NAZInomics, Race & Culture
The son of an old friend is staying in my apartment now. He just got out of jail last April. A lot of his stuff was stored here while he was in jail. I would not try to list every problem. The Repo Crisis is funny, I hate cars, and I have been telling people about planned obsolescence for decades. I asked a PhD economist to explain how an automobile engine worked. He couldn't even start. But he drove a white SUV. I tried getting him to explain consumer Depreciation not being in the Net Domestic Product equation. He quit talking to me. 200 vus .

2008 and 2009? The Repo Crisis is happening NOW and started a year ago.

NAZInomics, Race & Culture
This is the result of an ongoing argument I am having on another forum about economics. ============================== The 2007–2008 financial crisis, or the global financial crisis (GFC), was the most severe worldwide economic crisis since the Great Depression. Predatory lending in the form of subprime mortgages targeting low-income homebuyers, excessive risk-taking by global financial institutions, a continuous buildup of toxic assets within banks, and the bursting of the United States housing bubble culminated in a "perfect storm", which led to the Great Recession. ÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷ Paul Anthony Samuelson (May 15, 1915 – December 13, 2009) was an American economist who was the first American to win the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences. When awarding the prize in 1970, the Swedish Royal Academies stated that he "has done more than any other contemporary economist to raise the level of scientific analysis in economic theory". ÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷ Thanks, it never occurred to me to look up when Samuelson died before. I guess economists do not really consider Adam Smith to be great since he wrote"read, write and ACCOUNT" multiple times and used the word 'education' Eighty Times. Of course mandatory accounting in high schools since Sputnik could not possibly have had an effect on the 2008 Crash. We can never know, Only Speculate. Will the world be better as long as we let economists make sure that we are dumber than they are? Now it is car Repos and everybody complaining about rent. Yeah, listen to economists who have been saying nothing about the depreciation of automobiles for Seventy Years! . 148 views

I thought that at least there would be some discussion. No one even asked me to explain what Linux was and why it would make sense.

Back around 2000 I was on a website called Black Voices. It was actually run by the Chicago Tribune. Also used a few other Black sites. I tried getting a discussion going about Black people standardizing on the Linux operating system. I think I got 3 responses. Now Linux is used on all of the supercomputers around the world. .

PAN-AFRICANISM - FlashPoint: Death of French Neo-Colonialism...Mali Niger Burkina Faso and Guinea Challenge.
Nuclear weapons are mentioned but nothing definite was said. Then they talk about nuclear power and imply that Burkino Faso could make their own. What good is a nuke without a delivery system? Don't they have better use for the resources Funny idea but taking that much loss to cause deception does not seem plausible. I find it difficult to believe that our politicians understand what RISC-V is. Intel and ARM have proprietary machine codes. Anyone using their code has to pay them. RISC-V is like an open source machine code with multiple stages. So simple 16-bit processors up to 64-bit with compatible code can be produced and nobody has to pay anybody. But since it is open source it is outside of anyone's control. The Chinese can do whatever they want. Intel has a problem because their code is so old, from before this RISC business started.

Knowledge, technology and economics. I actually find it amusing to listen to American politicians talking about microchips and RISC-V. Do they really have any idea?

That video starts mentioning nuclear weapons around 11:30. I got tired of hearing Burkino Faso over and over again. It comes across as vague bullshit. Putin is demonstrating the incompetence of the Russian military against the Ukrainians, is he just looking for Black pawns to use against the West? There is always so much talk about economics. What about Adam Smith? He wrote this book *Wealth of Nations.* It has been free on the Internet since 2001. People calling themselves Capitalists have been making a big deal of the "Invisible Hand" for decades but Smith used the term One Time. If you search for 'education' you will find it Eighty Times. I never heard Milton Friedman point that out. Smith also wrote, "read, write and account" Multiple Times. Double entry accounting is 700 years old. Invented in Italy I hear. Every Western country could have made accounting mandatory in high schools since Sputnik. Have you heard any economists suggesting that? "All warfare is based on deception." - Sun Tzu If economics is really Economic Warfare then expect the people claiming to be Capitalists to try to deceive you. Did John Maynard Keynes ever see a television commercial for automobiles? What did he ever say about planned obsolescence? Which of the White countries make accounting mandatory in the schools for the White kids? There are homeless White people in America? No, that is not possible! It is the richest country in the world. How much wealth and power around the world depends on KnowLedge of technology and economics. Is the way White Authority separates accounting and economics really about maintaining confusion? .

No shit! I paid for the waist deep ones. But there are so many minor ones that add up. The problem is finding the right books. I was reading about electronics when I was in high school, not as a result of school. It was what I taught myself in high school not the theoretical never never land stuff from engineering school that got me my first job at Panasonic. What books do Black adults suggest to kids? Then there is negative social pressure from supposed peers. "You are a scholar and a gentleman." Two boys paid me to take their SATs though. They were not friends Teach Yourself Electricity and Electronics by Stan Gibilisco .

Understanding how reality works can help you fix minor problems on your car and get you to work. And replace a faulty light switch in the apartment building I owned so I didn't have to wait for and pay an electrician. I am not into abstract never Neverland bullshit.

Got a link to those statistics? You said: The goal of education is to equip people with enough skills to become productive members of society and stimulate economic growth. That sounds like being indoctrinated to be a good productive pawn. To me being "educated" means understanding how reality works, physically and socially. That means being able to figure out when someone is lying to you. Including planned obsolescence in automobiles along with the physics of skyscrapers. .

So accounting should be mandatory in high schools so people can best serve their own economic interests. Of course this Must bring up PHYSICS because of depreciation. Automobiles are engineering, which is applied Physics. How many people know what a Bathtub Curve is? The reliability and durability of machines can be tested, measured and specified. So the Depreciation rate of individual machine designs should be known before purchase. What happened to the price of the Model T Ford from 1908 to 1926? What would people think about the Twin Towers NOW if Academia had done its job before 2005? .

How many people are killed in traffic accidents in the US every year? 30,000+ That has been happening in the US since the 1950s. That does not count injuries. Do not take my word. How many Americans died in Afghanistan with their mothers believing that a 200 ton airliner could destroy a 500,000 ton building in less than 2 hours? What is EDUCATION?!?!? .
