so overall it’s a good investment for the fed because the more employed the more people pay in taxes etc
And plus they get the money back from the companies
well at a 0% interest rate, they are basically giving them money for free lol
hol up doing a raid
What’s wrong with income inequality
@Colonel Sanders™ 0% interest rates and cheap monetary policy
Will always cause a bust
It’s not the bust you should fear but the boom
The bust is good as it corrects the malinvestments in the economy
And by fear the boom I mean if the boom is built on a cheap credit policy , expansionary policy
But @hcaez Obama had very weak growth
Only president not to reach 3% annual growth despite that 800 billion dollar stimulus, QEs and cheap credit
The point is that people with money are usually the ones who benefit from things like rising stocks and QE
Which allows them to make more money solely based on the fact that they already have money to begin with
@Leo (BillNyeLand) how is that a problem
People benefit
That’s good
But it doesn’t trickle down
People without money just end up having to accumulate more debt
Loaned to them by people who have the privilege of wealth, even if they only got there through no hard work of their own
It stifles economic growth, as people in debt are less likely to invest or save money
Trickle down what?
You do realise when they save it in banks it gives people money to borrow
Which promotes economic growth
Saving not spending creates economic growth
Poor people are generally idiots when it comes to money by the looks of it, instead of saving they spend
It isn’t supposed to “trickle” down
I don’t know what that means
@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ he means like the money going from the top CEO’s to the workers at the bottom I.E higher wages/more jobs
Which it does trickle down
So I have no idea what the fuck he’s talking about
gotta love when they see that the 1% control like 33% of the wealth but don’t realize most of that goes back into the economy <a:ablobcool:400351720582021121>
I’m saying that it’s because of inequality that people aren’t able to save enough money
And instead have to borrow money from those who do have it
And therefore it’s really only the people with money who benefit from saving/investing money using banks
@Leo (BillNyeLand) no it’s the people who can borrow from that very money
Which stimulates the economy
Income inequality is not a problem
All wealth should be distributed equally
Why
