BRICS admits Saudi Arabia, Iran, UAE, several other nations.
Moonbox replied to sharkman's topic in The Rest of the World
Because a collection of Islamic fundamentalist, communist, and kleptocratic dictatorships are totally going to cooperate smoothly with each other and suck demand out for the USD. India and China? Not friends. Iran and Saudi Arabia? Straight-up enemies. It's going to work out great. -
Wagner mercenary boss Yevgeny Prigozhin killed in plane crash
Moonbox replied to BeaverFever's topic in The Rest of the World
They've done nothing but lose territory since then. ? You, on the other hand, are cheering for communist and fundamentalist islamic dictators and their new world order. ? -
a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. d. While the impact of these programs on the output gap is large, the empirical impact of the output gap on inflation is modest, leading us to estimate that government transfers account for around 0.45 percentage points of the rise in inflation we have observed since the end of 2019. Dumb dumb dumb.

Another blow for freedom of speech in Canada
Moonbox replied to blackbird's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Easy logic. When the courts don't do what you want them to, they FAIL, and when they do something you agree with, they do GOOD WORK. -

Jordan Peterson has been a joke for close to 10 years now. Pierre Poilievre doing a video with him couldn't be less interesting or surprising. -

I for one am absolutely shocked that another one of Putin's opponents had a totally-unfortunate-totally-accidental death. ? -
Just saw this post, hahaha. What a bunch of total out-of-your-ass made-up nonsense. a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. https://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/about/economics/economics-publications/post.other-publications.inflation-reports.causes-of-inflation--december-5--2022.html

Oh I see. The psychology field is a "mess" unless the psychologist in question repeats your viewpoints back to you. That's par for the course from blackbird. Thanks for the chuckle. -

Most of Freud's work has been debunked and it's only taught as history, rather than going theory. Regardless, you're presenting a pretty confused argument. Jordan Peterson's credibility hinges on being a psychology professor (at least in name), but if the profession is an irrational mess, as you seem to suggest, doesn't that just make him just another ape making noises? -

Yes. He should. He stopped being a credible psychologist about 7-8 years ago or more, when he sold out his intellectualism to make money off peddling outrage to losers and incels. He keeps his academic credentials so these losers can say, "LOOK! A PROFESSOR who agrees with us!" but he's an utter embarrassment to the College. -
They're not out of date figures, lol. They cover the time period when we experienced most of the inflation. You've been squawking that over half, (or more specifically 3.00-3.5%) of 2022's inflation was Justin's fault, but the economists say that over 85% of it were from global/external factors. That's the truth, however inconvenient it is for your clueless narrative. They don't make your made-up bullshit any less made-up. ?

Longer history of progress? It took Japan less than a century to go from the Shogunate to being able to humiliate Imperial Russia and China. China's progress feels very familiar, it just happened later.

Umm...Japan?

The data is from end-of-year 2022, and all it does is clearly show how clueless all of your squawking has been. Once again: Clueless bullshit, because: a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. Asking questions about immigration doesn't make you any less embarrassingly wrong. ?

I know that 50% + 35% > 50%, which is weird because you said: Who is having math problems here? ? a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. https://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/about/economics/economics-publications/post.other-publications.inflation-reports.causes-of-inflation--december-5--2022.html

The beauty of the Scotiabank report is that you can't hide behind your usual vague hand-waving. Not only do they minimize the impact of transfer spending from stimulus etc, they also specifically explain 85% of inflation from Dec 2019 to Dec 2022 was from global factors and supply chain bottlenecks. ?
-
The link was from December 2022, muppet. As of Dec 2022, Scotiabank (who you brought up, funny enough) had this to say: "government transfers account for around 0.45 percentage points of the rise in inflation we have observed since the end of 2019." If you have something relevant and specific to counter this, post a link and a quote that supports it. Nobody's interested in reading your longwinded pseudo-economic bullshit. ?
-
You posted three links, none of which supported your claim. ? It's official, but you can't present anything that says so. ? but here's what scotiabank actually said: a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. d. While the impact of these programs on the output gap is large, the empirical impact of the output gap on inflation is modest, leading us to estimate that government transfers account for around 0.45 percentage points of the rise in inflation we have observed since the end of 2019. https://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/about/economics/economics-publications/post.other-publications.inflation-reports.causes-of-inflation--december-5--2022.html So yet again, you're caught cluelessly bullshitting. ??
