The Deficit Myth: The Biggest Lie in Politics

Such as?

Provoked by NATO. And no I didn’t make money off the Ruble OR the Yuan.

Jump in, waters warm.

Not other civilized countries. Most have just as good and some even have much better social safety nets than the U/.S.

Because I made it that way. I no longer depend on a business or a boss. I have much more freedom and make more money. Of course it wasn’t always like that.
Yes, I was more fortunate to be born in this country, especially the countries we’ve had a part in a coup d’etat and colonizing.

Kinda like the ultra wealthy/corporations.

YOU actually used the word jobs in your post.

And yet I have far more freedom and money than ever before

This is far more true of capitalist/right-wing publications.

Yeah, after 6 years and 12 seasons they just figured it out.

Or we can just keep the socialism for the ultra wealthy/corporations we have today because it has worked out so well. To not acknowledge that we can learn from what has worked and what hasn’t is the domain of the indoctrinated.

How do other less rich countries make it work, jerkoff? Did you ever think of that? No because your too busy fondling the testicles of capitalism.

Explain to me how the truth is pathetic non-sense.

And who said that I’d be in charge?

How about enforcing the laws on oligopolies OR making new laws forbidding, that are enforced, this kind of entanglement.

Yes, please just go away. Your excuses are tired and worn out. And laughable.

So throw your hands up in the air and don’t try and make things better. Just accept it because it’s too difficult to fight.

So one needs to make money in this garbage system if one wants to live. As I’ve stated before I’ve had other jobs prior to my trading. I made the decision to learn how to trade for a living based on my past experience in the workforce. The way I was treated and the remedies that were available to me for redress were fucking trash.
Doesn’t matter to me if the system went entirely socialist I would make it under ANY system. I can do with less.

Another fantasy. Where would the homeless vet get the money for those things? The government or a defense contractor? But, who is gonna pay for it? But they can receive other things from the kindness of others. Stuff that is required to survive, Holy fuck dude!

That’s not at all what I said or implied. You inferred this as my meaning because it’s the response you want me to have.

No, one needs money in any place that a has modern conveniences and technology.

So by self admission you are then a leech on the system and not contributing to “maximizing production” which under your pet theory is the main control of inflation. Therefore, you are directly contributing to the problem.

Not based on your statements.

No holy fuck dude you are dense.

Again you made the argument time is as good as money when it comes to helping people. The example was hyperbolic but proves my point. Money is more effective.

Is it more realistic? That can be debated. But once again you shifted the goal post of your argument.

Under your system we could just issue more currency and pay the homeless. It clearly has minimal drawbacks to do such a thing.

And how do you figure that?

All the homelessness in America could have been ended several times over w/ the money we sent to Ukraine. Homelessness is a choice in this garbage country. Like really, “how are we gonna pay for it?” How about via the same mechanism by which we sent Ukraine billions of dollars?

To whom?

So what do you recommend to do?

Can this only be done in a capitalist system?

Is it maximizing production to have ‘right to work’ laws? You know where you can get fired from a long term job w/ no reason and not have any recourse? So the employer contributes to this. Would it be conscious of me to join this system knowing that my employer can w/o reason end my employment and lessen production?

I’m making it under this bullshit system. Most others would be a downhill slide.

No. Because Capitalism made it that way.

You depend on the structures built by capitalists.

By exploiting the labor of others.

A simple thank you to capitalism would suffice.

6 whole years, wow…

We pay for their protection via NATO and they still can’t pay their healthcare workers nor do they provide the services you think they should.

Absolute clown show.

Say the day-trader.

The truth, :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

No, fuck you.

Obviously no one would ever put you in charge of anything.

People are homeless in every single country on earth. Imagine thinking it’s just about money. How you function is truly astounding.

Agreed, we never should have sent funds over there, or any places for that matter.

First, accept human nature as generally shit. Then, help those around you (which you seem to be doing). But don’t pretend you or I can actually affect a serious change to the system amidst the corruption. Spouting off on a forum about how shitty is doesn’t change it in the slightest.

Beside the point. Ability to be fired has nothing to do with maximizing production.

Generally, if you’re not a pile of crap, it’s pretty hard to get fired from a production line…

Feudal systems or the Indian caste system beg to differ.

Translation:
“I’m making it under the easiest system ever devised to be successful. Most others would be a downhill slide.”

Downhill directly into the gulag maybe.

Jesus Christ dude, you fucking day trade and act like making it in the US is difficult. :rofl:

You’re so amazingly detached from reality it’s adorable.

Made possible buy all those evil capitalists.
I can’t imagine contributing/participating in a system I supposedly hate by doing something deeply intrinsic to that system day in/day out.

It’s Idiocracy playing out in real life.

Not only that, but the only person it helps is himself. Of all the professions and organizations he could work for he picks one that provides zero benefit to society. Hypocrisy at it’s finest.

It’s probably a kill shelter and he flips the switch.

Sure. If you’re doing it to feel better about yourself. If you’re looking for a “Thank you.” Not if you’re looking to actually help.
