Marzzle posted:prison labor is already tapped out but maybe they could expand it to more violent and uncontrollable inmates the amount of people taken out of the labor force by death or permanent injury (the latter very estimated since we basically aren't tracking it) from covid exceeds the entire us prison population, even without accounting for how the us prison system population is itself being slaughtered and crippled at rates so high states like texas and new york have (at different times) felt compelled to stop tracking so they don't look bad there's only so much blood

You simply don't see these efficiencies in nations like France.

Good thing our economy doesn't operate on the labor theory of value or acknowledge materialist analysis or else this could be interpreted as a pretty grim omen!

They hated Smith and Ricardo not just because Marx respected and agreed with them on some stuff, but also because they were basically Maoists when it came to rent seekers and landlords, so for the post-industrial financialization phase of the whole thing they had to go and were replaced by a bunch of lunatics and cranks until the Austrians and Chicago School captured enough institutions of press and finance to start manufacturing legitimacy more broadly

Amazing to watch industry being so unaccustomed to market competition for labor that they don't know what to do besides mumbling nobody wants to work anymore and shut down I guess that's what happens when everyone tries to staff up at once

Amazon pushing for legal weed. https://gizmodo.com/amazon-is-lobbying-the-u-s-to-legalize-weed-1847719317 I want weed legalized, but not because Bezos can't get workers. Let's just legalize it to piss off all the Nancy Reagan types. And because it's the right thing to do.

It's really something that rents are higher than mortgages yet the house prices are such that many renters cannot save enough for the down payment. Landlords don't want to leave that money on the table and raise rates accordingly to retain their lock on the market.

How is it that homelessness is on the rise, rents are double, and yet there are still no vacancies as more and more people sublet just to survive.

eSporks posted:ftfy Most people aren't homeless and everyone needs a place to live. Rent is "unaffordable" in the sense that a lot of people need to accept rents they can't afford. Homes are unaffordable in the sense that lots of people can't really get approved for a mortgage at all or, if they can, can't buy a house that wouldn't immediately drive them broke. There's really no practical upper bound on rents because a majority of people will do absolutely anything to avoid being homeless, and you have no alternative if you literally can't buy a house.
