God damn I’m just trying to learn dude. Do you come here for discussion or just to be an asshole?
I’m not trying to be an asshole. Read the article, and if you want to learn more, like I said, the article cites the research underpinning it.
You aren’t trying hard enough to learn if you just ask questions in the comments, either way.
I don’t just want to learn what the article says, I want to learn what people think. That’s why I’m using a network designed for discussion and not just, say, an RSS feed.
Well like your discussing with the other person, it’s not just one method.
But rather it’s a system where wealth begets wealth. In aggregate, in many industries, during something like a pandemic or very high inflation, they have levers at their disposal to increase their profits. It’s that simple.
For people who invested in real estate? It’s forcing people back to work. For people who own retailers, distributors and manufacturers, it’s increasing prices and keeping wages flat. Others buy up faltering businesses and create monopolies.
