🇮🇷 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 #Iran is striking much of the Middle East nonstop!
Expensive interceptors miss many missiles & drones.
What happens when Patriots run out & Iran uses its most advanced weapons?
🛢️ Major refineries/storage were hit, rebuilding will take years, so #oil prices will keep rising.

As petrol prices start to climb we can be sure that profiteering is happening in the retail fuel sector... how?
Well, as pointed yesterday by @alantperry -
'As Canadian economist Jim Stanford recently pointed out, the petrol you are pumping into your car at inflated prices was refined weeks ago from oil extracted months ago. So why, other than profiteering, is the price rising? Funny how an increased *future* price of oil is applied retroactively'!
All on show right now!
The new tariff bullshit just dropped. These geniuses are determined to trigger stagflation.
Is Trump out to get the Dems 66 seats in the senate?

The housing bill forces companies that build housing-to-rent to sell after 7 years and caps ownership at 350 homes.
Because of course it does. Nothing good can happen in America. Certainly not the introduction of cheap housing.
I want to send an email to #UnlearningEconomics requesting if they can create a #Mastodon account. Haven't came across any way to contact them except through #BlueSky or #YouTube :(
The CollEc project analyses the co-authorship network in economics. In particular, it allows to find the shortest path between any two (RePEc registered) economists.
U.S. intelligence assesses Iran’s leadership remains largely intact and the regime is not at risk of collapse after nearly two weeks of U.S. and Israeli bombardment, according to three sources familiar with the assessments, per Reuters

➡️ Anstatt die ungerechtfertigte Abzocke durch Preistreiberei nicht nur an den Tankstellen an der Wurzel auszurotten, dezimiert man lieber die eigenen Ölreserven. CDU-Versagerpolitik!

Проф. Вл.Иноземцев опубликовал текст который можно рассматривать как манифест нового (а точнее старого) либерализма.
Prof. Vl. Inozemtsev has published a text that can be seen as a manifesto of new (or rather old) liberalism.
На руине великой иллюзии: почему Запад проигрывает?Это «возвращение к истокам» будет сложным, но ему нет альтернативы. Придется признать, что неравенство — тем более в обществе, где особое значение имеют не происхождение и статус, а способности и таланты — не только допустимо, но и справедливо. Что государственное регулирование не может ставить предпринимателей и потребителей в заведомо худшие условия, чем имеются у представителей других стран. Что прогрессивный налог — безумная идея, так как нарушает базовые принципы того самого равенства, о котором столь многие пекутся. Что система социального обеспечения не может быть устроена образом, вознаграждающим праздность больше, чем общественно полезную деятельность. Что уважение к чьим-то правам и ценностям не оправдывает разрушения канонов, столетиями вырабатывавшихся обществом, и что мигранты должны их принимать, а не менять. Что граждане ни при каких обстоятельствах не должны быть лишены права политического участия, о чем поговаривают сторонники корпоративного господства, — но обретение гражданства должно стать более сложным, чем сегодня.
I am still thinking a lot about this "Philosophize This" episode: https://www.philosophizethis.org/podcast/h48mld6lelcfrts-c55k9
The topic is highly relevant. Bataille argued that self-destruction has its origin the solar energy surplus.
It is a very interesting reasoning. I'll try to summarise the idea here and add my personal thoughts.
I am taking CUET-PG soon (as just a backup in case JAM didn't happen) and I am currently scared the heck out. I am supposed to make 6 or less mistakes in 75 questions but I keep making around 10 in the PYQs. RIP me if I don't fix this in 2 days ☠️

L’UE tenta di calmierare i prezzi dell’energia con interventi coordinati, ma la frammentazione delle politiche nazionali e la dipendenza da mercati globali instabili rendono difficile una soluzione efficace.
Senza una strategia comune a lungo termine, ogni misura rischia di essere solo un cerotto temporaneo.

Launched 30 years ago tomorrow, EDIRC is a directory of economics institutions that expanded from a list of URLs to a metadata provider for RePEc and a one-stop-shop for info about members, alumni and their publications for over 15K institutions and associations.
One of the most beautiful images I have seen yet in 2026.
Higher energy prices make for a better world. 🎉 🥳 🎉

Guard Byron Hadley's $35,000 of 1947 dollars [Shawshank Redemption] would be worth $3,066,625 today (2026) if he invested it conservatively., It would have passed $1,000,000 in 1996. That's with a 4% interest rate and 4% inflation. #economics #movies

How to get your works listed on RePEc is a FAQ. The basic principle is that the publisher does that. But if the publisher does not, there are still options, as described in this old blog post
