>stock market is 'up' after endless QE
nearly meaningless. the stock market is only up because some of the trillions that are pumped into the world economy are finding their way into the stock market. the vast majority of entities buying stocks right now are corporations, not people.
stock market indexes do NOT adjust for inflation. they should basically always be going up during near-zero interest rates.
i cringe when people talk about increasing stock numbers as if it were an accomplishment. it's akin to someone diluting his cocaine with milk powder and acting like something significant happened.

to clarify: stocks go up for legitimate reasons too of course. it's just that for stock indexes to be up overall is not a sign of anything significant, in itself.
reminder that the USD has lost over 98% of its value since 1913. if the stock market doesn't increase accordingly from the inflation, it doesn't really mean anything.

I don't know how things are in Norway, but in the US, people are obsessed with the stock market because people can avoid taxes by investing in the stock market through a scheme known as a 401k.
There's nothing inherently good about a stock market versus another investment, but politicians and the media focus on this because boomers have created a system where boomers put a ton of retirement savings into the stock market with a long-hold strategy.
Thus, politicians try to prop up this long-hold strategy at the expense of other more sane and rational decisions. For example, in 2007-2008, many of the boomer-propped-up stocks collapsed, and they created TARP to loot hundreds of millions from the treasury to save their own sorry asses.

whoops, meant hundreds of billions, as in $700,000,000,000's

>$700,000,000,000
this was the stupidest thing which i have ever witnessed. let all of the banks collapse and use the 700 billion to insure people's bank accounts, home ownership (gov takes over the loan and person pays gov at low interest rate), etc etc
fuck god damn i get mad everytime i am reminded about this

700000000 works out to 2.3 million per person at a pop of 300 million

Ameriburger education everyone.
Not in support of boomers but thats a pretty misleading graph OP. Doesn't show the actual amount of physicians and administrators, just the growth percentage over time. Looks like about 100% increase in physicians, thats not insignificant. How many administrators were there before? 1? Now there's 35? Definitely a large increase but compared to the increase in the amount of physicians or the size of the medical industry as a whole, its possible that was necessary.
Idk Im just a dumb millenial.

Same thing in academia, unfortunately.
The worst thing is many of the things academics used to do (in handling admissions, course documentation etc.) is not handled by those administrators, but said administrators don't know shit about the courses and need to constantly bug the academics about it anyway.
So the academic still ends up doing most of the same work with the admins just making sure it's all formatted and filed correctly and dealing with other window dressing. Except now instead of the academic being able to organise his own work and deal with this stuff properly, he just keeps getting distracted by confused admin scum at random intervals.
