Oddbean new post about login | logout whenever someone tells me that a rising national debt is a sign of a booming economy, I accelerate the narrative “yeah 1 trillion in interest expense is good but man I can’t wait till we get to 10T. Or 100T. gonna be so bullish when we hit that” let’s push it until the argument collapses under its own retarded weight
Common sense is not that common
Sadly very true

Nothing stops this train
I warned my friends when they were excited to get "free" stimulus checks from the government. I said, "Nothing is free, and this will only lead to more inflation." Now I say, "The only reason we're poor is because we need more stimulus checks! Without stimulus checks, how will we battle the inflation?!?" I bought BTC. They bought new TVs. Now I could buy 10 TVs for what theirs cost.
Embrace and amplify. Very effective technique.
