Big government is NOT the solution! It is the problem. Big governments "create jobs" by raising taxes, printing money and/or putting all of us into more debt. Not that we get much choice.

[pismo10]

If the govt would leave things alone we would all be much better off.

[Tressco]

So, you prefer corporate fascism over government fascism...wise choice...?

"The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks."

- Lord Acton

[pismo10]

Corps cannot pass laws forcing you to do what they say. The govt can, wake up...

The issue that has swept down thru history is the people vs the govt. Always has been, always will. I choose to be on the side of the people and liberals choose to support the govt for some blind reason.

[ISeeThemNow]

I agree with your comments pismo10. Govt is the problem at the origin, and in their self-serving nature they gave control of the currency to central banks that inflate people to eventual poverty. That being said, right now with the central banks now having more power than govt, the fight will be people vs. the banks.

[pismo10]

@ISeeThemNow

Govt or Central banks..same thing. Mindless bureaucrats.

[Tressco]

Since the US Citizens United verdict corporations can now legally buy their laws.

In Germany some hotelier bought his own law for 1 million € in campaign contribution.

According to Mussolini, the merger of state and corporate power is called fascism...

[grraadd]

I don't speak dutch..........

I can hardly understand russian (strange that estonians would speak russian) - dutch TV obviously doesn't have estonian translators - no subtitles and I don't even guess what the guy is talking about.

Overall interesting video, but sad - very sad.

[99hoolio]

Who's the economist? Anybody know her name?

[ytgv3fc7]

the changing climate is already causing food shortages, trade in us$ with deflating us$ is making imports of food harder to come by unless people refuse to trade using us$ and the cost of oil for transport and refrigeration is a huge factor as well.

If you don't have local food and can't afford to transport it frozen it's as good as non-existent.

[MilanTbay]

@ytgv3fc7 The "food shortage" is a capitalist myth. The less of a product the more people will pay for it. Create a "food shortage" and people will pay anything to eat.

Canada and probably Russia as well burn off wheat to keep the world price up or it would be a "worthless commodity."

[ytgv3fc7]

Absolutely not. We do no such thing.

[MilanTbay]

We've done it on many occasions when we have a SURPLUS of wheat.

[ytgv3fc7]

nope. Not true.

[ytgv3fc7]

The food shortage SHOULD have been a myth. The capitalist CAUSE of its reality is to destory farmland for industry and urban expansion and to claim that free trade will help us instead, so we can transport food from far away and have no worries. You have to understand how this really works.

[MilanTbay]

I do understand how it works perfectly well.

You have some great points but the earth can easily sustain 2x as many people.

[ytgv3fc7]

Sure, if we refuse to depend on far-away transport for food, if we all ensure people who have coastal / low-land dwellings are prepared for flooding, if we do not permit wealth-confiscation en-masse of the vast majority to stock-pile into the holdings of the most wealth (Rothschilds, Rockefellers, other Central Bankers/controllers etc.), then I suppose we'd be fine.

Another good habit for people to get into is preparing food to be long-lasting

[ytgv3fc7]

dried, jarred, canned, anything that keeps without having to be refrigerated for transport. Just think of the reduction of risk of food going bad or the cost of transportation. Just think of the food savings if we stop the stupid expansion of cities so we all can have space to grow food again. The costs would dramatically drop, as would the risk of catastrophe.

[MilanTbay]

True that bud.

Was talking to someone about community fruit trees, Just walk down the street and grab an apple if you like.

We can do a better job of building smarter cities.

[MarcusCMarcellus]

It's so funny how the Keyensian leftist woman is trapped in her left-right paradigm whereas Faber and Rogers are so beyond that and approach things like adults. Oh, and she believes in the "change in the climate."

Why are most women so carelessly liberal? Sorry, but it's true.

[qstendious]

She wasn't so bad compared to some others (people in general I mean, not just women). And isn't the second part of your comment a bit hypocritical? The term "liberal" is part of the paradigm you seem to be against. Liberal, conservative, left, right, the state's joke is on everyone who uses and identifies with those terms. That is how the state divides, distracts, and conquers the population.

[MarcusCMarcellus]

Fair observation, re: my usage of liberal. But I guess my point is that self-consciously liberal commentators tend to think in terms of goods guys-bad guys, whereas Faber just thinks the whole system is fundamentally bankrupt, literally and morally. Anyway, thanks for responding.

[MilanTbay]

@qstendious The terms have been muddied up and turned to double speak like everything else but there basic concept remains in tact from a political science perspective.

The "right" want laws, controls and society to develop slowly and carefully. The "left" want freedom and don't feel all those laws are worth it.

Problem is it's a sliding scale and people have been trained in a "us vs them" mentality so you are one or the other when in truth most are in the middle.

[qstendious]

Thanks, that's exactly what I mean, it's team A vs. team B. What people should know is that originally the two current dominant parties actually started out as one, the democratic-republican party.

This can be simplified even further. There are two kinds of people, those that understand they are born sovereign and no man has the right to rule them in any way. They understand they are free by nature and did not consent to the laws that govern them. And there are those who don't.

[MilanTbay]

@qstendious True that. Sovereignty lies in the individual. Laws don't make men free, it enslaves them.

The Tacit Social Contract that they use is Social Date Rape.

[mrzack888]

there's nothing wrong with a little keyensian. it's the excessive abuse of keynesian that's the problem.

[mrzack888]

nein speakenze deutsch. english please.

[jhunted7667]

notice their food pantries are all full we should take notice of what they do they know all too welll what can happen
