That attack on Trump by Ted was crazy. Who is Cruz hoping to win over by hounding Trump for saying "I won't let people die in the street"??

He's going to make a "gotcha" attack ad, because he recalls Trump supporting some kind of public health care system in a previous debate.

"Let him die" is an applause line in GOP debates when it comes to providing healthcare to the poor.

"The Tax Foundation says your plan will cost $10 trillion over the next decade, adjusted for the increased economic growth that will result. How do you plan on paying for it?"

"Growth."

R.I.P. fiscal responsibility.

Trump is genius. So, by bluster and demeanor alone, he could win the GOP nomination -- all without being pinned to a conservative platform! I mean, he's literally defending Planned Parenthood and tepidly supporting Obamacare, the individual mandate, and universal health coverage. He's running as a general election moderate in the GOP primary and pulling it off. He's selling Obama policies to a fervent GOP crowd.

So, this is the question I guess. Is it better to win your primary through crazy policy and smart demeanor, but then have to walk back the policies? Or is it better to win your primary with smart policy and crazy demeanor, but then have to walk back the demeanor?

I don't know. I guess we'll find out.

So is Ben Carson's healthcare plan a basic income plan for only healthcare? Or just a savings account? What does he actually mean?

He gave lots of specifics but its still vague.

[–]IntegraldsI am the rep agent AMA 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

It's a health empowerment account. duh.

[–]ledankmemes 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I mean, his page says its a savings account...but like, why not just get a savings account?

Emergency stickies with fewer than 400 comments in the original sticky? Mods are going full Volcker.

We are going full Bernanke. Volker would have cut the stickies to one per week until people stopped making so many comments. Then after the sub slowed to a halt he would have returned the daily sticky to watch people rejoice in comments.

Is anyone familiar with "shipping the good apples out"? Just curious if it's a common thing talked about.

I'm not watching the debate but I can give a Brazilian perspective. As a poor nation, we've always exported our best products and kept the crappy ones. Coffee, cars, you name it. Top-grade coffee is still called "export type", BTW. So if it's about that what you're talking about, it's a really common thing down there in Brazil.

[–]urnbabyurnPezzonovante[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Wasn't in the debate. Just something I was wanting to discuss.

If you have high quality goods and low quality goods, when adding shipping costs, the high quality goods become relatively cheaper which means the substitution effect pushes consumption towards higher quality.

I think the issue with coffee is that there are two kinds: commodity coffee and single origin (boutique) which are somewhat separate markets. Commodity coffee is priced uniformly whereas single origin varies by quality. The boutique market is relatively new, so perhaps it's just that quality as a part of international demand is less important.

[–]lord_of_the_rallyPraxxing my way through college 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

The thing about exporting high-quality coffee is actually from the 19th century. I found a blog post by a very good Brazilian economist on exporting high quality goods. You may want to put it on Google Translator and give it a look.

Oklahoma is killing Nebraska in trade. They are being killed. When I'm governor, it will be a Beautiful thing. I'll put tariffs on goods from Oaky. The Oakies love me.
