nah even the successful / well educated are like this
even ones who literally work in finance are like this. they dress it up in fancier terms about the "fiscal and monetary environment" or whatever
i think even ray dahlio is pushing standard-fare XO "money printing bad" shtick and he's a multi-billionaire hedge fund manager. he's literally peddling gold bars like a snakeoil salesman. it's strange.

you spent 3 years bemoaning the conspiracy/fraud of tether, never once shutting your little yap about how you want to get to the bottom of all this and finally know the truth.
i then posted a simple but slightly-above-100-IQ explanation what i think is going on, which several other posters supported, and you simply replied "interesting theory, but 'complex' finance is beyond my paygrade."
you then went back to running your yap about "hey are there any good investment opportunities?" and motor-mouthing about various other frauds and scams in the world that you *seem* to want to know the truth about, but really it's just you yapping to yourself like a chihuahua dog.

XO is stupid about many things, but you aren’t exactly bringing intelligent discussion on this topic, just aggressive contrarianism.
Explain why history is wrong. Dalio gets into the history in his screeds, which you attempt to casually dismiss as “snake oil.”
History has shown that parabolic monetary printing will result in an eventual loss of faith in that particular currency. In fact, every fiat currency throughout history has eventually failed. Conversely, gold and silver have always been used as a store of value.
Given these facts, it seems pretty logical and not “stupid” to conclude that unlimited $$$ printing is a bad thing. You’ll need to present some form of case or reasoning apart from aggressive contrarianism

i'm not try to bring an intelligent discussion because i think that would be stupid when you can just google the thoughts of academic economists and central bankers. i literally am just trying to be a contrarian faggot here in my humble space on xo to posters who are being conspiratorial queers: "Explain why history is wrong!"
if you want a high-level reason why, it's because not all money printing is the same. money printing of the past was never conducted under the direction of sophisticated central banks staffed with modern economists coordinating across multiple countries with the deep structural benefits afforded by Global Capitalism.
any attempt to characterize the sophisticated operations of the present day with those in the past is being gravely ignorant of all developments in economics/finance of recent times. it's like saying "well this [abstract policy direction] didn't work with the state of knowledge and technology we had in the 1700s, so of course it's not going to work now."

LTM does raise a good point that velocity has acted as a counter-weight to all this. The problem with this perspective is that we have no guarantee that V will remain at this depressed levels indefinitely. Hell, there is a lot of debate about what is causing it to stay this low in the first place.
If/When V does go up, we have ZERO mechanisms to rapidly shrink the money supply in an orderly fashion to offset things without plunging the economy into a crises. If you are going to offset one variable with another, you better be able to reverse course if the trend on the original variable changes.
Another issue here is that interest rates are a price. Just like you have the price for bread or cars or surgeons. Keeping the price of time-value low completely screws up the market's ability to allocate capital and for individuals and companies to figure out the right debt/savings mix.
Finally, you keep citing smarty pants economists as an appeal to authority instead of making a substantial argument yourself. There is a reason that nobody takes macro economists seriously: they are always wrong. The track record of that crew being unable to head-off any of the previous economic cycles should tell you that you can hardly trust them when they say they know better this time.

velocity is down, at least in part because much of the money-printing has not been reaching the hands of consumers. as i said before, not all money-printing is the same. this should be obvious, but is purposefully elided by simplistic scaremongers.
if velocity begins to go up and inflation begins to rise, then simply raise interest rates. what is the problem here? as of now, inflation is not expected to rise and has not risen in the entire last decade of "irresponsible money-printing"
a broken clock is right twice a day. i know you'll gleefully cheer on the next recession, but you goldbugs are consistently wrong and history shows this. modern economists are much more right than they are wrong, since they have kept the modern economy afloat (and thriving) for so many decades despite taking us off the gold standard and racking up an enormous debt bill. yet you guys never acknowledge this. you never acknowledge that your yearly calls for collapse are wrong, you never acknowledge that for the most part, the modern system works. you just gleefully cheer on each cyclical recession and resume calls for apocalyptic collapse.

"as i said before, not all money-printing is the same. this should be obvious, but is purposefully elided by simplistic scaremongers"
Yep. Agreed on all points. Using the simplistic "money printer" example, if the printer is printing a ton of money, but, because of the way the economy is structured, within seconds virtually all of it ends up in the hands of Jeff Bezos who parks it in vault to be saved and spent by Jeff Bezos the IX in his expedition to Jupiter in 2150, there ain't no inflation happening up in here.
What's also annoying about the inflation-mos and goldbugs is the hyper-focus on some unlikely problem that may come about in the future (inflation) without any regard for the very serious and pressing problem in the now. Like you said, inflation would have to be addressed if there are signs of it. But to do nothing as GDP contracts, aggregate demand sinks, and unemployment skyrockets, all because of a fear of inflation is preposterous. They're unwittingly serving the mega-rich who are deathly afraid of any policy (especially fiscal) that would address income and wealth inequality.

yes, i don't trust economists. real wages for average americans peaked in the 1970s and have been declining ever since. under their leadership we've shipped most manufacturing jobs to china and allowed them to become an economic & political rival to the US (which will soon surpass us). our economy is completely gutted. it's clear these economists serve a small minority of very wealthy people who benefit from the rape of this country. that you think we can survive longterm as a service economy is a joke.
re: your second paragraph, yeah i'm conscientious but don't know what you mean by that
i doubt you have any friends irl. your overwhelming urge to sneer at whoever you talk to must be radically repelling irl

" i'm very much open to considering your point of view ITT and elsewhere, as long as you aren't appealing to authority"
ah yes, i should take it upon myself to explain how the entire fucking economy works from the ground up, in my own words.
but last time i wrote more than a brief soundbite about a small crypto technicality, you protested it was "beyond my paygrade"
makes sense. really seems like you're in pursuit of new ideas and your mind is open to being changed lol

"really seems like you're in pursuit of new ideas and your mind is open to being changed lol"
i said i was open to your theory but havn't given it much thought, as it dovetailed with my thoughts to stay away from crypto. i don't fully understand how derivatives work and it seems like it would take a significant amount of time to learn when your conclusion already matches what i think about it. do i need to delve into something deeply every time you have a brain fart?
"ah yes, i should take it upon myself to explain how the entire fucking economy works from the ground up, in my own words."
yes, someone who understands a subject well should be able to explain it as if talking to a 5 year old

the problem is that there can only be 1 world reserve currency, and every previous transition has involved a clear up-and-coming power taking that mantle.
so if it's something imminent that's going to happen in our lifetimes, what is the new up-and-coming power going to be?
again, china?
