    There you go again. Production results in wages which funds economic demand. Those are your words.

    It isn’t my fault you prefer republican propaganda, to reality. You have been so completely owned in every exchange on this topic, I almost feel sorry for you.

    I correctly pointed out that demand precedes production. It isn't my fault you don't have a ****ing clue about economics, despite NUMEROUS people trying to educate you in this thread alone, lol.

    Jesus Christ. We all drive cars. Not because the lot you drive by has hundreds of them, but because we demand them. Consumption by type is based on funding availability at the time of purchase by the individual.

    Formal definition. I can explain it to you, I can't understand it for you.

    I didn’t call you a name. I correctly pointed out you prefer right wing propoganda, to demonstrated reality.

    It’s right there in your own post. Desire must be funded to create economic demand. And the funding comes from production. You can’t understand this ?? Where does the money come from that funds the desire. Ethiopians desire air conditioned homes. Why don’t all Ethiopians have them ?? Because Ethiopians don’t produce enough.

    I know. You’d think after you have been corrected so many times, you would actually learn something.

    Right wing propoganda is a powerful thing

    Then why did you acknowledge that wages come from production ?? And that wages fund economic demand ?? And now claim that production does not precede consumption ??

    You are arguing with yourself. You’ve Shown that production always precedes consumption but then deny what you’ve demonstrated.

    Uh, the same reason I acknowledge that water is wet.

    Strawmen. I quite clearly, and repeatedly, have shown you DEMAND precedes it all.

    Production meets demand, and must be funded. It's in your reply (which earlier claimed it had nothing to do with desire before being shown to be ignorant). Production funding happens prior to sales which is meant to cover production costs and eventually turn profit. I mean... This is just wasting my time. It's black and white. You are putting the cart before the horse, and if you don't get it, I can't explain it to you.

    There you go again. You state that water is wet and production always precedes consumption. And then you deny it. Bizarre.

    And the funding comes from production. QED.

    I’ve continually said that funded desire is economic demand. And of course the funding comes from production.
