Yeah, not going to explain the meaning of threat to you since you won’t understand it.
All I asked , was do you think it is a military or economic threat? Maybe a combination of the two.
Your lack of participation in the training forum calls into question your motivation for participating in this community. In the age of increasingly sophisticated A.I. bots it also calls into question your humanity, but we’re all pretty sure you’re the same human behind the Zeppelin handles from years past.
Normal, well-adjusted people choose this forum to discuss training and share that aspect of our lives in public training logs, and some of us happen to enjoy posting in PWI as well. You can poke around and see photos, videos and years of training logs for just about everyone you’re conversing with here.
Do you go on pottery forums to talk politics in the off-topic section? What about firearm forums? You’d find a lot of people to call brainwashed fools there. There’s a young mothers forum somewhere I bet, you should go make sure they know how dumb they are too.

I typically use the word ignorant. Much different.
Probably right.
With an occasional “moron”
Yes you are correct.
OKAY. Why?
Around 1990 the debt was about 3T. Now it is around 30T. People opposed to MMT never explain why everything hasn’t blown up yet. They’ve been saying it for decades and are always wrong. Still believing a currency issuing government’s budget works like a personal budget. But most posters on here still believe the mainstream economists. Why? Why would you believe a group of “professionals” who’ve been wrong for decades? Now they’ve switched their target to inflation. Where was all the inflation before the pandemic?
Why would you believe in communism/Marxism when is has been proven shit for over a century?
You ask many too questions and provide no answers or solutions. Parroting BS from people you believe are smart.
We have had nuclear weapons since 1945 - why haven’t they been used yet? The climate has been warming up for over a century - should we ignore that too? The fuse may be long but it’s lit.
So why are the vast majority of scientists ignoring this?
Why is the U.S. sanctioning countries like Cuba and Venezuela? If their economic model is such shit, then let them fail on their own.
We used 2 atomic bombs on Japan or do these not count? Why we haven’t used them again? Well we certainly don’t attack other countries who possess them. Why do you believe they haven’t been used again?
Why would you believe in capitalism when 10’s of thousands of people die every year w/o health insurance and 500k are left homeless and on and on. A failed system that concentrates money and power into the hands of a few. It rewards greed. Very wealthy people and corporations buy politicians to rig the game in their favor.
Cuba has a longer life expectancy than the U.S. and a higher literacy than we do. They send their doctors all over the world to help people, just like the capitalist U.S.
The vast majority are not and many researchers in science and engineering are actively seeking ways to combat this. Not surprised you don’t know this though.
Well, considering the next time they are used the planet will die thanks to mutually assured destruction (still a thing). I am guessing most don’t actually want to die. Point stands that the possibility is still there.
Seriously? Their economy is collapsing and people are starving to. It needs no outside influence. Certainly it should not be held up as a healthy economy.
Probably because the people there aren’t lazy pieces of shit like most Americans. Also, they probably don’t have excess food to eat leading to all the obesity and issues that come with it.
The literacy rate in Cuba is .7% greater than the US. Considering the population difference (12M versus 320 million) this doesn’t mean much.
Tens of thousands per year (maybe - your stat is questionable without proof) versus the millions killed under Stalin and Mao. Communism is still in the lead in preventable deaths.
Do you really believe this hasn’t happened in communist countries?
How dense can one person be?

Especially if the duopoly is in charge.
Due to the U.S. sanctions.
And here are some of those lazy pieces of shit. Why would they be working 2 jobs, a notion that was very foreign when I was a kid. My father was the only one who worked. We had a very middle class living. Modest house, 2 used cars in the driveway a pool and on and on. Why is this not as prevalent as it used to be? Could 1 of the answers be that pay is so shitty.
A study done by Harvard on deaths attributable to lack of health insurance in our great capitalist country.
Is this your argument for capitalism? We can do better. And MMT provides a way to improve the lives of the majority of Americans. And so do worker co-ops.
Is it excess food OR “food” made so cheaply, to bump up profits, that is causing disease etc.
I would like to see proof 10’s of thousands are dying every year without health insurance. It is illegal not to treat someone in the US for medical issues regardless if they can pay or not. Also, people that can’t pay - don’t and hospitals write it off usually. That argument is bullshit. I have worked with large hospital chains in the past.
How many homeless are homeless due to mental illness / drug abuse that refuse help? The majority from what I have seen. You don’t have to be homeless in the US if you don’t want to be. There are NUMEROUS programs out there to help you.
Not exactly a place I would be championing over the US.
If you have to ask this, you are clueless. Why can’t they survive on their own with sanctions? Their model is so superior it should be able to survive some pesky sanctions from a shitty capitalist country.

One does not have to eat cheaply made food. Eating healthy is not hard and can be quite cheap.

I have shown you a study. What have you shown to the contrary?
And what of these people?

Just a life expectancy and a literacy higher than the U.S. Not to mention they, like the capitalist U.S., send their doctors to other countries to provide help.
No. It is you who are clueless. Buying the indoctrination all the time. Why can’t the U.S. end homelessness in their country? Mississippi, the poorest state in America has done it, Why can’t the rest of the U.S.? Who has the boot on the neck of the U.S.? Who is sanctioning us or embargoing the U.S,?
With the wages of modern capitalism it fits so well.
I bet Cuba’s immigration department is stretched to the gills.

MS has ended homelessness? Since when? You do realize my main house is in MS right? Lol.
I am clueless? Again, you can’t even seem to figure out the basics of life, but you have these huge, contested issues figured out? Okayyyyyy.
You realize why they are not sanctioning or embargoing the US right? Because we have money due to capitalism. Sanctioning the US would hurt them. It is called having something that people want and being worth something. I know you would not understand that concept, since every job you have ever had a monkey could do better than you it seems.
Well the article says 25% of homeless are employed. So, what is 25% of 500K? Last I checked 25% is not a majority in any sense of the word.
You can eat healthy food cheaper than you can bad / unhealthy food. It just takes more work and effort, which most of the population sorely lacks.
Laws and knowledge of how the medical system works on a legal and financial level. Things you don’t seem to comprehend, ever.
