Modern Monetary Theory: A Primer

Then why are we even imposing them? To stoke a rebellion against the government so a phony like Juan Guaido(a U.S. puppet)can make things more friendly for U.S. corporations. All for the most profit. Who cares if we overthrow a democratically elected government and plenty of people in another country are killed? Certainly not capitalist bootlickers like yourself.

Corporations use marketing and advertising to sell their garbage. No, they aren’t holding a gun to someone’s head making them buy their products. They make their garbage cheap and taste good by mixing the ingredients to make it palatable and even addicting to a degree. They actually employee people called food scientists to accomplish this. So you see it is not as black and white as you say.

Says the person who resides in Plato’s Allegory In The Cave.

No, but you can protest and not vote for these killers. And not try and normalize what they do by saying others do it as well.

So are you saying that the externalities are justified because these people employ others?

Nope.

Also,

What the hell are you throwing a word like externalities around for?

Remember: you’re the guy that knows dick about shit, let alone higher concepts of major industries.

I was born in this country and I’m allowed to point out it’s wrong doings. And furthermore I have every right to try and change it for the better. So screw off D-bag!

How many of those models have you experienced first-hand again? I am glad you can google from your mom’s basement.

Again, you are completely incorrect here. Single-payer leads to rationing of care and deaths.

I still have not seen this from you in any form on anything.

Your entire life has been drivel and losery.

Are you new to planet earth or something? Have you ever read any of history?

Oh, are corporations force feeding people at gun point?

Might makes right. It always has and always will. Again, welcome to planet Earth and humanity.

This is funny for someone who champions socialism, communism, marxism. Can you not see the irony?

Humans are part of the animal kingdom last I checked. Mouth-breathers? Dude, you are the one who still complains about being fired from a shitty ass job 20 years ago and blames everyone else for your pathetic lot in life.

I’ve only experienced 1 model and it’s the garbage one in this country that is lauded by indoctrinated soldiers like yourself.

Oh like in the U.S.

I always bring receipts but can’t force you to believe something that goes against your indoctrination. You have to do that yourself to some degree. But you refuse to do so as it would expose your life’s long faulty beliefs and that is just too painful for you. So you just live in the safety of your propaganda bubble. Much easier.

For once try and think!

Well at least you basically admit your immorality. I’ll give you that.

And you champion capitalism and the U.S. How many people do you think died as a result of those western wars in the mid-east?

Last I checked animals don’t have morals but humans do. But there are some people like yourself who are willing to suppress those morals. And I made great money for the job I did. Lived in a 2/2 by myself because I didn’t need a roommate, had my place professionally cleaned and owned my auto outright and I could continue but I don’t need to prove myself to you. Why would I? So when you lose that on the basis of a lie and have no recourse, it does stick with you.

Thank you for answering everything we need to know. You have zero experience in this like everything else in life except complaining about things you don’t understand and the ability to lose shitty jobs.

Where is care rationed in the US? Why are people coming here in droves? And coming for medical care?

No, the question was rhetorical. Nobody is forcing anyone to overeat shitty food and be obese. Being sedentary and overeating is a personal choice. If people stopped consuming shitty food like pigs - those companies would disappear. They are simply supplying what is being demanded. if there was no demand - they would cease to exist.

My immorality for understanding how the world and humanity works? I didn’t make the rules or create humanity and their flaws.

Not nearly as many as from socialism, communism, and marxism that you champion.

Oh my god you were a fully functioning adult with 1 CAR PAID OFF? You were doing so well. You did not make great money. Let us at least be honest.

“…for the job I did” is a good qualifier. Maybe so, but where in the median income for a man your age?

And I noticed you didn’t have a roommate. Now that is easily believable, Recluse.

A myth.

The people who don’t have any health insurance?

So why don’t you communicate to those companies that they are wasting a helluva a lot of money on marketing, advertising and on food scientists. Because they don’t work or do they?

No your immorality of giving it a pass.

Any proof?

For 1 person I did. I was not trapped in the consumer trap you are. Trying to satisfy a desire that can not be satisfied. Please be honest with yourself. I know it’s embarrassing to be a slave to material things while at the same time pretending to be moral. I’m sure your parents are proud.

At that time, I made about 75k. Not bad for a 30-something bartender at a members club.

I am surprised that high horse your riding doesn’t topple over.

This explains why this laughable thread continues. You support a brain dead economic view only supported by people without a penny of in AUM because in your 30s the best you could do is pour deinks in a glass. Truly, this explains everything.

You have zero power to do that because you are poor and uneducated with zero standing in life.

But, keep telling yourself delusions.

They are a business. Of course they are going to market to their clientele. Did the liquor manufacturers of liquor your poured market? Why would you sell and support the structure of capitalist companies selling poison? But you made “great” money right?

I never concern myself with the opinions of sheep or peasants.

WW1? WW2? North Korea? China? I mean it isn’t hard to see the proof there.

That is your opinion and I see you set the bar near the ground.

Again, I am not a slave to anything, but maybe oxygen, food, and water. I have lived with next to nothing and I was still happy. Wealth is a means to an end. You could take it all away today and I would just get back to work and accrue it again.

Are your parents proud? Maybe stop projecting.

What is really embarrassing is being passed middle aged as a man and being such a complete loser that blames everything around him and the society that has allowed him to live a life not worthy of his contribution.

How is your wife? Are your kids proud of you? Oh wait…

So if you call out something that is immoral you are riding on a high horse? Got it.

And you don’t support anything unless you can make profit from it.

What is ethical in this system?

And of course you miss the point. Is marketing all that was done to sell their garbage products?

Wow another learned response!

That is not proof.

As a 30-something I was well above the median range for a single person. Now I do even better w/o having a boss and don’t have to be anywhere at or for a specified time. And it would be so nice if your employees did the same.

You claim to be morally superior to all of us “rubes” and “mouth-breathers” and “right-wing nuts” (among other things you have called a wide range of posters here). You claim to know “a better way”. You want people to follow your ideas with no proof and plenty of evidence to the contrary.

You’re like a cult leader without the charismatic part. The L. Ron. Hubbard of your mom’s basement.

That’s your best response for working a job a chimp could do; nobody pays you to make economic forecasts let alone think, so you yet again try to appeal to emotion.

I find it emotionally profitable to donate to charity; I’d bet the deed to my primary residence I donate more of my pretax income to charity than you, too.
