Is there a way to sue someone, perhaps a mother, my mother for instance, in a loving way

Like I'm suing but I'm saying I love you

For the Democrats to prevail they must become democrats.

They must defend the people in the name of the people, not in the name of the republic.

i.e. they brake the law in the name of the people.

The Democrats want to be republicans in the sense that they want to invalidate the legitimacy of elected politicians simply because they have violated the laws of the republic in word or in spirit.

Another example of the democratic principle (rule of the people) and the republican principle (rule of law) coming into conflict.

Republicans are demagogic in the sense that they rhetorically use the democratic principle to undermine the republican principle.

At the end of the day the Republic has it's own politics

I think both stalin and Hitler would agree, so maybe "utopia" wasn't the the dangerous ideas in play

It looks like demand and inflation are negatively correlated

I watched that film the other day. Bummer ending.

Actually this is another an example of how they act differently

Just because you can get the money, or a cash flow constraints is satisfied, does not mean the inflation constraint is satisfied

I think there is a problem looking at nominal wealth of the rich as a tax source, and that is:

The wealth of the rich is held up in asset values, often financial. It's not being used to pitches real things the state would want to spend on.

Damn is that a positive number?

What are you? Labour aristocracy
October 29, 2025 at 9:23 PM
Sounds good let's do it
October 29, 2025 at 9:22 PM
So taxing the rich would not clear the agregate demand needed for fiscal spending to be non-inflationary

Thats totally different from the value of the currency decreasing in different sectors for a host of complex and interacting factors
October 29, 2025 at 8:35 PM
No, no it's not, that's an inflation constraint.

It works totally differently even if both ultimately mean you can't buy everything on the planet.

A cash flow constraint means income has tobe spiced and their is the possibility that you will fail to raise the cash, and become illiquid
October 29, 2025 at 8:35 PM
These very extreme cases not only prove the point that states don't face cash flow constraints, but are also not compatible to the UK, or China
October 29, 2025 at 8:31 PM
In both cases, the economy collapsed but the state still had to buy real imports.

Something similar with WG

In all cases, dispite the hellish economic conditions the state did not collapse and did not face a cash flow constraint.
