What economic school of thought has made inflation the subject of consideration more so than MMT?
I could care less that some people are doing better than me. Whatever that means.
Is this what you are talking about?
You know, they are JUST doing better. They don’t buy off politicians to rig the system in their favor to consolidate power and profit. Nah, that just doesn’t happen.
Did I use the word terrorist? No, you used it. I just agreed with your statement. You see I can split hairs in a debate just like everyone on here.
You are a part of the culpability of the deaths of innocent people killed by the aircraft you work on. Are you not aware of the deaths of innocents by the military? Yes, these are not personal decisions made by you but by politicians, however you are working on the machinery used to these ends. You can always quit your job and go somewhere else. You’ve stated plenty of times of the options open to you.
Not everything is opinion on here. The U.S. has the most expensive “healthcare” system in the world IS NOT an opinion. The U.S. is involved in more military excursions than any other country in the world IS NOT an opinion.
What personal attack are you speaking of?
First you could get rid of Citizens United.
And just because it may be extremely difficult to do doesn’t mean it should just be accepted.
Where would anybody/anything be if that defeatist attitude would become the primary mode of day to day function?
You’re a fucking dumbass. I asked if you believed they are terrorists. You said yes. That is literally calling them terrorists.
But I am not surprised since you can’t comprehend anything your read or interpret data/math correctly
And by extension of your logic this equates me to a terrorist too.Your shitty logic and reasoning skills on display yet again.
Are you not aware of the many deaths caused by actual terrorists? We have already disproven the shitty “data” you quoted in other threads claiming the US military is responsible for more deaths than it actually is.
Also - I have no culpability nor any qualms about what I do.
I can (I got a job offer yesterday in fact), but I actually like my job and have no reason to leave. You can’t even comprehend the complexity of what I work on, let alone the work these things actually do. The work I do actually matters (unlike yours). And I have many stories about veterans who have thanked me for working on products that have saved their lives (they shouldn’t be thanking me, they do the hard work, but I am happy to know I played a small part in getting them home).
Glad to know you don’t actually give a shit about homeless people, many of whom are veterans (or literally terrorists in your fucked up/childish mind).
This happens everywhere and has happened at all times through history - It’s part of human greed and lust for power.
Being the subject of consideration does not make the solution idea worthwhile or correct.
No, you can’t keep track of a conversation anymore than you can hold down a bar tending job.
make the government bigger - that will definitely lead to more freedom. 
Key word: activist. A person with an agenda…
I have never met someone as mind-numbingly stupid and dense as you. Be glad you live in the US. Any other place you would be in the lowest economic tier due to lack of both ability and intelligence. Go check out the slums of Mumbai, or even closer to home the abject poverty in Haiti and then tell me you have it bad.
Nope. You lack the ability to comprehend what you read(this is likely why you never attempt to explain MMT, etc. in your own words). “The system” should be neutered. I hate the system that offers incentive to buy it; you love and want to expand it: You want a single entity to fully control the economy.

I agree with this and have said this multiple times.
In our current political climate - impossible is the word you are looking for.

It was in reference to the railroad unions.
You know. Unions. Something you are highly passionate with no experience to speak. You know. You’re the guy who didn’t know the difference between “open shop” and “closed shop.”
Being the recluse that you are, do you know anyone who works (or worked) in the brotherhood?
You asked that I apologize to the railroad union employees for insulting them. I made a public apology to the railroad union workers to the same audience that I made the accusation. I asked you to apologize for the personal insult you made to me. You refused. Hence, you will be known to me until the day you die as the Pencil Neck Recluse.
And congratulations on holding the attention of the few of us you elect to converse with you for over 2,250 posts in this thread alone. I am sure in the gym atmosphere you would be a nobody that no one paid any attention. I suppose it could be said that you have reached the pinnacle of your potential. Not many of us can honestly say that we “have arrived.”
Glad you didn’t have any decision making responsibilities when we went to the moon. Otherwise it never would have happened. Or emancipation, etc. I see you are still hanging on to a defeatist mind set.
Yep, you do. Without the ability to come to terms with your delusional political philosophy, you must live in a fantasy world.
And you want non-electable corporations to control the economy.
Most people can’t explain how email works but use it daily w/o the knowledge of the technicalities of the technology.
Or are you surprised that I’m arguing like most on here?
Of course you don’t. You couldn’t handle ANY responsibility for the things you work on and what they’re used for. And this you know OR does acting stupid about it make you sleep at night?
You like working on machine’s of war? And knowing how the U.S. will use them?
Yes it matters as it is used in killing people. So yeah, it matters!
Just like you played a small part in killing people in undeclared war.
And where did I imply this?
Yes and that makes it okay. We should just accept it. No point in trying to fight it.
MMT takes inflation more seriously than other economic schools of thought.
Or make those benevolent corporations bigger as that will bring more freedom. Corporations that claim to hate big government only hate them if they do things for the public, if they(corporations) get the government to do things that benefit them, then they love government. After corporations bad mouth the government on stupid ass shows like Hannity and Morning Joe, they crawl with their hands out begging for bailouts when things don’t go their way.
Try holding a conversation with yourself sometime.
I love how jerkoffs on here have to compare the U.S. economic life with other countries instead of mentioning the decline of upward mobility in this country. So whatever you do, don’t compare life in this country to previous generations otherwise you might see it’s downward trajectory.
Please tell me more, since you know and are involved so much in the political climate currently.
Even my level of wealth which is EONS above yours couldn’t even begin to make a dent or a difference.
So please, tell us more with your vast experience dealing with government and the political structure.
How many billionaires do you know or have met?
How many people with powerful political connections do you know?
I know it is zero. So shut the fuck up.
And what was the personal insult?
My brother worked for the UAW and now Ironworkers.
And who really cares?
I am in the more current generation and I disagree with you.
The ability to move up in this country far exceeds anywhere else.

No, I mean what I said like usual. No one on here “argues” like you (if that’s what you want to call it).
Spoiler alert: you aren’t winning the argument.
Fuck off.
I handle the responsibility just fine. You would like me to have an issue with it because that makes your pea brain feel better.
Not everyone is you (nor would anyone want to be).
To defend the country? Yes
Again, fuck right off
Fuck off.
I dare you to meet some of these soldiers and tell all this to their face.I am sure they will take kindly to your assessment of the crap they went though. I’ll be sure to invite all my friends with purple hearts to the meeting.
Or hell, tell it to my face in person.
You claimed to care about the 500,000+ homeless people in previous post. Yet many of those are veterans - you can’t simultaneously care about there well being and call them terrorist.
Holy fuck.
You truly are on level all to yourself. When you are universally hated - the problem is you.
Dumbass.
Yeah, this exists. In the current economic climate it exists in any country someone from the “West” would want to live in. Nature of the beast of human existence.
All you need is hopes and dreams…
He can’t. It’s the curse of the mind-numbingly stupid.

I don’t recall precisely. I have read the multitude of insults you throw out here. It was one of those. It isn’t too memorable, because you are not memorable.
And you are a recluse to him too. Imagine that.
It speaks to your significance on this forum.
Man, I knew it wouldn’t take long before your self-aggrandizing.
Who cares?
I know Dick Gephardt ad his wife as they were members of the private club I worked for.
What? Have a long hard talk with yourself. It is your attitude that espouses the defeatist mindset.
And as usual, the only thing you can think of is money.
And what about the insults directed at me?
Oh no, did I touch a nerve?
And what the U.S. does is defensive? Bwahahaha…
I don’t have to because they are aware of how they are being used. At least the ones that can face the deception and aftermath of what they are told to do.
Unfortunately veterans are used by the military to do the dirty work and sometimes being left out to dry by the same organization. Despicable.
And who am I hated by? The morons on here. I gladly welcome their hatred as I wouldn’t want to be on their side in the majority of the arguments.
So are you saying it’s the current economic climate that is the cause.
It certainly is better than just accepting.
