These authors' (apparently it took 2 people to write this 500 word tripe) definition of a good economy is braindead normies spending money they don't have on cheap Chinese shit and licensed movies for babies.
Consumer spending does not equal good economy.
People wasting money on crap IS the economy.
Yeah, our economy is something like 70% consumer spending because we don't actually produce anything. People also don't have money, they're just racking up debt mostly.
Just think of what humanity could achieve if we stopped wasting money on frivolous things and put it toward human progression?
Strictly speaking, that is progression. Just towards something you don't like.
Yeah, it's actually incredible how dumb the article is on multiple levels. No wonder it took two people, that must have taken serious effort.
That's right chuds, the incredibly good Biden economy apparently runs on, uh, Taylor Swift and Barbie.
What I don't understand is why would anyone want their pet clause to claim credit for the current state of the world. I thought everything was Drumpfdemort's fault?
>runaway deficit spending and a Treasury on the verge of default
Sounds about right.
Women built modern civilization on Barbie and Taylor Swift, you misogynist shitlords!
Judging by the state of civilization that's a pretty damning indictment.
Makes sense. Women are big spenders because it "was fun" or it "made me feel good." That's the justification. Had a friend that bought $500 heels while she was talking about being in 10k credit card debt and having a fucked up foot that prevented her from actually wearing heels. I called her on it and she said "well they make me feel good so that's what matters."
Fucking hell lol
ZeroHedge had a better take on this same phenomenon:
"Millennials & Gen Z's Can't Afford To Buy A Home No Matter How Much They Save, So Why Not Embrace Nihilism And Buy Taylor Swift Tickets"

So in the minds of the authors we live in a matriarchy where women run the world's economy but we also live in a patriarchy where men oppress women and prevent them from achieving economic success.
Which is it?
Cocaine and fetus bits, you mean.
It is more of a testimony on having a target audience instead of trying to appease everyone.
I bet those stupid men who killed themselves during the Great Depression feel silly now!
Economic illiteracy is pretty much step 1 of being a liberal.
Or a woman.
