Is the Onboard that's in this thread crying about politics in the DT threads the same Onboard that has been banned from those threads multiple times for making political posts? Or was that Onboard 1.0? I'm trying to be fair and make sure I'm not mixing up my whiny hypocritical little bitches.

If this is Onboard 2.0, and if he was on Hornfans that would make him Onboard 0.5

I was banned for shit posting 2x (the whole site is about shit posting, but I guess I hit too close to hime for somebody) and somebody complained about a post that was allegedly political, but I was never given the opportunity to see the post that crossed the line.

My money is you're the little girl that complained.  You really seem enamored with me you post about me quite a bit.  

I'm kinda wondering about a candle kit shrine in your moms house.  I know she has one....

First. Mostly want to apologize for my rants here and at the DT. I have a small circle of people I call close.  Not friends. That’s a smaller circle. I have my aunt dying from early onset dementia (by dying I mean her brain is gone. She was a microbiologist. She left her house a few days ago with two different shoes on, a pair of pants, nightgown over those and a few shirts and her underwear on her head. Stopped by a patrol guy who saw she needed help. My uncle has cancer and it has spread so he is going to MD Anderson. Two people related to me have Covid. My credit is in the crapper, job prospects even though I have a JD aren’t great, this is my small rant. I come here to laugh not to fight. I guess.

Only internet pussies complain about rep. Unless there is some money involved, why the fuck would you care about some meaningless internet bullshit? I rep posts that don't agree with me when they make me think along with posts that go against the grain. Because all views are necessary. DT or CR if you complain about rep, you are an internet pussy.

BTW, if you people are getting paid for rep, I reserve the right to exercise my black privilege. And claim racism.

It’s absolutely accurate. Now are there periods where politics have more of a say in the direction of the business?  Sure. In the vast majority of years, do political decisions make or break my year?  Absolutely not. 

Dude.  You said "your industry," then you backed up to "your year."  Your year is not the industry.

Oil & Gas and finance are hugely regulated.  Sure, it's going to take major policy changes a while to ripple up and down the industry to the point they affect your business specifically.

But to say politics doesn't affect O&G finance may be one of the dumbest takes ever on this board.

Maybe what you meant to say is that the O&G and finance lobbies prevent politics from having a major impact on your business.

The recent drop in the price of oil was nothing but a political play.  Granted it wasn't a domestic one, but you know damn right it is going to have and is having an impact on the industry and even your year.

A very, very simple and predictable take from an attorney. I’ll respond in more detail later, but giving politics credit for the drop in crude this Spring is really stupid. That was the noisy headline and had little to do with it. 

I don't care about the minor point.   Even if the root cause was an organic reduction in demand, the responses of major producers like OPEC, Russia, and the US are political in nature.  You cannot get away from politics in the price of oil.

Defend the major point.

Also worth noting that the term "politics" gets thrown around a lot when people really mean "partisan politics."  One can actually discuss politics without taking sides.  One can even argue that one policy choice is better than another without taking partisan sides, ie involving particular political parties or politicians.

What are you talking about? The low oil prices are being driven in part by depressed demand, but OPEC and Russia are in a price war that's driving the price down and putting American fracking wells into the red. Shale only works above a certain price per barrel, and OPEC knows that and is exploiting that by not reducing production

That is one major commodity that's pretty much tied to Geo politics.

Oil dropped from (around) $65 to $45 between 1/1 and the morning of 3/6 before the Russians fired the first shot across the bow like an idiot drunk Captainant, stumbling into a conversation with someone he doesn’t know. End of 3/6, $40, 3/9 after Saudi response - $30. From there, all COVID. My point is, crude follows supply/demand fundamentals. Yes, sovereigns may cut supply but it’s economic and not political in nature. COVID crushing demand was the story, not some short term pissing match by idiots who totally walked it back one month later.

Everything is heavily influenced by supply and the demand in a perfect market economy. After that - well, it's more akin to religion and philosophy.

For example - Adam Smith - a leading thinker on the philosophy of economic theory in the Age of the Enlightenment. He questioned every assumption in order to form a perfect society on behalf of people who had known little other than Monarchs and cabals of dastardly powerful concentrations of wealth. 

Adam Smith was a progressive economist. He advanced future-oriented policies - not policies of the moment. He showed the wealthy they could keep their money. Having passed that test, it was up to him to show the wealthy they would make more money (and so would some of the less fortunate). We have a similar imbalance of wealth today and it is extreme. Wealth, not income. When Adam Smith wrote The Wealth of Nations he believed he solved this issue forever. But today we see a mixed market and tribalism descending on nations. The world much less market-oriented. Some argue neoliberal economic policies caused this extreme wealth imbalance through its insistence on austerity programs that punish those with less to spare. What would Adam Smith say? 

I would say that is appropriate for a DT thread. It is more philosophy than politics. News organizations used to talk about issues - such as the economic consequences of austerity programs on wealth. WSJ still does. NYT will, but fluffy. It is not adversarial since it is ultimately discussing wealth, political structures that protect wealth, and how mainstreet might fare with a tweek to economic policies.

Some of the DT welcome-wagon is about as friendly as a two-headed snake.. I am sure they mean well.

It is a college board where such ideas are regularly discussed - even in the business school. 

Economics and Philosophy - DT or CR?

 

Quote

(Adam Smith (1723 - 1790) was a Scottish philosopher and political economist of the Age of Enlightenment and a key figures in the Scottish Enlightenment. He is widely cited as the father of modern economics, and sometimes as the father of modern Capitalism, and his magnum opus, "The Wealth of Nations", is considered the first modern work of classical economics. His metaphor of the invisible hand of the free market has been of untold influence in the development of laissez faire economics and modern Capitalism and Individualism, but Smith's work has been almost as influential in other areas of Political Philosophy, including Utilitarianism, Liberalism, Libertarianism, Socialism and Marxism.)

It depends on who is discussing, unfortunately.  Should be able to be discussed in DT but it will undoubtedly devolve into tribal CR (or more recently DT) shit flinging.
