Absolutely @tt53 ; Argentina, redux. The two richest countries in South America devolved from capitalism which creates taxable surpluses thru total socialism ultimately to dictators and destitute. There is no shortage of oil in Venezuela. Operating decisions in socialist countries are made higher and higher up the ranks of authority; usually a function of the criticality of the decision necessary, due to things becoming more and more screwed up by earlier bad decisions made too far from the operating expertise actually doing the job. Thatâs the opposite of where and how decisions are made in for-profit operations. The oil is still there, in the ground, under equipment that doesnât work because someone said ârun itâ instead of listening to the operator who said, âwe need to shut down and fix this while itâs still reparableâ. Workers who see this kind of thinking and can escape to another company do; or another country. Those that are not as conscientious hang around. Eventually nobody knows how to keep the operation running smoothly. Venezuela.
Exactly the same progression from prosperity to absolutely poor from South America to USSR to Africa, time after time the same insane process: From farmland stolen from rich owners, split up and given to wannabe farmers who donât know how to farm and who donât have the initial savings to invest in the farms, the land alone is worth nothing and will produce nothing. Just having worked on a farm doesnât make a farmer. Peasants who have no savings canât be expected to start with nothing but land and succeed. It takes experience, and having worked on a farm is good, but it takes an initial investment, too, and without that start-up cash the land will produce next to nothing, often not enough to feed the farmerâs family. Revolutionaries may be good at killing people in their way and taking possession of property; -farms or businesses, but mere possession is not productivity.
The same process of taking ownership away from producers and failing to produce has been duplicated by socialists over and over and over again. Dictators setting prices for products based upon ~desired levels~ that bear no relationship to costs of production. Decisions made at the top by people who have the ~best interests~ of the citizens in mind instead of an owner who needs prices to cover costs or he loses everything; one decision precludes products on the store shelves and other guarantees products on the shelves. Which is best for the country? Profitable companies are taxable and grow to hire more workers and produce more goods, usually at better prices, too.
âThat government which governs least, governs best.â Socialism fails everywhere itâs tried.
This is not a good analogy; Canada and the US have been two separate countries from the get-go. Neither English-speaking Canadians nor French-speaking Canadians rose up against their respective mother countries.
Taiwan, originally a vast island inhabited by a Ploynesian-speaking people, was grandually colonized by the ethnic Chinese settlers across a relatively narrow strait in the last few centuries who eventually outnumbered the original inhabitants.
Therefore, Taiwan has always been China, with the exception of a short period of time where the Japanese occupied the island militarily.
Chang Kai Shek escaped to Taiwan after his army on the mainland lost the war with the communists led by Mao. The Rothschilds always finance two sides in wars, just like they financed Nazi Germany and the Allies, through which the international banksters guarantee their profits no matter which side wins the war.
Letâs say hypothetically that the Rothschilds financed Germany 49% and financed the Allies 51%. With this slight difference, the banksters can determine the result of the war while making the extent of death and devastation more large-scale, thus guaranteeing their future profits. The more peole die and the more destruction of cities and villages occurs, the better. I think I mentioned to you the Rothschild motto: Buy while blood runs in the streets. (They make sure that blood runs in the streets!)
The Rothschilds did the same in China. In the civil war on the mainland, they financed both sides. Perhaps Chang Kai Shekâs army was superior, but the Rothschilds had another ace in the hole: the invading Japanese Imperial Army.
Faced with the Japanese brutality, the Chinese populace leaned more toward communist Mao and his Peopleâs Liberation Army, just as what the Rothschilds wanted.
Trump needs to put the UN on his target list as needing grave, gross, maximal recombobulation and reduction of scale and interest in every endeavor they have their dirty fingers in. In my memory, they have never done anything right, anywhere, and could be replaced by a roll of paper towel. They are a money pit into which dollars are poured and surly intellectuals emerge with agendas that run contrary to good sense, and any US agenda. The US agenda is only rarely not also exactly or very similar to many other countriesâ agendas. The fact that we proudly put forward for and to the rest of the world our agendas as worthy of adoption is objectionable on its face to some other countries that would oppose us if we declared that the sky is blue is immaterial. Lots of the govts of the rest of the world are run by crooks and incompetents worse than ours. We can compare outcomes, and outshine them all, so we press on, regardless. The fact that the UNâs agendas are almost always contrary to ours is a reflection on how screwed-up the UN is. Throw the bums out; they can take up residence in The Hague. The UN building can become a condo.
You wouldnât want to live there. The Rockefellers donated the real estate to enforce their agenda of the New World Order. I heard it was a former slaughter house and thereâs plenty of bad vibes there. LOL
Itâs no secret that the Rockefellers let Leon Trotsky live in New Jersey and sent him back to Russia with tons of gold to undertake a communist revolution there.
So, the building extends the traditional use of the grounds as a slaughter house. OK; then how about condos with the first floor reserved for steakhouses? I like that! Third generation slaughter house use! I like tradition!
It is incredible anybody wants to vote for Biden for all this shit-show. As Stalin once remarked, itâs not the voters but who counts the votes that matters.
Same for the polls. Itâs not the data but WHO collects the data that matters.
The polls are steering devices that the Dems have always used to hornswaggle the Dems, others are traditionally wary. They have a routine that gives them, I think, false confidence. They have polls that reflect nothing but they correct them by election day so you canât correlate how wrong they are for most of the race. The GOP magically closes the gap in the last few weeks, so nobody can pin anything on the Dems, but not many people believe them. I think most people read the crowds. Biden could walk down 5th Ave and no one would notice, except maybe someone getting a shot off.
I know several neighbors who have Biden 24 bumber stickers and lawn signs . Also a group of teacher about 30 ALL liberals who hate Trump and praise dip-shit Biden .
There is a stable well of Dem leaning left, labor, educators, govt workers, liberals all, et al, of about 35% of the country. They show up in every poll and will vote that way, period. Thatâs not who we have to convince, theyâre lost to us. Thereâs a comparable bunch of the other side, clinging to our guns & bibles that are lost to lefties. The middle of the road people who call themselves independents, but are in reality those without a fixed set of beliefs are those that need to be campaigned to and swayed to the winnerâs side.
You win or lose by the numbers of the other sideâs voters that refuse to vote as instructed plus the % of the middlers above 50% that you get. They donât show up in polls, and think a lot of both of the groups in Wisconsin & Minnesota will dominate there. And Maine, Georgia, Illinois,too. The Left coast has a lot of disgruntled voters, but they have The Machine that can ~change~ things. South Carolina can be won by Tim Scott as VP. With him on the ticket, thatâs all middling blacks will need, and theyâre an important fraction in too many places to count. Add the Latino voters who paid the price to become citizens the hard way are irked by 7,000,000 illegals clogging their basements & neighborhoods, and can turn the tide in the southwest. I like the math.
Undoubtedly she would have been privy to the cheating that would guarantee her victory. Remember the polls? How wrong they were! Thatâs what you get when you slant the polls; rosy feedback that isnât real, and you get misled, too.
According to vote tallies from The Associated Press, Clinton amassed 65,844,610 votes across all 50 states and Washington D.C., 48.2 percent of all votes cast. Trump received 62,979,636 votes, 46.1 percent of all votes cast.
We live in a republic. We do not live in a democracy. Itâs been that way for 230 years and wonât be changed, ever, because that would guarantee that the Dems would always win elections. Do we need to talk about this?
Letâs speak to the likelihood of Biden-Trump debates in June and September. There are not enough drugs in the whole country to keep Biden alert and coherent 30 minutes, or even more than 5 minutes at a time. He will fall down go boom just in the nick of time and not recover sufficiently until he withdraws in a deal that guarantees a Nixon-Ford forgiveness plan that will be revealed a day or two in advance of the Dem convention. Kamalamala gets into the record books as #50, and graciously gavels in the convention which has already chosen a winner to go thru the motions of looking like the convention has spoken. It will be just a coincidence that Gavin will have granted Hunter a full pardon on his state of California State charges on tax evasion, et al. That will put the wide open ticket not so open, so to speak: Gavin; dark horse by a nose⌠Business as usual.
While weâre at it, the Summer of Hate will be evolving to peak at the Dem convention. (They need time to polish up their game) That will likely be closed with a one-block wide extra zone of exclusion surrounding the United Center in Chicago, which is easy because of the size of the facility which is mostly already fenced. All out-of-state delegates will be bused in from hotels and only the local yokels will be parking on-site which will allow water-tight security, 360°. All protestor confrontations will occur far from attendees and only very few of the sneakiest Palestinian Murderer Supporters will make it thru with attention-getting paraphernalia, so itâll all look orderly and proper. Protestors will be dealing with every cop in Illinois not otherwise spoken for and they will handle it like pros, with only moderate interference by Chicago Mayor, Whatâs His Name. Or, translated into the vernacular; the cops will have their hands tied until too late for anything that resembles control; business as usual.
