You can literally look at any official numbers out there, none of them claim the US was in depression from Q1 through Q2, which was what our bet was about. You are clearly going back on our terms at this point... It was stated several times that we would use the official numbers posted by the government. Even if you use unofficial numbers posted somewhere else you can't pull any that show the United States being in a depression from Q1 through Q2. You clearly lost the bet now be a man of your word and honor the bet... because at this point you are making it look like it's very much about the 100 HIVE that you are not paying...
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I wouldn't go on about honour too much if I was you - lol
Yeah I'm being a dick, but so are you...
Not in depression? - Provide some figures then...
You don't even HAVE a government - you have a law suit in motion and and some old fart with dementia being set up as a scapegoat for the total economic meltdown that is occurring as we speak.
I could just as easily suggest you transfer 100HP to my account because I clearly won the bet.
The unemployment rate went nuts last year and it's plain where that leads - are you in a state of cognitive dissonance?
This could be a good blog post - maybe we should debate this and have a vote?
How am I being a dick?! You lost the bet by every way measurable... pay the bet. That figure you posted above is for April 2020. Our bet was from January 2021 through June 2021. I agree things are not great, but per the terms of our bet, the US was not in a measurable depression during that time period, which means you lost the bet.
You are being a dick by constantly implying that I can't afford 100 hive, and making out i don't remember what the bet was.
Well that must be the case since you are not honoring the bet you have lost... Look I get it, the world is effed going forward, but for the time period we bet what you stated would happen did not happen. Just pay the bet and we can make another if you want...
Ship the 100 HIVE over to @jrcornel when you have it together.
Post data from three independant sources showing the american GDP and employments stats for 2021 Q1 and Q2 when you have it together!
Crap from the fake US gov doesn't count.
We literally said that we would use the official numbers... At this point it doesn't seem to matter what I post you will say it's a lie or that you don't believe it. We stated the terms of the bet very clearly and you lost. I even upvoted you to help show some goodwill with a decent sized upvote... now it's your turn to pay the terms of the bet.
But just in case, here's some sites showing the numbers:
