We are about to find out that giving rich people extra money is a really really bad idea.

What I'm learning is that we have to scrap the winter fuel allowance because some pensioners are millionaires, but you can't tax farmland because some millionaires are actually very poor

i have no choice but to believe that trump would be way less appealing if people could afford their rent, if healthcare was available, if they didn’t have to choose between groceries and medication. what’s the alternative?? believe i should scold harder??

That is like Warhammer 40k levels of grim dark. Imagine spending your whole life in grinding poverty under the most totalitarian regime imaginable to be sent to die in a muddy field in Ukraine for incomprehensible reasons.

Currently reading Dmitry Orlov's "Communities That Abide". This passage reminds me of the Amish who started out as a hundred families, are 351,000 persons today, doubles their population every 20 years and every 25 days a new Amish village is founded. Quite a successful exit.

In the UK, international rent seeking is pretty much how we pay our way in the world now - so this is deeply embedded in our economy. At least I'm thick enough not to feel too guilty about working in the city myself...
There is no "misallocation of resources" graver than "guiding some of the most talented towards the unproductive financial sector" And this is exactly what neoliberal free market does.

The absurdity of debt to gdp ratio analysis should be very evident by now but just in case...
I would actually be fascinated to know what UK gdp looks like if you just stripped out rents and oer entirely, especially recently when presumeably OeR has been on a tear given the behaviour of rents, prices and interest rates.

Today is the 88th anniversary of the Battle of Cable Street, when thousands of East-Londoners stood alongside Jewish and Irish communities to drive out Oswald Mosley and his fascists. Never forget: working-class unity can defeat the far right for good.
