We're all worried about the government and the rich but why? We're all going to die. It's like one big video game and in the end we're all fucked lol.




It's all about surviving comfortably and enjoying life while we live, the government and rich people are preventing this especially for poverty-stricken human beings.

Worry can change things alas I don't think we will change the governance structure and wealth inequality in my lifetime but we can pave way for future generations. It's a long shot but it's likely worth it. :cool:

It absolutely makes no sense :lol:!! I swear people are insane!


You folks fail to realize who makes the money. Who prints the money. Who protects the money. It is the collective society.

When billion dollar fortunes are amassed, it is done so only because we live in a society that functions in such as way, with it's infrastructure, judicial system, executive system, education system, etc, that billion dollar fortunes can be created.

Those who receive the most benefit from a system, should have to pay the most dues. This is simple. Do you know how much the government subsidizes the oil that you put in your gas tank? Do you know how much the government subsidizes Amazon?

The problem that you're having, is that you're still under the illusion that fortunes can be made created by a man.





11 million dollars isn't a fortune though. There's a big difference between a guy that has 11 million and the guy running Amazon. The amazon guy has over 100 billion! It's not the same thing because the Amazon guy avoids paying taxes from the very beginning.

I think the government needs to stay the fuck out of are lives. For a example I think is wrong if a female gets 50% of everything during a divorce. My friends wife cheated on him and divorced him and got rewarded half of everything! She even took half of his retirement! She never worked a day in her life. It's all because the government wanted their peace of the pie. Your savings should belong to you alone.


11 million dollars is a fortune. That's more money than 99.99999% of the world has.

I'm probably not going to send Bernie a third check for $27.
Everybody's 401K will be higher with Trump or Biden than with Bernie, at least for a while.
We'll get to hear Biden call Trump a dog faced pony soldier at the debate, and the debate will be highly amusing in general despite being pathetic.

So Kasparov, who hates Trump, has now written this:

https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/05/opinions/danger-of-nominating-sanders-kasparov/index.html

To make a distinction often lost on Americans with their two-party system, Social Democrats want to use policy to soften the edges of the free market. Democratic Socialists -- which is what Sanders calls himself -- want to reshape society to eliminate the evils of capitalism. He and his followers may like to tout Demark and Finland, but his own words also highlight the socialist dictatorships of Nicaragua, Cuba, and the Soviet Union. These latter endorsements refute those who say that "socialism" is just another word for higher taxes and a better social safety net. It would be easy to advocate for those things without defending aspects of police states, but Sanders chooses otherwise.

All you need for this perspective to develop is to have grown up under socialism. Wherein lies the difference between those who have had this experience and those who have not.

Something else I am keen to share. After the discussions on this formum about Trump's mental condition I got high on weed and listened to his recent media briefing - the one in front of the helicopter. I normally cannot stand his retard talk and also this was the first time I listened to him while high. What I saw with absolute clarity was his deployment of the tools of persuasion - in this case verbal diversions, repetitions and his famous "many people" trick (does he never speak to or listen to one person?). So I saw a man who just clicks into the media mode of delivering his persuasion babble easily and effortlessly. The people who think he is losing it cannot penetrate past this layer of PR fluff and I admit it is not easy because of how good his Mr Hyde impersonation is. It was a very interesting experience.

Kasparov is one of the greatest political idiots I've ever heard.  He needs to stick to chess.

He's just pissed because the Soviet Union didn't let him keep all his prize money from winning chess tournaments:

Los Angeles Times
Quote:
At the 1987 world chess championship in Seville, Spain, where Kasparov was supposed to receive half of a $1.85 million purse, he said he received only $100,000.


But as you keep failing to understand over and over and over again, Bernie's NOT a communist.

Hey Ape Head.  If you studiyng ERicskson Milton Hypnotherapy.  Also, like NLP from Bandler and Grinder.  Try the book Frogs into Princes.  You will see what he is doing.

Obama was also a master of NLP.  The others are trying to do what Obama did, but they do it poorly.

I don't rate him outside the chess either but this piece is interesting.

He first has a go at Trump - quite vicious stuff. But then he pivots to "whoaa - Trump is a dick but you are not seriously considering electing a socialist?".

In "Native Realm" Milosz wrote that one of the most meaningful distinctions one can make between different people are those who have experienced Soviet system and those who have not. For all his faults Kasparov is in the first category so this opinion piece is a warning.

"Native Realm" (Rodzinna Europa) is a book similar in its powerful message to Orwell's 1984 or Solzhenitzyn's writings. If anything, the latter two are even more horrifying because they describe reality and not a freaky but imaginary dystopia. I have not come across comparable works on Mao's times or the Khmer Rouge fiasco.

Maybe they'll do what they did in Iowa and claim they don't have time to count everything right.
