  • Control. Hitler wasn't really socialist, he was a dictator who enacted socialist reforms. By spending money on large scale national projects he "saved" the german economy. But this wasn't socialism, more massive state intervention in the guise of socialism.

  • Neither. Stalin was state capitalist/dictator and the labour party are a reactionary party (they're tradionally thought of as socialist only in so far as they're not (or wern't) pro-capitalist)

  • @lvll138inrs that is a bad thing about America.

  • im glad i live in america. unions in this country have no where near the amount of power as they do in europe.

  • hmmm..maybe its more direct and honest to ask the kids if they know what a bully is, the adults ask them if they're familiar with the mafia.

    ask union boss has details he'll tell you what to do.. right Mr. Hoffa? Mr. Hoffa? as far as the philosophy establishing Trade Unions,communism, it suffices useful idiots to explain : it is fair and all get equal amounts - (except high ranking party officials, police, judges etc ) and no one complains, all have a job, a place to live, safe w/ no problem

  • use the iphone song finder app

  • Offtopic, but what's that song at the end, anyone know?

  • The trade unions which are run by corporations which are run by fiat debt are the big losers here in America. "Small buisness" cannot compete with labor rackets. It's that simple. Trade union workers remain working class, corporations can do no wrong (democratic state support), fiat debt suddenly has a reason to exsist through debt. It's an ugly structure within a country that doesn't want it.

  • Trade Unions are an outdated relic from the early 1900s that alleges to stand up for working people when theres already enough laws to protect workers & to plug any new exploitations of morals.

    Now they exist purely for the benefit of the unions leaders who draw huge salaries for holding businesses to ransom without realising if workers go on strike, the company wont make money, will have to cut costs & lay off staff in a vicious spiral where everybody except public bodies end up bankrupt.

  • Trade unions pretend to not be self serving, but they are. Through your labor, you build (build wealth) by literally building the infrastructure of a fiat-currency banking system. The banks intern PRINT MONEY, hand you your 15 dollars an hour and send you on your way or maybe even PROMISE YOU MORE WORK if you are not first begging for it. From there the banks of something to make them look like they are worth something and say it's a "billion dollar building"

  • Someone who helps drive off industry to where they are welcome, China/India mostly.

    Think about UK when they unions had control in the 1960's,don't forget this!
