True Reaganomics has never been tried.

Well considering the US politicians are rich, have lifetime benefits, and people are working multiple jobs with low pay to live. I doubt any economics program cares for the masses.

Employees are disposable. There's global competition for jobs and the lowest bidders get jobs.

Neither Capitalism nor Socialism care about the masses. Those in power get what they want and the masses are pawns to advance those that rule.

Neoliberalism is rampant through politics.

Your mileage may vary.:catinablanket:

No, we're well past that and into Oligarchy about now.
Didn't reagan cut like 90% of housing subsidies?
And we've had a mysterious housing crisis for decades now?
Probably a coincidence.

What housing subsidies? We have a housing crisis because we have an open border.

Do I get any social credit points if I lick the boots of billionaires and CEOs?

As long you keep gving the board of directors all your money, so they can buy another yatch or nuclear bunker, my guess is yes you can for extra social credit score :steamlaughcry:

Reagonomics is actually a great system, but the elite implemented it incorrectly on purpose to protect themselves and nobody ever caught on :steamhappy:

As opposed to what? Price fixing? Heavy taxes and handouts? Socialist this, that, and everything else and somehow expect the rich to stick around and fund it? If you want lower prices, you need competition, and a huge, HUGE portion of the regulations, red tape, taxes, and other road blocks we have now are built up by politicians to protect their friends and interests at the top of the corporate ladder, creating an absence of the healthy competition that keeps prices honest. Too much government is the problem, more of it isn't the solution. "The rich" that deadbeats like Bernie criticized until he became one is a drop in the bucket compared to corruption in federal bureaucracies.

I always find it funny how entitled westerners have become that they're not content with having a roof over their heads, a bed to sleep in, food on their tables, a car in their garage, 70" TVs with the latest gaming console and a stack of games, the newest microwaves and other cooking gadgets, air conditioning in the summer, reliable heat in the winter, things that only rich people had when their parents were their age, and it some how tears them up inside that, burns at their very souls that there's people in the world that have a little bit more than they do. This is why the west is becoming so weak and culturally, morally bankrupt, where self interests have become the only interests people share.
