infinite money printing, circular financing between tech companies, the digital panopticon of CBDC + AI + social credit scores coming down the pipeline (only reason the (((rothschilds))) authorized this level of targeted spending), the total disconnect of the numbers to economic sense, the giant stock market bubble, massive 20% YOY inflation which is unreported, the total lack of watchdog oversight (they've been gutted and told to stand down). spaceX IPO is at almost 100x current gross earnings, this is all a clownshow madhouse, where will it end?

Ik you’re not willing to be persuaded on this but have you seen what KFC and Pizza Hut were charging on the 90s? This information is lost to time unless you watch old commercials on YouTube. You basically had to work 40 hours at a gas station in 1998 to buy 2 N64 games, or 5 orders of Pizza Hut. Gen X didn’t complain so we don’t remember it being a problem. Ok now go an Ad Hominem attack when it’s You who are deficient irl imho

You’re too much of a liberal artist to understand this. Gas station employees make a shitload atm. This is how everything should be measured. Gas station wages. Fuck fake wage averages. It was legit impossible for Gen X to afford PS3. Working adults. They couldn’t Afford it.

Also productivity stats are just GDP / hours worked. Technology and deficit spending increased GDP imo. Wonderful Better Workers didn’t get literally more productive.

I may be in rare company on XO in that I enjoy Consuela and Cowgod. Fun to see them have a little back-and-forth.

As much as I feel I understand Consuela's POV on these matters, I admittedly find Cowgod's Gas Station Wage Theory to be extremely useful.

I think a lot of what we are seeing is a gigantic reallocation of wages from do-nothing white collar types to people who actually do some level of work (including working at a gas station.) So some woman / faggot in an office who does multiple Zooms each week to talk about email open rates (or some bullshit) is feeling immense financial pressure (and increasingly trapped) whereas some Blue Collar Bro thinks "awesome, I can afford shit like Zyn and video games" while also wondering when Switch 2 will get some new titles.

The office fag is mad they can't afford a house (because they still conflate home ownership with wealth creation despite how much they claim to hate boomers). The Blue Collar Bro is happy to live in some 2 bedroom duplex rental apartment in an exurb. The former mentally lives in the past. The latter lives in the here and now and is all the better for it.
