Clearly it is Japan. The have Godzilla any further arguments is invalid.Brawl forums debate religion haha
In smash64 we debate which country is the best
Mmm ...I do not know then, that just became a really grey area now that we are factoring everything.All of the above.
Yes, the US is the consumer in this case. But this is the problem. The government is not subject to the market processes that make GDP a valid measure of economic good in the first place.please do so since at this point in my economics education I am Keyne's *****
Also doesn't the US act as the consumer in the case of government expenditures? Is that not the entire concept behind fiscal policy?
I don't know about others, but I'm fine with it not being taught. People would just teach it wrong if they're forced to teach something they don't believe. I'd rather have people NOT treat us like we're stupid.Does anyone here believe that creationism should be taught... ever? I'm wondering if I should make a thread about it.
I highly doubt that, but good luck.So why do you think it helps the economy? I can refute the standard Keynesian nonsense if you want.
So your argument is basically "No you're wrong".Government spending does help with economic recovery, I would probably also say Investor confidence, and consumer perception play an important part too.
Then again this is just Salt water v fresh water economics.
I highly doubt that, but good luck.
Care to name some? It's definitely not enough to make up for the inefficiency.Don't know much about economic theory, but some very profitable and useful technologies have come from government/military projects and research.
Certainly it should be taught in Christian private schools if nothing else. But honestly I don't see a problem with having some information on it in a religions class, even in public schools. Just as long as it's not taught as science.Does anyone here believe that creationism should be taught... ever? I'm wondering if I should make a thread about it.
I don't think I even said that, but yes I do believe you're wrong. But I'm more skeptical you can succeed where Mitlon Friedman couldn't.So your argument is basically "No you're wrong".
You need to explain specifically what you mean here.How about an explanation? How is diverting resources from things people want to things people don't want a good thing?
If we're talking just blind spending into useless projects then all it really does is give a sense of a false recovery. But if the spending targets the issues that are preventing the economy from recovering then it can be very successful. Increasing spending helps with confidence because if investors thing the economy isn't volatile they'll start trading again which lead to a faster recovery.How does government spending increase "confidence" and why is "confidence" important anyway?
Heh. How did Friedman fail in this? Pretty much only Keynesians believe in stimulating the economy through government spending.I don't think I even said that, but yes I do believe you're wrong. But I'm more skeptical you can succeed where Mitlon Friedman couldn't.
The government, in order to spend money, must take it out of the private sector. The government is not very efficient at allocating resources. The private sector is more efficient. So increasing government spending is moving resources from efficient areas to inefficient areas.You need to explain specifically what you mean here.
If there is interest I wouldn't mind a mod moving these posts into a new thread.If you like we could have a 1v1 debate here, probably in another thread though, I hate when good debate topics are wasted in here.
Ok, if the government can target spending into exactly the right areas of the economy, then yes the government can help the economy. But the thing is, they can't. That's why socialism fails. The government is inefficient. The economic calculation problem can only be solved through the market allocation process and price system. The government does not know exactly how much of each thing to produce (which is why the Soviet Union had problems with shortages).If we're talking just blind spending into useless projects then all it really does is give a sense of a false recovery. But if the spending targets the issues that are preventing the economy from recovering then it can be very successful. Increasing spending helps with confidence because if investors thing the economy isn't volatile they'll start trading again which lead to a faster recovery.
I think it was on the 7th. It was on morality so Kalam doesn't enter the picture. Link to debate.When was that?
I hope Harris is better than Krauss, and doesn't argue that nothingness has multiple forms lol.
New debate happening in the smash64 forum:Brawl forums debate religion haha

New debate happening in the smash64 forum:
Does it make sense to be proud of something that you did not choose?
Looks like a Barry Bonds debate is brewing now in the Smash 64 social threadOMG turned into a ridiculous debate about whether free will exists
I mean if it's a private school I don't really have a problem with it but even then I don't think it should be taught. And if we're talking public then no, absolutely not. Never.Does anyone here believe that creationism should be taught... ever? I'm wondering if I should make a thread about it.
How else would it have ended?OMG turned into a ridiculous debate about whether free will exists
