It will make, by itself, INFLATION WORSE.


Good, Eve needs some price inflation. It's also good for high sec. Maybe you can find something else to do other than shoot rats. As prices go up, the value in shooting rats goes down. Instead, maybe build ammo, mine something, trade over priced ships to rat chasing people? There's an entire sandbox out there that does not involve shooting red + symbols.

The goons will be seigeing Jita waiting for you to come out or your hapless 'customers' trying to come in to buy anything

Yeah but with all the warning who will actually be stupid enough to fall for it? Also, why the hell the warning?

Can't wait for the goons to be banned for breaking the EULA (thou shalt not try to break the game/intentionally cause undue strain on the servers, etc), and frankly nothing of value will be lost. Spoiled children need consequences. EVE is not "their" game, there are only 8000 of them, and most of them are alts.


Yeah gl with that... how is PVP in a game that allows nonconsentual PVP breaking the game intentionally?

Plus, unlike real life the economy going **** up isn't necessarily bad.

In Eve, the economy going mad makes things interesting. In real life, the economy going **** up means I can't afford whiskey, her0in and hookers.

Not true herion prices have been going down because US soldiers destroyed the the Taliban ... in July 2000, Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar, collaborating with the United Nations to eradicate heroin production in Afghanistan, declared that growing poppies was un-Islamic, resulting in one of the world's most successful anti-drug campaigns. As a result of this ban, opium poppy cultivation was reduced by 91% from the previous year's estimate of 82,172 hectares. The ban was so effective that Helmand Province, which had accounted for more than half of this area, recorded no poppy cultivation during the 2001 season.[ The Bush administration paid a 43 million dollar 'eradication' reward payment to the Taliban in 2001.

As someone who doesn't genuinely take her0in, or copy and paste random crap from wikipedia in an attempt to appear intelligent, I was completely unaware of this amazing information.

Seemed to work out OK. vOv

This is a joke, right? The New Deal was an economic disaster.

If be "economic disaster" you mean "turned America into the richest, most powerful nation on the planet", then sure.

This, tbh. The New Deal only propped the economy up. FDR paused it for a time and it went right back down the drain. Military production for WW2 is what brought us out of the depression, not the New Deal.

Without all the new roads and bridges built under the New Deal, that military production would have been basically impossible.

I'm not saying it didn't help. I'm saying people give it too much credit, and that it did not bring us out if the depression, which is the impression I got from his original post about it. If we hadn't gotten involved in WW2 when we did the New Deal would have been a massive failure.

Yeah, just look at Stockholm...Roll

The fact of the matter is that precious capitalism, driven by the war, could not have occurred without the New Deal. Capitalism had utterly failed and there was no real wealth - anywhere. Let alone production.

Therefore, the New Deal brought us out of The Depression.

Subsequent events were subsequent.
