Where have the NITWIT ECONOMIST...What CAN I say???<br /><br />Where have the NITWIT ECONOMISTS been talking about the planned obsolescence of the so called DURABLE CONSUMER GOODS in the last FIFTY YEARS?<br /><br />Galbraith wrote about it in 1959. But he did not say anything about the DEPRECIATION of all of that junk. We are running the world economy on DEFECTIVE ALGEBRA! But in 1959 the global population was less than 3 BILLION. Now the world has more than double that. More people want to be consumers. So the effect of the defective algebra is even BIGGER. The economists still don't talk about it.<br /><br />But that video is about TAXES and therefore it is about GOVERNMENT.<br /><br />But NOBODY in Authority is talking about MANDATORY ACCOUNTING for ALL HIGH SCHOOL KIDS though they blather about education forever. Explain to all of those kids how their parents and grandparents have been kept ignorant and ripped off and see how they react. Now they have to deal with the accumulated stupidity and the NITWIT economists are still not going to the heart of the matter.<br /><br />http://www.spectacle.org/1199/wargame.html<br />http://www.toxicdrums.com/economic-wargames-by-dal-timgar.html<br /><br />That essay is 12 years old. I first put it on the Internet in Feb of 1999. I have had professional economists call me a Loony and an Idiot. The Laws of Physics don't give a damn about economics. The Laws of Physics can't tell the difference between a Capital Good and a Consumer Good. Cars purchased by consumers wear out, therefore they depreciate but our economists want to play magic word games and treat a $30,000 automobile just like a $3 hamburger because they call both of them CONSUMER GOODS.<br />.umbrarchisthttp://twitter.com/umbrarchistnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11539837.post-59069395297383654352011-04-13T10:25:07.344-05:002011-04-13T10:25:07.344-05:00Really good stuff Nana, thanks!!!Really good stuff Nana, thanks!!!CNuhttp://subrealism.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11539837.post-21738256523362374992011-04-13T08:13:09.416-05:002011-04-13T08:13:09.416-05:00Debt:
