      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Braxton McCoy

      LOL, yes, members of the middle and lower class have no options other than to buy a $75,000 luxury vehicle My household income is in the <small single digit> percent, and my wife and I share one $5,000 used car. Luxury goods be luxury goods, yo.https://twitter.com/braxton_mccoy/status/1317146003510763520 …

      2/ It's hilarious that you accuse me of missing the point even as you confuse luxury goods with Veblen goods, and don't realize that one can get an F-350 without all the options for about half the price. I didn't MISS the point; I CONTRADICTED it. https://twitter.com/CrewdsonStephen/status/1317196078102515712 …

      ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Braxton McCoy

      3/ I'm confused - I had THOUGHT I had said that the vehicle in question - a F-350 with the Lariat upgrade package, at twice the base price of an F-350, was a luxury good, but APPARENTLY what I said was "all trucks are luxury goods"?!?! Wacky.https://twitter.com/braxton_mccoy/status/1317194588222672898 …

      This might be hard to understand, but trucks are not luxury items to farms and ranches.

      4/ You're getting closer to correct. But in your original tweet you said "luxury (Veblen) good". I get why you did it. It feels good to awe the normies with buzzwords, the way you did when you defined luxury...that is NOT a definition of luxury good https://twitter.com/CrewdsonStephen/status/1317196939205791753 …

      5/ The definition of luxury good is a good that one purchases more of as income increases. Veblen goods are a SUBTYPE of luxury good, or perhaps OVERLAP with luxury goods.

      That's the definition of a normal good, though

      I elided some words > a luxury good (or upmarket good) is a good for which demand increases more than proportionally as income rises, so that expenditures on the good become a greater proportion of overall spending. but many goods are NOT as you say - consumption drops
