The price question in an eggshell: Jason Furman: When 🥚 prices go up, supply goes up. Me: When 🥚 prices go up, 🐓 do not lay more 🥚. It takes time until more 🥚-laying 🐓 are bred. In the interim, prices overshoot hurting consumers & causing windfall profits. Full story 👇🏽

Scores of people have been showing up on the 🟦 site. But (with few exceptions) the political economy intelligentsia is not there. I'm guessing that the below-average presence reflects the above-average fun we've had on here. But let's face it, that's over. It's time to move.

Proud to say, along with more than 100 Jewish culture workers here in Germany: "the only way of „protecting, preserving, and strengthening“ Jewish life in Germany is to protect, preserve, and strengthen the rights of all minorities." taz.de/Dokumentation-…

Hard to say what “greedflation” means, since no one arguing that profits played a role in the return in inflation uses this term. For sellers’ inflation, it’s enough to keep markups constant when input costs go up. Unit profits go up as a matter of accounting. See ECB table 👇🏽

I have a piece "Taking our Lives out of their Portfolios" in this forum⬇️ in brief: "why are the financial assets of working people in public and union pension funds managed by these extractive asset managers in the first place? How do we take our lives out of their portfolios?"
