    The title itself is an act of gaslighting.

    I’m gonna take a position for this comment that is a harder line than I usually would take on economic issues: if the consumer is not able to consume at the same rate because prices are going up faster than wages are, then the flow of money is not “good” as conventionally idealized in “the economy.”

    Thanks for the heads up Buffalox. Edited to finish the thought. Cell tower fuckery made it look like I had lost the comment.

      I think it should be clear that what he means is like the famous quote: “Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?”
