Wage inflation generally has an inverse relation to unemployment. When wages are inflated, there is a temporary rise in unemployment and then the rate of unemployment tends to shrink. Conversely, deflating wages will temporarily lower the unemployment rate before it begins to rise

You've got a point there, buddy.

However, just 'cause our money is worthless doesn't mean that the crew and the captain aren't getting paid.

Hell, the captain might really be just a captain, and even though he's 'a great man' he might not be the top dog.

['Buddy'. Reminds him of Togusa.]

Good points, both of them. I don't relish the thought of someone hiring Redd.

Thanks, I try to keep my points sharp. [There's his wisecrack, and now to be semi-serious.]

It could be possible he's doing it out of the goodness of his heart, but I seriously doubt that. So either he's getting paid to do it, somehow, or he's just... off his gourd. [Which he hasn't discounted either.]

[electronichound]

Or he's running on a set of assumptions and information that we don't have access to. He still might be mad in that scenario.

[hadalotofsugar]

True.

The goal would, then, to find out what that info or assumptions are, but I doubt that asking nicely is going to get us the answers.
