I was busy man. It’s my days off. I have a lot of time to reddit/Lemmy at irregular intervals with work (layovers, waiting for work to show up). But when in home, I’m home. Plus I broke my screen and had to get that fixed today. Such a pain.
Lastly, everyone else either gave links to things to read, which is useful information but not something to debate about until after familiarizing myself with them. Which I did respond to one of those, iirc. Asking about the resulting efficacy of those theories and calculations. No response there as well.
My point is that ideology has no place in economics. Just what works and what doesn’t based on results. For example, out current tax structure means heavily on shifting taxation from the wealthy to the low earners. That has fairly consistently failed to produce anything other than market instability and poverty. Same with our lack of education funding. And crumbling infrastructure. All things that economists (who are almost exclusively capitalism leaning) have been screaming would happen since the Regan days. From my limited knowledge, Marx’s theories failed to produce the results they promised to produce. Meaning that when calculating the projected ROI (for example) it was unable to predict the outcomes reliably, while other theories were able to predict those outcomes much more consistently.
Not everything you disagree with is click bait. This is Lemmy for hells sake. It’s not like I’m hiring myself out for a dozen clicks.
This is conversation. I have seen some really good responses, and some not so much.
ROI can be calculated to a fairly high accuracy in almost every instance. That is one that is definitely not a soft idea. Pick up a textbook.
I don’t need to know anything except that you didn’t answer any of the other people giving you actual stuff, just me calling you out.
Let that be a lesson to you.

Anyway cheers.
