Yeah, because only one side cares about language and the words we use. The other side is a bunch of disengenous fuck bags with zero beliefs outside of economics
Yeah, I used the term loosely to represent Money. No American government has displayed sound economic policy in terms of their populace. Economics itself is a broken fake science that does not factor in real world costs like human lives, environmental damage, etc…
Conservative economics are not actually good economics. I hate that even liberals like to concede to the “economics” brand that conservatives talk about.
As someone who has actually taken whole assed courses on economics… What economics?
Whether conservative or liberal, politicians don’t make economic decisions, they make political decisions.
I have yet to see any politician who consistently made, or even publicly recognised, the better economic decision.
Economically, a well trained, and healthy population is a good thing. So providing relief for the costs of being healthy through something like a healthcare program, is in everyone’s best interest. Ensuring that people can get the training they need to be the most efficient they can be, is in everyone’s best interest. These things are good for the economy.
Conservatives make it seem like they’re making choices that are good for the economy, and they certainly make statements that try to convince everyone that’s the case, but bluntly, they make capitalistic decisions. Decisions that help capitalists. If they can rob, steal, kill, or maim someone to bump profits, they’ll do it, and their friends in government will help them do it, and get protection for doing it.
They’re not interested in the economy, they’re interested in their pocketbook, and whatever make it fatter. Even if the cost is future economic downturn, they’ll do it if it bumps profits this quarter.
… Like firing an entire department to save on the wages of the people that they fired, when those people are still needed, and now you’ll need to spend more money to hire replacements for almost all of them, but this quarters numbers will look amazing, and the CEO, and his buddies in the c-suite will get their bonuses, and the shareholders will get a few dollars more per share in dividends this quarter.
They wouldn’t know good economics if they were surrounded by it. They can’t see that far.
Oh I know. I took a few courses on economics in college too. It’s absolutely insane and seems so obvious to me that this should be seen as bad economic policy. It’s wild that a commonly held belief by a lot of people is that conservative politicians are good for the economy, they just lack social morality or some shit. Their economics are absolutely idiotic and horrible.
To be fair, the “other side” isn’t really any better.
I’ve kind of seen left/right as socialistic/capitalistic respectively. Personally, I’m bigger on social/community/common (for everyone) services, like universal healthcare, than I am for capitalism in general.
There absolutely cannot be consolidation of power, making any government more like an authoritarian regime, regardless of social/communal views or objectives, but at the same time, it is theoretically possible to have a healthy amount of socialism in a democracy. Many EU nations have struck a good balance of these things already, and my country, Canada, isn’t super far behind them. America is still stuck in cave-man, aggressive capitalism times.
Selling off state assets and cutting taxes for the rich isn’t really good economics. Its selling the future of your children to the future trillionaires.
Yeah, because only one side cares about language and the words we use.
People across the political spectrum care. But views vary significantly around what words and language should be encouraged and what should be censored.
Nobody with an ounce of authority is actually against censorship of one degree or another. FFS, some of the biggest modern media censors are the wanna-be libertarian scalds of the Obama administration (Bari Weiss being an obvious example). Censorship is a method of shaping public perception and encouraging civil actions of one sort or another. The irony of Kirk’s death is that he repeatedly extolled the virtues of political violence only to eat shit when one of his own Groyper buddies went off the reservation. Hell, his final breath was expended snarkily deflecting the threat of mass shootings onto “gang violence”.
Anyone who says they don’t care about the political use of language is either nakedly naive or blowing smoke up your ass. And you can often tell one from the other by asking whether they’re old enough to buy their own beer.

I feel “economice” is too wide of a phrase to be used with these cunts.
They don’t believe in economics, they believe in self service, control, and grifting as much as they can.
It’s not economics, it’s taking advantage of the mentally disabled half of the population.

That’s a weird of saying having an executive board that is weak as fuck & won’t stand behind their commentators.
