Wow, you are so wrong in "stimulating" the economy. Read some Mises, Rothbard or Hayek or at least read some economical history of United States and you will see. Or I didn't get what you were trying to say? Well, according to most rated comment I got it pretty much the right way I think.
I agree 100% with his point about Accountability. Such corruption it's not even funny. The people on top who fucked up our economy are suffering no consequence, in fact, they are being rewarded for all this shit....incredible.
With some of the views expressed in these videos I thought you were a Republican... This video would make me think you're a Liberal... I'm starting to think you're an American who actually uses logic to come to a conclusion rather than blindly following a leader; this is worrying.
the EU asked Britain to bail out both Ireland and Portugal's economies which i think is ridiculous. On the other hand i can see why the EU asked America for some money for the automotive industry, being most of the companies that build cars over in Europe are owned by GM (general motors) who are an american company
youre totally right: it all comes to the fact that the vast majority of people just take it without even thinking about this mess. If there is anyone guilty and anyone who can solve this shit, then its the people. And a people that expects the crisis to be solved by government or something else above deserves to (and certainly will) be taught a pretty painful lesson.
I think your right. and if you ask me i think one way to stop something like the government getting too much money is that they should only get payed sum a year and not get any raze at a point. that way we the people wont have to fork out more and more money every year to feed them when there already over fed. and then we can focus on the bigger problems we have.
You need to learn the distinction between public and private entities. There are NO private entities wholly funded with public monies (before the bailouts, anyway) and there are no public entities under complete, or even partial control of private companies. You are clearly a moron when it comes to economics. This is the last time i respond to you. all other notifications from you will be deleted.
@jteutulsr you clearly miss the point i was making, your country privatizes everything im not saying everything is private but the idea of something belonging to some and not others is the what im referring to so my case is that they privatized the fire dept by only offering free service to those in the city/group others out side of the group have to pay for the service in advance of it being preformed, even tho the its public the ideology and politics behind it is capitalism/privatization
@jteutulsr like i said before but have clearly not gone back to look im for true capitalism not corporatism pretending to be capitalism, if they want to charge a fee upon performance of a service that's one thing mandating it like insurance is another but i also have socialistic views in which i have stated but apparently you don't bother to read the whole argument just the one paragraph you get in your email.
@cloudvszell Newsflash, these posts are only one paragraph long. What i dont do is hunt all over the page for your other scattered comments, you're just not that important to me. "Corporatism pretending to be capitalism" IS a form of socialism, moron. Only in this system, the corporations and govt COLLUDE to fleece the public, instead of the govt fleecing them all alone. Its called socio-capitalism. Privatize the profit, socialize the risk. Read a book, get an education. Stop bothering me.
@EliteGhost001 no one "dragged you" into anything. Your bankers and elected leaders made the same stupid mistakes and sweetheart deals as the corrupt govt officials and bankers did here, of their own volition, with other people's money. Its funny that idiot leftists preach "more regulation" as the solution to "business malfeasance" while they sit in back rooms and make deals with those same politicians and donate millions to their campaigns. Do you really think anything is being done?
Sure our own politicians and bankers are to blaim aswell. But it all started out in the US. It was less worse in Europe. I'm not saying better, just.. not as bad.
@locatzofdeath we are already heading for communism and it si destroying us. Already our countries poverty/homeless rate has sky rocketed since the president has taken over. He is a muslim in our own government and no one is doing anything about it. You want communism, well here it is, on your doorstep killing the country.
imagine that public education didn`t exist and you didn`t get educated if you couldn`t afford private school.
imagine you lived anywhere except america and public health care existed and the poor could get it.
imagine food was also free.
and accommodation and travel, and that taxation might be at 100% but it doesn`t matter becuase everything is free to the necessary extent, instead of 1 man with a mansion and 1 homeless
That's right. And the idea is actualy not bad. Why should a doctor earn more money then a waste collector. The docter saves lives but if the waste collectors don't do their jobs we'd have a pandemic in no time with deadly diseases! On the other hand: a doctor often needs to study for years. So as a reward, he earns a lot. The idea of communism is nice, too bad for them it doesn't always work. And don't get me wrong: I'm pretty happy with democracy
@locatzofdeath thats right, because with communism the govt wouldnt have to tell you about bailouts or go through the farce of pretending to make recipients of bailout funds accountable, they'd just steal all the money they needed from you and when you protested they'd kill you. Excellent reasoning.
With communisme their would have been many bankers to make mistakes like that in the first place. I don't know if the communistic politicians would have done the same. Why excellent reasoning? On the other hand, communisme just doesn't realy work economicly. (That's why countries like China are loosening up.)
@jteutulsr the point is that the shares system may help finance and reward successful businesses and create more job opportunities but this is at the expense of economic disasters which occur because corporations need to be profitable, but with communism the corporations are government entities which don`t need to be profitable. contrary to your fat american arse communism is not where the government controls everything that is a totalitarian dictatorship communism is still free and democratic
@bobbinator37 I wont hold my breath waiting for you to come up with one single instance of a "free and democratic" communist govt. Remember, communism has killed more than all religions combined. And the reason you hate my "fat american arse" is because our economic system has bred wealth that makes us the envy of the world. No communist system has done that.
@jteutulsr your right a communist state doesnt do that because its not about profit so wealth is not the prime motivation in a true communist state you work and you get what you need your also covered and protected but in your once great country everything is about profit to the point that doctors who are sworn to help the sick and needy still check your credit score before treating you and fire departments wont put out your house for 10$ but hey at least the top1% have 35% of the money while
@cloudvszell You're sorely misinformed. Pay fire depts? Credit checking Drs? Doesnt happen. Those Russians were sure well provided for, right? Waiting hours in bread lines, months for substandard medical care, being imprisoned for speaking out against the the state. Kind of like China and North Korea. You go ahead and idealize communism, I'll stick with reality. You may continue to post if you want, but I am tired of talking to an uneducated, brainwashed rube.
@jteutulsr pay fire depts yes apparently you dont follow up on to much news a case in one of the states happened just this winter where a man living out side of town had a fire in his home called 911 and fire crews arrived on site then where told they could not put out the fire because the man had not paid the 20something $ fee even when the man said he would pay they said no stayed there till the house burnt down just to make sure it didnt spread to the neighbors lawn privatization at its best
@cloudvszell i am familiar with that story. That's ONE dept in ONE town. Other RURAL towns are considering this because there are no water utilities near these outlying properties. Remember, this was done by a GOVERNMENT, not a private company, so you might want to roll back your talking points. A govt fire dept, staffed by PUBLIC UNION firefighters.
@jteutulsr ya it was city operated but they made it private by only offering the service free for those inside the city limits those in neighboring townships where there isnt enough money to create a fire dept has to pay a fee that is privatization just its being run by the city not a company but the same thing would have happened if it was a company privatization is always the same want proof just stop paying stop paying your hydro bill see how lenient they are about late payments
@cloudvszell "Its public but when they charge a fee its private". You're truly an idiot. The water co. is a public utility regulated by state utility boards, run by individual cities and their PUBLIC UNIONS. The requirement for timely bill payments is evidence of privatization? Quite the contrary. Private companies know all they can do is send you to a collection agency, not cut off your power or lights. Public services providers are more despotic than private, they know they've got you.
@jteutulsr lol if that's how your hydro is operated then we are more capitalistic then you guys, power is no longer a govt operated system here but rather operated by a city or private companies and if a payment is missed or late they have the power as long as its not winter to shut off you power, so my point is invalid to based on location.
@jteutulsr as for quoting me next time try actually qouting me what i said was that the city has a fire dept people inside get the privilege of not having to worry about charges now those out side of the city no they have to pay that is privatization its no longer public because services inst guaranteed even with someone willing to pay the charge but are willing to come out and protect the one who already payed you want a better example then look at it like this
@cloudvszell My paraphrasing of your much more wordy statement was accurate. Its not my fault you're an economic retard. Your posts are nothing but nonsensical run-on sentences. You bore me and I tire of your retread, regurgitated arguments.
@jteutulsr we all have access to police as a public service they come fill out a report and either haul some one off or investigate now imagine if that same police officer came and you didn't pay the fee and someone robbed your house but the police only came out only to check on your neighbor who paid the fee would you consider that private of course you would its called private security. just because something is private doesnt mean it is limited to a company or person it can be a govt service
@jteutulsr you along with the other 99% of america fights over the 65 that's left and as the top 1% wealth increase poverty and unemployment will rise while you still yell America is number one mean while countries like china and Russia will pass you by until your at the bottom of the list and your country resembles that of a 3rd world country but ya damn those socialist communists liberals for wanting regulation and stability
@cloudvszell the reason that china and russia are excelling is due to the very capitalist policies that libs like you abhor. both countries have lower corporate tax rates than america and have also adopted a flat tax system. china is also incredibly nationalist, minimizing their imports. I wont deny that the recent economic policy moves made by the US have been wrong, but i wont engage in class warfare that people like you thrive on, spending your entire lives convincing people they cant succeed
@jteutulsr i dont thrive on it i point it out i believe everyone has a chance at succeeding but i also realize that the richer you are the greater the chance and the poorer you are the less the chance but like anyhting there are exceptions. now when it comes to china yes there new found capitalist look is making them money but it doesnt help that us companies keep sending them jobs because the employees there make far less and have fewer right like no pensions or holidays or max hours per day
@cloudvszell I will agree with you on your last point, but as i said, in order to bring the manufacturing base back to the US that made us strong in the past will require the type of capitalist resurgence that liberals are unwilling to accomodate. Labor unions, taxes, and environmental regulations drove manufacturers from this country because labor and the rest made the cost of doing business artificially expensive. Mitigate those factors, and you can start to rebuild the middle class.
@jteutulsr ya but a quick and easy way to make it so they come back would be to increase fees for all imports to a lvl that it is actually more expensive to build abroad and decrease exporting goods, as for unions and environment regulation driving business away i cant see this as a valid claim because in ontario canada the govt has increased min wage every year fro 7.25 to now 10.25 and has far more regulation but yet there are still jobs and we are out of the rescission or at least very close
@jteutulsr so i fail to see regulation on toxic waste and labour unions as the prime cause as here the govt is raising the min wage and has far more regulation as we signed the kioto accord so i see those as excuses
@cloudvszell The minimum wage is immaterial as most workers are paid above minimum wage. Only non skilled and young workers are paid the minimum. The effect that labor unions have in making labor, thus goods artificially expensive is too complex to be explained in 500 characters and if you dont understand the connection I question your economic astuteness and ability to effectively and factually argue this issue.
@jteutulsr the point of min wage been raised is to show that people here are making a min of 10.25 an hour no matter what the job as compared to other places where it can be as low as 6-7 and hour showing that with a higher cost of employees does not mean jobs instantly disappear as the unemployment here is lower then most states and regualtions is much stricter. so im trying to show a point that unions or increased employee wages and regulation do not = less jobs
@cloudvszell canada is also making good use of its lucrative natural resources, namely oil. Your economy is thriving in spite of your govts socialistic policies, not because of them. If exploitation of your natural resources were to be arrested, loss of manufacturing, and govt tampering with markets and business as has happened here, your economy would be very much in the same state. Canada is the exception, not the rule. See: Europe
@jteutulsr 1)you clearly dont understand canada to much our oil isnt our oil we sell it you the states then have to buy it back our gas prices are higher then your because of it and as for oil it only effect Alberta as its the only oil rich province so its the only one getting royalties i live in ontario where our natural resource is fresh water which doesn't turn up much profit so we are a province highly dependent on labor not resources
@cloudvszell As a natural resource, your federal govt reaps a benefit from taxes on the sale of said oil. As far as gas prices, that is a product of your govt's confiscatory energy taxes and environmental regulation, as well as a lack of refining capacity. The fact that you're "dependent on labor" means there is still a strong manufacturing base.
@jteutulsr ya there is still a strong manufacturing base i also said this after i mentioned twice we have far more regulations on companies and far more tax making my point that regulation alone does not drive away manufacturing and to put all the blame on unions and regulations is ludicrous
@jteutulsr 2) as for being socialist thats funny last time i checked we have a conservative govt in with a majority but if your referring to our healthcare well then your an idiot if you call us that because we regulate then your an idiot. regulation has kept us from suffering a housing crash it has kept our banks fro making high risk investments it makes it so companys cant do what ever they want and that they are accountable for there actions
@cloudvszell *you're* *companies*. As far as "conservative" goes, that's relative. They may be conservative to you but moderate or liberal to me. I'd have to examine their ideology. Calling me an idiot is hilarious when you clearly have no concept of spelling or a true capitalist economy. Our housing crisis is as much to blame on govt tampering as it is to blame on corporate malfeasance. Familiarize yourself with the glass steagall act and the graham leach bliley act that was signed by clinton.
@jteutulsr im sorry i didn't know spelling defines some one as an idiot might want to go tell all those phd and masters guys who cant spell a damn thing but can do complex math physics and chemical equations with out even thinking, i clearly called you an idiot because of scenarios where you called canada socialist and said your an idiot if its because of reason one or two so to take offense to that you must think we are socialist because of points one or two
@cloudvszell many of the policies that have brought economic ruin to this country are liberal or socialistic in nature, principally the astronomical growth of entitlement spending brought by the existence of entitlement programs in general. Before you can compare economies, you must compare policy. If canada has not implemented policies similar to the US, then you cannot crow about the few socialist policies that are "working" where a slew of others have failed.
@jteutulsr wait so your saying things like welfare or medicare are destroying the country? but the fact that your so called capitalist system is just a fake has nothing to do with it? i believe in true capitalism i also believe in some socialist aspects like universal medicare and police fire military but what i don't believe in is fake capitalism the way capitalism is supposed to work and had worked for years was one company wants your business more then the other they lower the price
@jteutulsr but that stopped as soon as companies starting getting bigger and bigger now cities have 3 walmarts 2 zehrs 20 star bucks its no longer a competive market everyone goes to chains small business gets bought out or just plowed over when the new walmart is built right next door sure there are those that succeed but not nowhere near the big box stores and even when you think your shopping somewhere else you find out one company owns 5 chains true capitalism dies along time ago
@jteutulsr i can compare thhe two be because they are similar but what has made them different is wat seperates one from working and the other from not for example both of our banks are allowed to invest because of deregulation in the us your banks are free to do what ever and in turn helped caused a global recession on the other hand Canadian banks are far more regulated and in turn did not get hit as bad when the rescission came
@jteutulsr and i agree there are socialist aspects i do not agree with but there are fundamental ideas i do agree with for example fire, police, military, health, education and infrastructure but if you asked me if i agree if everyone should be paid the same no of course not but should there be a giant a gap no i don't believe any one on the face of the earth works hard enough in one hour to make 1000 dollars or 2 million at 40 hours a week 50 weeks of the year
@jteutulsr "our economic system has bred wealth that makes us the envy of the world." are you sure, really? also i`m against religion so i don`t care about that, and if you want an example try cuba, they`ve made huge profits off your marijuana addiction, and they`ve loved it so much they`ve ELECTED the same people every time, democratically!
@bobbinator37 If you are enough of an idiot to think that either of the Castros or the sycophantic lunatics they surround themselves with were "democratically" elected, then you're a bigger moron than you appear. I forgot that Cuba was richer than America, my mistake, fool. It may sound cliche, but if Cuba is so great, you should move there. I'm sure Raul Castro would have no problem with you speaking your mind freely, he wouldnt even think to throw you in jail.
@noclassatall By all means, share with us this magical substitution for capitalism that you've got up your loopy lefty sleeves. "It had to do with the absorption of surplus value and to keep Capitalism going at a compound rate of 3%." I've heard many explanations for the recession in my finance classes but I've never heard anything remotely similar to your silly explanation. Keep capitalism going at a compound rate of 3%? I can't even begin to explain how fucking retarded that statement is.
@gvt2u Check back during the Clinton administration and the "make every American a home owner" drive. There was a lot of push by the government on banks and lenders.
@RCSlyman There was a belief that more working class Americans should become homeowners. The fee for service industry of collecting commissions for loans and servicing and damn the consequences became widespread, but all the federal government did was forbid banks from "red-lining," - they could not automatically reject loan applications from neighborhoods based on race or geographic location (indicating race). The banks could always reject loan applications based on lack of income/assets.
@IDontDoDrumCovers Noo. No unnecessary government limits. Let the business do what it wants. If the employees or consumers are dissatisfied, the business will go under, and bigger, better businesses will take its place.
government is the promblem! let the bad busness fail and good businees rise. and for the record i want my money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or maybe ill sue or should i sue on health care hmmmmmmmm tough choice
@Omnitrix12 the bailouts were passed under bush and the stimulus was proven to put 200 billion dollars into the economy and saved 1.3-3.4 million jobs. Whats the problem with that?
TARP was passed under Bush. Many bailouts were implemented under Bush and Obama (and Clinton, Bush 1, Reagan, and Satan). The question is why? Try to drop your cynical assumptions. Are there some real economics behind it? Like our dumbass in the video said in the Scientific Method video, "you can question it, in fact, you should." Absolutely! But you should engage the answers, even if they disagree with what you want. Sometimes, you learn you are wrong (like dr. dumbass in the video often is).
@treefingers1206 i was opposed to the bailouts as they were passed because there were no strings or conditions along with the money. The bailuts pay off in the sense that if the companies fail then we have to pay massive amounts of unemployment
@MrAmericanPolitics No, I totally agree with where you are coming from. I actually went to talk last night with Henry Paulson and he said, "It's not that these banks were too big to fail...it's that they were too big to liquidate quickly." That's absolutely true...whether that SHOULD be the case is a different story...but the fact remains that that IS the case.
@treefingers1206 Theres alot of blam to go around for the meltdown it was the fualt of democrats and republicans but the bailouts definitely needed strings attached to them for sure.
@MrAmericanPolitics That apparently you learned nothing from it. This guy does his homework, you know.
Besides, Mr. Political Expert, wasn't it determined that a number of those "proven" jobs created were in non-existent districts? And aren't unemployment rates at an obscene high? I could go on, but the point is that Obama is paying companies money they won't be able to pay back to make products nobody's buying. What's that called again? Waste.
@Omnitrix12 the bailouits ahve been nearly paid back to the government. Obama didnt give out the bailouts bush did. So to blame Obama for unemployment and the bailouts are stupid. Why dont you go ahead and prove that the jobs were created in non existent districts? bc thats some bullshit im not buying for one second.
@MrAmericanPolitics Actually Bush gave out the Bank Bailout, Obama gave out the Auto Bailout. The banks used theirs for bonuses and golden parachutes, the auto industires used theirs to keep jobs, pay pentions and fund research. Which one worked better?
If what's happening now isn't the biggest wake-up call, we'll never get another one. Could anyone, possibly, ever sit around when this is going on and think "Yeah, looks like the system is working fine."
You'd think people would care about what goes on with such fundamental thing as *money*... And we don't. And this is why shit like this happens.
Not government action, not greedy corporations, but our sheer ignorance of the issue. If we weren't, we'd never allow it to happen, simple as that.
I'm an economist and I strongly agree with this video with only one or two exceptions. The biggest one: Neoclassical economics does *not* call for giving bailouts to businesses; instead, it says that bailouts won't work.
Anything that calls for "stimulating the economy" by fiscal policy (spending more, or cutting taxes) is Keynesian.

Disgusting over simplifying fecalpheliac. If I ever see this putz in person, I'm going to kick him in the throat. Way to distribute misinformation you non-threatening white anti-funny cum eater.
Hey, you signed it xD better stand by it and pay my bail out over here in the UN! Your messing around gotta help us somehow!
I remember something similar happening. You know how Norway is the most richest country in the world in regards to wealth per individual. Well my country, Denmark, gave it (mostly partly?) to them through the oil in the North Sea. Heard our diplomat met up drunk and signed something bad... But hey life is good, and Norway have really spent it better than DK would anyway.
If we required every nation that trades with us to obey the same rules they impose on us, no one would trade with us! They wouldn't be able to make any money! That could be a part of why we are in trouble now.

@locatzofdeath thats right, because with communism the govt wouldnt have to tell you about bailouts or go through the farce of pretending to make recipients of bailout funds accountable, they'd just steal all the money they needed from you and when you protested they'd kill you. Excellent reasoning.

With communisme their would have been many bankers to make mistakes like that in the first place. I don't know if the communistic politicians would have done the same. Why excellent reasoning? On the other hand, communisme just doesn't realy work economicly. (That's why countries like China are loosening up.)
EliteGhost001 10 months ago
@jteutulsr the point is that the shares system may help finance and reward successful businesses and create more job opportunities but this is at the expense of economic disasters which occur because corporations need to be profitable, but with communism the corporations are government entities which don`t need to be profitable. contrary to your fat american arse communism is not where the government controls everything that is a totalitarian dictatorship communism is still free and democratic

@bobbinator37 I wont hold my breath waiting for you to come up with one single instance of a "free and democratic" communist govt. Remember, communism has killed more than all religions combined. And the reason you hate my "fat american arse" is because our economic system has bred wealth that makes us the envy of the world. No communist system has done that.

@jteutulsr your right a communist state doesnt do that because its not about profit so wealth is not the prime motivation in a true communist state you work and you get what you need your also covered and protected but in your once great country everything is about profit to the point that doctors who are sworn to help the sick and needy still check your credit score before treating you and fire departments wont put out your house for 10$ but hey at least the top1% have 35% of the money while

Waiting hours in bread lines, months for substandard medical care, being imprisoned for speaking out against the the state. Kind of like China and North Korea. You go ahead and idealize communism, I'll stick with reality. You may continue to post if you want, but I am tired of talking to an uneducated, brainwashed rube.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr pay fire depts yes apparently you dont follow up on to much news a case in one of the states happened just this winter where a man living out side of town had a fire in his home called 911 and fire crews arrived on site then where told they could not put out the fire because the man had not paid the 20something $ fee even when the man said he would pay they said no stayed there till the house burnt down just to make sure it didnt spread to the neighbors lawn privatization at its best
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell i am familiar with that story. That's ONE dept in ONE town. Other RURAL towns are considering this because there are no water utilities near these outlying properties. Remember, this was done by a GOVERNMENT, not a private company, so you might want to roll back your talking points. A govt fire dept, staffed by PUBLIC UNION firefighters.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr ya it was city operated but they made it private by only offering the service free for those inside the city limits those in neighboring townships where there isnt enough money to create a fire dept has to pay a fee that is privatization just its being run by the city not a company but the same thing would have happened if it was a company privatization is always the same want proof just stop paying stop paying your hydro bill see how lenient they are about late payments
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell "Its public but when they charge a fee its private". You're truly an idiot. The water co. is a public utility regulated by state utility boards, run by individual cities and their PUBLIC UNIONS. The requirement for timely bill payments is evidence of privatization? Quite the contrary. Private companies know all they can do is send you to a collection agency, not cut off your power or lights. Public services providers are more despotic than private, they know they've got you.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr lol if that's how your hydro is operated then we are more capitalistic then you guys, power is no longer a govt operated system here but rather operated by a city or private companies and if a payment is missed or late they have the power as long as its not winter to shut off you power, so my point is invalid to based on location.
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@jteutulsr as for quoting me next time try actually qouting me what i said was that the city has a fire dept people inside get the privilege of not having to worry about charges now those out side of the city no they have to pay that is privatization its no longer public because services inst guaranteed even with someone willing to pay the charge but are willing to come out and protect the one who already payed you want a better example then look at it like this

@jteutulsr we all have access to police as a public service they come fill out a report and either haul some one off or investigate now imagine if that same police officer came and you didn't pay the fee and someone robbed your house but the police only came out only to check on your neighbor who paid the fee would you consider that private of course you would its called private security. just because something is private doesnt mean it is limited to a company or person it can be a govt service

@jteutulsr you along with the other 99% of america fights over the 65 that's left and as the top 1% wealth increase poverty and unemployment will rise while you still yell America is number one mean while countries like china and Russia will pass you by until your at the bottom of the list and your country resembles that of a 3rd world country but ya damn those socialist communists liberals for wanting regulation and stability
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell the reason that china and russia are excelling is due to the very capitalist policies that libs like you abhor. both countries have lower corporate tax rates than america and have also adopted a flat tax system. china is also incredibly nationalist, minimizing their imports. I wont deny that the recent economic policy moves made by the US have been wrong, but i wont engage in class warfare that people like you thrive on, spending your entire lives convincing people they cant succeed
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr i dont thrive on it i point it out i believe everyone has a chance at succeeding but i also realize that the richer you are the greater the chance and the poorer you are the less the chance but like anyhting there are exceptions. now when it comes to china yes there new found capitalist look is making them money but it doesnt help that us companies keep sending them jobs because the employees there make far less and have fewer right like no pensions or holidays or max hours per day
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell I will agree with you on your last point, but as i said, in order to bring the manufacturing base back to the US that made us strong in the past will require the type of capitalist resurgence that liberals are unwilling to accomodate. Labor unions, taxes, and environmental regulations drove manufacturers from this country because labor and the rest made the cost of doing business artificially expensive. Mitigate those factors, and you can start to rebuild the middle class.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr ya but a quick and easy way to make it so they come back would be to increase fees for all imports to a lvl that it is actually more expensive to build abroad and decrease exporting goods, as for unions and environment regulation driving business away i cant see this as a valid claim because in ontario canada the govt has increased min wage every year fro 7.25 to now 10.25 and has far more regulation but yet there are still jobs and we are out of the rescission or at least very close
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@jteutulsr so i fail to see regulation on toxic waste and labour unions as the prime cause as here the govt is raising the min wage and has far more regulation as we signed the kioto accord so i see those as excuses
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell The minimum wage is immaterial as most workers are paid above minimum wage. Only non skilled and young workers are paid the minimum. The effect that labor unions have in making labor, thus goods artificially expensive is too complex to be explained in 500 characters and if you dont understand the connection I question your economic astuteness and ability to effectively and factually argue this issue.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr the point of min wage been raised is to show that people here are making a min of 10.25 an hour no matter what the job as compared to other places where it can be as low as 6-7 and hour showing that with a higher cost of employees does not mean jobs instantly disappear as the unemployment here is lower then most states and regualtions is much stricter. so im trying to show a point that unions or increased employee wages and regulation do not = less jobs
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell canada is also making good use of its lucrative natural resources, namely oil. Your economy is thriving in spite of your govts socialistic policies, not because of them. If exploitation of your natural resources were to be arrested, loss of manufacturing, and govt tampering with markets and business as has happened here, your economy would be very much in the same state. Canada is the exception, not the rule. See: Europe
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr 1)you clearly dont understand canada to much our oil isnt our oil we sell it you the states then have to buy it back our gas prices are higher then your because of it and as for oil it only effect Alberta as its the only oil rich province so its the only one getting royalties i live in ontario where our natural resource is fresh water which doesn't turn up much profit so we are a province highly dependent on labor not resources
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell As a natural resource, your federal govt reaps a benefit from taxes on the sale of said oil. As far as gas prices, that is a product of your govt's confiscatory energy taxes and environmental regulation, as well as a lack of refining capacity. The fact that you're "dependent on labor" means there is still a strong manufacturing base.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr ya there is still a strong manufacturing base i also said this after i mentioned twice we have far more regulations on companies and far more tax making my point that regulation alone does not drive away manufacturing and to put all the blame on unions and regulations is ludicrous
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@jteutulsr 2) as for being socialist thats funny last time i checked we have a conservative govt in with a majority but if your referring to our healthcare well then your an idiot if you call us that because we regulate then your an idiot. regulation has kept us from suffering a housing crash it has kept our banks fro making high risk investments it makes it so companys cant do what ever they want and that they are accountable for there actions
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell *you're* *companies*. As far as "conservative" goes, that's relative. They may be conservative to you but moderate or liberal to me. I'd have to examine their ideology. Calling me an idiot is hilarious when you clearly have no concept of spelling or a true capitalist economy. Our housing crisis is as much to blame on govt tampering as it is to blame on corporate malfeasance. Familiarize yourself with the glass steagall act and the graham leach bliley act that was signed by clinton.

@jteutulsr im sorry i didn't know spelling defines some one as an idiot might want to go tell all those phd and masters guys who cant spell a damn thing but can do complex math physics and chemical equations with out even thinking, i clearly called you an idiot because of scenarios where you called canada socialist and said your an idiot if its because of reason one or two so to take offense to that you must think we are socialist because of points one or two
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@cloudvszell many of the policies that have brought economic ruin to this country are liberal or socialistic in nature, principally the astronomical growth of entitlement spending brought by the existence of entitlement programs in general. Before you can compare economies, you must compare policy. If canada has not implemented policies similar to the US, then you cannot crow about the few socialist policies that are "working" where a slew of others have failed.
jteutulsr 9 months ago
@jteutulsr wait so your saying things like welfare or medicare are destroying the country? but the fact that your so called capitalist system is just a fake has nothing to do with it? i believe in true capitalism i also believe in some socialist aspects like universal medicare and police fire military but what i don't believe in is fake capitalism the way capitalism is supposed to work and had worked for years was one company wants your business more then the other they lower the price
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@jteutulsr but that stopped as soon as companies starting getting bigger and bigger now cities have 3 walmarts 2 zehrs 20 star bucks its no longer a competive market everyone goes to chains small business gets bought out or just plowed over when the new walmart is built right next door sure there are those that succeed but not nowhere near the big box stores and even when you think your shopping somewhere else you find out one company owns 5 chains true capitalism dies along time ago
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@jteutulsr i can compare thhe two be because they are similar but what has made them different is wat seperates one from working and the other from not for example both of our banks are allowed to invest because of deregulation in the us your banks are free to do what ever and in turn helped caused a global recession on the other hand Canadian banks are far more regulated and in turn did not get hit as bad when the rescission came
cloudvszell 9 months ago
@jteutulsr and i agree there are socialist aspects i do not agree with but there are fundamental ideas i do agree with for example fire, police, military, health, education and infrastructure but if you asked me if i agree if everyone should be paid the same no of course not but should there be a giant a gap no i don't believe any one on the face of the earth works hard enough in one hour to make 1000 dollars or 2 million at 40 hours a week 50 weeks of the year

@RCSlyman There was a belief that more working class Americans should become homeowners. The fee for service industry of collecting commissions for loans and servicing and damn the consequences became widespread, but all the federal government did was forbid banks from "red-lining," - they could not automatically reject loan applications from neighborhoods based on race or geographic location (indicating race). The banks could always reject loan applications based on lack of income/assets.

TARP was passed under Bush. Many bailouts were implemented under Bush and Obama (and Clinton, Bush 1, Reagan, and Satan). The question is why? Try to drop your cynical assumptions. Are there some real economics behind it? Like our dumbass in the video said in the Scientific Method video, "you can question it, in fact, you should." Absolutely! But you should engage the answers, even if they disagree with what you want. Sometimes, you learn you are wrong (like dr. dumbass in the video often is).
treefingers1206 1 year ago
@treefingers1206 i was opposed to the bailouts as they were passed because there were no strings or conditions along with the money. The bailuts pay off in the sense that if the companies fail then we have to pay massive amounts of unemployment

@MrAmericanPolitics No, I totally agree with where you are coming from. I actually went to talk last night with Henry Paulson and he said, "It's not that these banks were too big to fail...it's that they were too big to liquidate quickly." That's absolutely true...whether that SHOULD be the case is a different story...but the fact remains that that IS the case.

Besides, Mr. Political Expert, wasn't it determined that a number of those "proven" jobs created were in non-existent districts? And aren't unemployment rates at an obscene high? I could go on, but the point is that Obama is paying companies money they won't be able to pay back to make products nobody's buying. What's that called again? Waste.

@Omnitrix12 the bailouits ahve been nearly paid back to the government. Obama didnt give out the bailouts bush did. So to blame Obama for unemployment and the bailouts are stupid.

I'm an economist and I strongly agree with this video with only one or two exceptions. The biggest one: Neoclassical economics does *not* call for giving bailouts to businesses; instead, it says that bailouts won't work.
Anything that calls for "stimulating the economy" by fiscal policy (spending more, or cutting taxes) is Keynesian.
