2024 US Presidential Election

[Thumpalumpacus]

16 Nobel prize-winning economists warn Trump's plans would reignite inflation and cause lasting harm to the global economy if he wins in November.

"While each of us has different views on the particulars of various economic policies, we all agree that Joe Biden's economic agenda is vastly superior to Donald Trump," the 16 economists write in a letter.

Fun Fact: Economists don't win a Nobel Prize, they win a Swedish Central Bank Prize in memory of Alfred Nobel which a) the actual Nobel award committee are still steamed over for the misappropriation and do not associate with and b) was created in the sixties because the Swedish Central Bank were getting annoyed with the national government for not adopting their favoured monetarist policies (largely because monetarism doesn't work).

They are experts in their field, but, nevertheless, it perhaps doesn't matter because it seems that people vote for politics over the economy. Like in Britain where voters ignored economists who insisted the UK would suffer from losing free trade with the European Union, and voted for Brexit.

Or Italy’s Giorgia Meloni who denounced consumerism and market capitalism while building a new nationalist movement based on identity—ethnic, religious, and cultural.

Or Jair Bolsonaro who promised returning the country to its Christian past, from which it had been led astray by cosmopolitans, leftists, and minorities.

You can't break economics down into sound-bites. Voters tune it out unless it hits their bank-balance, and then they look for a culprit, which all candidates are happy to provide, to the bemusement of those same voters.

I don’t know if the debate rules allow the candidates to question each other directly. If they do, Biden should ask Trump, ‘Does your probation officer know you’re here?’

What does Jill Stein do between election years?

I don’t know if she’s still practicing, but she’s a physician. If she’s still on the job, she probably spends time between elections giving her patients bad advice.
