2024 Presidential Candidate Talk

Do you think embargoes and sanctions may be playing a part? Ask ordinary Venezuelans and they will tell you there getting their food, Things that aren’t available are being affected by the sanctions. Do you honestly believe those who plan U.S. foreign policy actually give a shit if they make others suffer and die?

Really? You have any proof to back up your statement?

I don’t even know about that. I’d just say those with the abilities to become Doctors are more scarce.

How the fuck did you think socialism worked? Good lord, if ignorance carried any mass - you’d collapse in on yourself like a neutron star.

Tinky-Winky 2024!

At least when tele-tubbies mumble and bumble around hugging wrong people and falling down, its kinda funny.

This shit we have going on now isn’t funny.

This idea just emerged when I was thinking back to the old days, when big news was that the tele-tubbies were gay or something.

Good times, the early 2k’s were.

And the surprise shocker that the rainbow power ranger was straight as a cue ball… after we found out the pink ranger was female, black one was played by a black guy, yellow one by an Asian…

Anyhoo… how bout that crazy weather we’ve been having, huh?

It has been a little nuts.

Not like castoli nuts, but more like- the funny looking pistachio that you aren’t too sure about, but eat it anyways- nuts.

How the fuck do you think sanctions worked?

Delightful U.S. led sanction on Venezuela. Blocking them from paying suppliers in relation to agriculture.

You are just another victim of the most propagandized country on Earth. Good job! Don’t read contrary views or listen to independent news sources, just keep believing the corporate class.

All brought to you by capitalistic countries, not socialism. But yeah keep believing the propaganda instead of educating yourself. And you call others ignorant.

No no no no no. You’re not getting out of this one that easily, you derilict rube.

You’re blatantly uninformed on socialism if you don’t understand that EVERYONE makes the same in this society - otherwise it isn’t socialism.

Except the Ruling Class.

I always loved this hearing this argument. They said it for years about Cuba too. “they only suck because The US won’t trade them.” What’s that tell ya?

In your own words, please give me the reason/s for your opposition to the gold standard(not that it’s being discussed, but you brought it up).

That they suck on their own, which prevents them from being valuable enough to prevent U.S. sanctions.

If the gibberish now prevalent in this thread was in the Biden thread, it would be absolutely apt.

Just sayin’.

Why do you think almost all countries have abandoned it? The parameters of the gold standard are always used to deny public spending. But when is it used to deny or curb military spending, wars, tax breaks for successful corporations or subsidies? With the gold standard your fiscal space is very limited. Without it the fiscal horizon is much broader. The principles of MMT are used to help the ruling class but the gold standard is used to keep the lower classes down. We haven’t been on the gold standard since Nixon took us off in August 1971. So why is it still being used as an excuse to throttle down the lower classes?
