"Somebody must be doing something." - everyone lol. The US is cooked, maybe not immediately but say goodbye to hegemony, goodbye to whatever shred of upward mobility remained, and goodbye to the possibility of retirement.

the funny thing about this quote is that you can post it under anything mildly outrageous and tons of people will go "mhmmm yes that's me the critical thinker" regardless of their actual mental faculties.

can you imagine being a Democrat congressperson who actually wants to do something useful for people and having to listen to this? I'd probably just resign.

Hey, you should learn about a simple concept known as "conflict of interest." That might help you understand the position of others. Your education arguments are completely irrelevant.

fun fact, "most" real numbers have this property. If you were to mark each one on a number line, you'd fill the whole line out. Numbers that don't have this property are vanishingly rare.

I'm not going to explain all of macroeconomics to you, but the whole point of this discussion is decreasing prices is bad because money stops moving. If money stops moving, you stop getting paid. Is that simple enough for you to understand or does it need to be dumbed down further?

No, like paying your wages. You should read a bit about how things work before getting upset.
