- Comment on Russia Faces a Wave of Bankruptcies as Borrowing Costs Skyrocket - The Moscow Times 1 week ago:
The Central Bank has progressively raised rates since the second quarter of 2023 in a bid to control persistent inflation and support the faltering ruble. However, the soaring cost of borrowing is now pushing many companies toward a dangerous debt spiral, with interest payments consuming one out of every four rubles they earn.
Ridiculous they are still keeping that 21% rate, it was somewhat understandable for the first few months after Feb 2022 to reduce capital outflows but they should’ve lowered it soon. Really goes to show that they have the same brainworms western central bankers have on interest rates being a tool to control inflation.
Thing is, in the west, the rates were never this high to cause such carnage (other than under Paul Volcker). Central bank ‘independence’ and its consequences.

- Comment on How a broke Argentine province is countering Milei's deep austerity cuts 5 weeks ago:
After entering office in December 2023, Milei swiftly imposed his shock therapy in a bid to reverse decades of budget-busting populism that ran up Argentina’s monumental deficits.
“budget busting populism” aka Thatchers TINA nonsense. Never mention the external debt.

The real budget will end up being a fraction of what’s needed and most of that’ll end up in capitalist pockets.

UK sounds desperate for any revenue to show a lower deficit %. It can’t increase revenues by raising taxes so it does silly shit like this.

yes but hackers have to use existing cpus, they can’t buy new ones so it’s unlikely to push up cpu prices.

That is total dogshit. It would take 6 months to break even assuming no power costs.
And the fact that gpu mining is unprofitable shows how the current crypto “boom” is faker than 2021.

- Comment on UK economy in recession as households cut spending 9 months ago:
Although times are still tough for many families, we must stick to the plan – cutting taxes on work and business to build a stronger economy.
Tax cuts for the rich and businesses never works if there is no demand. Tax cuts for the poor while better isn’t going to make much of a difference because the issue is not taxes it’s low wages and unemployment/underemployment.
Where is the increased welfare spending?

Not really. Driver arguably deserves more blame than the victim. Normal people don’t expect to be run over on a beach, its generally considered a vehicle free zone.
