India WAS already heavily into trains & buses, and it was a #micromobility haven with bikes, motorcycles, rickshaws, and other low energy vehicles, but that was deemed #ThirdWorld until highways and cars took over

What happened to #MiltonFriedman's "Methodology of #PositiveEconomics" which requires one to remove their values or political ideology from economic analysis?

One of the first books I read on this was Richard Lipsey's Positive Economics which made a huge effort to distinguish Positive Economics from Normative Economics, and judged economic theory by its power to predict actual outcomes

They spun the basic tenet of #Keynsian or #Keynesian Theory:

Per #IMF, "Keynesians believe that… fluctuations in ANY component of spending,… [e.g.] investment,… cause output to change. If government spending increases, for example, and all other spending components remain constant, then output will increase".

#Reagan's connivers substituted "rich" for "government" and claimed the RICH would drive growth by reinvesting money saved in taxes.

And THEN, they go to other pauperized "nations" on the brink of bankruptcy like #NorthKorea and "borrow" their troops, never to be returned.

Nice job pivoting to Bill Bar when the discussion is about what #Garland did or did not do.

Did Bill Barr kill the obstruction case that is mentioned in the lawfare story I linked to? If so, then I am not the only one who is misinformed.

The device wipe story came out in July 2022. OIG letter says USSS erased text messages after OIG requested them but does not mention when.

#Garland also let #Mueller evidence rot and expire instead of prosecuting #Trump for crimes that Mueller had not "exonerated" him for.

Not sure when Garland started J6 investigation but it seems like #J6Committee "jolted" him into action.

Least he could've done is immediately impound SS texts which as Exec branch property didn't require subpoenas.

⬆️ #Israel stands behind #Gaza cease-fire proposal, says #US national security adviser #JakeSullivan, who pushed back against #Hamas assertions that Israel isn’t fully committed to the proposal outlined by #Biden.

“Israel has SUPPLIED this proposal… Israel has not contradicted or walked that back,” Sullivan said. “To this day they stand behind the proposal.”

Has anybody heard anything OFFICIAL from Israel directly that either corroborates OR contradicts this?

big mess is brewing

#LostContinent

Russia’s been trying to cut a wide swath across #Africa from #Mauritania to #Eritrea and everything in between

In #Sahel States #Mali, #Niger, & #BurkinaFaso, & most recently #Chad, #Putin is on collision course with #France & #EU

Niger recently suspended military cooperation with #US after moving away from France & EU last year

Almost all of #Africa from #Algeria to #SouthAfrica are also in for Putin
