Maybe if companies stopped price gouging people would stop expecting higher inflation.

Man its crazy how people expecting companies to raise prices forces them to raise prices. I guess thats why we leave the real thinking up to economists.

I guess thats why we leave the real thinking up to economists. the absolute absurdity of the entire structure and enterprise of corporate economies should become immediately apparent to anyone who has worked in Business Doing on the budgeting or finance side for more than one year. I guess if you somehow don't learn anything from your first go-round then you could push it to like 18 months. as soon as you hear some upjumped MBA type with cufflinks say "But you grew by X this year, so next year your target is based on that." it should be curtains for anyone's faith/belief.

so these social media companies implode when they go public because they have to clean up for the payment processors. this has happened a few times. it’s really predictable. why don’t they just make their own sex tolerant payment processor?

The real solution is a steep vacancy tax, but we know taxes are tantamount to evil and Number will get a sad.

if they lower rents they can’t get those revolving loans. they absolutely will not lower rents until they are going to go bankrupt and maybe not even then.

yeah we're too far gone beyond the event horizon that no amount of liberal economics 101-rear end 'free market forces' is going to rationalize landlordism back to 'reality'. it's not going to happen

It will take everyone born before 1980 dying for some of these things to get broad support in the population much less any hope of them ever being realized by a government agency
