Oof

And Lebanon can send Israel back to stone age too unlike Hamas

Yea and why cryptocurrency isn’t money with its exchange rate being determined by how much fiat currencies are entering and exiting.

OK, two cryptocurrencies as legal tender. My point still stands. If you give people a choice between crypto and fiat they will use fiat, even if it’s a foreign currency like the Dollar in El Salvador.

The solution for El Salvador or any other country using a foreign currency isn’t to go with another foreign “currency” like Bitcoin but building their own currency.

El Salvador had their own currency until they gave it up because their leader back then was a US Puppet.

Sole legal tender.

Edit: I dare them to pay all Government employees in Bitcoin, demand taxes be paid in Bitcoin. It would be a funny experiment if it weren’t for mass unemployment and deaths that arise out of a recession.

It would be funny trade wise too. No other country is going to accept Bitcoin as payment for real goods and services. So, the country will have to convert Bitcoin to USD at market price (which can swing wildly) and also hope the market has enough liquidity to handle it.

and because horses are a bit more difficult cw:bestiality, death

ig she didnt wear a mask in those videos

money has to be backed by the state so if bitcoiners really want bitcoin to be used in everyday transactions, i would suggest running for President and replacing U.S. Dollar with Bitcoin for tax payments/legal tender.

how will the state obtain Bitcoins? by building massive resource wasting mining farms which itll have to issue bitcoin bonds to build, making the state subservient to the private bond markets and interest rate it demands, Greek style.

there is massive plague and the economy has collapsed? what will the state do? cant give people money or increase healthcare spending because the capacity of the state to mobilize resources is now limited by what the private sector is willing to give it or how much it can mine. oops mass death.

bitcoiners have to be dumbest creatures alive. these people can’t imagine a pro-Worker Government so they have to come up with convoluted ways to tie the hands of the state so it cant give capitalists free money.

Ukraine’s allegations included unlawful detentions, ill-treatment of civilians, and the suppression of the Ukrainian media and the Ukrainian language in schools.

Yeah Ukraine never did that.

India & Sri Lanka were both in the Non-Aligned Movement and had good ties with USSR/Eastern Bloc. India was the first country where a Communist Party was elected in a bourgeois democracy system. So, Communists had significant influence on the state even if the state itself was aligned mainly with the bourgeoisie. Communism/Socialism wasn’t considered a no-no word in these countries unlike the West.

Economists have long complained about the low labour productivity in Greece – one of the lowest in the EU, while Greek workers already have the longest working hours in Europe compared to the EU.

And the solution to that? Increase the working hours, that’ll make people more productive.

I thought EU was so progressive wholesome chungus 100 what happened

the article i linked mentions this

Even if the service sector is included in GDP, there is a conceptual problem associated with measuring its output, since what constitutes the rendering of a service is difficult to distinguish from what constitutes mere transfer payment. After all, one may derive satisfaction from making a transfer payment exactly as one derives satisfaction from the performance of a musician; how then can we include the one and not the other within the ambit of GDP?

the question is whether service sector as a whole should be measured and included.

i also do not believe prostitution as a service creates no value. what is ‘value’ depends, sex does provide pleasure and it is being done for payment. one could argue art (Paintings, Movies, TV Shows, Games etc) shouldn’t be included either because there is no tangible value being created.

Отлично!

i think it would depend on how its laundered.

if a person pays a sex worker $100 and the sex worker (assuming no middlemen) reports it as just someone friendly giving them money for nothing in return (gift) then that transaction itself won’t be counted in GDP.

if a person pays sex worker $100 and the sex worker runs a nail salon as a front, then that $100 would be counted because the ‘customer’ paid to get their ‘nails done’.

it isnt completely ridiculous. eg. sex workers get paid, sex workers then spend their money elsewhere increasing total demand. its just that it is difficult to measure (double counting issues and all) as the article says.

other countries do it too

there can be ‘legal’ activities which may not be captured in official data too, the informal sector.
