No. It seems pretty appropriate to complain about how a thread isnt what it is supposed to be and how it isn't working right anymore in the economics thread.

I'm still incredulous the bottom hasn't fallen out already. Who is still out here going to restaurants and buying random crap all the time, the price of everything is up and I can't stand paying the elevated prices and avoid purchases as much as possible.

I agree with you but I think that's where most people's heads are at. there are a ton of people I talk to at work who are very ambiently aware that everything is hosed but hey, 2-day delivery still works right?

I have a sneaking suspicion that Biden admin is gonna pull the same strike breaking poo poo they did with rail workers on UPS if a strike actually seems close to happening. the private trucking routes will be declared important for national security or w/e and they'll delay negotiations for 6 months and then declare striking for truckers illegal or something. The economic impact is too damaging to even consider

I would say student loans being restarted and someone getting stuck at the airport along with thousands of others due to corporate malfeasance is cogent to economics?

I think we could definitely do without the pages-long derails about dumb bullshit that I invariably pgdwn through and which stifle discussion about the stuff that's actually happening like the airlines having a staffing strike or the Supreme Court announcing a massive recession is going to happen in October.

Wall Street wants a recession for the lower classes so the lower classes lose the little bit of leverage they gained during covid. A good way of doing that is through debt peonage which will be going into overdrive now.

We will see what happens, but all analysis point towards a Thanos snap recession when student loans start.

Gotta punish labor for thinking they could get uppity the moment their betters loosened up the leash just a tiny bit. Grinding the working class's collective nose into the minimum-wage dungpile.

Assuming the AI bubble doesn't pop and take down that 10ish percent it's grown things with it first, possibly catalyzing the long coming silicon valley crash.

Long thread of the breakdown on the preferred fed measure of inflstion.
https://twitter.com/jasonfurman/status/1674766046387924993?t=EWh7p5ryYLGkeK3mnZagOA&s=19

Long story short is some ways of cutting it make it look like it is doing what the fed wants, but other ways make it look like it is still too high. Overall though it is probably still running too high. Fed will stay higher for longer on the rates.

They've already said there's two more rate hikes in the pipeline over the next two months. Unlikely to cut rates in 2024 (this is a lie).
