Hello
From the economy and balances the money supply. Controlling inflation.
The only other purpose taxation has is by directing the economy by encouraging spending or dissuading spending.
If we was to pay for anything we can.
Neoliberal economics is based on a lie. Stop buying into it.
There is no black hole. The government (we) can afford to pay for any project we want.
We donβt borrow money or need taxes to pay for anything.
The only limiting factor on money creation is resources.
The government isnβt a household.
Taxes (and buying bonds) takes money from the economy
Achievement unlocked.
Just plugged a USB2 in first time!
And I n the dark!
What witchcraft is this?
New hat just dropped.
They need them alive so they can abuse them.
I doubt guilt figures very highly, if at all.
If prosperity comes from cooperation, reciprocity, and moralityβ¦why do economists still optimize for greed?
@nickhanauer.bsky.social calls out the broken assumptions in mainstream economics.
ATTN: If youβre one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). Iβll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. ππ»

But they arenβt directly targeting monied interests Dale. You should know this by now.
Not so much. But ok.
You think you have that long? Thatβs so cute.
But it got us publicising reform. Job done.
Shame we donβt publicise the Greens as much.
Buying shares isnβt investing. Itβs gambling.
If she wants investment legislate a wealth tax and invest that in the country.
Not that she needs tax money to do that. The government(we) can just do it anyway.
Itβs been a bit rainy.
Publicly fund all political parties
Audit the MPs
Rolling elections
And make recalling MPs easier and more accessible.
TRICKle down
Trickle down did exactly what its creators and promoters wanted it to do.
Same as βif you work hard, you to can succeedβ, they point to a hand full example of people who lucked out in a sea of failed effort. And say βIf they can do it. So can youβ
We could all βDo itβ if the system wanted us to.
Should have punched him in the nuts
I would be more worried about being so hard on the BBC that we eventually call for its break up. Then all you will have is media bought and paid for by billionaires. And do you honestly think that will be better.
Honestly. Analyse those media companies and get those broken up first.
I hope all is well?
Thereβs only one way out of this now. And a lot of Americans are going to have to kill a lot of other Americans.
Either the military do it. Or the people do it. Either way is terrible.
And the funny thing is there is no financial fallout from this. The governments finances bear no resemblance to a home budget. They and by extension we. Can afford to pay for and do anything we want to.
Oh I donβt know. He does a run down of the pop top ten and heβs usually pretty objective about them and the production values of most of them. He might not like the song but heβs pretty fair in his assessments so of them
I couldnβt agree more. But they can do both. Itβs not either or.
Then pay them a flat maintenance fee and disconnect them from the gas prices. When they arenβt producing power they still get paid.
