Southern States are effectively subsidised by more productive states in US. Texas is probably the only productive state in old south ( Virginia and NC I considered more in line with new southern mentality of technology, science).
Mississipi, South Carolina, Arkansas are effectively like the PIIGS nation, while California is Germany - heavily indebted but a well functioning, entrepeneurial economy.
I notice at times, some left wing thugs on the this DH website/channel. As usual, they post derogatory comments towards Mr. Hannan and sometimes they approach with two faced, sort of backhanded comments towards Mr. Hannon or towards conservatism. Please remember, leftwings are thugs, like to intimidate, like to control. They like to pollute any thing that is conservative becuase they like to intrude in the few places left that are not dominated by their garbage and manipulation tacticts.
The UK will be forced to pay up one way or another as Southern Europeans et al have started flocking here. Yet another wave of mgrants for the British taxpayer to house and feed. WE WANT OUT OF THE EU!
@harperonline I support his domestic and economic policy, but his policy on terrorism and Iran is naive. That's why most of us think he's a nutter, though I wouldn't use that term. I merely disagree with his foreign policy. It's too libertarian and isolationist.
@postmasterw00t Oh, really? I do believe that it is Iranian policy to cause enough chaos on earth to signal in the arrival of the Twelve Iman, according to Islamic eschatology. President Achmadinajad preaches this all the time.
@postmasterw00t Perhaps we should've minded our own business during World War II and let Hitler teach German to the Eurocontinent. We minded our own business during Rwanda. Wow...that turned out great, huh?
@holdenc96 The rothschilds funded both sides in WW2, If America WAS benevolent they would have gone into Zimbabwe instead of Iraq, what about vietnam? no justified reason, Libya, no reason. The Anglo-American powerhouse pick on whichever country they see as advantageous to thier own greed and dominance, USA (the people that run the country, rockerfeller, rothschidsl dont want to libertate they want to PILLAGE. Iran was a democracy in the 50s the USA put a dictator in charge. WAKE UP.
branding people nutters because you disagree with opinion is fair enough but the facts dont lie, Iran in the 50s, do the research moron, was vietnam a good idea? what about all the other lesser known opperations? what about northwoods? fuck you, closed minded prick you wouldnt suspect something even if it slapped you in the face.
Im English so my support is irrelevant. Ron Paul will not be the nominee because the media and people like you are too deluded and brainwashed to see past the nose on the end of your face without being told whats there. The fact Ron has got this far is comforting, it means not everyone is like you.
@postmasterw00t Ah, I smell the ugly odour of a fascist. Let's not mention Hitler's Jihad (which he explained in his infamous book My Struggle). Let's not mention the Ottoman Empire that contributed absolutely NOTHING to the modern world. Let's not mention the supremacist superstition that has crippled the entire ME and North Africa for 1,000 years. Europe exterminated 6 million Jews and replaced them with 20 million fanatical Muslims who openly despise their host countries.
@ritchloui Facist? i would place myself very far on the left actually, not quite as far as communism though. I dont believe we should even have a government. Do you even know what facism is? You talk some right bullshit
@postmasterw00t Hahaha. It sounds like you have no idea what the 'far left' means; it means centralised and large government. The far right and the far left are ideologically very similar; they are dogmatic idealists who have only ever been able to create dystopias whilst insisting that extermination is not their fault and they must have more power to continue with their experiment at governance.
I meant left wing in terms of liberalisation, egalitarianism, freedom of expression and anarchy quite frankly. Not the warped and corrupted ideals we have seen in the past in the USSR. Unfornately for the common people you are spot on in your analysis of current affairs and we will likely never see an uncorrupted and true form of left wing politics in action because of the greed of man and the current disparities that already exist.
@postmasterw00t I think we, in the West, have been under a rather unhealthy illusion that our systems of representation and governance are very robust. They are not and can easily be subverted. The British system took 1,000 years of struggle and bloodshed as it muddled its way along. I think the US has yet to really deal with its southern states. My understanding is that they have deteriorated into a prison based as opposed to slave based economy. Is that unfair?
You are misinformed about US economic trends. The southern states and Rocky Mountain states have had the most growth due to business and growth friendly policies. The former industrial stronghold in the midwest and northeast is now called the Rust Belt. California, Illinois, New York and several other states are virtually bankrupt from their bloated public unions. Most of the northern and coastal union states have forced-union laws. Less than 10% of US workers are in unions.
@holdenc96 - Iran are easy to deal are are no real threat with in comparison with say, North Korea or dare I say it China (if they decided to get angry - god help us if they do). The 'isolationist' term is a bad choice; North Korea are isolationist not the Ron Paul's foriegn policy vision as he wants to trade and be friends with other contries rather that steam rollering them into his way of thinking (look at the Swiss).
For example: If you have a nice neighbour who helps you and you help him then the street is a great place to live in. But, what about the rich neighbour who tells you what to do and what colour to paint your house. We have all had these type of neigbours and we all don't like them.
What happens if this rich neighbours moves in to your house without permission as he thinks you have a dangerous dog but you really have a poodle?
The purpose of the EU was to destroy the sovereignty of the individual nation states. Britain and several others which held on to their own currencies failed to completely surrender to a Euro-dictatorship. Good for them! A nation must maintain its currency if it is to remain sovereign.
@Stephanavich ...and turns the shot gun on yourself. UK national debt is going to a trillion £'s this year. That's more than £34,450 for every person in employment. Every household will pay £2,110 this year, just to cover the interest. When your Government runs up huge debts and produces NOTHING to show for it, you're the ones that shoulder the burden. This year that burden will grow by £167.9 billion. Keep printing, England has enough wood to do the job. ;)
@Tralgit 2.7 trillion Euros debt spread over 300 million plus tax payers in the EU is not that hard of a job for the politicians to spread and sell compared to 60 million in England who hold 1.3 trillion Euros in debt. The latest hike in collage tuition should be an indicator as to who they are footing the bill too. Your future. The same will happen here. I'm not saying one is better then the other.Were all in the same boat/titanic.Its fantasy believing one currency is better off then the other.
@Tralgit Me too.This EU shit has imploded finances and governance just like they wanted, way back when in 1950.Hitler wanted it aswell,he chose violence for his views and fantasies.The EU did it the easy way,dis information,propaganda and schooling by the same people that funded Hitler.Time means nothing to the vampires. Anyway you look at it recourses and tax payers systems are under control of un elected mother fuckers.Replacing presidents with technocrats is nothing other then a dictatorship.
@TheReallitycheck how is this exactly an argument for against using the pound. The fact that we have the flexibility to at least try and adjust our economy is more than anyone else in Europe can say. DO you really think that Germany can pay off all the EU debt?
@Stephanavich Its not against the pound at all, nor can Germany pay of the EU debt. How will you adjust to repaying 1 trillion pounds in debt? Try what? Screw the elderly, the students, the childrens futures? No one will borrow to anyone. So print and devalue is all they know. Did you give your Gov. the mandate to borrow money or print fiat to pay off debt with more debt, only to make you foot the bill? If they wanted money to fulfill your wishes they should have asked, not run up the debt.
"I told you so", has been on my lips now for a year, but I'm too nice to SHOUT it in every ones face. Since 2001 I've been telling friends and family about the inevitable,911,vaccines,tptb, fiat currencies,propaganda,(social)scientific engineering, etc. First they laughed but throughout the years the laughter has dissipated and now they kind of shun you on subjects when your around. Putting to rest wish full thinking and distortions of the truth is risky and costs you. I do it for the children.
Nations are natural self-governing communities of shared ethnicity and culture. Rather like very extended family. Other arrangements intended to supplant that natural function are precarious, and usually illegitimate, contrivances.
What's more funny is all the american right wingers who love Daniel Hannan failing to ignore his solution of QE for the periphery.
Ron Paul supporters, I'm sure will still love him :)
