I don’t mind people being wealthy, if they are just going to indulge their personal needs. The problem becomes when they have enough economic power that they can enter into personal economic negotiations with other nations that may run counter to the needs of their own nation. It would be bad enough if even a single Sociopathic Oligarchs did this, but imagine if there were multiple people doing it.
What the current Sociopathic Oligarchs are doing is bad enough, but they are still managing to operate like human beings, more or less. What will happen if the billionaire class throws off a straight up psychopath who has no problem killing mass numbers of people, or even likes it? It is only a matter of time before one of these people emerges, with enough money to indulge his perversions, and also to buy his way out of any trouble he may get into.
We have to anticipate these inevitabilities, and avoid them preemptively. We have to stop waiting for easily predictable problems to happen, and only THEN start to address them.
Hoarders are drawn to hoard certain things that make sense to them - cats, newspapers, old cars, guitars (my personal issue), etc.
If whatever you are hoarding starts impacting those around you, you are encouraged to get professional help, but if you are a business person, and hoard money, then you are considered successful, and they put you in charge.
If Cats could become legal tender, weird old ladies would take over the world.
Okay, but Cuomo spent triple what Zohran spent, and got his ass kicked.
Tell you what, just distribute all that money to your employees, and the result of the election will be the same as if you blew it all on a loser.
I know a few Venezuelans who are citizens, and they tell me they aren’t worried, but I am. I’ve heard they are review citizenship and green card applications, and looking for discrepancies, and if they find them, they are pulling their citizenships. They don’t even respect birthright citizenship, which is in the Constitution. They aren’t going to respect the citizenship process.
Bottom line, if you were born somewhere else, they want you gone. After that, they’ll be going after actual citizens they don’t like.
I took up guitar during Covid and got obsessed. Now I am buying up beat up old guitars, cleaning, repairing, restringing them, and reselling them at a profit. It feels great to take an old guitar that may have been neglected for decades, and put it back in the hands of someone who will give it a new life.
Wow, never saw that coming. Not.
I don’t trust ANY politician to wage war, unless it were absolutely necessary. Even then, I would NEVER trust a Republican. They have a long record of waging war in order to boost the profits of the military-industrial complex. Dems aren’t much more trustworthy, but at least I’ll listen.
As for HitlerPig, no fucking way he should be allowed to manage a war. He’s too fucking stupid and incompetent (as are everyone in his administration charged with fighting wars) as well as the most prolific traitor in American history. He is nothing more than Putin’s muscle, and he will purposely lose a war if he thinks there’s money and/or power in it for him.
My son is draft age, and there is absolutely no way he will be fighting in a HitlerPig war.
We’ll never see a lockdown again. If there’s another pandemic, millions will die, and MAGA won’t care.
Somebody get Fetterman some help.
Even if I wanted to see Iran get blasted, I wouldn’t trust HitlerPig to do it, or to manage the war that would result. Wait until someone responsible and intelligent is in office.
They just want a meat-grinder they can send illegal immigrants, dissidents, gays, welfare recipients, liberals, protesters, etc. through.
Hey, Dad! Check it out, I finally got a real job!..Uh, what’s “Counter-Terrorism” mean?
Yeah, the Iranian government will probably just take it as the prank it was meant to be. Just boys being boys! No need to get revenge.
/S, dummy.
Excellent response.
I’m just commenting to say that they’ve determined that there is no rise in radiation around the sites they struck, so either there was no radioactive material stored there, or they didn’t impact the sites as badly as they are claiming. If there was radioactive material, it remained contained. They may still have to rebuild their facilities, but they still have the most important element, the uranium.
Release Ebola or some such thing in America, and the MAGAs will make sure no laws or mandates are passed to prevent it’s spread. 50% of the population will be gone within a year, destroying our society without firing a shot.
In the history of the world, it has only been a very short window during the late 20th/ early 21 st century that civilians were not considered fair game in war, although they get slaughtered anyway. Even with civilians being off limits, as recently as WW2, Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East, civilians have been targets either by design, by atrocity, or by proximity.
If there’s a war, don’t think you’re getting off the hook just because you’re a civilian. During war, the old adage “If your not with us, you’re against us” becomes weaponized.
Won’t someone rid me of these pesky Sociopathic Oligarchs?
All the Sociopathic Oligarchs in the same place at once? Look, I’d normally be against this sort of thing, but if someone wants to drop a nuke on Venice, I could excuse it just this once.
Trickle Down Economics was a huge success for the Aristocrats, and a disaster for the working class. Obviously, they want to keep the system that has worked so well for them, but it is unsustainable, and it is coming to an end. They are facing two choices:
Trickle UP Economics, in which more money is given to the workers, who will then spend it, stimulating the economy. Every time this has been tried (such as during Covid), it was wildly successful. The money eventually makes its way into the hands of the Sociopathic Oligarchs and Transnational Corporations anyway, but at least it greases the cogs of the economy on its journey upwards.
That would be the best way to handle the economy for everybody. The workers have more spending power, and the rich get richer. Everybody’s happy.
OR
Robin Hood Economics, which is “Take from the Rich, and give to the Poor.” This usually follows a brutally violent rebellion in which the wealthy do not prevail. It is usually very uncomfortable for them and their families. The wealthy would rather avoid this one.
Of course, they want to keep on going with the plan that has made them wealthy, but we have to show them that the gravy train has come to an end, and we will not be indulging their hoarding mental illness any longer.
