    dumbest Nobel price winner

    It bears repeating that there is no Nobel Prize for economics. It's a fake prize that they added after the fact to add credibility to a fake science.

      The "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel" is awarded by the same committee as the actual Nobel Prizes though, so it's close.

      But yeah, Nobel explicitly said not to have a prize in economics.

        The prize is real insofar as they award a prize, but it’s a little like if Netflix paid the Motion Picture Academy to award an Oscar for Best Streaming Service.

        Engels and Marx take turns every year being the award announcer and receiving the award, so they just end up passing the same award back and forth

      That's what theyve started to call the plebeian dissatisfaction with the state of our booming economy. We're not struggling, we just have struggling vibes.

    When these fuckers are strung up and guillotined by the people, we must be sure to tell them that they're just imagining the people's revolution and if they look at the data, there's actually no revolution at all and they should stop whining and complaining.

    Everyone can afford everything they want if you exclude all of the things they can't afford. I don't know what's so hard for you tankies to understand about that.

    All the tent neighborhoods downtown that are 5 times bigger than I've ever seen them before are just a vibe

    Vibe check?

    Nope, not over. Make the corporate leeches pay back what they've siphoned off since 2019 and we'll check again, Paul.

        Really good point. The hostile takeover nonsense really ruined the last chance that liberal market economics had to not be complete dogshit.

    Are liberals doing anything to combat the perception of so called nonexistent recession? Because it seems like their tactic is to do nothing to show the voters that they’re wrong other than scolding and mocking them.

      It is because innate https anywhere on Firefox. You can open archive.is with Edge or Safari equivalent, they (archive.is/today) don't load ads. It is better than linking directly to a paywalled NYT
