If you've ever wondered to yourself:

Why the #US can easily fund the military, but can't seem to fund #healthcare

or why we can just make more money to bail out the banks but we can't lift people out of poverty

or maybe you've wondered why we can't just print more money

I'm here to tell you, we can, but our #politicians are either ignorant of how the #economy works or willfully using it for political gain.

You should read (or listen!) to The #Deficit Myth.

Somehow we’ve taken a machine that was designed for, and excels at, math and made it terrible at it.

It’s amusing with the whole glue on pizza discussion - Google was built on determining what websites were most “trustworthy” by counting the number of references to it, and now theyre just going to switch to a method that doesnt care about any level of trust at all. Reddit dude that talks about Elmer’s glue on pizza is just as good as an experienced pizzaiolo.
