Kinda hard to tell because its a common misconception (for people who just read the first book). I hear what you're sayin though

What's really crazy is when you spend a ton of time editing an image because you think the idea is funny and the post goes nowhere. Then you repost some bullshit and it makes front page.

The community seems split on this one lol. Makes me think that some of the people who subscribed to this community literally don't know what a greentext is. Which is nothing new; I made this months ago:

Personally, it takes the fun out of creating OC because I like making edgier memes but there's no community for it here. And even if something does make people laugh and get upvoted, the mods will take it down. (For example, I made a meme about a pregnant alcoholic mother and it got taken down. Like really? We can't make abortion jokes?) So fuck it, I mainly just repost now. If you can't beat em join em.

Complaining about the rules is, ironically, against the rules. I found that out the hard way.

I never said we should have zero debt, that's a strawman. Most economist recommend a moderate amount of debt due to various positive effects (some of which you mention). So the real disagreement comes here:

It’s all connected and that’s why running a deficit, a (relatively) small one, is a good thing.

The implication being that you think the U.S. has a (relatively) small amount of debt. Now, I am willing to be convinced otherwise, but I do not think that the U.S. currently has a small amount of debt. Our debt to GDP ratio is higher than other developed nations, which is concerning.

I do concede that we aren't in danger of a debt crisis on the scale of Greece or Sri Lanka. But ~$34 Trillion in debt needs to be part of the discussion when we keep praising the economy.

SatansMagotyCumFart, are you being intentionally or unintentionally dense?

My experience has been the opposite. Lemmings take everything too seriously.

Though I'm not sure this holds true for dyslexics.

edit: Apparently it's more complicated than the example claims.

That is either a miniature keyboard or a massive bug
