    Krugman shared this chart, as part of an argument that it’s ridiculous for Europe to be scared of Russia:

    GDP indicates the value of the parts of the economy which are subject to money. (If you do something but don’t use money, it doesn’t get measured.) As such it theoretically measures how much you can mobilize using money. Back when most people lived off commons, before that […]

  3. Todos os caminhos da guerra levam à recessão

    Não é só óleo e gás: também fertilizantes, petroquímicos, alumínio, aço e hélio seguem afetados pela aventura insana de Trump. Economistas projetam três cenários. Há grande risco de escassez de alimentos. Sul Global precisa agir: dos 17 países mais vulneráveis, treze são africanos

    Doing it on the supply side is prohibitive (you'd need fuel prices to increase by, say, 100-200 % in the USA; or, even less likely, ration fuel). On the demand side I guess you can pay people to commute by bike or public transport. Both options are probably cheaper than the usual #FossilSubsidies.

    The MAGA Bubble Is Imploding

    “Attorney General #PamBondi’s meltdown on Wednesday while being questioned the House Judiciary Committee was exceptional, even by this administration’s rock-bottom standards.

    Has any high-level official ever before shrieked at a member of Congress, “You don’t tell me anything, you washed-up, loser lawyer”?
