    It’s like you intentionally want to look foolish. You literally quoted me NOT saying what you claimed I did. Lol

    You have stated the truth but then deny stating the truth. Bizarre.

    This thread... It's OPs assertion by an ignorant opinion that out right lied in order to troll leftist Trump hate rubbish was debunked, trashed on the first page in March. Yet somehow it keeps getting necroed by armchair economists. Stop it please

    Read your post with understanding. You clearly indicated that production always precedes consumption multiple times. And then denied it multiple times.

    Try answering the question - where does the money come from that funds economic demand. And the answer as you have indicated is production.

    And your answer contained in your posts is that production funds economic demand. Therefore production always precedes consumption.

    nobody ever said otherwise. What I keep correcting you on, is that demand precedes all of this.

    The production which funds the economic demand precedes this. So production always precedes economic demand. QED. You keep making that basic economics 101 point over and over again.

    Nope. Demand precedes everything.

    This is literally the basis of economics, and it is astounding the amount of ignorance the right wing displays.

    There you go again contradicting your own posts which clearly indicates that production funds economic demand and therefore proves that production always precedes consumption.

    Keep shooting your self in both feet. It’s always good for a laugh.

    Its amazing. You can go through full pages with no facts stated or arguments made.

    What is the point of that in an economic thread?

    That’s what happens when someone continuously fails to recognize that economic demand is funded by production despite their own posts which confirm that fact. I’ve presented the correct arguments to which the mindless response has been ‘demand precedes everything’ over and over again.

    Economic growth isn't necessarily a good thing if it's all fueled by population growth.
    You can increase the size of the economy, but everyone will be poorer.
