I remember thinking "How did I not know this?"<br /><br />So I think your point stands that this isn't widely known, even among people that have some interest in economics.Monsieur Boeuf Le Tethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14973971911938623487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4900303239154048192.post-44058567468551348052016-05-08T20:49:16.259-04:002016-05-08T20:49:16.259-04:00Finally someone gets it - why is this not discusse...Finally someone gets it - why is this not discussed in a wider audience?

The commentariat is paid by the .01% to not understand this issue. Which leaves the rest profoundly confused and purposefully ill-informed. This is the key means by which the .01% continues to increase the wealth and power gaps between themselves and the rest. Because you know, DEBT. (Completely disregarding increasingly dangerous levels of private debt, such as student loans.)Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12568408482345518809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4900303239154048192.post-77247545467023134782016-05-07T20:28:30.005-04:002016-05-07T20:28:30.005-04:00Yeah, but my point is that it's not just Trump...Yeah, but my point is that it's not just Trump.

You post something about Trump's odd views on debt and assets, and you got a comment from some scam artist trying to con people into dealing monetarily with a "GOD fearing man."
