Vania Esady and Stephen Burgess A summary measure for UK households’ resilience High levels of household debt have been shown to amplify recessions. For example, in the global financial crisis (GFC), UK households with more debt tended to cut back their spending disproportionately, amplifying aggregate demand effects and potentially making the recession worse.

August 28th, 2024: If you pick up VENOMVERSE REBORN #3 - out today at a comic sho Today (August 28, 2024), the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) released the latest – Monthly Consumer Price Index Indicator – for July 2024, which showed that the annual inflation rate has fallen from 3.8 per cent in June to 3.5 per cent in July, a significant decline which continues the downward trend. That trend has…
In the two hundred years before the American Civil War there were more than 250 slave revolts involving more than 50 slaves. Most involved between 50-150, but some we much larger. So, Sean Paul, what does this have to do with the Second Amendment Right to Bear Arms? Everything to do with slavery, and nothing to do with holding our government accountable. Seriously, do you honestly think a couple thousand Texans with AR-15s could out fight an armored brigade? GTFOH. The Second Amendment was specifically designed so that white slave holders had enough firepower–not pitchforks–to put down any serious slave rebellion. Look what they did to Gabriel Prosser in 1800? Bet you never heard of him, have ya? Jack Smith went to a new Grand Jury and got a superseding indictment in the January 6th case in light of the Supreme Court’s immunity case. Donald Trump seems to be surprised by this: (FYI: It was Trump’s DOJ in 2020…)
When even Jeanine Pirro objects you should know you’ve gone too far. He meant it exactly as it sounded.

After Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour, Singapore’s GDP increased by 0.2%. Do concerts have such substantial economic implications and are Southeast Asia’s ‘competition states’ jostling to attract the investment and growth opportunities that come with them? The post Concerts appeared first on Progress in Political Economy (PPE). Nate Wilcox recently wrote about the signal to noise ratio in the information we receive:
The Pentagon buzzword can apply to anything from missiles to pepperoni pizzas inside the military — while papering over the corpses that “lethality” produces. The post What Kamala Harris Meant by “Most Lethal Fighting Force” in Her DNC Speech appeared first on The Intercept. Right now, human population growth is doing something long thought impossible – it’s wavering. It’s now possible global population could peak much earlier than expected, topping 10 billion in the 2060s. Then, it would begin to fall. In wealthier countries, it’s already happening. Japan’s population is falling sharply, with a net loss of 100 people every hour. In Europe, Continue reading »
As China commemorates the 120th anniversary of Deng Xiaoping’s birth, the Post examines his legacy across generations. In the first of a three-part series, we look at Deng’s continuing resonance with the ruling Communist Party’s leadership. Chairman Mao Zedong called him the “steel factory” for his uncompromising resolve. Yet he was also a master of Continue reading »
These massacres bring us closer to the central questions that the inquiring mind might ask about the Gaza genocide. Every genocide is different from the one before. Organised extermination is their similarity, but no two genocides are the same. They are not unique except in themselves. In fact, history is in part a running sequence Continue reading »
A Senate inquiry has failed to reach agreement on whether the Federal Government should spend A$1.5 billion on a major industrial hub in Darwin – spending critics say amounts to a huge fossil fuel subsidy. The project, known as the Middle Arm Industrial Precinct, involves developing a manufacturing and minerals hub on a peninsula at Darwin Harbour. Continue reading »
Australia punches well above its weight when it comes to global fossil carbon emissions. With less than one-third of one percent of the world’s population, we are responsible for about 4.5 percent of fossil carbon emissions globally, and around 80 percent of this comes from our fossil fuel exports. Our nation is thus responsible for Continue reading »
