>>212776283 (OP)
if you have a finite resource and several ways you can use it you need to decide how to use it
this is called economics

can you imagine how difficult it would be to make something like an airplane without an economy?

>>212776283 (OP)
Getting crops each year reliably

>>212776420
That's advanced economy

>>212776283 (OP)
who's this cutie

>>212776283 (OP)
We've lost the plot and now only care about raising an imaginary line or whatever

>>212776442
wtf is the point of an airplane?

>>212776283 (OP)
about the line that must go up

economy class

i can make wheat and i have eggs and you can make cake. i give you some of my wheat with some of my eggs to cover the cost of the cake (plus maybe a little extra depending on the quality of my wheat and how many wheat and chicken farmers there are)

in exchange you give me the cake

>>212776283 (OP)
to get stuff, shelter and services

If we lived in a serious country the point of an economy would be uplifting the condition of the nation, but since we don't it's about inflating an old person's 401(k) so they can go on endless luxury cruises or something. And producing enough surplus value to enable mass child murder in Palestine.

economy is when some tuskan raiders on the other end of the planet keep killing each other so now my slop is 500% more expensive

>>212776650
so does the economy stop after this?

>>212776283 (OP)
it grows and then uhhhh

>>212776575
Kek

>>212776623
I am betting you wont have enough wheat to make a cake. So im handing out portions of my bet in exchange for wheat.

A planned economy is not inefficient
We just haven't tried it with AI and big data

>>212778549
The problem is the people in charge if AI have no incentive to make the lives of us plebs better. They just want to increase the value of their company stock so they can be rich themselves.

To make the green line go up dummy

>>212776283 (OP)
enslave the goyim

There is no point. Don't listen to the lying bugman itt
None of that shit is real. Your bank account isn't real. it's just numbers on a screen. GDP, not real. Inflation not real. Productivity not real. Incentives not real. Globalization, not real.
It's just like how numbers don't exist either
It's egg heads making up symbols in their head
The only thing that's real is your body with the penis being the center-point of your self

>>212776283 (OP)
to brag about GDP figures on the internet

>>212777234
Eventually we won't need labor to produce anything and we'll spend our days doing nothing but consuming.

the romans didnt have a concept of economy. it was literally just invented so they can keep us down.

>>212778646
Since AI and automatons will replace most jobs, we will need to allocate the goods and services produced by robots through non-market measures. So like it or not, people who own AI will contract with governments to be the resource allocators using advanced alogrithms

Economist Michael Hudson discusses his book "The Collapse of Antiquity: Greece and Rome as Civilization’s Oligarchic Turning Point", and how this history from 2000 years ago is still so relevant to understand our debt-based societies today.

VGH our true purpose

We rely on debt because society is not Favstian enough to fund ventures entirely through equity and government subsidies

>it's different this time
That's what they said in all the bubbles

>>212779228
why?

>>212776283 (OP)
It's kind of a consequence of living in large groups OP. Someone will always want what they don't have, and others may want what they have.

>>212776283 (OP)
A good economy is the foundation upon which all the benefits of society are built. The art, travel, infrastructure, dining, entertainment, the computer you're sulking on. You're salvation will come when you turn that question around and ask 'what is the point of me?'

>>212779705
the economy

>>212778549
What you're expecting isn't going to happen. It will just be an evolved form of capitalism that looks like socialism, but it isn't.

>>212776283 (OP)
Get things you don't have/can't make without black activities.
Mutual black activities lead to things not being produced so people do white actions to exchange goods instead.

>>212776283 (OP)
Unironically to keep people busy.

to serve the aristocrats

>>212779831
