Twitter bans Trump along with Facebook and other social media companies. But at a great cost. Their stocks fell due to a lack of confidence from Investors. the attack on capitol hill had made people accuse President Donald J Trump of inciting it and social media sites banned him from his accounts. Investors are worried because the lack of trump may lead to less engagement, an exodus of conservatives from the twitter platform and a rise in the regulation of social media companies. Facebook and Twitter have been accused of a liberal bias and of censorship. Is big tech censorship a threat? Twitter has also been censoring trump on the 2020 US election on claims of voter fraud Carson Alworth Video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhFxa6EgF9U Sources: Twitter loses $5 Billion: https://www.aa.com.tr/en/economy/twitter-loses-5b-shares-down-12-since-trump-ban/2106401# Facebook Business Insider $34 Billion: https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/facebook-stock-price-president-trump-ban-capital-riots-zuckerberg-fb-2021-1-1029956600 3 Reasons why investors are worried about the Trump ban: https://www.fastcompany.com/90593224/twitter-stock-trump-ban PEW data: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2021/01/15/how-lawmakers-social-media-activity-changed-in-the-days-after-the-u-s-capitol-riot/ Market Watch Article: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/twitters-trump-ban-could-hurt-user-engagement-but-appeal-to-advertisers-analyst-say-11610384305 State boycott article: https://www.wflx.com/2021/01/14/florida-lawmaker-calling-state-boycott-social-media/ BBC Qanon article: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-55638558 Twitter German shares article: https://guardian.ng/business-services/twitter-suffers-loss-as-million-boycott-whatsapp/ Angela Merkel: https://www.aol.co.uk/news/2021/01/12/angela-merkel-sees-twitter-s-cancelling-of-donald-trump-as-prob/?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAANaUjsu1KDlHV1Gle2L3L2RgBdLQHd5XToTwrjCiAiude3vQZPWKo4eOIxE0ldg13MzmLG-XmZpkR3Y_zE0WVvxYrHHClUshkOpWojSeFlKzaEzixzeK5FjJNVFoYuFsasdiI7wGy15xb-P3z_m3Ezho73Z5tmi2FRzwy8nUd_MI New York Post World Leaders article: https://nypost.com/2021/01/12/merkel-world-leaders-speak-out-against-trumps-twitter-ban/ #Trump #Twitter #CapitolHill

With rising carbon emissions threatening the Earth’s climate, multiple solutions have been proposed to deal with this predicament. A potential one is emissions trading systems or carbon markets, which has already been experimented by the EU and there are already 64 carbon pricing instruments in the world generating $53 billion. But now China, one of the world’s fastest growing and biggest economies, is implementing their own emissions trading system on a national scale. This is ambitious and unprecedented as it is the largest emissions system covering 2225 coal and gas plants as well as 4 billion in carbon emissions. This may be necessary considering that China makes up 30% of world emissions. But how does an emissions trading system work?

Kyle Kulinski has left the Young Turks. But why? Kyle Kulinski is a progressive commentator and Youtuber who has contributed massively to his side of the isle, boasting a subscriber count of nearly a million subs and co-founded the Justice Democrats, a group of political candidates that include AOC. He was one of the first political Youtubers that I was exposed to a decade ago, and despite watching only a few videos back then, I agreed more with his politically left takes but hated his pro-atheism stances. When I became more political years later, I rediscovered him and found him to be one of the smarter lefties that very few Conservatives responded to or at least very prominent ones. His more politically incorrect approach in comparison to his fellow progressives in conjunction with what I saw as smarter argumentation made me simultaneously a little intimidated by him and also somewhat respect him. He also seemed quite principled. An example is him criticizing lefties who refuse to acknowledge the positives of Rand Paul’s anti-war stances. So it was extremely surprising to find that not only did Kyle co-found the Justice Democrats with the Young Turks but was an affiliate member of their network. He joined the Young Turks back in 2013 and had quite a high opinion of them at the time.

In an era of significant climate awareness, there has been anxieties of potential rising world poverty. But how has it changed recently? Has world poverty increased of decreased? Was Thomas Malthus right? What does the UN report say? Are there too many humans? Is the population too big? Is there too much climate alarmism? How will this affect the environment? What has happened to the global poor in the last few decades? Are there more nuanced ways of measuring poverty overall than extreme poverty?

Yes, seriously, Trump's Tax cut plan has increased certain taxes. This is due to the cap on salt deductions so Americans in high tax states cannot further decrease their taxes. This disproportionately affects blue states more. What do you think of the tax increases?

On March, President Biden enacted a $1.9 Trillion stimulus to kickstart a US economy recovering from Covid-19, with its main feature being a $1400 check being sent to everyone below a certain income threshold. Named the American Rescue Plan, it will extend unemployment benefits to September, raise the annual child tax credit from 2000 to 3600 dollars, incentivise employers to give paid sick leave and provide money to testing centres, vaccine campaigns, schools, universities, businesses, and local governments.

In 2017, President Donald Trump and the Republicans passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Acts which cut taxes across the board but what the the economic effects on the US/America. Good thing I can explain. There are multiple facets to this act such as lowering the corporation tax rate from 35% to 21% as welas general reductions in income taxes. Unemployment per job opening is low, real median income has significantly rose. Is Barrack Obama or Donald Trump responsible for the strong economy before covid-19? How do low tax states fair against high tax states due to the salt reductions?

Happy Father’s Day. Today we are going to explore the economics and data behind Fatherhood and how it affects society going forward. There has been an increase in the number of single parent homes in the West, but I chose to focus on fatherhood as most absentee parents are fathers. In the present day, according to a NCBI sample 24.1% of fathers live away from one or more children. This was provided to me by the lovable centrist Layman whose Youtube channel and twitter are linked below so please check it out. This can be attributed to the high out of wedlock birth rates with more millennials than boomers having a baby first before marriage. This is interesting as 86% of millennials who do marry first before having kids end up in the upper or middle-income distribution. The same cannot be said for millennials had a baby before marriage where 47% of them became poor. And poverty doesn’t seem to be a blockade to benefitting from marriage as 71% of millennials who marry first and growing up in the bottom third of the income distribution achieved upper of middle-income status later in life.

Did Trump kill 400,000? This video is a few months old but many of the points still stand. Is Trump responsible for the high US coronavirus numbers? There have been at least 200,000 covid-19 deaths and Trump has made some mistakes such as downplaying the pandemic and cut the coronavirus response team. But is Trump actually to blame for the high coronavirus numbers? Well not exactly. Why does the US have a high unemployment rate compared to other countries? And how does Andrew Cuomo fit into all of this?

Brexit has been significantly influenced by the Brexit debate so this video will explore its economic impacts on the UK once its leaves the EU as well as how it affects immigration. Immigration wasn’t a contentious and top issue until May 2004, when the Eastern European countries Poland, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia and Slovenia joined the European Union. For the purposes of this video, they will be known as EU-8 countries. EU-2 countries Romania and Bulgaria joined in 2007. The EU has made up a significant portion of immigration into the UK over the years with such as 31% of immigration in 2004 and 66% in 2015. The EU-8 immigration meant that annual net immigration rose from on average 35000 before 2004 to 172,000 in 2007. This greater scale in immigration led to a movement to stop freedom of movement which was an aspect of the EU single market and when reform failed, the Brexit referendum was held.

In the midst of the Brexit negotiations, the UK-Japan trade deal has recently been finalised. But how does this affect the UK, especially its economy as well as its wider impact on Brexit? To understand this, we need to define some terms for international trade. This video will explain the economic effects of the Brexit UK-Japan trade deal. How has Liz Truzz negotiated the whole deal? What are its caveats? How does it affect specific British industry like pork, salmon and beef. How will it affect the wider Brexit negotiations. Why do we still need n EU free trade deal. How does it affect Japanese companies like Nissan and its British Sunderland plant? What is the point of tariffs? Are tariffs good for economies? Why do businesses want no tariffs? Why do businesses want the UK to negotiate a free trade deal with the European Union(EU) without tariffs?
