No, my tongue did not slip.

The "value" of money is dependent upon the existence of the poor.

Remember...

1. The more money there is in a society, the more inflation there is and the more "worthless" this money becomes.

2. Money only has "value" because it is scarce. If everyone had it, it wouldnt be "worth" much.

3. Because money derives its value from scarcity, the "value" of all money is dependent upon others - the poor - not having any money.

4. If the poor had money, money would lose its "value", would have less purchasing power and prices would go up for everyone (amongst other things)

5. Therefore the poor not having money actively benefits those who do. The poor are in those who have money's best interests.

Only IF there is too few goods and services
"too much money chasing too few goods"
is a good definition of Inflation  ;)

is that why communism did not work and capitalism works? 

the leaders of communism can say you are correct and thats they try to reduce the circulation of money in their economy so everyone can be poor to keep the value of money high.  THus, the excuse for stashing away the cash in the leaders pockets!  :P

what's wrong with this is its abstraction...is divorcement from actual facts as cause and effect and effect as cause and cause and effect.......

its like big bang theory..happens just so..no reason..just happens....

this is true for sure!

why?

the Titty government is sartrap and running dog for the global power merchants whose intent is to establish draconian world control..New World Order  of one sort, which means absolute global control in few hands.

but the people of the world must want it, see their security best achieved by such global government.  to this effect the world must be made ungovernable to make the people beg for order of any kind.  in which case the draconian Brave New World would be ushered  by the request of the people of the world themselves looking for security in the extreme conditions now being created globally

so most of the governments in the world are busy fomenting social discord in their own countries.  and the Trinidad government is no exception..regardless of the party is in power.  in most countries the politics have been homogenized into one party regardless of their names and supposed ideological orientation.

a good example of the internal chaos generated in countries deliberately by the government is Germany led by the handmaiden of international banking Merkel.  she is deliberately destroying her country, shaking it to its core  and that can only be deliberate policy to create total chaos... at the end of which will rise up draconian social control to re-establish a social order in the interest of total minority control in a globalized state.

the idea is to breakdown all individual national social norms and replace them by the global state.

that is why chaos is rising everywhere.  it is stage managed chaos.  and to understand it we must understand the quality of politics and politicians that has emerged since the rise of representative government and electoral politics..a system made to order for social corruption.

we can trace from a time when such politics produce many great leaders, to this day when there are only traitors, killers and thieves in occupation of political office, and waiting in wait in the political parties for their turn at being elected to the governments.

the decline from great leadership to the rotten personas like Obama and Clinton, Cruz and the Bushes, to Cameron and Merkel follows I am sure the direct and consistent path of the money corruption of politics...

Today we have only traitors and thieves the very worst social element  now become the powerful dressed up in suits and ties, carrying out their normal behaviors which would have them in jail all things being normal, rather than killing millions the world over.

people like Obama and the Clintons would be in jail and be before the courts on all kinds of criminal charge but for politics which allows such personalities to rise up to the very top of society, because the money power is an exploitative power and needs evil people running the social side of things to get what they want.

so in finessing electoral politics in their interest the money power has made it so that only evil political behavior is rewarded and so that type has flowed into politics and now dominate that game everywhere. people of quality no longer go into politics because they prolly wont get in any more..or if they do they will be assassinated in some way.

its like police forces which by their very organization turn away anyone of integrity from entering..or if the manage to get through drive them out long before they get to he top.  the police forces need only psychopaths up in there capable of doing in routine ways the most extreme things to the ordinary people, the elite wants them to do.  there are types of people who are needed to become cops and the elites has them down pat, select only that type to be cops.

it is now the very same way with politicians. people of integrity must stay away from politics. they will be roughed up and obliterated in politics by the denizens of that trade who are now only riff raff..just like cops of integrity are obliterated by the denizens of the cop forces the wold over who are almost entirely psycos

Ketchim,

Why do you find joy in persistently being derogatory about others.

Clearly it is your insecurity.

I find your nastiness terribly distasteful.

Look at the trend of your threads and posts and my responses.

You are bitter and nasty towards others far away from banter and good taste.

I know you are unable to keep people around you permanently but perhaps lighten up and educate yourself. University education is not for all but it is never too late.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.
