I lost interest here

We believe in Milton Friedman’s observation that human wants and needs are infinite.

We believe markets also increase societal well being by generating work in which people can productively engage. We believe a Universal Basic Income would turn people into zoo animals to be farmed by the state. Man was not meant to be farmed; man was meant to be useful, to be productive, to be proud.

We believe technological change, far from reducing the need for human work, increases it, by broadening the scope of what humans can productively do.

We believe that since human wants and needs are infinite, economic demand is infinite, and job growth can continue forever

If human wants and needs are infinite, why do they turn off when our basic needs are met?

This reads like a “I am so smart” post.

The “flood the zone with shit” strategy requires constant distraction. Distraction is the whole point.

Got caught in the drawer.

20 days is 2 business months for Trump.

In the toilet.

I always thought it meant ‘use the one that’s open’

I think you might be confusing a doorman with a bellhop.

It’s that moe guy.

Welcome to post-truth.

It’s a beaut!

You suffer from false nostalgia. The old machine is a beast, yes, but it has a swing shuttle. It holds very little thread, is hard to wind and load, gets tangled and makes a really crappy lockstitch. Has no reverse, piss poor stitch length adjustment and not enough balls to handle any layers without the belt slipping.

The new one is a piece of crap in comparison of build quality, but in terms of function and utility it blows the old one out of the water. And price.

I have an old one and have used it lots. It’s fun to use, but far from efficient. I’ll keep it around for the apocalypse but I’ll use a modern one from at least the 70’s (the nineteen seventies).

10 packs of underwear for $8.99.

Because God does it all the time. Duh.

Why wouldn’t it be? Probably some game like importing a side of beef and cutting it up in the US, poof “Product of America”

I’m a tradesman and get paid in $100 all the time. A guy from the city gave me $100 for a job. My wife, who is a treasurer for Girl Guides, traded her cookie money of $10’s and $20"s for my $100 and deposited it in the bank. Now the FBI can prove that my customer has an unhealthy cookie addiction.

Exactly.

Doesn’t work very well if you buy something directly from someone. Or if your cash is given out as change. Seems like it would make a wildly inaccurate profile.

You put underpants on the seat.

It’s happening to governments too, but they call it austerity.
