For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

It's the concept that government spending actually leads to more consumer spending. To calculate the total economic growth of a government spending package, you add in a multiplier (aka a markiplier) to the total expense to get the total economic growth.

The govt spends 1 mil, 500k of that goes to consumers who spend it again, then 250k of that is spent again, etc. The total growth is 2 mil. This kind of logic is used to justify government spending packages.
