Please SHARE! A NEW Report that maps the multi-billion-dollar industry built on the #loneliness, #economic #anxiety, and identity of #men. It presents itself as the antidote to a society that has failed men — then sells them the very things that keep them isolated, financially drained, and psychologically dependent on the young men profiting from their struggle. #Grift #economy https://www.equimundo.org/resources/the-grift-economy/

https://keenlens.substack.com/p/the-bank-of-england-admitted-in-2014 'I see everyday #politicians repeat like parrots #economic propositions they don't even start to understand, defending a model that a central #bank admitted was wrong over twelve years ago. ... The #Greens propose actual structural change and get labelled "communist" by people who have never read a balance sheet or a #Lenin text. The heterodox approach #predicted #2008, predicted the #housing #crisis, and predicted the current private #debt trap. The orthodox models predicted none of it ...' 'The orthodox model was declared wrong by the Bank of #England in 2014. Their paper “#Money Creation in the Modern Economy” stated plainly: #banks do not lend out deposited #reserves in a multiplier chain. Banks create #deposits when they make #loans ...' (NZ's Social Credit Party got a Court to agree five decades earlier.) 'The consequences are not theoretical or academic. When you worship the wrong model, you can’t do anything else than design the wrong #policy. You pretend not to see the #monopoly extracting over 6 billions from a #mortgage market they control 87% of. You don’t see that raising rates shift #income from #borrowers to banks and does not touch the supply of housing stock. You end up believing the #household metaphor is literal — that the Crown pockets are empty — when #NZ’s #Crown debt is 44% of #GDP...' (The OECD average is about twice that.) '... #Galileo was almost burned at stake for simply asking the #Inquisition #judges to look in the telescope. Same old, same old.' '..... 'Gentlemen, it is clear cut #class #warfare, and the #vested interests are so encrusted in #society that they are winning. Remember that their main weakness is in numbers, they are damaging and literally #robbing the majority of us, of the New Zealand society and brainwashing many trees to think that voting for the axe is the #prudent, #family sensible thing to do. The only chance you have is when numbers talk. The #election is coming...'

The outbreaks have taken a steep #economic toll, as #state & #local #PublicHealth departments strained to track down everyone exposed to the #virus, start #vaccination campaigns & analyze tests. Researchers have estimated that in 2025, each #measles case cost the #US more than $100,000, when factoring in #HealthCare spending & the days of missed work for sick people or caretakers. #idiocracy #Trump #RFKJr #science #medicine #policy #USpol #ConspiracyTheories #AntiVax #eugenics #disinformation

https://carrickryan.substack.com/p/the-truth-is-behind-the-headlines '#Populism, by its nature, rests upon the notion that all of the complex problems that #society is compelled to address actually have very simple #solutions. 'To hold this world view, it necessitates a deep mistrust of #expertise, of #institutions, and of #science, and anyone else that dares explain why the "simple solution" has already been dismissed from calculations. 'These are the natural adversaries of anyone intoxicated by overconfidence as a result of the Dunning Kruger Effect; a phenomenon by which those with the least amount of knowledge on a complex topic are so deficient in knowledge that they do not understand how much they don't know. 'Within that context, the visible impatience from those who spent decades studying the minute nuances of a topic can be indiscernible from arrogance, or potentially even intentional obfuscation. '..... 'Polling data has consistently shown that One Nation's support is strongest among people without a #university degree, particularly when combined with older age and living in regional or #rural Australia. These are, in many ways, those that have benefited the least from #globalisation and those that suffered the most from growing #economic #inequality. '#Conspiracy theories offer an explanation for their loss of #status and #wealth that appeals to our natural instinct to blame misfortune on the malicious acts of others. It is cathartic to attribute grievance to the immorality of a nefarious "elite" rather than our own failure to adapt to a rapidly changing world....'

Cuba’s #economy has been mired in stagnation for years, crippled by the #communist government’s failed #economic model and #domestic #policies, while also strained by decades of U.S. #sanctions.

The #economic system has developed on its own. We assume that it is subject to laws that are similar to the laws of nature: we only describe them, we do not try to change them. It is geared towards continuous growth and maximum profit and is a vicious circle of #greed and the production of goods. With limited resources, constant growth must lead to collapse—this is a simple insight from #systems science and common sense. The faster the growth, the more rapid the collapse.
