But then again these people always have a tendency to understate their ridiculous finances. Anyone who spends 4k on Starbucks yearly is just getting personally finessed.

Honestly, if we just let the 'rona just rip through the olds, the fats, the smokers, the blacks, the rednecks, the hard-working Americans and immune systems compromised, we could have probably moved closer to nationalized poor healthcare.

Every other country with nationalized healthcare has olds, smokers, blacks, rednecks, hard-working Americans, and immunocompromised. I'm happy to help them.
But the fatties gotta go.

Oh, ffs, this is just another debt ceiling scare. The debt ceiling is worthless, regardless of your economic orientation.
Edit: for all the dipshits saying brrrrr, this is a fiscal limitation, not a monetary one. The debt ceiling is a useless legislative relic.

Debt to be collected is accounts receivable. Accounts receivable and cash are both assets, but they are not the same.

40% of US dollars in circulation were printed last year.
You can’t just keep printing money and not seizing some of the wealth back from the 1%. Land tax (Georgist FTW. Landchads BTFO) is a great option that would frick over a lot of the billionaires.

Hi, Guh! Landlord here. Due to increased costs of operation, we have no choice but to raise your rent by 20%.
Remember, rent is due at the end of each month. Pay up, wagie!

First and foremost, the debt ceiling has frickall to do with M1 or M2. It's a bureaucratic checkbox. Thanks for playing.
And it's resulted in 4 months of ~5% inflation that's already beginning to taper off. That's a pretty good indication that we're in new territory.
There are many ways you can "print". Be more specific.
Why are you bringing up M1 if you're worried about asset prices? Where were you a decade ago?
Georgism is spiffy, but it's far too limited to address wider monetary issues.

I'm genuinely and completely baffled when I see takes like this (usually from some dem. soc. or outright commie). They usually insist that hard work doesn't ever, at the very least, improve one's station in life (no matter how marginal). They also think that a person can only become rich/successful by being given money or resources from their parents/relatives. Anyone else who achieves success must have gotten it from pure dumb luck. Therefore, they also think that the government must give everyone NEET bucks if they want people to become richer. Now, I'm not saying that all government programs are unnecessary. But how on earth do these people think developing countries, who started out dirt poor, managed to become (relatively) wealthy and successful over a short period of time? Singapore went from a real GDP per capita of $3503 and a literacy rate of 52.6% in 1960 to a real GDP per capita of $56349 and an education system that's consistently ranked top 10 in the world in 2020. How did all that wealth come about? Did the aliens inject money into Singapore from outer space? Did literally every Singaporean get lucky? Why do Western socialists, who live in highly developed countries, act like they were born in a single occupancy home with their entire family and had to walk 3km to get water every day?

They put in the bare minimum, call it hard work and just assume the world is at fault when they don't get anywhere.

They aren't wrong, the problem as always with them is that they draw the wrong conclusions.
Think of it as you are a starving man, now your choices are starve to death or go fishing with a 50-50 success rate of catching fish every day.
There's a bigger boat next to you that catches fishes easily.
Do you stop fishing and starve to death just because a bigger nice boat having an easier time exists?

It's worse than that. You stop fishing and then say it's the other boat's fault that you starved to death.

All scripture inspired by God has a similar message. Programming is a way of expressing ideas, just like any kind of writing. And where are ideas best expressed? In scripture. I try to use the writing style of the Torah as my guide for how I should program. Biblical Hebrew is a very simple language, yet the Torah expresses profound ideas in a simple and direct way using this language. This is exactly what one wants from good programming. And Luan is designed for this kind of programming.
Look at modern western culture, especially the culture of Silicon Valley. Can any religious person deny that this culture is the product of Satan? And so their software is inspired by Satan. Is this the kind of software that a Muslim or any religious person should use?
