Yeah, in the beginning, I made this assumption that, despite her bullshit and naive political views, anyone who could get an econ degree from a reputable university and (allegedly) graduate with any kind of distinction couldn't be technically stupid.
I've since reconsidered my position. -
They will re-elect her. Those voting for her are clearly wowed by her lack of intelligence.

Thanks for the GIF sauce

Maxine Waters is proof you can be a dumbfuck and still be elected to Congress. Maxine holds her seat by feeding her voters just enough hate whitey rhetoric coupled with the soothing balm of "you're a victim" oratory.Bendintheriver said:They will re-elect her.

Trump has predicted that AOC will beat Schumer

She probably could. That would be a fun race. Do you think NY voters love Schumer?RaceBannon said:Trump has predicted that AOC will beat Schumer

No and NY is going off the deep end tooSFGbob said:

They will give official driver's licenses to illegals which means citizens from NY will no longer get to partake in pre screening for security because the law closes the data bases for border control and ICE

In hindsight, I think I was influenced by a few pictures of said ta tas and was thus incapacitated.PurpleThrobber said:

I’m saying Econ profs enjoy titty fucking as much as the next guy. And a little quid pro grades never hurt anyone.creepycoug said:

Yep, you know the game is rigged when a lowly bartender can get elected to Congress. Nothing screams lack of opportunity like that.

She looked pretty damn hot in that video of her dancing.creepycoug said:

She also looked happy. Now, not so much.

Was rushing here to report thisGrundleStiltzkin said:
My headline was
AOC admits that 60 years of Democrat policies have had no effect
The comments are great

And how does she should propose we fix it? Our system, when run perfectly, provides the opportunity for anyone to achieve greatness and wealth. The opportunity. Not the end result. Dumb bitch.RaceBannon said:

Here's the thing, there are a TON of questionable "economic" degrees out there and this is problem #1 why the subject isn't taken very seriously. There's also lots of games with wording "political economics" "philosophy and economics" "arts of economics" etc.creepycoug said:Yeah, in the beginning, I made this assumption that, despite her bullshit and naive political views, anyone who could get an econ degree from a reputable university and (allegedly) graduate with any kind of distinction couldn't be technically stupid.

Then there's the wholesale politicisian of and movement Left of academics where asinine and obsolete philosophy's are given just as much or more platforms as "legit" science. The fact that you can go get a marxist econ degree is fucking laughable and only possible bc of non econ admins making it so.
#1 question I'm looking at, is it a science or art degree? If it's the latter it's slightly better than a business degree at best and could be worse depending on the competitiveness of the program.
#2 is it anything other than a "bachelor/masters/phd of science in economics" or some other marketing name splashing economics to sound better? I'm looking at Robert Reich who likes to call himself an economist despite only having a master's in philosophy/politics/economics from oxford where he read 2 books on Keynes and 20 by Marx and nothing from Hayek.
#3 what program is it and where is it? Is it a science school? Do they engage in serious economic research or just have a teaching program etc. Plenty of people who couldn't hack it in real economics that then go become professors at liberal arts colleges because they say things "right" politically.
I digress, plenty of retards can sleep, cheat, or fuck their way through a program even if it is a good program and that goes for lots of subjects.
Tldr black eye for economists imo. -
I have an Econ degree but which gave me some analysis and mathematical modeling ability, but over the past 3 decades I have spent my reading time with 100s of Econ books by a variety of authors. I even dug if my Marx/Engles reader.UW_Doog_Bot said:

I'm sure by now it's easy to tell where I come down on the subject.

Economics is a great degree if you can stick to the basics and then make verifiable hypotheses. If you wish to ignore the relationship of supply and demand - you are a failure. If you think that a centrally planned economy will outperform a free market, you are a failure. If you are Paul Krugman with a Nobel Prize who thinks that increasing tax rates and regulations on the private sector will grow the private sector and if you think that subsidizing sloth will decrease sloth, you are a failure. AOC is an economic disaster from confiscatory taxation to the nude green deal and massive amounts of new free sh*t. She was negatively educated at BC.

Econ was dumb so I switched to finance.

I agree with 97.5% of that.UW_Doog_Bot said:

I think the "Bachelor of Arts" and "Bachelor of Science" distinction is oversimplification, as is the comment about LACs (which usually grant the BA, not the BS). It really depends on which one. I have a kid who's going into a PhD program in Maff who did her macro and micro intro econ classes at her LAC and reported that it was pretty challenging. Of course none of the maff they were ever going to throw at her in econ would make her flinch because she's the kind of person seeking a PhD in math. That said, she was physics major, which is ostensibly hard, and with that as more background than you need, when that kid says a class is hard you can take that to the bank. While I can't know how she'll fare out in the real world, she's always been very good at school. Add to that that a disproportionate number of PhDs come from LAC undergrad backgrounds, one reason for which I suspect is that in the LAC environment, you have to write, which is a good means of testing if people really know what they're doing.
All that to say, a kid getting an undergrad degree in Econ at Middlebury or Williams or that kind of place has been through a tough program and is well prepared to do more econ. -
Here's an even better example of that. This genius held office from 1993 to 2017 until she was caught doing what democrats do best and jailed.SFGbob said:

She's a 6.5, but sadly I've done some dumb shit for 6.5's a few times in my life, so wood, but just a pump and dump thing (and titty fuck of course)..

It's racist to call blacks who are clearly idiots, idiots. Btw, that video is a huge indictment against the college she claims to have attended.Southerndawg said:
