      Reagan wasn't president until 1981 after an economic downturn that started in the early 70's. Reagan's "voodoo" economic policies did do a lot to enshrine the wage stagnation that started in the 1970's for the long term.

    The biggest problem with the stock market is it encourages businesses to prioritize short term profits over everything else, and punishes companies for being "stagnant", as if making the same amount of profit from one year to the next is a bad thing. It's not sustainable to constantly be making more profit, but the stock market demands that from all companies. That just encourages enshittification.

    The tricky thing is the times the economy and the stock market intersect. I'm squarely middle-class but my retirement accounts are invested in stocks/ETFs. So I simultaneously feel the effects of the real economy in my everyday life but also feel the effects of the stock market.

  • @JohnThomas-ut3go

    The stock market is kinda like collectable cards. None of it matters to most people because we dont have and cant afford the cards with real value. Short of a few cards that alway hold value the popularity, therefore price, comes and goes. Baseball, MtG, Pokémon cards dont affect the economy and jobs though but otherwise very similar.

    Maybe it's a bit too complicated for this format. At least, I don't know how to explain it both quickly and simply.
    But maybe it would be a good idea to have a video on why services like Robinhood are about leading sheep to the slaughter house rather than about empowering small investors.

      That's not why they do it.
      Impartial Points is part of the network of new channels project from the team of Bell from Beau of the Fifth Collumn.
      They use AI voice on some projects as an argument in of itself. "This info stands on its own merit" is probably the point here.
      Its not like the scripts are AI.
      Edit: if im wrong about the ties to BotFC, my bad.
