Slept. Exercised. So let’s continue…
Subtitle Differences
Workers, including the owners. When UBI recipients outnumber the GDP, inflation is the last branch left to hang yourselves.
The budget isn't the only payroll, it's not even the most important when you consider the flaws found when we do, or never do, a corruption probe.
Plus I gotta deal with the racist plonkers who think they're the minority. I just ask when you come here, don't bring your cousin who counts to 12 on his fingers. Hehe.
Slot Machine Economics
Where the warlords start robbing a gun store, not quite. Prices up in partnership with simonist newsies isn’t from cash like bartertown or coins like blockchain, but monopoly on the shortage. Welcome to the instructions for the shortage on futureproofing. You could cut out the middleman, ordering online like the new west, or leasing the privilege to rent (before renting) like the ancient east, when stores after robbery become storefronts, the scavengers become predators, like people to armies, like poets to warriors, like pagans to ruins…
The price goes up, the taxes collected are up - if the answer is inflation - the cash is flush, people think about the quantity instead of quality (hard value) and everywhere is a pay toilet. Not exactly what the redistributionists “sought vociferously,” but the market has a way of balance. It’s [current year] and the reaper goes for my enemies.
Rehashing the obvious
They’ll lower some punishments to minimize the statistic, the quick will leave, the strong will fight. Homeland again, the pretty breed, so there’s a glut for a generation, and by the hand of god, not the world’s formerly wealthiest throwing money at smokeless plots to get their family high, and those blacklisters and illuminati are a little of both. Wait, only the stupid are breeding, but damn are they pretty. A simpler time, where a few alphabets, languages, tribes, covens, and a damaged daydreamer hold the world together with brocades of intellect and surgical strike teams.
Printing down the stimulus won’t even wait for the shelves to empty, despite this charity of embarrassments and obligations of benefits.
Cashes to cashes
Resources refined, warehouses filled, cost of production taking a bloodbath, and here comes the magic money. So much to know new specialties connect the network or nations or continents. Try to behave like adults with nuclear weapons, not like escaped politicos going nowhere fast. Where are you going? No idea!
The wildcard is better for some in the fade, making containers with grass instead increases the petroleum supply, making drugs from plants instead pharmaceuticals from petroleum would spare some midnight oil, depending on how lifted you get on your stores. Then you can save gas money getting to your date, fighting underpopulation, and expel carbon, fighting global cooling.
Stimmies buy tendies f’sho.
Stipends remunerate amenities surely.
Flying off the shelves means workers are flying off the handles, buying votes now making resource acquisition a renewed priority, now we’re leaning into war, or the mostly peaceful rioters. Kings (or the real leaders) had messengers, today a phone, they have more prejudice than cause to combat. With nobody selling a moral compass, there’s an asshole in a hole in the ground, and an idiot who can’t tell the difference.
My walls have ears. I’ll be creative with your enemies, as if they were my enemies. I haven’t had any yet, but the big mess is a world. Supposing that they’d avenge me, nobody is avenging the slip into profligacy becoming the institutional derivation. That government is divided like the news coalitions, it’s going to be interesting if you’re a journo.
The menu prices don’t matter to some. Restaurants watch the ingredients, poets watch the color of the water on the ground, the emperor watches Earth. It was interesting watching sanctions fly off the press without a single embargo, and then the borders torn down from inside or outside to save panic buying and disposable income.
Doublet Deja Vu
Credit cards cut from the same plastic, spies of decentralised credit markets and headhunting shortsellers was the duty of cryptojunkies and r/wallstbets, with hoarding on balance sheets and lines of freight ships, if it were a printing problem the network would’ve traded horses for cattle. Thin ice as gov’t burns raisins and dumps milk to drive up the price, again unable to save or stockpile or spread itself beyond the critical faultline. Insomuch, driving prices up, to where the printing press is, some idiot gets to be the hero again, but enough about gov’t. Money transfers faster than promises, but commodities are slower and balance against fuel costs. This is a slowdown for any number of purposes beyond any known reason.
Pricetag You’re It
The representatives pick favorites, long unnewsworthy that everyone has forgotten, rare pricing and beautiful treasures, the signs of prosperity for scoundrels to circle, to pile it in the village, to wear it on display with nothing to lose. The golden rule that nobody can read, the experience of withholding triggers politicians to blame capitalism or to call survival pantries as illegal hoarding. Taxing the middle class out of comfort in the present, killing them in the past.
The wrong price hike and the wrong precautions, don’t worry there’ll be a politician screaming for everyone to be calm when they are, trust goes out the window and bias of news shrinks reports to the best in the past few days, pumping the rumor breaks, and markets say “let’s eat, gamma” …or something.
Don’t put this in a textbook…
Given that people love money it’s probably that we trust people like spending magic money or throwing it on the trending fires. The inflation in waves of sensationalism and reprieves like waning tides less dangerous than deep waters as waves continue, the cause (like the moon) changing its face and position as currents move thoughtless and effortless unless Godzilla and Cthulhu print inflationary hell in the process of saving us, make that movie, don’t be surprised if they make a reboot or sequel by how everyone responds.
