how does it make less sense he's an economics major and in any case people can vote however the fuck they want dude

you're like one of those retarded sanders supporters who were crying during the primaries about how those DAMN UPPITY BLACKS voted overwhelmingly for clinton i.e. the wrong way

by **Zilchexo** December 31st 2016, 1:21 pm

ror every demographic under 45 went sanders, blacks are just even more age-skewed voters than most

obviously he can vote however he wants i can just call him a cvck for it

the first thing they should teach you in advanced macro is that austrian economics and anything else neoclassical is crazy fucking stupid but a lot of macro professors are actually total reactionaries so that doesn't always happen. really though with any critical thinking at all you should be able to deduce that supply side economics of any kind is horrible and stupid and degrowth is the solution to most of the problems we face

nigga do you expect me to read "all that shit" by you

by **salty** December 31st 2016, 1:24 pm

if youre actually taking ap macro you get to learn (in the equivalent of an introductory economics class) that there is not a "correct" economic model that conveniently conforms to your political philosophy

by **salty** December 31st 2016, 1:24 pm

see like this has gotta be an epic trole

by **Zilchexo** December 31st 2016, 1:31 pm

if you're voting for policies that benefit you and hurt everyone else that's not the way i want you to vote but you're hardly a cvck for it. if you're voting for policies that hurt you you sir are a cvck

lol no i don't expect you to because we all know you have severe adhd and severe awatism

by **Zilchexo** December 31st 2016, 1:33 pm

you're actually 100% right oaky that's why you have to consider basic cause and effect and look at history to be able to tell if something is a stupid fucking idea. austrian economics is a stupid fucking idea that gave us the great depression

it actually would were it not for one thing, nobody wanted to do degrowth so it seemed like they had no option. if what keynes was trying to say was "here's how it works and degrowth is bad because x" then he'd be dead wrong

by **Zilchexo** December 31st 2016, 6:00 pm

the problem with austrian economics is it's all "central banking and government interference is bad the government should do jack shit G O L D S T A N D A R D" when all of these policies put money in the hands of the elite which means y'know eventually nobody has any money left to buy their shit

stagflation doesnt disprove the keynesian model because the keynesian model supports the behavior (against the common belief that it proves its irrelevancy)

LOL if you watch a republican ad that uses faulty reasoning to tell you that lowering taxes on the rich is going to get you a jeb you are still voting against your interests without realizing it because it doesn't actually work that way c:

well you're right it does effectively endorse stagflation the way it was being dealt with when it came around to bite us in the ass was something nobody was ready for though because central banks are so allergic to degrowth
