Listened to NPR this morning for the first time in awhile. Here's what I learned.

1. The economy is amazing right now. Gas prices are down, employment numbers are great. We avoided the recession that many predicted would happen. Throw in the Inflation Reduction Act that gets signed today and Biden can't stop winning.
Damn, I never knew that! Must be why bread is $4 a loaf and everything in the store increases in price by the day. The economy is just doing so fucking awesome that stores have to raise their prices! People have too much money!

Let's also continue to ignore the homelessness problem, which has been directly contributed to by covid lockdowns, spiraling housing prices and the shit economy.

People have a lot of currency, but that currency isn't worth much money. That's (hyper) inflation in a nutshell.

Is it time for this again?

Anglos don't use the long scale for large numbers. So, no, that's not "five billion" as you'd understand it.
Which would be:
5,000,000,000 Mark. Or five thousand millions.
Instead, that's long scale billions!
That means:
5,000,000,000,000 Mark. Or five thousand milliards, which are one thousand million each.


Elon Musk currently has a net worth of 253 short scale billions. Let's compare that:
253,000,000,000 to
5,000,000,000,000. That's 5.06% of it.
And those 5 big boy billions bought you jack shit. A box of matches and a pair of worn shoes would get you more.

Buckle the fuck up! :lol:

This whole short/long scale thing is pretty fun. German tabloid press keeps fucking that up, probably on purpose to be more sensationalist.

That's because there are no requirements for being a journo. It may even help being ignorant of absolutely everything.

So are wheels and tamed horses. Carry your groceries on your head, like a true subhuman kang!

Horses are so fucking expensive, dude. If poor people tried to go back to horse and carriage days, it wouldn't work. Horses are more expensive than cars now. The elite plan to remove cars from the working poors and replace cars with nothing. You get a bike if you're lucky. If you're disabled or old then you don't even get that.

I'm guessing their shills and bots got their updates. In the past couple months, I can hardly get on a lot of sites without hearing about "car culture" and how I'm a slave to my car.

Like, bitch, I can visit the next state after work and get home by bedtime. You take two hours to buy groceries.
