"@nicolasfulghum In my part of the country the limiting factors are now mostly project approval timelines interconnection queues transmission lines etc. but changes in federal incentives have thrown a wrench in the financials requiring stuff to be reworked & analysis to be redone"

"@DarrigoMelanie Price gouged probably works as a populist political message. Bad greedy people are just ripping you off but theres probably some real underlying issues behind some that need to be addressed to truly fix them"

"@DarrigoMelanie For example. car insurance has to pay to repair/replace cars so as the underlying price of cars goes up (tariffs chip shortages whatever) or if accidents get more common (eg policy changes making it harder to take licenses away from bad drivers) then insurance is gonna go up"

"@DarrigoMelanie So you can scream those greedy car insurance companies and fuel populist rage but maybe part of the solution is that we should reinstate the rules that resulted in bad drivers losing their licenses or reevaluate import tariffs to lower car prices"

"@MattBruenig If I read it w/ the right staccato rhythm emphasizing the right words I can almost recognize a type of voice that was hip in the mid-60s. (Vonnegut maybe) But in another voice its a 5th grader making up a book report on the spot standing in front of the class"

"@sidprabhu Theres very good reasons why inflation rates slightly above zero (1-3%) are preferable to zero but that kind of nuance is lost when you make idiotic over-simplification that any inflation is equivalent to Weimars hyperinflation"

"@sidprabhu Deflation can have very harmful effects. A slight cushion against it is wise. Nominal rigidities have coats too. Non-inflation correction mechanisms for economic cycle like lay-offs can induce more pain (unnecessarily) that just having a couple percent of inflation"

"@bscholl Under deflation the longer you postpone purchases the fewer dollars it takes to buy stuff. Presuming your income is not also decreasing it makes sense to hold off on spending as much as u can & while sales go down your salary becomes relatively more costly to your employer"

"@NoJusticeMTG I havent checked the GDP data (we should use real not nominal so we dont conflate inflation with real economic growth) but the USSR also did make it a crime to not work or to work too easy of a job. That might help growth but I can see why folks wouldnt like that"
