Fundamentally speaking, what's wrong with the economy? Some of youse are saying this dip ain't solely from corona. That there is something wrong in the economy itself and corona was just a little push in that direction. So what the fuck exactly is wrong with the economy when jobs, unemployment etc looks so good? Is it just the doomers bullshitting or what?

Giant fucking ponzi scheme propped up by reckless borrowing.

Guess what, you can create jobs and employment and record-high share prices if you pump trillions of dollars of cheap loans out into the world. People will spend money buying shit that's unnecessary.

Mmmm maybe continuous nonstop QE for 11 years along with permanently low interest rates and massively overvalued stocks wayyy beyond any realistic price to earnings ratio is a problem. That and real wages not increasing while housing, healthcare, education, and auto loans have skyrocketed could be an issue. Or massive wealth inequality fueled by Republitard cut taxes and deficit spend forever, future be damned. Pick all or some of the above.

With a deflationary currency companies have no incentive to pay a wage at all for unskilled labor, it would instead be more cost effective to simply provide housing and food for their workers instead of a wage... which is hugely inefficient for the economy but will save them from having to spend their valuable cash.

I never thought Trump's economy looked good. Job numbers are not better than Obama's. Maybe workforce participation is great but only slightly better than Obama. GDP numbers are worse than Obama. The current 2% GDP growth is not even "good." Inflation is worse, whether you measure it by CPI or real inflation which is off the charts (closer to 10% by the chapwood index and others). Not even stocks are that great. Average return even at ATH in jan was about the same as Obama, just more volatile (big crash in '18, big recovery in '19). Now stocks are of course much worse than Obama.

So I don't get why people think Trump's economy ever looked good, even in January. I thinks its more of a stereotype that the Reagan style big government, spend more, tax less, print money policy is good for the economy. Combined with the bounce back from the 2018 crash, maybe that's why people got euphoric.

So you have an economy that is growing at 2%, with real prices increasing almost 10%. How does that look good? Sounds like a recession. Technically, we've been in a recession for about two years now with GDP growth consistently well below inflation. After corona, prices will probably head up even more and productivity will drop even more. The real question is will this ongoing recession become a full blown depression, and how long can the government keep the wool over people's eyes by printing money to keep the digits going up, even though most people's quality of life is getting worse and worse. Maybe like frogs boiling in water, they'll never notice until its gets real bad.

White people. White people are what’s wrong with the economy and the world. White people enslaved generous brown people, raped them, beat them, because white people are greedy and scared of everything. The native Indians say when all the animals shared their knowledge with humans the animals shared their knowledge of fear to white people. Now white people are afraid of everything and always come up with some new scheme to one up everyone and nature while maintaining continuous war—war against Asians, war against Muslims, war against natives, war against communism, war against terror. All the while being hateful, hating Jews, hating Asians, hating blacks, just gook this, chink that, nigger nigger, kike. No other race does it as much as the white trash. And other races stood aside and quietly tolerated it because they didn’t want any trouble and could see the psychosis of the white man, the mental retardation, the paranoia, the schizophrenia. You can’t argue with stupidity so other races left. Where they couldn’t leave and were pursued by colonialism, they quietly tolerated it and gave out of love in hope that the white man would eventually see the error of his ways, but the mental disease was too strong, and the white man saw it as weakness and conquered more.

Our economy is no longer producing anything of value. For the past couple of decades we let women into the workforce which completely changed the focus of good employees from the amount of effort they put in to how attractive and charismatic they are. The people at the top are now good looking moronic douchebags (mostly accountants) who don't know how to spur innovation or make their companies more efficient internally. They only know how to cut costs which destroys quality and the company as a whole over time. The worst part is the CEO accountants figured out how to make killing these companies profitable.

We are dealing with centuries old debt, why do you think gold was taken from the people back in the 30's? It's surety upon the debt of the nation. These debts were created by war then never paid. The beautiful part about the plan is when they removed the ability to pay they also removed ownership. Now true ownership is impossible. So the rules of this world now own everything, what is left for them to take as surety on this national debt? the only thing left to be taken is hope. they already own you, via Certificates, a document of ownership.

>>17677586
This is the closest answer, imo. The eurodollar market is fucking terrifying and could easily become a house of cards. In practice, the Fed uses the repo market to provide liquidity to banks, which then becomes shadow money as an interbank loan to smaller banks. If enough smaller banks crash, then the big banks become insolvent and collapse, bringing most of the financial system down with it. This could easily happen with a black swan event like coronavirus, or oil dropping 30%, or any major geopolitical intervention in the countries that owe that interbank debt.

Then you can't talk yourself into owning a treasury, but they are at all time low yields

if people think the US will default on its debt, either outright or by devaluing their currency (inflation) the yields should be way up in double digits

EROEI is the stupidest thing I've ever come across. We don't use energy to explore for energy, we use money to explore. EROEI hasn't been used in an E&P company since about a week after it was first used, once we all realised it's bullshit.

Maybe it's basic thermodynamics on the scale of multiple millennia or million years, but it doesn't feature at all on our timescale. As long as the value of a barrel goes up, more resources will become viable. You have no idea of how many big discoveries have been buried and saved for later

there are three fundamental issues with the economy:

1. increasing inequality due to stagnant wage growth and the loss of jobs that can be done by morons - the elimination of the middle class

2. no significant growth in productivity since the 90s means there is nowhere for businesses to invest - they are using historically low interest rates just to pay dividends and buy back shares rather than stimulate the economy

3. exploding asset prices due to point number 2 - the lack of investment opportunities means people have no choice but to plow their money in to real estate and index funds

If you wanna talk globally we've been too reliant on "just in time" supply chains. Part of what you're seeing right now with global markets is the inevitable shock from when China shut down a lot of the country a month ago. All the little nuts and bolts needed to make everything dried up.

Real inflation is 10$. If you make $100k today it's like you made $50k in 2010. If you live in NYC that's like making $30k adjusted for cost of living. Making $100k is a lot of work. Working for $100k for $30k value is not worth working at all. If working for $100k doesn't make sense in the financial capital of the world, what part of this economy is even real?

Overdependence on 2-3 industries
(military, energy, tech), that are actually inherently volatile, and interlinked meaning small movements have huge feedback loops.
Bloated financial sector and shrinking stable employment mean that uncertainty abounds which is shitty for 99% of Americans.
At the heart of it there is also the fact that there are no real investments for middle class Americans. The closest thing to investment for C1-C2 is property which is grossly overpriced and crashes every 10 years.
All of this isn't a bug of course, its a feature and has been since the 60s. So it isn't that the economy "doesn't work", it's that it doesn't work for you.

You are clearly obsessed with central banking. Do you know that our current mode of production is way larger than central banking? It requires a State, private property of the means of production, wage labor, money, delegation of power throught representative democracy. Central banking is only a part of our current system, but i don't know you cucks focus solely on this. I also was mainly focused around central banks, it was until around 2014 i think. Being out of date in the internet era, especially on 4chan is pathetic. By the way, but of course you didn't noticed it, central banks didn't take control of Capitalism, Capitalism required and still want central banks. But as usual, you are lost in causality reversal.
