An explanation of how I see things

If you haven't read the 'About Me' section, I talked about how I have a background in economics and that I have lived in various nations through to my informative years. Thus, I have seen a set of outcomes through different policies and institutional settings.

Ultimately, how one believes the world should operate, is highly dependent on your own philosophical beliefs. In essence, how much do you care about certain facts about society? The economy? And these beliefs are formed through your own life experiences. See the circular argument?

Now, I am no economist or the like (one of my failures! HAHA for those of you that think it's funny. By the way a side comment on being an economist - usually they possess a PhD, or they have worked in a job with the label "economist"; the point is, they have been accepted by economists overall.)

To get to the point, the way I see things is by asking: "what does it mean about outcomes? how much do I care about said outcomes existing?"

These two questions are more complex than you think, but it is a starting point to brainstorm.

Then there is the issue of how to go about answering those questions. Just to remind everyone, I use my economics knowledge to do so. This raises a lot of issues, because different disciplines and subjects don't agree on how to answer the questions. Differences in disciplinary approaches are beyond my control, thus I use my existing knowledge and skills.

It is really easy to just go down a political rabbit hole of things being right wing or left wing. Economists don't like to deal with politics, and understandably so. Just focus on the positive instead of the subjective.
