Let me guess you won’t raise the taxes on the rich to pay for it and while continuing to give Ukraine too little support…
Bingo.
That's what I feared about Carney. He's an establishment guy who thinks in terms of the economy. And he can't think outside the box for these things. Gotta keep the rich (his friends) happy.
Neoliberals are the same everywhere. Any virtues of change are artificial.
No, he's got to keep the economy healthy. Funny how the left pretends to be side of science, but never economists because economists science doesn't fit your ideology.
Also tarrifs are a leftist thing, not right wing, Trump and his goons are just moronic POS.
This is incorrect.
You should read a summary of "capital in the twentieth century" , a famous book by an economist that asserts mathematically that taxation of the wealthy is the solution for this issue.
"Also tarrifs are a leftist thing"
This kind of talk helps no one, and asserts something that is practically unassertable. Even if we could split the world evenly in two between left and right and at some point the left were the first to propose tarrifs there'd be so little relation to today as to be useless
economic science is an ideology, it's not rooted in reality. That's why you have new emerging topics like behavioral economics that looks at how humans actually behave.
"Everyone acts in a way to maximise their personal profit" isn't a scientific statement, it's capitalist realism
Economics is a social science like Linguistics, Political Science, Social Work and Human Geography.
It is not a natural science like Physics or Chemistry.
The problem arises when economists, typically "orthodox" ones (the very existence of an orthodoxy/heterodoxy should raise all sorts of flags) demand that the predictions of their models be treated as natural laws, which of course they aren't.
