What happens when government runs out of gas, their policy concerning light bulb changing, economics in an elevator, and Keynesian light bulb stimulus.

  • 2:08 You should have included Bastiat's joke about banning all windows to help the light bulb industry (Bastiat used the candle stick makers, but it works the same).

  • @StatelessLiberty I used that in an episode of the Bogosity podcast.

  • I started listening to your joke...but the delivery was so poor...that I actually got embarrased and had to stop listening to it. That usually happens when statists try to tell jokes through their veil of hatred, bitterness and soul-less nihilism.

  • @WhitePlumeMountain Uh, I'm not a statist.

  • @shanedk And yup, the money's gotta come from taxpayers which wouls've gotten it in one piece. At best, it is in 4/5 now.

  • @shanedk Ah, I see. My teacher/textbook used it to demonstrate the relationship/reliance on each other. Guess I should be glad I had the instructors I did. =P

  • @Virgil0211 In essence, yes. But the Keynesians have this idea that you can somehow inject money into the model without withdrawing it from somewhere else.

  • @shanedk Huh. When I was taking macro, the circular flow model was presented as something of a model to show the theoretical relationship between firms and households, a bit like a yin-yang model where both sides were important to the whole.

    But then again, neither my instructors nor the textbook authors were Keynesians.
