R.A.P.E

religion, abortion, politics and economics.

Avoid discussing rape too.

Economics doesn’t seem as big of a thing as the other 3. Anyone who’s nerdy enough to talk economics without making it political could probably have a pretty good discussion. I vote we change it to Elephants. Religion, Abotion, Politics, Elephants, or Rape.

The fact i can tell you using economic theory its a good idea to make people unemployed as the cost of living increases, that rent controls are a really bad idea, and even ignoring profit its probably wise to increase the costs of tickets to shows and events makes me very unpopular

Economics is poorly understood by the vast majority of Americans. To most people, it is purely political.

Economics is purely political.
Politics is almost entirely about allocation of money and trying to influence the economy.
