also: giving that money (and equipment including a ton of surplus 90s crap that would otherwise be sold to dictators for pennies on the dollar) to ukraine so they can beat russia and hold back a genocide is the best kind of defense spending that the us has done in decades

rich people like the idea of deflation because they are dumb and have money so it's like "oh my money will be worth more" even though their money managers have all their money in investments that would be destroyed by it

hot take incoming: i think that the account portraying a rich funnyman, who knows a lot about jacking off in front of unsuspecting nonconsenting women but virtually nothing about economics and finance, should stop posting extremely stupid rich-person-whining poo poo couched in incoherent right-wing fIsCAl ReSPonsIbIliTy rhetoric

quick edit: i mean really that account should stop posting altogether, but at the very least it should stop posting this incredibly stupid whining about fake rich-people problems that aren't real

it's the platonic ideal of what they aspire to: getting wealthier because you're wealthy, without even the pretense of it being a reward for channeling your wealth towards profitable investments and thus being part of the social mechanism that (supposedly) ensures efficient allocation of capital. you have a fixed fraction of everything that can be bought, and if everyone else works twice as hard and produces twice as much then the value of that share doubles with no effort on your part

what this means in the wider scheme of things isn't really something they care or think about much

it occurs to me that louis' quarterly estimated income tax payment was due last friday, so he's just acting out like a toddler who got told he can't eat the whole bag of cookies by himself. he's just a little cranky is all, best thing to do is just ignore him and let him tantrum for a while until he burns out and takes a nap or wanders off to go jack it into the nearest potted plant
