Why do you lie often on here then try to accuse the Boss that he's a liar? Are you trying to be this Forum's mafioso Union rep?

Abstract
Quote:
This paper addresses the question under which circumstances unemployment can be lower if unions bargain over wages and employment in a general equilibrium framework. Thereby, it turns out that the unemployment rate may negatively depend on the wage rate, if the unemployment compensation scheme contains a constant real term in addition to the replacement ratio component. This is, compared with a pure replacement ratio scheme, the more plausible formalization of the real world’s compensation systems, at least for European countries. Besides the theoretical analysis, the paper also derives political implications by identifying the relevant parameters for the decision on whether weakening unions will be a good strategy for an economy to overcome its unemployment problem.

FD uses the exact same template across about 5 separate threads here:

1. Parrot a simplistic and baseless right wing propaganda claim and declares it as etched in stone gospel truth.

2. Ridicule any requests for actual evidence for the claim as a waste of time because it is unnecessary to substantiate the most basic economics 101 which no economist in existence has ever disagreed with.

3. twist all the evidence presented to him that refutes the BS claim into a useless hair splitting exercise about semantics - that have no bearing whatsoever on the actual meaning of the evidence - which so obviously refutes his BS claim

4. scream "liar" like a raving fool at anyone who points out that his claim is BS, and has been proven so

If the evidence does not refute my claim, it is not hair splitting Gandalf. i did not ask for evidence that merely "feels" like it refutes my claim. This is a basic union trick, to get people to ignore facts and shout lies loudly enough to delude themselves.

Your claim is simplistic and stupid.

It totally ignores the demonstrated ability of unions to successfully negotiate agreements that counteract such negative impacts as unemployment - like how Australia's unions did when they negotiated the Accord. An agreement that actually reduced unemployment:

Quote:
The first Accord secured for all workers a 4.3% pay rise (September 1983), a 4.1% pay rise (April 1984), and a deferred 2.6% pay rise over the initial 3-year period, improvements in family payments and child care, and the introduction of Medicare. Unemployment also fell from over 10% (in the 2nd quarter of 1983) to just under 8%

Sounds more like a conservative strategy.

Just like you do.

bugger me gnads, I almost missed that quote.

FD literally couldn't describe his behaviour here across about 4 separate threads more perfectly.
