Tranternomics 

Tranternian economics, sometimes Tranterianism, named for the economist Professor Tranter) is a singular macroeconomic theory about how in the short run – and especially during recession – economic output should always be determined by whimsical demand. In the Tranterian view, aggregate demand Should always exceed the productive capacity of the economy; instead, it is influenced by a total disregard to budget, always behaves erratically, affecting production, employment, and sobriety.
I sourced this wine and ting for the £300 That I borrowed... but I got it all on tick, and put the £300 on a three legged in the 2:30 at Chapstow that’s 10-1. So I’m £3600 in profit thanks to the Tranternomics book ledger system.

Taternomics

The effect of an artificial and exponential increase in the price of certain bourbons brought on mainly by internet hype and hoarding of bottles by those looking not to drink them, but solely to resell them for profit. These bottles are often adorned by custom stickers and the increase in price typically has little to do with the actual quality of the bourbon inside.
Due to taternomics, that $50 bottle of Blanton’s is hard to find for under $100.
