Ok and? Most lawyers dont have degrees in economics and yet congress is overwhelmingly made up of lawyers. But you’re not crying about congress being woefully lacking in economics degrees.
Whattabout Congress? Yes, they are also woefully lacking in economics qualifications. That’s how we are in a perpetual cycle of increasing entitlements driving inflation in the first place. But then Mamdani kicking the inflation machine into high gear while trying to control prices can only end in economic disaster.
But for some reason youre hyperfocused on El-Sayed and Mandani and not the overall irrelevant qualifications. And clearly Mamdani’s policies are actually working, the budget is balanced. And explain to me how the fuck Mandani, a mayor of a city, has any effect on the federal reserve’s monetary printing policy.
Monetary policy is only one possible factor for driving inflation. High demand and cost of goods and services are other major factors, which Mamdani definitely has influence over. Also anyone can balance a budget for the short term. That’s my whole point, that these short term policies are popular, but devastating in the long term if you don’t actually know what you are doing.
Then what will I find you doing? Because going after brown mayors breaking from the corporate favoring policy seems to be in your wheelhouse. Clearly by your comment history youre coming to blows a lot more with progressives constantly naysaying any forward progress and defending conservative bullshit.
That’s because it’s lemmy, almost entirely progressives. The populists on the conservative side making bad policy are slashing funding with little regard for long term impact that’s just as harmful as the populist leftist approaches, you just don’t see me having those conversations here because nobody on lemmy is advocating for it. I think policy should encourage competition and that’s about it. At least in regards to economic issues. The market can sort these things out if it is allowed to work, as long as there is healthy competition.
It’s his degree and it has nothing to do with economics. My point is that he has no formal education in economics.

His policies can’t be any worse than the trickle down bullshit we’ve been attempting and failing with for the 40 years.
Well you won’t find me defending corporate welfare.
