Comment on JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon says Trump tariffs will boost inflation, slow an already weakening U.S. economy

  it’s called Occam’s Razor, put simply, states: “the simplest solution is almost always the best.” It’s a problem-solving principle arguing that simplicity is better than complexity.

  it applies in most problems, as we sometimes overcomplicate. I make no statement whether this is correct or not in this case, as I am trying to stay out of political discussions and do not live in the US.

  just saw your last sentences and commented based on them 🙂

    There’s nothing simple about divining the intent of the severely mentally ill so what exactly is your point?

      just what you said, only pointed out there is a quote/theory that could apply here.

      often we overcomplicate instead of seeing the simple explanation. the theorem applies to many cases, not just to solve problems.

      I am not saying that the theorem is or isn’t correct here, I was just mentioning it as it sort of fits the last couple of sentences in the comment.

      I did not mean to say anything about this case in particular, just a comment to the simplest explanation/solution is often the correct one.

      I am sorry if this came out confusing or out of context as this was not my intention.

  Varoufakis is not a dumb man. But he is so myopic.

  Which is why his gig as finance minister can be measured in weeks.
