show other wise

2019-07-26 01:48:46 UTC  

Its in the journal

2019-07-26 01:48:53 UTC  

you showed that it started out as more efficient

2019-07-26 01:49:03 UTC  

that isn't the same thing as being more productive

2019-07-26 01:49:44 UTC  

LEARN TO READ

2019-07-26 01:49:56 UTC  

the third paragraph says

2019-07-26 01:50:09 UTC  

the divergence STARTED before the soviets had any impact

2019-07-26 01:50:16 UTC  

The other is a divergence between West German and East German TFP levels. The latter turned East German industry from having a non-trivial productivity lead over its western counterpart in 1946 to trailing West German productivity by the late 1940s, and rapidly losing ground.

2019-07-26 01:50:27 UTC  

and no doom

2019-07-26 01:50:39 UTC  

its talking about institutional implementations

2019-07-26 01:50:48 UTC  

by productivity here they are referring to total factor productivity which is a measure of efficiency

2019-07-26 01:51:06 UTC  

but the 2nd paragraph states that that decoupling is not a sufficient explanation for what happened

2019-07-26 01:51:12 UTC  

A primary determinant in GDP

2019-07-26 01:51:13 UTC  

basically shit started with the decoupling

2019-07-26 01:51:17 UTC  

which the journal acknowledges

2019-07-26 01:51:19 UTC  

and then soviets made it even worse

2019-07-26 01:51:22 UTC  

and was their primary point for mentioning it

2019-07-26 01:51:26 UTC  

jesus man

2019-07-26 01:51:29 UTC  

this is sad

2019-07-26 01:52:11 UTC  

The article says: decoupling bad, soviet rule also bad

2019-07-26 01:52:11 UTC  

lol

2019-07-26 01:52:40 UTC  

the point in mentioning it was to say that it was the primary cause of the slowdown in growth in the 40's as opposed to the change in capital stock caused by soviet reparations

2019-07-26 01:52:51 UTC  

Before we get into broader issues

2019-07-26 01:53:00 UTC  

acknowledge they started out with advantage

2019-07-26 01:53:15 UTC  

you keep moving goalpost and denying until your face turns red

2019-07-26 01:53:39 UTC  

i'm not moving goalposts lmao

2019-07-26 01:54:05 UTC  

i never said that east germany didn't start out with an advantage in total factor productivity

2019-07-26 01:55:32 UTC  

tfp is not a good proxy for gdp per capita

2019-07-26 01:56:00 UTC  

The journal mentioned it is . Ican show you a host of other sources discussing TFP as being primary determinant

2019-07-26 01:56:04 UTC  

show me otherwise

2019-07-26 01:56:07 UTC  

fvcking syria and mexico have some of the highest tfp measures in the world

2019-07-26 01:56:44 UTC  

source ?

2019-07-26 01:57:05 UTC  

Y'all arguing like it's *unusual* for a nation with a healthy industrial base to degrade over time under socialism. That's like half the history of socialism. The other half is places that didn't have an industrial base.....

2019-07-26 01:57:24 UTC  

Its june trying to make that argument

2019-07-26 01:57:29 UTC  

that somehow starting from same place

2019-07-26 01:57:35 UTC  

having 50 years to make progress

2019-07-26 01:57:47 UTC  

and ending up 30 percent of the gdp

2019-07-26 01:57:50 UTC  

is somehow normal

2019-07-26 01:58:59 UTC  

"starting from same place"

2019-07-26 01:59:04 UTC  

again you haven't demonstrated this
