet med faget.

Importert inflasjon går ikke ned pga lokal økonomi, det henger ikke i hop.

Har ikke funket i alle fall 🤷🏻‍♀️
Sjekk grafene.
Hjelper ikke med god rente om valutaen er ustabil.

After Microsoft kicked out the ICC prosecutor I think we should recognize that this is a way the US can really hurt us.

Så nordmenn skal slite med å betale regninger for at Noen skal re-etablere en global verdensorden?

Prisene går ikke ned.
Men folk blir fattigere.

Som sagt: det empiriske grunnlaget for forholdet mellom inflasjon og styringsrente er utrolig svakt, og er helt på tur når inflasjonen er importert. Det den gjør er å stagnere økonomien som gjør at folk som nå trenger mer for å dekke basale behov, nå trenger enda mer.

Hvis man holder renta høy så er man fucked i neste runde. Alle andre satte ned renta, de kan sette opp og fortsatt være under der de var på det verste. Sverige satte ned lenge før oss og fikk mye bedre kontroll på inflasjon.
