You buy used hamburgers?

But when do economists mention Net Domestic Product on television? The economics books don't even point out that Demand Side Depreciation is ignored.  We are all just supposed to presume that economists doing this and not telling is fine?

Are you approving of this? I had one PhD economist quit talking to me. This is one factor contributing to screwing up the planet.

Where does the government get its money?

If you are talking about government spending then you are talking about economics. Math is going to apply to economics whether it is conservative or socialist. I am merely pointing out that neither side can do the math.

Lots of depreciation is the result of physics. Physics wears things out. Do the math, or do you lack the brains?

You're moving away from the subject of the thread.

Socialism is defined as government ownership and control of all the means of production. The  original idi0t who created this thread tried to accuse conservatives of calling all government spending socialism. I pointed out that he was wrong.

As far as macroeconomics goes, governments DO spend money. The perfect Libertarian model is for government to spend ONLY for the legitimate functions of government. And libertarians believe in taxation to pay for the legitimate functions of government. Some may disagree as to what is legitimate, and some who lack an education might suggest spending for something that is not legitimate is socialism.

I'm looking more in broad strokes here. As far as lacking the brains, you might want to find the thread that echoes the state of mind you're in, or create your own thread. This thread is not about algebra, depreciation from wear and tear, or physics. This is about a mor0nic accusation from a blue state liberal who has the brains of a gerbil.

That is a lie and he is a LIAR for saying that.

Both Smith and that WSJ writer are DEAD. The times they lived in no longe exist. It doesn't mean necessarily that their theories are wrong. You and other goose steppers continue to push the policies of KKKarl Marx, even as his system has been proven WRONG by history.

When the OP says that I am off topic I will think about it. You can just STFU! Of course with your delusions of intellectual adequacy I am sure that won't happen, so continue entertaining me. LOL

Here's the thing: I'm just offering an opinion here, same as everyone else. I may have a better set of facts than the goose stepping liberals here (mostly because they have NO facts at all) but I proceed on the assumption that we are all debating on the same page, the SAME topic. The stuff you are throwing out there is irrelevant to the topic of this thread (which I'll freely admit is very stupid, not surprising since it was created by a very stupid poster). You may not like that your forays into other topics are irrelevant. You need to know that I sleep wonderfully at night not worrying what entitled, easily triggered, uneducated goose steppers like you feel. In the end, nobody at this forum is losing any money on the deal, assuming this isn't cutting into working hours. (You assume that for the mainstream conservatives here, since the liberals are all on welfare and food stamps and have all the time in the world to shove their bullshit in our faces.) In other words, this place is as important as you are. Which isn't saying much. And your idi0tic temper tantrums reveal a lot about your lack of maturity and education, but they don't make you special.

I sub occasionally for special ed classes in public schools so I know the difference. You aren't special. Just boring.

I’m not an economist, so I’m not qualified to answer.  My understanding is that economists distinguish between durable and non-durable goods.  
 

To be honest, for all I know, maybe you’re onto something which could provide the basis of an interesting PhD thesis. I simply don’t know enough about the field to understand how economists account for the depreciation of durable goods. I don’t know your age or your interests, but maybe you’ve hit upon an opportunity to expand the discipline. 
 

There was a guy named Newton who wondered why nobody had ever defined the formula for how apples fell from trees. Another guy named Einstein wondered why nobody ever explained what gravity actually is. Don’t get infuriated that something hasn’t been studied; you can be that force of change in the world.

In 1976 I read a book: The Screwing of the Average Man by David Hapgood.

That book convinced me that there was something wrong with what I was taught about economics in college. My major was electrical engineering.  So I decided that I was going to figure out what was wrong if I had to read Samuelson's Economics cover to cover.  So I would come home from work and read 15 or 20 pages each evening.  Eventually I got to NNP, Net National Product. It rated half of a page in a 400 page book.

NNP = GNP - Depreciation

Depreciation: Loss of value of capital goods due to wear and tear or obsolescence.

That wasn't complicated so I just continued reading. It was not until I was about 5 pages beyond that I wondered about consumer goods wearing out.

At the time I was working as repair technician for a hi-fi retailer 6 days a week. So having to work on mostly mediocre to crap equipment, sometimes getting stuff that was Impossible to repair because it was stupidly designed, brought the depreciation of durable consumer goods to mind in 1976. So it has been something I have focused on for a while.

It has been something economists have ignored for a while. I suspect that majority of economists have just thought the way the profession trains them to think. Consumer Depreciation does not cross their minds, but I do not believe that they are all that stupid.

I did not learn about Raymond Goldsmith PhD until 2005. He wrote about consumer wealth in the 1950s and died in 1988.

Sometimes I think Russian economists should have figured this out in the 1950s and used it as propaganda against the West. LOL

And certain period in communist russia attempted that.

And many gov'ts have come close and used the principle to essentialy enslave the population. The USSR for most of it's history.

The fact many people say stupid stuff does not in any way support the idea that 'conservatives'  call it 'Socialism' anytime someone gets helped.  And seriously - that is blatantly and observably not true.  The kindest thing you could say is it's a gross exaggeration attempting to make a point (not that it's clear what it is).

Socialism is NOT a political term so much as it is a design of government. There is left wing Nazi liberalism in America. We've seen plenty of that with the blue state inner city ghettos. (Modern plantations for the new generation of black SLAVES for the DemoNazi Party).

America is a Republican Democracy with probably the most prevalent free market economy in the world. A Socialist model would be Venezuela, and pretty soon your goose stepping DemoNazis are going to convert this great country into this.

 

 

THAT'S socialism. It is a form of government that equalizes the misery everywhere.

Sorry kid - you're obviously too stupid for this particular conversation. Try again when we're talking about lego or comics or something

It's a simple fact - when you provide for a man's every need you enslave them.  Has that ever happened? yes.  But more to the point the degree to which you attempt to do so is the degree you're trying to control people

So you mean cars purchased by consumers to drive to work and use the same cars for 3 years or more, those cars are not implements of production?

I am saying that we are playing word games. It does not matter whether a machine is used for production or not. A window air conditioner is added to GDP when purchased. It wears out over 12 years of use. It has to be replaced eventually. The replacement is added to GDP.  The process of wearing out should have been subtracted.

Whether this is under capitalism or socialism is irrelevant. But if planned obsolescence is part of this process then it is very significant. That creates unnecessary work, waste and pollution. I would think that socialists would make a big deal about it.

"Planned obsolescence" is merely a calculation based on the relative profitability of increased quality (higher cost to produce, longer life) vs increased sales due to a lower product cost for lower quality.

All kinds of products. That is a very specific description.

I repaired hi-hi stereo equipment before I switched to computers at IBM. I found it really annoying that working on the System 32 and 34 and Series One were less fun than Tandberg and Pioneer reel to reels and cassette decks.

IBM produced this piece of shit called a Datamaster 23. It replaced the 5100. I had to write my own benchmarks since I never saw the word on any IBM documentation.  I wrote a Bubble Sort and a Prime Numbers program in BASIC.  The old computer was almost twice as fast as the new one on both benchmarks.

I did LAN installations after leaving IBM.
