What I’m saying is, yes, there might be nuance, but stop avoiding the main point

2019-02-07 18:33:15 UTC  

It seems you can't debunk my argument

2019-02-07 18:33:37 UTC  

I’m not trying to I’m telling you to leave me alone because you contradict yourself and are terrible at making your point

2019-02-07 18:33:47 UTC  

Surely if it's so bad you should be able to debunk it

2019-02-07 18:33:57 UTC  

Not taking that bait hombre

2019-02-07 18:34:04 UTC  

But now you're avoiding the question

2019-02-07 18:34:22 UTC  

You're yet to tell me how the fed exisiting helps the economy

2019-02-07 18:34:27 UTC  

and why it can't run on it's own

2019-02-07 18:34:44 UTC  

And how the government created the internet when private companies were doing it a decade or so before

2019-02-07 18:35:38 UTC  

I also responded to you about privatising roads ages ago, you didn't respond.

2019-02-07 18:40:51 UTC  

Did someone say fed and internet and privatized roads

2019-02-07 18:40:56 UTC  

federal government

2019-02-07 18:40:58 UTC  

and ye

2019-02-07 19:31:48 UTC  

@Neco2040 I'd like to debate you on the "business cycle"

2019-02-07 20:33:35 UTC  

What do you mean by the "business cycle"? @sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ

2019-02-07 20:33:41 UTC  

"Boom and busts"

2019-02-07 20:33:57 UTC  
2019-02-07 20:34:09 UTC  

Ok, what about it

2019-02-07 20:34:16 UTC  

What do you believe causes it?

2019-02-07 20:35:18 UTC  

Every time we try supply side economics, there is a boom bust cycle

2019-02-07 20:35:27 UTC  

The economy grows, then it crashes

2019-02-07 20:35:58 UTC  

Define supply side economics, what policies?

2019-02-07 20:35:59 UTC  
2019-02-07 20:36:06 UTC  

And why does "supply side economics" cause it?

2019-02-07 20:38:19 UTC  

Deregulation and tax cuts

2019-02-07 20:38:35 UTC  

Every time we deregulate and cut taxes, there is growth for a short period of time, then the economy crashes

2019-02-07 20:38:54 UTC  

But why does supply side cause it?

2019-02-07 20:38:59 UTC  

you do know correlation is not causation

2019-02-07 20:39:08 UTC  

So why do tax cuts and deregulation cause it?

2019-02-07 20:42:55 UTC  

If it happened once, the causation-correlation argument would be reasonable, but it happens time and time again

2019-02-07 20:43:26 UTC  

Nope thats still not causation

2019-02-07 20:43:40 UTC  

Why do tax cuts cause recessions(or the business cycle)

2019-02-07 20:43:48 UTC  

and why does deregulation cause the business cycle

2019-02-07 20:45:35 UTC  

For example, in '08, the market crashed because of the deregulation of glass steagall, banks were investing in deravitives with our money

2019-02-07 20:45:46 UTC  

derivatives*

2019-02-07 20:45:59 UTC  

But glass stegal had nothing to do with the crash

2019-02-07 20:46:04 UTC  

nor was glass steagal fully deregulated

2019-02-07 20:46:09 UTC  

it was deregulated 1/4th

2019-02-07 20:46:22 UTC  

But thats a different topic and I'll debate that later

2019-02-07 20:46:32 UTC  

Why do tax cuts cause recessions? or the business cycle

2019-02-07 20:46:52 UTC  

I don't know how much tax cuts contribute to recessions, but my main issue with tax cuts for the wealthy is that it's harder to balance the budget and pay for programs to help Americans
