an argument for a deflationary policy in the You Ess of Heeeeey

[the last yatto]

"The only reason any other government still buys treasuries"

You talking about the dollar peak-oil era? Since for the longest time oil was only sold in dollars

[Freeky]

Yes, but that would be illegal, and I would get caught.  Besides, my boss finally made us dismantle it.

Whaaaaaat but we never got to saw pics

That's okay, I'll post pics of the warhammer he's having made for me whenever it gets done.

FUCKING WARHAMMER!

you're a credit to you're university.

My irony meter needs calibrating.  I just now started giggling at this.

[Freeky]

They're going to have to start thinking rationally about their finances, or fail.  as they should.  Those of us who live within our means should not have to suffer for the ones who do not.

Have you gotten over this foolishness yet?  Because I have to say, this one still pisses me off.

The only way it even makes sense is if he was talking about banks and other large corporations, but he wasn't.

Yeah, I remember that.  I nearly flipped my shit reading this again, almost a full year after the fact, but I'm pretty sure I already went off on him for this, and I wouldn't want to do it again unless he still believes it.

Freeky,
"living beyond my means"  still means "getting enough to eat and building up a personal future."

[Disco Pickle]

hey, wow.  this was a year ago.

I still fail pretty hard at my own proof reading.

I'll have to go back and read what I wrote exactly.

What you wrote was essentially summed up in this sentence.

Well, I still think that a good bout of deflation is inevitable and necessary to allow a stronger recovery. 

"living beyond my means"  still means "getting enough to eat and building up a personal future."

I don't understand, you eat on credit?  using credit or loans to fund an education is a valid use of it, so long as you're prepared for the costs once the loans come due. 

I was referring to people who are sitting on $10,000 in unsecured debt and have a house full of shit they don't need to show for it.  Not people struggling to even put food in their stomach.

Explain the difference.

One person eats on food stamps.  That is not living within their means.

The other compulsively buys shit they don't need.  This is also not living within their means.

The economy cannot funtion without that phenomena, by the way.

Oh, so what you SAID wasn't actually what you MEANT.

And we should all know that, and judge you by what you MEANT and not what you SAID.

Yeah, it's kind of awesome that our entire economic system requires people to spend frivolously beyond their actual income in order to stay afloat. Debt! Debt! We need more debt, or our economy crashes!
