Opinion: There is nothing that China wants to import, nothing it does not believe it can make better and cheaper, nothing for which it wants to rely on foreigners a single day longer than it has to. https://t.co/CILu2Amre9

🇨🇦 spends 11.6% of GDP on healthcare, 26% more than the OECD avg for countries w/universal healthcare. Per capita ranks: - doctors: 28th - nurses: 16th - somatic beds: 26th - psychiatric beds: 25th 🇨🇦 doesn't need privatization—we need to ask where the f*ck our money is going.

🇨🇦: Woman brought to the ER by ambulance and waits 20 hours, finds out she was having a heart attack. The biggest threat to 🇨🇦 isn’t a foreign country—it’s the people in charge.

Price-setting behavior of firms in the UK Supply and demand? Nope Mark-up pricing? Yep Neoclassical/AE? Nope PK? Yep

@SteveSaretsky The point of the tax wasn’t to raise revenue - it was to incentivize the owners of empty homes to rent them out. The less it raised, the more successful it was.

The US Treasury — one of the architects of the Washington Consensus — is offering to bail out a neoliberal capitalist experiment in order to prove that it works. It doesn't get more ironic than this.

LoL What's happened to the "free" economics of Libertarians/Austrian Economists? Where are the Von Mises clowns?

Important chart. S&P 490 has had basically no earnings growth since 2022, despite rampant inflation. It’s just 10 companies doing really well, while the broader economy is in contraction in real terms.

Instead of spam calls from the "Chinese CRA," I now receive 2-3 spam texts daily from "recruiters" offering me an "incredible part-time work opportunity". I guess it's too much to expect any Canadian government to care about the integrity of our communications systems, eh?

@YamanAmin9 Simon Kuznets, GDP's creator, explicitly warned it doesn't measure societal progress or welfare, stating national income inferences about well-being are limited. Under Harper (2006-2015), underemployment rose post-2008 recession; involuntary part-time work increased ~20-30%

Hey @grok, based on my tweets, what would be the first 10 policies I would enact should I be appointed Prime Minister?

Happy “The 6M and YTD charts are the same today” Day to all who celebrate. @TheStalwart

Future generations will be crushed under this mountain of financial wealth.

Yet another Ontario resident forced to move west to find a job.

Political staffers: unless you understand M0 M1 M2 monetary financing and how bonds are rated by ratings agencies PLEASE stop commenting on monetary policy
