After learning a bit about differential equations, I was able to figure out how to build a Lotka–Volterra model, also known as a predator-prey system, demonstrating the non-linear dynamics between the population of hares and coyotes.

Get ready for frequent power outages thanks to Trump killing the renewable energy tax credit, which will decimate our energy capacity while artificial intelligence, data centers, and crypto mines are projected to take up too much of the energy supply.

Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" will slash resources for households in the bottom 50 percent while the top 10 percent receive permanent tax cuts. This is class warfare!

I'm currently multi-tasking, I have four tabs open in Google Chrome; one half is basically yuri manga and fanfiction, and the other half is heterodox economics blogs.

China needs to obtain dollars before buying treasury bonds, which they do through trading with the issuer of the dollar, the United States. This is how global trade works. Also, as the issuer of dollars, the United States does not need to "borrow" from China to buy its exported goods.

Trump claims he wants to bring back manufacturing, yet his policies have only worsened things for manufacturers. He is now threatening to withhold investments already promised to chipmakers. Trade isolationism and removing subsidies are not how you promote reindustrialization.

Trump's "reciprocal" tariffs are going to make groceries more expensive. Since 2020, the US has been importing more agricultural commodities than exporting, meaning we are heavily reliant on global trade.

Here's the WH calculation on tariffs

Export - imports / -4 * 0.25 * imports

So basically, trade deficit / imports...

Do not let the state dictate who we are. We are not going to put ourselves back in the closet. We must be visible. We must be strong. Happy Trans Day of Visibility 🏳️‍⚧️

This "Marxist" was asking me why I unfollowed them and scolded them for reposting neoliberal content on their page. He said, "Literally, the only thing I agree with neoliberals and libertarians on is free trade, cutting regulations, and disliking price controls."

Domalewski doesn't understand that in the late 1980s to early 1990s, a massive real estate bubble burst, which plunged the Japanese economy into stagnation.

It's funny that liberals reinvented Reaganomics, with green capitalism as a way to achieve renewable energy and affordable housing, when societies with government intervention already achieve all of those things.

Last night, I had to say goodbye to my beloved baby girl, Maggie. After years of heart complications, there was nothing more we could do beyond medicine. She was the sweetest little girl and will be missed by her family.

Trump: We are considering putting 25% tariffs on the EU

In observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we commemorate King's enduring contributions to civil rights and economic justice. May we continue to preserve his dream and expand toward a democratic economic system that prioritizes the basic needs of all working-class Americans.

America is not speeding toward bankruptcy. Elon Musk failed to realize that the sovereign issuer of dollars, the US government, can never become insolvent or be forced to default on its debt. The deficit should not be viewed as a threat; instead, the private sector's surplus.

Pero los izquierdistas americanos me dice qué austeridad republicana solo va a recorte las limusinas de los empleados del gobierno

The government by organized money is just as dangerous as government by organized mob.

Fiscal conservatism within the left is a tumor. Reducing the deficit does not equal more money spent on social programs. It is a reduction in private sector income and savings. It also creates obstacles to meeting human rights guaranteed by the Mexican Constitution.
