“Give me a long enough [time horizon] and a [compounding GDP growth rate] on which to place it, and I shall move the world [out of poverty]”, to paraphrase Archimedes.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social on the importance of spending multipliers & borrowing to invest
Zack is, without doubt, a great communicator. And on him talking about democracy & the bond markets I'm reminded of Eddie Dempsey at the Durham Miners Gala when he asked "who elected the bond market?"

sadly you can't take it as accurate as I've just tried it on accounts where I'm 100% where they are run from, because they're mine and it's wildly inaccurate. At best the code is making poor assumptions, at worst, it's deliberately chaotic disinformation.

Literally the reason Twitter sucks now is all these foreigners logged on willing to do racism for pennies on the dollar and undercut our home-grown American racists. We need to erect serious trade barriers to protect the integrity of our domestic racism industry and preserve racist jobs.

As Esau Lopez was asphyxiated for the first 17 minutes of his life on Earth, the atmosphere in the room remained serene, even ecstatic. Acoustic music crooned from a speaker in a modest two-bedroom apartment in a suburb of Pennsylvania. “You are a queen,” murmured one of three friends in the room.
Only Esau’s mother, Gabrielle Lopez, felt something was wrong.

Yes, the Central bank of Crypto has de-pegged, but with low FX reserves they had no other choice. It should boost exports and tourism.
