I think its because deflation is when the money supply is contracting and less debt is being created, so asset values begin to be valued at their actual value instead of their inflated nominal value, and people are no longer encouraged to attain the cantillon effect that drives up asset values.

Which an inflated nominal value then causes more consumption via the wealth effect, and the misallocation of capital known as the business cycle, that requires bailouts via money printing in order to debase people on fixed income which provides riskier debt issuance and more innovation.

Is that why my if statements don't work properly?

Now we can export our chip production to China as well, just as we did all the other high paid union jobs.

I like a BeOS style vertical taskbar with window names. Neither of them do it well.

Not to mention DRM. They want to own your computer and prevent any kind of modification so that movie producers give them money.

The way I see it orchestrated by Trump is if the tariffs stay on manufacturing many provinces will be wiped out. Carney will then provide a bailout using funds from Alberta, whose exports will increase due to a devalued Canadian dollar and a 2.5x lower tariff on their higher margin product.

Which itself is a gimmick, they've just made the gates taller, electron leakage would happen otherwise.

Well I've just read Afd supporters posts about immigration. As far as being good or bad for the economy, I guess it depends if you hold assets that get inflated.

A landlord will definitely benefit, and that will definitely grow GDP; which left leaning people used to care about the poor rather than worshipping at the god of GDP. The fear of their own kind calling them a racist may have defeated that.

Destroy the poor, and maybe the fallout will fix the repercussions. Is that the plan then.

She lives in the woods and scavenges for pine beetles and bark for nourishment. She really cares, and she isn't being groomed to be a politician who gets kickbacks for green washing.
