I'm NOT going To Make Light Of The Fact That you Live In A Home That You Share..Because You Do Not Have A REAL JOB Or Business. You Are Going To Wear Those "SHIT-LOCS" Til..MMMMmmmm You Are About 41 Years Old And Then It Will Come to You, That In-Lieu Of Making Non-Sensical Videos you Should Have Been PRODUCING SOMETHING Other Then ORPHANS...Another Words...GET A LIFE & LEAVE THIS EVIL LAND!
Write to You Tube...and demand that they get these lousy commercials off YouTube!...These are mostly corporate entities....corpratocracy!! America is for the people...fight to keep your liberties...or we are lost...
I just love how you are one of the few people on Y/T that can actually articulate a real thought and some gumba is distracted by the kitchen lighting.. that says it all.
Americans are slaved by ufanism, which they call patriotism. There is no patriotism in joyning the army. Corporations manipulate politicians, who manipulate the people.
Byut money is an illusion, everything is an illusion, it's not there and then we're like "meh." I can live with that, but I'll still be "meh." in 50 or 60 years. I can't handle money, I have more important stuff to worry about lol.
The globalists have no loyalty, they have no national ties, they hump and dump every country they can exploit, NO country is immune from their infection.
I saw it coming in the late 60's I knew we would be where we are today and I knew there was noting I could say or do to stop it.... or get the unknowing & unsuspecting to see it too!
@crashmidget15 That's so ignorant. There's no such thing as a voice "matching" an appearance. There are big peeps with high voices and small ones with deep ones, etc. We're all individual human beings, not your stereotypes. What a tool
See now if I was to guess what you sounded like it would be a cross between a whiny little bitch and narcissistic douchebag, And I got all that from your white knight of the internet reply!
BTW your comment made me throw up in my mouth a little because of how corny it was, you should write childrens stories or something.
@crashmidget15 And yet the fact remains that a person with a deep voice doesn't look a certain way and a person with a high voice doesn't look a certain way.
@igotsissues I never said it was an impossibility, but one can take an educated guess based on the fact that if a male is larger in size it probable means he has higher levels of testosterone which also affects the deepness of the voice, so really its perfectly reasonable to assume that someone would have a deeper voice based on them being a bigger individual. I never insulted him, i didnt make fun of his voice so I dont see why you give a shit?
Sad, but true. Most of us don't give a care unless it directly affects them. I know I've been trying to open the eyes of people for YEARS and until it started to hurt them they ignored me.
No one was "exploited." They didn't CARE because it either benefitted them, DIDN'T affect them, or they were just too lazy to learn what was going on. That, my friend is the mentality of the majority of this country...
I think Ayn Rand said something like...The STATE exist for the individual, the INDIVIDUAL does not exist for the state...The state should recognize human-individual interest, and support the individual in acheiving his/her peaceful, or visionary dreams, and practical goals....In America, the individual does matter, the guidelines (in our sacred-important documents) are "LIfe, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness..."
Not everyone sat back silently and let the benefits of global capitalist exploitation just wash over us. Remember the Battle in Seattle? Some people always know the difference between right and wrong - even before they're come after themselves.
For the sake of fairness one should also say who to attribute for the "First they came for the communists ..." quote. Sounds just as if MellowChaos said this, no offense. It was the German pastor Niemöller, see Wikipedia and "dubdubdub history dot ucsb dot edu slash faculty slash marcuse slash niem.htm".
Excellant point you hit the Nail right on the head its amazing for a negro like yourself to have so much insight most blacks or African Americans USA-Negroes i talk to you can't even hold down a decent conversation with one because they sound so fucking retarded.
Self-aggrandizement at others’ expense. You put a lock on your shed to keep thugs from exploiting you, pawning your hard-earned auto supplies and buying themselves designer clothes & the drugs that go with it--so shouldn’t your labor laws include “locks” to keep thugs from exploiting you & your family in the workplace? Oh, but see Americans were BENEFITING from slave labor. I know, I was one of its “local slaves” working in warehouses and barely paying my bills. Now, everyone gets it.
Al Gore had the California Oil Reserve privatized when he was vice president so his families oil company, Occidental Oil, could get drilling contracts.
First they came for the communists, I remained silent; I was not a communist. Then they locked up the social democrats, I remained silent; I was not a social democrat. When they came for the trade unionists, I did not speak out; I was not a trade unionist. When they came for the Jews, I remained silent; I wasn't a Jew. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out.
Ummm...no. The dollar is still THE reserve currency. The EU is too weak for the euro to be the reserve and no one trust China as they have zero transparency.
Another leftist interpretation of history, complete with lies, misrepresentations and smears.
It's not the globalists' fault that 3rd world countries were destitute, but the fault of the governments of those countries, which coerced the people, or didn't have a proper legal or police system.
The countries that liberalized their markets have become more prosperous. The growth of the technology industry in India being an example.
It's a fallacy to say that one man's profit is another's loss.
You have made testable claims. Will you examine them? If you find "the globalists" working with coercive governments, will you assign guilt with equal measure to both complicit parties? If you find "the globalists" forcing their decisions onto other countries' legal systems via closed-door pressures, will you blame them? If you find countries without liberalized markets outstripping the ones with, will you question your claim?
@beriukay In cases where corporations have been *forced* to deal with government, due to the government controlling the nation's economy, it is the government that is 100% to blame, not the corporation. However, in cases where a corporation has actively pursued government action in their favor, they certainly deserve condemnation. However, both of the above situations are *ultimately* due to the government having the power to initiate force in the first place.
@jonathanaconway Have you heard of private mercenaries? Power and force aren't solely in the domain of governments, especially smaller ones. I'm sorry if I come off as blunt, but it is wrong to assign 100% of all guilt goes to one entity when multiple parties are engaged in unethical behavior. Even if there is the threat of doom, one can still do the right thing, and I doubt international corporations are ever on the receiving end of doom threats. The world is big. They can just walk away.
@beriukay As to controlled economies outstripping free ones, I know of no historical examples, and I'd ask you to question your claim if you can't provide any. It certainly is possible that controlled economies might outstrip other controlled economies. Then it would depend on the nature and extent of the controls. One of the worst effects of government intervention is how difficult it becomes to separate private action from government action, or free trade from government coercion.
@jonathanaconway It seems like a difficult idea to test either way. Is China outstripping Australia? Can you even name a free economy, or is it an idealized fiction? I am in no ways an expert in economics, but I was wondering if you were willing to question what I perceived as a naive Adam Smith-ian belief that the Invisible Hand makes all things maximally fair, just, wealthy, good, whatever. So, hypothetically, if Cuba was better per capita than Texas, would you change your mind?
this is only somewhat true. I don't think they benefited to the point of agreeing with exploitation, but more, they just thought in terms of they had to get it now and many were caught up in keeping up with the joneses. Also, what can one really do besides live their own life to the fullest the best they can. If some guy buys a trailer instead of a big house, what's the difference? Do he get a pass on "exploiting the third world?" Or is that just anyone who lives in the USA just guilty?
Speak for yourself. I've been railing against the corruption and injustice since I was 15 or 16 years old. I just know much more about how it works now. If I had had influence on things we would have been an "isolationist" country all along. Obviously, my methods have not been incredibly effective. LOL!!
@1776Matthew My son-in-law explained the Isolationist concept to me and it is a nice theory. I like it except if you say like a turtle pull into your shell and ignore everybody else, they don't stop trying to annihilate you any way they can. I like the idea, I just can't wrap my head,.it really sounds great...let the rest of the world deal with their crap and we will bring all our labor and manufacturing and whatever home and shut the borders to every one else Wish that was possible even :)
This world is an illusion... Everything that was built will be destroyed. This is never the way we were suppose to live. Life is deeper than what they taught us in school... What did the Ancient Egyptians, Myans, Aztecs, Incas, and Asians know that we don't. Where did they go?... If anything they had knowledge and science down to the "T". Why did the white man destroy their way of life? Why did he istitute his way of life and make us believe that his life was the best way? Which is clearly not.
Both the US and Canada are based on exploitation, slavery, thievery and dirty back stabbing. Like every empire that has every existed, the US will die if it does not cut military spending. The thing is can it make those cuts without losing so much money that the government collapses. The US does not have all of these military bases in other countries because they are "allies".
Pity that most cannot grasp the natural (and subjective) aspect of mutual exchange, although I find myself forgiving them because they are clouded by the currently enforced legal tender laws, taxation and regulation.
Lets face it, most people are too busy working in order to keep up with this FIAT ponzi scheme, they don't have the energy or time to think too deeply about it.
@swiftysmithuk No the bad thing is people DO indeed think deeply about these things, but more often then not people are working with shitty logic from psuedo intellectuals like glenn beck. Then they get suckered into thinking that the liberal nazi commie socialist are trying to kill your babies and grandma with high taxes and gun bans. You can't have any real discussion when you are trying to prove that your not trying to destroy the country by regulating interstate cabbage sales.
First off, I'm not from the US and my cable supplier doesn’t carry Fox, I belong to neither side of the Republi-crat team paradigm that you appear to be trying to pigeon-hole me into.
As for gaining my opinions from Glen Beck on “liberal nazi commie socialists” - “trying to destroy the country by regulating interstate cabbage sales”, Hmm!
If I want to know the ideas of the “liberal commie socialists” I simply listen to them:
Meet Frances Fox Piven (co-author of the Cloward Piven Strategy)

To find the true nature and somewhat Machiavellian strategies adopted by the subversive Marxist “intellectuals”, then you should Google things like “Cultural Marxism”, “The Frankfurt School”, “Critical Theory” or “Scientific Socialism”.
@swiftysmithuk Listen tinfoil hat man, if you aren't smart enough to talk for yourself then you don't need to talk at all. How about you google some ideas of your own. Why should I give a fuck about your conspiracy theories? Enjoy your AIDS
After considering your wise insight and well thought out statement, I feel I must reflect, your mature intellect backed by such a strong and compelling argument is overwhelming.
How on earth do you cram so much enlightenment into such a compact, yet effective bundle of knowledge…?
Well said. There are in fact people that have been screaming this for years, I included. But of course the campain come's out to 'hate hippies' or 'tin foil haters' or any moniority that actually watch world news or even know there is a world part their own shoreline.
You see it too. Reaping and sowing. Exploiting and being exploited. And no one asks about humans 1000, 10,000 or 100,000 years from now. I think we're at the fork in the road. Growth or stasis. If growth is the plan, then the plan MUST include settling the planets and stars. And we have some pretty big technical and social hurdles to overcome on that. Otherwise people will have to control themselves and maintain a self sustaining world.
Exactly, well put. Check out Technocracy technate design. It is contained in the last two chapters of the Technocracy Study Course. It is a very interesting movement.
Forrest Gump " Ma Mama always yous to say `stupid is as stupid does` and that`s all I gotta say on that su`ject" Due dilligence is always in pay good times or not.......if it sounds too good to be true ....it is!
I want to be clear that all throughout history. All civilizations have been Price Systems. This includes a gold standard, commodity valuation or whatever debt tokens are adopted.
The boom and bust cycle is a part of the Price System method. And the reason for the manipulation is so we don't have another Great Depression. I'm not defending the price system. I'm just pointing the reasons why we changed to a fiat system. Let me put it this way, without the fiat system in place, we'd live in a completely different world, most likely resembling serfdom. People would still argue we are still living in one with wage slavery(like protean does). I agree
@Fetchdafish. which is exactly what uncontrolled free-market brings. fascism is unbridled corporatism, and without regulation, that's what the free market is. corporatist oligopolies, and plutocracy.
@thejamesinator17. anyway, this has nothing to do with some video. i just stated some relevant facts that seem to have been overlooked by fish, that's all.
seems many americans overlook it. but i havent found a single non-american to overlook it. america is just completely and utterly uneducated.
You can't conflate peaceful, voluntary trade with fascism, or much of anything that goes on today. To say that forcing a man to work is the same as offering to pay him to work, or that forcing a man to consume your product and to pay for it is the same as offering to sell it to him, then you are demonstrating a basic but fundamental misunderstanding about what constitutes violent and peaceful behavior.
@Fetchdafish. and how will you ensure that your ultra-free-market model will stay "peaceful, voluntary trade". who benifits from it being peaceful and voluntary? the common man does. but if you give all power to the corporations, they have no incentive to keep it peaceful and voluntary. they've already demonstrated to turn to oligopolies, manipulation (going so far as hiring psychologists to know how to manipulate better) and sweatshops whenever they can.
Abolish the state (which is to say, monopoly government). Abolish the most powerful tool in the wealthy man's arsenal. The corporation as we know it could not even exist without the state, and I call that a plus. The biggest positive however is that without the state they cannot outsource their expenses and failures to us, nor can they use violent force to cartelize the market. But mostly what I'm saying is you don't need to give "all power to corporations" to have a free market.
@Fetchdafish. if you want it to stay peaceful and voluntary; to the good of the common man, then you need at least a fitting degree of economic democracy. hence: socialism. 'cause that's what socialism is.
of course, in the american dictionary, as well as the russian, it has been confused with totalitarian statism. that's sad.
Democracy is absolutely a form of socialism. It assumes that all property is held in common, and thus we can all vote about what we should do with it. But whether this leads to a peaceful, prosperous society, I think that's been pretty soundly disproved. I mean it's certainly more peaceful and more prosperous than a typical dictatorship or monarchy, but I'd much prefer to take next logical step and privatize the government completely; break up its monopoly; let agencies compete.
@Fetchdafish. heh. its brilliant how you just defeated yourself. you make no argument in favor of your desire, and have actually made the case against your own point of view.
there is a very direct corrolation between how democratic a country is, and how peaceful it is. prosperity too yes. and you want to get back...
also you just equated democracy with monopoly, which is a paradox. if you privatise every part of governance, nothing will prevent a junta or so from taking absolute power.
Pardon if I can't make a detailed case in the limited space of a youtube comment. But democracy is a monopoly because democracy requires a state, which is a monopoly government. It cannot be challenged, it cannot be competed with, you can't opt out of funding it. It is the worst form of monopoly possible. You worry about a junta? We already have one, and your alternative is mob rule. My alternative is private agencies competing to please us, so that we will pay them voluntarily.
Democracy has never minimized the state, ever. Democratic revolutions and transitions have typically arrived with huge reductions in state power, but thereafter the state has always grown, assuming more and more control over the economy and individual's private choices. Democratic states actually seem to be wearing themselves out faster than many despotic states, they govern so inefficiently. That doesn't make despotism better, but it highlights democratic recklessness.
@Fetchdafish. i'm sorry, do you live on earth? what you said has no basis in reality. dictatorships usually disappear, but as you can see, democratic societies tend to have a lot of staying power.
and it is democracy that has made people able to make choices for themselves. it is dictatorships that mostly ban personal choice. they put you in prison for even having a different opinion.
im sorry, but you are totally making up shit, i can't argue with you.
If you're expecting a detailed argument over youtube comments you're an idiot. But since you're already an illiterate/asshole for not reading my posts and actually responding to the things I've said, your idiocy comes as no surprise.
i know youtube is not the place for detailed arguments, but that doesn't mean you should just state complete non-facts. but at any rate, you've turned to petty insults now and i don't feel like a shouting constest, so i'm just gonna leave you to your sad delusions.
... but it's so fucking sad. you make the world a worse place... *hangs head*
but that is exactly why you need to get yourself a working democracy. which is NOT what you have by the way, that's the whole problem. get a parliamentary coalition government, you'll love it.
my alternative is not mob rule. democratically construed constitution and legal system prevents mob rule. and your alternative requires a state just as much to keep those pivate agencies from poisoning everyone with addictives. how do you enforce anti-trust laws? how do you enforce quality controls?
The free market has demonstrated time and again it's ability to self-regulate through private quality-control agencies and private arbitration. Not only are you operating in ignorance, you're operating on the fallacious assumption the state actually does all these good things in real life, which I doubt you can prove. You think the guy who wants to sell you something is evil, but the people who actually take your money to pay for things whether you like it or not, are the good guys.
No average citizen is responsible for the actions of the US Government or of any western democracy, even if they were franchised at the time.
They are only guilty if and only if they believed that they did, and that the actions of the US Government or of any western democracy were the manifestation of some collective will, which reason suggests is is not the case.
So it is the fault of the corporations? That is your deduction? And so what is your answer? Is this a sales pitch for some kind of world communism? Wow, Jews would love that. And not only that, it would put us back where it all started with these bastards
Those countries you mentioned you got into trouble the same way USA did, by borrowing Jewish money. Get rid of Federal Reserve, IMF, etc but leave nations and capitalism alone, unless you want progress ground to a halt
@oakwoodx88 This is the main ignorance shown by many people. They don't see the problem as the system but put a face on it...such as the IMF, Federal Reserve, etc.
You really don't know economics if you think those corporations and groups are the cause of economic and social instability. Capitalism, socialism, and even communism all operate as a price system. They use the labor theory of value as a means to distribute resources. Technology is destroying this...how many jobs have we lost?
@newb2yutube Actually, I understand economics better than you think. "Technology is costing us jobs" Oh, I wish that were true. It was supposed to be. Would you rather work in a potato patch or have machines do the work? Why do we need so many jobs? And why have meaningless jobs like people working at Taco Bell because people are too tired to cook because they are working at Burger King? All this technology, but now both husband and wife work? It's just to pay off our national debt, like I said
Way to display more of your ignorance. The national debt can never be paid back because is it a debt claim to society. It is the process in which money is created. Using other things such as gold or other commodity evaluation is even more retarded because it can't be expanded or contracted when needed to keep economic cycle going and limit the damage of the bust cycle. You don't know what you are talking about.
@newb2yutube You said the same thing I said, essentially. "Debt is the process in which money is created" Yes, that is how we have operated this country. It's the problem, yes? So why continue doing it? You have the pieces, but have not looked at the entire picture. All these phony jobs, etc are only to keep paying interest to the FED. So why do we need the FED? This dude complains about privitizing water, etc but why not privatize printing of our own money for Christ's sake? I mean, for real
Even if you did end the FED, you wouldn't be changing anything for the better. In fact, you'd be making it worse. It would still operate as it does today. The economic cycle isn't one hundred percent efficient. Meaning money can be saved, gambled, lost or stolen. Because of this, we need growth of money(debt), and energy conversion(products and services) to create more wealth(debt). Otherwise, wealth is transfered to a few hands, which is still done today.
@newb2yutube Why do you associate growth of money with debt? Is it because in the current system, we must "rent" money from the FED? Or is it because our money is supposedly backed by finite material, gold, and such? Which means more money + same amount of gold = more debt.
Think outside the box. Why must we have the FED? Why must money be attached to gold? You can't eat it. Do you mean to say no matter how productive we are, because there's only so much gold we must stay in debt anyway? Huh?
No, I think you need to educate yourself and think outside the box. You also need to reread my comments. I said I'm not defending the processes of the price system. We don't need the FED, it is possible to have Congress do it. But as I said the entire system, the price system, is broken and won't work anymore. We need an intellectual honest conversation about our social system and possible alternatives for it.
@newb2yutube I'm not gathering your meaning about broken price system. It works fine in open market. Stuff costs what folks are willing to pay. What, you want to regulate that? Price system works fine. Checked real estate prices lately? I don't know what you refer too, but fear it could be a pitch for more control of markets when in fact, that is what the problem is now, right? Elite bankers looting the system when it should be more free and open market
......But the difference is the middle and lower classes are "asleep" because they are still able to live comfortably due to energy and products created by technology. They are encouraged to consume, because it encourage and develops growth. Which is the most important part of the price system to function.
Back in 1971 an ounce of my personal gold reserve could buy $35.00, today I could buy $1,338.00.
This is because the quantity of Dollars has been rapidly expanded, but I would like to point out that I can still purchase the same amount of goods or services with one ounce of gold as I could with $1,338.00 Dollars.
I still have the same one ounce of gold, but although the quantity is the same it's value (in Dollars) has increased (expanded)!
When governments or central banks increase the quantity of Dollars, those who receive the Dollars first can spend them into the economy at the current price, but as they add to the supply of Dollars, they slowly dilute the value of the overall supply, this is because we now have more Dollars competing for the same amount of goods and services.
Gradually the new money ripples through the economy, raising demand and prices as it goes. Income and wealth are thereby redistributed to those who receive the new money early in the process, at the expense of those who receive the new money later, or those who live on fixed incomes and receive none of the new money.
The politically connected get richer and the poor get poorer.
Think pyramid scheme, then wonder why they put a pyramid symbol on the FIAT Dollar!
Listen, I'll only say this one more time. I'm not denying the effects of fiat money, and how it destroys itself. I'm not defending it. The gold standard is no different. It will destroy itself too, but in different ways. My contention is the price system itself. So me arguing with you about the differences within the price system is pointless. The Keynesians and the Austrians are both correct in their analysis of each other. Many facts prove the price system is doomed.
@newb2yutube, if a job can be done by a machine, then it should be. This will affect our current economic system temporarily (growing pains). In the long term, however, automation will allow us to accomplish more important things by reallocating vital - formerly squandered - human potential.
@churchofstfu, you're assuming that the jobs of today will be the same as the jobs of tomorrow. We will need more engineers and programmers. And won't need as many menial laborers. You fear change, which is understandable. We went through this with the industrial revolution.
@DarkMatter2525 Yet we still have the same educational system that was devised to benefit the Industrial Revolution. We need to change the thinking of those who will be working in the future by doing away with a system that revolves around punctuality and conformity. Let's move to core hours and creativity instead. Future generations will then have less fear.
A country can recover from an economic disaster in 50 years, [Case examples Germany, Japan, to a lesser extent england and france]
Someone might get fat because a leg injury prevents them from getting good excersize, but if they remain inert long after the leg has healed the excuse is gone. [not to say the north koreans are lazy]
The embargo might explain why they WERE in a poor state but it fails to explain why present conditions are as such.
We are the bankers, corporations, globalist.... Many of us work inside these enterprises. One way to transform this situation is to stop pretending that we are powerless victims who are unable to use our power for change.
@chop98 I think he owns and rents out an apartment complex....so, yes he has.
This is exactly how the 'bankers' and 'globalist' do what they do. It is a way to survive and unfortunately it doesn't seem right. This is how our social system is structured, why is that? Why do we use money as a means to distribute resources? and rely on the concept of "jobs" as a way to gain money(and therefore resources to survive) when technology is destroying that very thing.
@newb2yutube All part of the big plan, man. Bring about this sweeping change and right into one world government. Look at what is going on. First the money and economy. Then the riots. Next is war? Nobody wants that. It is where these elitists are taking us and people are playing right into their hands. I can't agree with a socialist society either. The settlers tried that in the 1600's and almost starved to death. I think you should be able to keep what you make. Not the extent of the bankers.
I don't agree with a socialist society either...they want to use the labor theory of value, just as all other price systems.
Keep what you make? I agree with that, however, we live in a world of Technology. We don't live in the 1800's anymore. So what if we I could create a car with a machine, without any other "work" except for monitoring it? Does that still count?
@newb2yutube It sure does count. The people have to run the computers to run the bots. Technology is a super good thing. However, it has outpaced mankind. One of two things must happen. Either we get rid of money and have technology handle it or we get rid of technology in the work place. Neither is going to happen because the elite will have people with money in their pocket which equals freedom to some. We're headed into a bad place in the time of this world. I don't think it will end well.
When the price system collapses, as it must because the limits of growth have been reached, then there won't be any more "elite". Only people who have access to the best weapons and resources.
John Dewey: "Politics is the shadow cast on society by big business" ..."talk of democracy has little content when big business rules the life of the country through its control of the means of production, exchange, the press and other means of publicity, propaganda and communication."
Also, growth is always demanded. Otherwise we'd be going back to serfdom. There is somewhat of a conspiracy in the Globalist and Banks do have major say. however, this is the only thing they know in terms of economics. As I said, growth is demanded because it functions as a pyramid scheme, so in order to keep the ignorant middle and lower classes satisfied, they are encouraged to consume more and gain more debt. This is how our economic paradigm is designed. It's either growth, or serfdom.
There's so much going on the world it's ridiculous. Like the adult form of 'teenage drama'. It is not government, or military that is causing all of this trouble, but the nature of humanity itself. I don't believe an explosion OR a deity would create such a barbaric species.
@MazorKuziaki It is not human nature. That is ignoring major facts and reasoning saying otherwise. The problem is how our social system is structure and operated. This is called the Price System. We distribute resources with this model, and with Technology, is destroying itself with debt, resource destruction, and creating a class system. The problem isn't humanity but the system we use to operate it our social system.
@MazorKuziaki When you watch the news, they make it seem like everything's breaking down, morality is being lost, and everything might as well die because we're fucked up....While humanity indeed has it's ugly side, if more and more individuals decide to take a stance and nurture compassion, good will, a quest for knowledge, and many other notable good and right traits, we will begin to see a different system emerge. We cannot rely on our so called leaders for this. Just my two cents :) takecare
The BIGGEST point you neglect to address or consider is that this is the natural process of the Price System. To it's core, it is special interest controlled. Meaning people and groups all have to fight within the system to profit from it(this can be by a cause such as the environment, or just a way to make money)
Usually this benefits people with large access to money(corporations, individuals, groups, etc) It's just a natural progression. Things never change unless they are forced to.

@igotsissues I never said it was an impossibility, but one can take an educated guess based on the fact that if a male is larger in size it probable means he has higher levels of testosterone which also affects the deepness of the voice, so really its perfectly reasonable to assume that someone would have a deeper voice based on them being a bigger individual. I never insulted him, i didnt make fun of his voice so I dont see why you give a shit?

Another leftist interpretation of history, complete with lies, misrepresentations and smears.
It's not the globalists' fault that 3rd world countries were destitute, but the fault of the governments of those countries, which coerced the people, or didn't have a proper legal or police system.
The countries that liberalized their markets have become more prosperous. The growth of the technology industry in India being an example.
It's a fallacy to say that one man's profit is another's loss.

beriukay 1 year ago
@beriukay In cases where corporations have been *forced* to deal with government, due to the government controlling the nation's economy, it is the government that is 100% to blame, not the corporation. However, in cases where a corporation has actively pursued government action in their favor, they certainly deserve condemnation. However, both of the above situations are *ultimately* due to the government having the power to initiate force in the first place.
jonathanaconway 1 year ago
@jonathanaconway Have you heard of private mercenaries? Power and force aren't solely in the domain of governments, especially smaller ones. I'm sorry if I come off as blunt, but it is wrong to assign 100% of all guilt goes to one entity when multiple parties are engaged in unethical behavior. Even if there is the threat of doom, one can still do the right thing, and I doubt international corporations are ever on the receiving end of doom threats. The world is big. They can just walk away.
beriukay 1 year ago
@beriukay As to controlled economies outstripping free ones, I know of no historical examples, and I'd ask you to question your claim if you can't provide any. It certainly is possible that controlled economies might outstrip other controlled economies. Then it would depend on the nature and extent of the controls. One of the worst effects of government intervention is how difficult it becomes to separate private action from government action, or free trade from government coercion.
jonathanaconway 1 year ago
@jonathanaconway It seems like a difficult idea to test either way. Is China outstripping Australia? Can you even name a free economy, or is it an idealized fiction? I am in no ways an expert in economics, but I was wondering if you were willing to question what I perceived as a naive Adam Smith-ian belief that the Invisible Hand makes all things maximally fair, just, wealthy, good, whatever. So, hypothetically, if Cuba was better per capita than Texas, would you change your mind?

You can't conflate peaceful, voluntary trade with fascism, or much of anything that goes on today. To say that forcing a man to work is the same as offering to pay him to work, or that forcing a man to consume your product and to pay for it is the same as offering to sell it to him, then you are demonstrating a basic but fundamental misunderstanding about what constitutes violent and peaceful behavior.
Fetchdafish 1 year ago
@Fetchdafish. and how will you ensure that your ultra-free-market model will stay "peaceful, voluntary trade". who benifits from it being peaceful and voluntary? the common man does. but if you give all power to the corporations, they have no incentive to keep it peaceful and voluntary. they've already demonstrated to turn to oligopolies, manipulation (going so far as hiring psychologists to know how to manipulate better) and sweatshops whenever they can.

Abolish the state (which is to say, monopoly government). Abolish the most powerful tool in the wealthy man's arsenal. The corporation as we know it could not even exist without the state, and I call that a plus. The biggest positive however is that without the state they cannot outsource their expenses and failures to us, nor can they use violent force to cartelize the market. But mostly what I'm saying is you don't need to give "all power to corporations" to have a free market.
Fetchdafish 1 year ago
@Fetchdafish. if you want it to stay peaceful and voluntary; to the good of the common man, then you need at least a fitting degree of economic democracy. hence: socialism. 'cause that's what socialism is.

lygophile 1 year ago
@lygophile
Democracy is absolutely a form of socialism. It assumes that all property is held in common, and thus we can all vote about what we should do with it. But whether this leads to a peaceful, prosperous society, I think that's been pretty soundly disproved. I mean it's certainly more peaceful and more prosperous than a typical dictatorship or monarchy, but I'd much prefer to take next logical step and privatize the government completely; break up its monopoly; let agencies compete.
Fetchdafish 1 year ago
@Fetchdafish. heh. its brilliant how you just defeated yourself. you make no argument in favor of your desire, and have actually made the case against your own point of view.
there is a very direct corrolation between how democratic a country is, and how peaceful it is. prosperity too yes. and you want to get back...
also you just equated democracy with monopoly, which is a paradox. if you privatise every part of governance, nothing will prevent a junta or so from taking absolute power.
lygophile 1 year ago
@lygophile
Pardon if I can't make a detailed case in the limited space of a youtube comment. But democracy is a monopoly because democracy requires a state, which is a monopoly government. It cannot be challenged, it cannot be competed with, you can't opt out of funding it. It is the worst form of monopoly possible. You worry about a junta? We already have one, and your alternative is mob rule. My alternative is private agencies competing to please us, so that we will pay them voluntarily.

Democracy has never minimized the state, ever. Democratic revolutions and transitions have typically arrived with huge reductions in state power, but thereafter the state has always grown, assuming more and more control over the economy and individual's private choices. Democratic states actually seem to be wearing themselves out faster than many despotic states, they govern so inefficiently. That doesn't make despotism better, but it highlights democratic recklessness.

@Fetchdafish. i'm sorry, do you live on earth? what you said has no basis in reality. dictatorships usually disappear, but as you can see, democratic societies tend to have a lot of staying power.

@oakwoodx88
Even if you did end the FED, you wouldn't be changing anything for the better. In fact, you'd be making it worse. It would still operate as it does today. The economic cycle isn't one hundred percent efficient. Meaning money can be saved, gambled, lost or stolen. Because of this, we need growth of money(debt), and energy conversion(products and services) to create more wealth(debt). Otherwise, wealth is transfered to a few hands, which is still done today.
newb2yutube 1 year ago
@newb2yutube Why do you associate growth of money with debt? Is it because in the current system, we must "rent" money from the FED? Or is it because our money is supposedly backed by finite material, gold, and such? Which means more money + same amount of gold = more debt.
Think outside the box. Why must we have the FED? Why must money be attached to gold? You can't eat it. Do you mean to say no matter how productive we are, because there's only so much gold we must stay in debt anyway? Huh?

No, I think you need to educate yourself and think outside the box. You also need to reread my comments. I said I'm not defending the processes of the price system.

We need an intellectual honest conversation about our social system and possible alternatives for it.

@newb2yutube I'm not gathering your meaning about broken price system. It works fine in open market. Stuff costs what folks are willing to pay. What, you want to regulate that? Price system works fine. Checked real estate prices lately? I don't know what you refer too, but fear it could be a pitch for more control of markets when in fact, that is what the problem is now, right? Elite bankers looting the system when it should be more free and open market

......But the difference is the middle and lower classes are "asleep" because they are still able to live comfortably due to energy and products created by technology. They are encouraged to consume, because it encourage and develops growth. Which is the most important part of the price system to function.

Back in 1971 an ounce of my personal gold reserve could buy $35.00, today I could buy $1,338.00.
This is because the quantity of Dollars has been rapidly expanded, but I would like to point out that I can still purchase the same amount of goods or services with one ounce of gold as I could with $1,338.00 Dollars.
I still have the same one ounce of gold, but although the quantity is the same it's value (in Dollars) has increased (expanded)!

When governments or central banks increase the quantity of Dollars, those who receive the Dollars first can spend them into the economy at the current price, but as they add to the supply of Dollars, they slowly dilute the value of the overall supply, this is because we now have more Dollars competing for the same amount of goods and services.

Gradually the new money ripples through the economy, raising demand and prices as it goes. Income and wealth are thereby redistributed to those who receive the new money early in the process, at the expense of those who receive the new money later, or those who live on fixed incomes and receive none of the new money.
The politically connected get richer and the poor get poorer.
Think pyramid scheme, then wonder why they put a pyramid symbol on the FIAT Dollar!

Listen, I'll only say this one more time. I'm not denying the effects of fiat money, and how it destroys itself. I'm not defending it. The gold standard is no different. It will destroy itself too, but in different ways. My contention is the price system itself. So me arguing with you about the differences within the price system is pointless. The Keynesians and the Austrians are both correct in their analysis of each other. Many facts prove the price system is doomed.

@newb2yutube, if a job can be done by a machine, then it should be. This will affect our current economic system temporarily (growing pains). In the long term, however, automation will allow us to accomplish more important things by reallocating vital - formerly squandered - human potential.

@DarkMatter2525 And what happens if 99% of jobs can be done by machine, yet the system of welfare is still in the abysmal state it's in today?
What do we have to look forward to? A lifetime of begging the owners of those machines for our daily bread?
churchofstfu 1 year ago
@churchofstfu, you're assuming that the jobs of today will be the same as the jobs of tomorrow. We will need more engineers and programmers. And won't need as many menial laborers. You fear change, which is understandable. We went through this with the industrial revolution.
DarkMatter2525 1 year ago
@DarkMatter2525 Yet we still have the same educational system that was devised to benefit the Industrial Revolution. We need to change the thinking of those who will be working in the future by doing away with a system that revolves around punctuality and conformity. Let's move to core hours and creativity instead. Future generations will then have less fear.

A country can recover from an economic disaster in 50 years, [Case examples Germany, Japan, to a lesser extent england and france]
Someone might get fat because a leg injury prevents them from getting good excersize, but if they remain inert long after the leg has healed the excuse is gone. [not to say the north koreans are lazy]
The embargo might explain why they WERE in a poor state but it fails to explain why present conditions are as such.

We are the bankers, corporations, globalist.... Many of us work inside these enterprises. One way to transform this situation is to stop pretending that we are powerless victims who are unable to use our power for change.

This is exactly how the 'bankers' and 'globalist' do what they do. It is a way to survive and unfortunately it doesn't seem right. This is how our social system is structured, why is that? Why do we use money as a means to distribute resources? and rely on the concept of "jobs" as a way to gain money(and therefore resources to survive) when technology is destroying that very thing.
newb2yutube 1 year ago
@newb2yutube All part of the big plan, man. Bring about this sweeping change and right into one world government. Look at what is going on. First the money and economy. Then the riots. Next is war? Nobody wants that. It is where these elitists are taking us and people are playing right into their hands. I can't agree with a socialist society either. The settlers tried that in the 1600's and almost starved to death. I think you should be able to keep what you make. Not the extent of the bankers.

@chop98
I don't agree with a socialist society either...they want to use the labor theory of value, just as all other price systems.
Keep what you make? I agree with that, however, we live in a world of Technology. We don't live in the 1800's anymore. So what if we I could create a car with a machine, without any other "work" except for monitoring it? Does that still count?
newb2yutube 1 year ago
@newb2yutube It sure does count. The people have to run the computers to run the bots. Technology is a super good thing. However, it has outpaced mankind. One of two things must happen. Either we get rid of money and have technology handle it or we get rid of technology in the work place. Neither is going to happen because the elite will have people with money in their pocket which equals freedom to some. We're headed into a bad place in the time of this world. I don't think it will end well.

When the price system collapses, as it must because the limits of growth have been reached, then there won't be any more "elite". Only people who have access to the best weapons and resources.

Also, growth is always demanded. Otherwise we'd be going back to serfdom. There is somewhat of a conspiracy in the Globalist and Banks do have major say. however, this is the only thing they know in terms of economics. As I said, growth is demanded because it functions as a pyramid scheme, so in order to keep the ignorant middle and lower classes satisfied, they are encouraged to consume more and gain more debt. This is how our economic paradigm is designed. It's either growth, or serfdom.

There's so much going on the world it's ridiculous. Like the adult form of 'teenage drama'. It is not government, or military that is causing all of this trouble, but the nature of humanity itself. I don't believe an explosion OR a deity would create such a barbaric species.
MazorKuziaki 1 year ago
@MazorKuziaki It is not human nature. That is ignoring major facts and reasoning saying otherwise. The problem is how our social system is structure and operated. This is called the Price System. We distribute resources with this model, and with Technology, is destroying itself with debt, resource destruction, and creating a class system. The problem isn't humanity but the system we use to operate it our social system.
newb2yutube 1 year ago
@MazorKuziaki When you watch the news, they make it seem like everything's breaking down, morality is being lost, and everything might as well die because we're fucked up....While humanity indeed has it's ugly side, if more and more individuals decide to take a stance and nurture compassion, good will, a quest for knowledge, and many other notable good and right traits, we will begin to see a different system emerge. We cannot rely on our so called leaders for this. Just my two cents :) takecare

The BIGGEST point you neglect to address or consider is that this is the natural process of the Price System. To it's core, it is special interest controlled. Meaning people and groups all have to fight within the system to profit from it(this can be by a cause such as the environment, or just a way to make money)
Usually this benefits people with large access to money(corporations, individuals, groups, etc) It's just a natural progression. Things never change unless they are forced to.
