You would know more about real world economics by studying the history of late 19th/early 20th century labor movements in the United States than whatever you think passes for “economic literacy”
Yeah, why study a science when you can cherry pick some parts of history and spin them how you want. The gilded age never had any rent seeking, lobbying, or judicious use of imminent domain. JFC.
Oh wait, shit, I've actually read Marx, Keynes, Rawls, and a whole host of other 19th and 20th century philosophers, economists, and historians.
I'm sorry the UW education system isn't skewed liberal enough for you.
And yet you still espouse a political ideology with fantasy solutions that only result in private individuals and corporations accumulating more wealth and power over the rest of us. But as long it’s not the “state”.
So your not a private person who can accumulate more wealth? Get a better job. You are free to work two jobs. Many have and many do.
Getting ahead is you fucking job not your fellow citizens. You think it's ok to take their hard earned money and live off the sweat of their brow.
You want a political system that has murdered more than 100 million people. I won't allow it. Get your revolution hat on I'll be on the other side. Make it brightly colored. Crosshairs show up better.
Wow I wonder why Wal Mart isn’t voluntary paying their thousands of workers better than minimum wage then.
They already do. You just swallow like a bitch every AOC talking point she feeds you don't you dumbfuck. Federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour. Walmart's entry level wage in all states in $11.00 an hour and of course if they are operating in a state that has a higher MW they pay that wage.
Wow I wonder why you swallow like a bitch?

You'll notice that like most all leftists after he stated that line of crap and was shown to be a fool he runs and hides and acts like he never said it.
Mother fucker just swallowed like a bitch the talking points that were fed to him.
The synthesis of his economic beliefs is when the government does something it’s socialism. Any market intervetion is the “socialist playbook”. What a fraud.

Are you this dishonest and pathetic with all of your social interactions or are you just treating us all to this behavior? Why did you lie and claim Walmart doesn't pay the minimum wage?

I'm trying to be balanced here, because I am a default free market person. I do not think that is an accurate description of @UW_Doog_Bot 's political-economic philosophy. The government does some things well, and by "well", I don't mean that there are goods and services that they produce and deliver with any economic efficiency, but rather that they are the actor in the best position to reasonably offer the good or service. But to deny that the government fucks things up on the norm is to be intellectually dishonest. Again, that doesn't mean I don't see a role for the guv. For example, I'm a supporter of public education, but it's as flawed as all get-out. Still, we need it, in my view. I don't think @UW_Doog_Bot is necessarily antagonistic to that view all the way around.

@UW_Doog_Bot is what you call a lower case "L" libertarian as opposed to 2 silver dollar, crack pot Libertarian. Funny enough, my first exposure to 2 silver dollar, crack pot Libertarianism came from one of my parents best fren's who lives about 5 mins down the road from Mr. Bot. The guy's daughter basically runs the home schooling community in the OC.

Point of fact, I'm actually a moderate liberal as the economics spectrum goes(I've even been accused of being a neo-liberal, gasp!). My default preference is freedom and by extension, free markets. That's Radical American thinking I know but I actually do believe in market intervention as well. It can be summed up pretty simply as "If having the government involved can avoid greater negative externalities then government intervention is justified." Of course, within the bounds of the Feds enumerated powers.(Statists don't understand this point at all)
The simplest example is defense, having private armies that can be bought and sold could lead to a coup by the highest bidder. This is a greater negative externality than the inefficiency, corruption, and other negative consequences of central planning. Therefore, government intervention is justified.
Education, the Fed, R&D, Defense, Environment, Finance, Antitrust, Labor laws, even the god damn postal system, there's plenty of intervention I agree with. That doesn't mean that it's efficient, just that there are other factors I consider beyond pure Economics to justify intervention.
Free Markets are more efficient than central planning(which includes both the pure definition of socialism and lesser forms of intervention such as democratic socialism etc.) If you can show me, with empirical evidence, that a central plan is more efficient, or has a significant other non-economic consideration, then you can change my mind. That's part of being dedicated to a science and not an ideology, being able to consider new evidence and change ones mind and beliefs about the nature of the world.

I'm not even really a lower case libertarian. I believe in too many radical concepts like the EPA, education vouchers, the FED and economic policy, National Parks, the supremacy of federal law guaranteeing civil rights, the universality of human rights and our responsibility to help support them around the world, national borders, etc.
I'm more like the forgotten part of the GOP when they were still into environmentalism but also limited government. Or the forgotten part of the 90's Dems when Bill started crossing the isle maybe? Not sure, I don't really fit too many places easily. Very few economists do. Maybe I can fill out a questionnaire for you and with your superior historical knowledge you can tell me what party of what era I belong to.
I can tell you I'm on opposite axis from communists and fascists!

There is no axis where communists and fascists are on the same side.
Fascism is a relativey young ideology but in every instance it took power, Hitler, Franco, Mussolini, and later Pinochet, of central importance was the restoration or preservation of capitalism and the social hierarchies it created from challenges to the left. The avowed socialist Allende was the freely elected president of Chile. How authoritarian.
Again, you default to “big government” is one side of the axis and “free markets” is the other. Total ahistorical bullshit.
