  1. #ConsumerWelfare, #RevealedPreferences, #regulatorycapture & #meritocracy are just some of the ways that #capitalism's alleged defenders cooked up to insist that they love the competitive discipline imposed by markets while being totally dependent on self-described #capitalists who have utterly escaped from that discipline and have committed to doing everything in their power to prevent themselves from ever coming under any form of constraint.

    Today, these [ #billionaires ] clutch their pearls at the "demonization" of the ultra-rich, calling it "billionaire derangement syndrome." But the only "billionaire derangement syndrome" that matters is the syndrome that affects billionaires and convinces them that they are above any discipline or rules.”

    LOVELYZ -- Close To You
    youtu.be/I-U5yP5vkwQ?si=xUpDxY

    Compositions from e.one often appeal to me, and "Close To You" is one of my favourite Lovelyz B sides.

    When I first saw this week's theme, I thought I was only going to make one post, as denim, I thought, is not actually my favourite material for Kpop outfits.

    Yet here I am with my fifth post on the theme, thinking how pretty Lovelyz look in their denim outfits.

    I suppose this is #KpopMonday revealing what my real tastes are!

  11. @adam "They followed user engagement, but not the underlying preferences of their users."

    The theory of #RevealedPreferences has a lot to do with this. Classical economics leads us to bad places.

  16. @Qldaah energy policy and engineering gets just so much easier when you can say whatever

    (seriously, the SMR concept has been bouncing around for decades. And it fails the revealed preferences test hard. If it actually did what it said on the tin then one could be funded through construction and commissioning by any one of its wealthy spruikers, say Bill Gates, out of the spare change behind their couch)

  19. CW: Long thread/15

    The global business lobby *loves* the idea of "#PersonalResponsibility" and its evil twin, "#CaveatEmptor." Its pet economists worship the idea of "#RevealedPreferences," claiming that when we use plastic, we may *claim* that we don't want to have our bodies poisoned with immortal, toxic microplastics, that we don't want our land and waters despoiled - but we *actually* love it, because otherwise we'd "vote with our wallets" for something else.
