Pointe du Hoc is a pretty cool place. Dragged the brats there two years ago. In fact, Familia Bearswiin invaded France two years ago today

It used to be not as bad of a Ponzi scheme back when life expectancy was only in the lower 60's and everyone had 2.1 or more kids. At least the blue collar whites are trying to DO SOMETHING with declining life expectancy.dnc said:GrundleStiltzkin said:

Our? next POTUS Howard Schultz is going to sell out our? retirement funds just like he sold out our? Sonics.

FDR's greatest accomplishment was pissing off enough people for the 22nd amendment to be passed. The same is needed for congressional terms.GrundleStiltzkin said:

I wonder if WWII hadn't started (in Europe along with Sino-Japanese War) if he would have run for a 3rd term. I mean for 144 years Presidents follow GW's precedent.Southerndawg said:

For the record, lots of economists agree and that the New Deal was horrible policy. Video is a bit dry, but decent, and she's hot. So maybe even @Swaye will watch it on mute.YellowSnow said:

Of course, all the poly sci/social science majors will tell you that the New Deal was a huge success bc reasons...
FDR's death probably saved us all a lot of socialist bullshit. -

That said, even if it was not necessarily the best economic approach, it was still a political necessity. And long term, there's still a lot of long term benefit from legislation like SS, FDIC.
And for Christ's sake, we can not forget the god damned damns. W/o Grand Coulee, Bonneville, and TVA, WWII takes a lot longer to win- i.e., no cheap and readily available electricity for aluminum and uranium/plutonium enrichment. -

Look, I love Friedman as much as any So Cal, Brooks Brothers, Young Republican. And I don't disagree with his critiques of the flaws in how SS was designed. My point is more along the lines that in a country such as ours, it's good public policy to ensure that old people have some base level of income when they can't work anymore. And there's not really a way to accomplish this goal other than some form of "mandatory" savings through taxation (even if current retirees are paid by taxation of current workers). Americans by their nature abhor the concept of wealth transfers, so really the only way sell SS to the voters was the idea that we all pay in and we all get something out upon retirement age, regardless of our financial situation at that time. A "needs based" plan would never have been feasible politically speaking.UW_Doog_Bot said:Friedman is not nearly as WOOD but his credentials are probably a lot better if you'd prefer to watch him.

Seriously though, they are different degrees(at UW). The BS is a lot more rigorous and you have to do a lot of actual maths and such. It's why I get paid to science stuff. With a BA I would have probably had to go get a Masters to do anything with like many of my friends who partied a little more in the BA program.
[The Bachelor of Science with a Major in Economics emphasizes the study of mathematics and quantitative techniques along with economics. The course of study requires a more intensive background in math and statistics, reflecting the quantitative character of modern economics. This program provides preparation for employment in technical and scientific areas and is appropriate for graduate studies in economics and related fields such as statistics, mathematics and finance.]
UW Economics Department stuff
p.s. my credentials aren't all that astonishing or important when I'm just reciting what is pretty common Economics pablum. It's like talking about supply and demand. I don't really need to be an expert. I can just appeal to a higher academis authority in the field.
