CLINTON and the DNC paid for the fake Russia Dossier and probably broke the law. They also approved a deal to give US uranium to RUSSIA. Special Prosecutor will be appointed to investigate this corruption.

The Lion King is a statement about socialism
My gripe with the Lion King is that Scar is the hero. He overthrows a fucked up bourgoise and saves thousands of Hyenas living in poverty. After Simba flees Scar is totally written as converting the kingdom into a starving military dictatorship. This is absolutely a false representation of the amazing Utopia he envisioned. He said be prepared. I was ready. Why didnt his socialist revolution succeed?

Catalonia Referendum
Catalonia intended to hold a referendum on independence from Spain. The Spanish high court ruled it would be illegal. Catalonia decided to hold it anyway, and police are attacking people intending to cast votes.

Thoughts?

Your country would collapse from debt. Free health care? Nothing is free, someone pays for it. End all mind control programs? Start with the mind control of public education and liberal academia that teaches all the BS you listed above.

Wouldn't a guaranteed income of $40k just cause massive inflation and not actually help anything?
JamesYanik (548 D)
26 Oct 17 UTC
@abgemacht

well, the current inflationary environment is weirdly low, but i'm sure a policy like that would be an effective "reverse" Volcker and get that inflation rolling! although, the prices of goods might adjust faster than wages leaving people WORSE off
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
26 Oct 17 UTC
But won't prices of goods and wages of high-skilled jobs just increase? That $40k won't be able to buy any more than the $18k or w/e did before.
JamesYanik (548 D)
26 Oct 17 UTC
@abge

more or less yes, though right now we're in a weird low inflation environment, some think it's transitory, some blame demographics... so all I'm going to say with confidence is more or less yes. also I'm tired and it's nearly midnight and sleep
brainbomb (290 D)

This is why you also enact laws forcing businesses to not be allowed to adjust to new incomes. That would just be extortion. Naw what you have to do is force businesses to do what we want. Through humiliation, mockery, and clandestine drone strikes if need be.
brainbomb (290 D)
26 Oct 17 UTC
The drones would of course be non lethal. What they would do is blast high pitched sounds at people who fail to comply. Basically planned harrassment to punish rich failures who do not conform to our better America.

We can get universal healthcare easily. If every single American ripped up their insurance and went to the ER tonight the system would crash and America would be forced to accept a single payer system. Its just we have to force our government to have no choice but to capitulate

We have the power of the worker as our tool. If the worker prioritized renegotiation of the system as opposed to blindly being part of it, the bourgoise would collapse after a week with no value to their so called money.

Yeah so we had a guy who thought he could just pass a law forcing prices to freeze and prevent inflation. Needless to say it didn't work, and he got replaced in 1984 (ironic right) with the most neoliberal government ever.

Rabbits was cursed ever since they was stolen from the Native Americans. All the 'white' and 'brown' and 'black' and 'asian' rabbits (and any other non-native folks) should pack up and leave the pet cemetary to join Colonel von Brad in a potato peeling adventure. Who wants to be the rear admiral?
