It certainly did, inflation started right before the lockdowns started in response to the market shock from the rumors, and hasn't stopped or massively slowed. It was not higher during the various stimulus packages or giveaways.

Yes, as per their explicit policy, you can never be racist or discriminatory against white people no matter what you say or do.

Or in other words they believe in the power dynamic version of racism, instead of the idea that racism is discrimination based on race.

Homer Simpson got on disability for being 300lbs, and he had to work comically hard to gain the 70 pounds to hit that mark.

...so that insatiable, ridiculous weight he was already at was only 230 freedoms. Easily half the adult population is near or above that. Hell that's not even particularly overweight if you're tall and somewhat in shape.

Sh.itjust.works pretty much never bans unless you break international law or spam. Unfortunately that means sometimes Nazis come to this instance but usually they're bullied out.

As someone that had a .ml account until it was explained to me that racism is explicitly allowed on ml.. it's okay on this instance. You lose hexbear but that's the only downside.

Just never fall for .ee or .world. terrible instances, those.

Of course it's a .world account stepping up to defend Nazis.

Except you have the order reversed, especially with recent inflation where inflation happened before the increase in monetary supply.

More often than not inflation under sovereign monetary issues is solely due to outside forces, not money supply.

...you have no idea the scale of destruction Israel has wrought. Educate yourself.

We will never agree with your current level of education and this conversation cannot continue under the current site rules.

MMT is the counter example to that, and it's how all sovereign currency issues work right now.

In the US, taxes do not fund the government. They haven't since at least the death of the gold standard. They act as a way to remove currency from circulation. The US just prints money and allows individual banks to print nearly unlimited money. It taxes in order to remove money from circulation and keep inflation at the target, but even then inflation isn't necessarily connected to the amount of money available, just the perception of money available.

There's plenty of ways to use MMT in other ways though, to print more money. If we create a function to invalidate 'dead' or noncirculated money, then we can print triple thr amount of money we do without raising the rate of inflation... But that would hurt rich people.

It's hardly a genocide to try, jail, and rehabilitate Nazis. Over half the Israeli population supports Nazi actions. If we fold the Palestinian population into that population of Nazis, their lives won't get better. We'd have to spend centuries as a global community commiting third party police and military to protect Palestinian Israelis from all others, while still calling them by their colonizers name.

Instead, we return the state of Palestine. We deport the Nazis. We let the state of Palestine set the terms of their return and settlement, should that be something they have in their hearts to do.

I'm sorry to say but the Holocaust wasn't shit at this point. Palestinians have had it worse at the hands of Zionists. Asking the victims to forever bare the names of their victimizers is crazy.

Imagine telling the Jews to just get back to Nazi Germany with vague assurances they'll be real citizens this time but keeping the name Nazi Germany.

Investing billions in raising the quality of life so people don't do terrorism is not genocide and never will be.

The real solution is to make them all Palestinian citizens after deporting and arresting the ~50% of Israelis that supported the genocide long after international bodies called it genocide.

More than half of those have higher average living standards than the US.
