ALL CRYPTOCURRENCY BOOSTERS ARE VERMIN IN THE EYES OF MORBO
NUMBERS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY
If one actually believes that wages went up, and doesn't understand that they did not go up despite the actual numbers increasing, already a lost cause.

PATHETIC HUMAN ECONOMIST

MORBO HAS EYES AND CAN SEE IN THE DATA THAT ECONOMIC INDICATORS AND ECONOMIC SENTIMENT HAVE DIVERGED

MORBO DEMANDS A BETTER EXPLANATION THAN BLAMING JOE BIDEN
anyway as someone who actually is an economist unlike sky who is just mad at leftists and wants to settle scores - vibecession is a lie told by biden consultants who want to normalize the democratic party doing nothing to help poor people after 2024.

people were mad about rising interest rates.

MORBO DEMANDS YOU OPEN A DICTIONARY
Trump implemented neoliberal economics. That's obvious.

I hate that even the educated like Will will misuse the words technocracy and technocratic frequently.

Some of you genuinely don't know there are zero technocracies in the world and some of you support an actual technocracy.

YOU DO NOT YET KNOW THE DEFINITION OF “MEANER”

MORBO WILL SHOW YOU
BREAM: The Bureau of Labor Statistics says inflation is now outpacing wage growth. How do you answer that concern?

HASSETT: That's a technical matter. Personal income includes things like transfers and food stamps that we have been reducing as part of our effort to make government leaner and meaner

MATH DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY
I don't know anything abou the specific data sets being cited, but I do know math. It is absolutely possible for both claims to be true, i.e., the median could be $8k, and the majority of values in the data set are below $1k. Happens routinely in skewed distributions.
May 28, 2026 at 2:49 PM
TERMINAL VALUE DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY
What kills me about degrowth messaging is that people hear "degrowth" and think their personal bank account is going to shrink. In reality, due to our society's insane inequality, redistribution can make almost everyone *much much richer* regardless of whether overall GDP goes up or down.

ELIZABETH WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?

KEVIN WARSH: Uhm, we try to keep politics if I'm confirmed out of the Federal Reserve

WARREN: I'm just asking a factual question

WARSH: I believe this body certified the election

WARREN: That's not the question I'm asking

THE FEDERAL RESERVE DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY
Hassett: "Imagine if oil prices start going back down because the situation resolves itself somehow, they you could be looking at an inflation close to zero. That's something the Fed needs to pay attention to."

MORBO DEMANDS TO KNOW WHERE ON PLANET EARTH THE POVERTY LEVEL FOR A SINGLE HUMAN IS $138,000
Incredible take. You clearly think minimum wage means "the minimum I can get away with paying someone legally." The poverty level here for a single person is $138k but you're outraged someone working full time makes $40k? That oligarch's never gonna fuck you bro no matter how much you lick his boot.

If Columbia were to provide less coffee (some producers only sell through a lottery) due to Trump’s newest tantrum, the pain to Americans will be real. Folks are gonna be jonesing for a coffee fix, feeling more and more like a king and a coffee tax.

MORBO THE ANNIHILATOR HAS FOUND HIS SECOND CAREER
About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

How bad are tariffs going?

I paid for $32 of shaving cream from Canada. Unique stuff I’ve used for years, nothing like it in US. Small family business.

UPS guy came to my door today with box and said I have to pay additional $120 before he can hand it to me.

That makes it 5x more expensive!!! 🤯
