Reagan was a Keynesian! lol

Domestic spending has nothing to do with whether Reagan was a Keynesian or not. But I'm glad you found your one piece of data to cling to, because it's not pretty when you look anywhere else, lol.

MT is doing just fine.

We're just here to laugh at you - comedy is the only thing you're good for.

"Reagan was a Keynesian"

"mainstream economic thinking"

"smart people think like me"

"I'm very, VERY educated"

"the retard bar" (basking in the glow of your paltry 75 self-identified "climatologists" lmao)

You're definitely that rare breed of dumb AND arrogant, which means you'll be Stuck on Stupid forever!

:laughingb

If you think MT is doing just fine he has major problems. And the funny thing is you think 75 climatologists who produce 50% or more of their research on climate change is "paltry". How many of those do you think exist? Lol. You are fucking retarded.

"Climate science" is a loose term, seemingly designed to fit a political agenda.

The answer to your question is well over 30,000.

And if you widen the definition to include astrophysicists, atmospheric chemists and glaciologists and the like, you could probably add another 50,000 on top of that.

But hey, congratulations...you found 75 "scientists" (out of 10,000 solicited) leeching off government grants to agree with you.

"smart people think like me" lmfao

"I'm a data guy!!"

(except when the data goes against my radical agenda, then I'm a insult guy!)

Yes 75 out of 77 climatologists who produce over 50% of their peer-reviewed research papers believe in climatology. To smart people, that is significant. That's why smart people think like me and you use emoticons and act like a child.

You started the conversation off with "Sorry, champ, this is the real world not Berkeley.".

I don't see how anything I have said is any different than this level of commenting.

You are confident in your thoughts, that's all I can say. Is there any data backing up your theory, absolutely not. What I talk about is mainstream economic thinking throughout the world and you are trying to lecture me using some economic theory that is pretty much a joke in the world of economics. So, I apologize if I come off a little argumentative, but your theory is very much aligned with the thought process of many on this forum who I think are some of the biggest retards I've ever met. You seem much more capable of understanding different viewpoints.

I just didn't get that from your argument. It just amazes me that some of you guys actually think you know more than the entire world of economists. Just like arguing Global Warming with these guys. They know more than the entire world of climatologists. It's just a trend of the retard bar (not saying you are including in that), but it's just what I have to deal with.

There is no empirical evidence, math, logic, etc that shows Austrian economics would work. It's pretty much an anti-government philosophy that requires low level of thinking.


Yeah sure there is interesting data that I don't expect to alter your opinion but you may find interesting. The link I've attached has the charts. Don't know how to post the charts from my phone.

Click on the link in that article. The study was by Anders Aslund. They just charted data based on the study.

I already read it. It's the common way conservatives/libertarians try to con people. You'll notice the X-Axis is "% of Potential GDP". It's the same situation I had with Acebb who was arguing "Spending as a % of GDP". That has nothing to do with Keynes or Krugman. They want large increases to Government spending, not large increases to % of Potential GDP. That's a con game and it basically shows what common sense would lead you to believe. It's just basic math.

For instance, just to show you guys how foolish these % of graphs are. The diamond mark on the bottom left is Greece. What the deception is, is people are using this to argue against Keynes or Krugman or anyone who understands what they are talking about. Even though the truth is... see below.

Greece has implemented some of the largest austerity measures of all. So the most ironic things about those graphs, is they support my theory more than Austrian theory. That's why Tyler Durden and that clown show of a site is ridiculous. Just nothing but trying to con people. That's why I stick to real sites with real educated people that care about economic theory and not about political ideologies. That correlation is meant to mislead people in to thinking "higher deficits" mean higher government spending. When in reality basic math would prove that assertion is neither right or wrong and is completely dependent on both variables.
