I'd like to reiterate my proposal for an M/W/F @ 4pm Eastern schedule, moving to daily if this sort of volume keeps up.

I'll consider it, but if you really want to make sure that we do MWF, then I suggest donating to my SuperPAC...

Are we going to establish a lottery system for discussion thread posting as well, and use police raids to shut down those that don't win the lottery?

Speaking of which, once the thread goes up, I do have a semi-serious bad economics question to ask in regards to the Santa Ana clusterfragglerock that's going on with their marijuana retailers.

This article by Thaler, Kahneman, and Knetsch suggest that most people would consider queue>lottery>auction to be the most fair, if we all decide that fairness has a place in the theory of the firm, and by theory of the firm, I mean the dictatorship of Wumbotistan. :P

The mods of /r/economics are setting the subreddit private until we are provided with a Basic Discussion Thread.

And they're negotiating it in secret? That's anti democratic. I shouldn't have expected anything else from those corporatist shills.

I rarely go on there anymore, see if I care!

You've already given up on the AOTW so what's /r/economics good for anyway?

setting it private and directing all posters here...

Shit. All those immigrant posters will undercut the effort of our hardworking badeconomists and produce more badeconomics posts more quickly and cheaply. Then there won't be any badeconomics left for our in house badeconomists to post.

They'll also produce more bad economics to post about, so it's a net gain.

But what if one of them automates the posting process? Then person will control the capital and we'll have a subreddit full of badeconomists not posting and not able to receive a minimum amount of Karma, because other people will only upvote the bot-created bad economics!

Maybe for a producer like you. But for Consumers we see more output and thus cheaper posts. Unionist pig

It's already public again! We'll never get rid of Ellen Pao wumbo if you cave this quickly!
