Wtf
@Mr1Gonzalez I didn’t say they were distinct im saying microeconomics are irrelevant if we’re talking about the sum of the economy. No, they don’t go “hand in hand” in this situation. One is about the whole economy, one is about how firms make decisions, therefore micro is irrelevant to us rn. Also, I said a 2 person household not a 3 person household so try not to put words in my mouth. My proof is the number of people in poverty in America, which is a massive sum (around 40 million). It’s an embarrassment to the world that we don’t care about our people, that we think of all 40 million as being lazy and smoking. Also, even if they are *all* smokers, isn’t that a massive problem?? You can’t just say “all of society does this horrible thing” and think “well they should just all change that” without thinking “why the fuck are all poor people smoking.” You’re missing the forest for the trees my dude. You’ll return with a list of 100 people that are entitled? Cool. There’s 40 million in poverty. I’ll subtract the 7 or so who are unemployed, so my list is 33 million people who are apparently lazy entitled people who are also in poverty. Let’s see your 100.
Where did you study economics? @wahx
Taken classes in high school n college. You?
Define poverty wahx
Same. However I feel that the knowledge you gained is faltered by how you debate. You said I changed the words you said and implied I said you stated “3 person home” when you said two. I advise you to read again because I stated 2-3 person home implying both accounts
What do you mean poverty as in 40 million
Nobody changed your words buddy
I said 2, you said 2-3
@wahx you’re talking about relative poverty
Which is NOT poverty
it’s relative to the median income in USA
Which is very high
Kk I know what poverty I’m talking about thanks
There’s only 2% of the population on world poverty levels
You’re talking about relative poverty
Hence why you said 40 million
So don’t put words in my mouth then and say I said “3 person home”
Yes thank you
Don’t be a hypocrite
That’s incorrect
It was 2
You said I said 3
Yes, 2-3 includes 3
W o w
Yes it also includes 2
Wow!
Ok this is dumb
The point is wahx
What else can we learn today
What you’re talking about poverty
Is not poverty
I understand your view on this
You are not teaching me something
Lmao
You’re measuring income inequality , which is unrelated to the state of the economy
Yes thank you did
Then why did you use it
As a bad thing
