  5. ​​ @aeroAdvocate  Bad thing is, the UK has an extradition treaty with Japan. And Nissan has much more influence with politicians, hence the persecution...err "prosecution". And now we know why Nissan tried to use the justice system against former CEO Ghosn, who had to flee japan in luggage. "Foreigner workers are trouble. Foreigner CEOs exponentially so." - Corporate Japan As a Japanese citizen, this aspect really pisses me off.

  19. Oddly enough, it was the Americans who had a similar immigration policy with nzi Germany. The Americans turned back ships carrying Jews. Fascism in America existed back then and still does today, just a bit more masked and less racist. Corporate bought politicians; wars and constantly finding enemies to fight; demonizing and even persecution of socialists, communists, and LGBTQ+; and belief in a single point for martial law and command of the military. Chiune Sugihara, a japanese diplomat in Lithuania, even rescued and arranged for their transport to safety. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiune_Sugihara I don't condone the Imperial japanese military or its actions. There certainly were war crimes. All nations responsible should fess up and teach that, as well as tolerance and how to spot propaganda. Let's stop the cycle of history.

  24. imho, instead of purges, they should have had multiple political parties that, if needed to be constrained, be constrained only by being a communist or socialist party. In other words, Lenin, Stalin, a Russian Mao, and Trotsky would all be the leader of their own communist parties within the supreme soviet, instead of one leader getting power and expelling or killing the others. Majority or coalition would be needed to pass laws. Ideally, 5-9 parties in the supreme soviet and 2-4 parties in govt would allow for negotiation and competition for votes on the best future for the soviet union. This could even be extended to all of a global communist union.

He talks about replacement theory, which im not familiar with, but can use context clues that it's about immigrants replacing native ethnic finns. My question in that is, how is that replacement theory invalid or racist? For example, if I have a cup of coke and slowly pour in Dr pepper, when does the coke cease being coke and become more of a Dr pepper? And even if new coke is dripping into the coke cup, it's not fast enough to keep the Dr pepper pouring in from replacing the coke. Apologies if controversial, I am genuinely curious. Thank you. 😌🇯🇵

  44. Personally, I think the best immigration policy is family sponsorship. Individuals and families (citizens) living in the host country can choose to sponsor an immigrant and family. The sponsor would try to get the immigrant a job and home (prerequisites to sponsorship?). The city/county would interview the employer, the sponsor, and two civic organisations that they belong to (church, AFPCA, ACLU, NRA, etc). If they pass after 10 inspections/2 years, then they become permanent residents and no longer need the sponsor. If they fail, then they are returned. If they don't want to sponsor, they don't have to. If no one sponsors in that city, then no immigrants are housed in that city. If people complain about tough immigration, they are welcome to sponsor. If they complain about too many immigrants, they can choose not to sponsor.

  64. Just would like to add that I'm glad many people are becoming less transphobic nowadays, or at least can openly profess such. It used to not be like this: didn't matter what political ideology one belonged to. It wasn't just the nazis (LGBTQ had their own symbol in concentration camps). Both the soviet union and the US were criminally transphobic. Even the accusation could lose someone their job, blacklisted, and even arrested. Witch hunts have existed throughout history. Some say we still have that with accusations of he said, she said. No political party at the time advocated for LGBTQ. Some, even on the left, including their leaders, said it was a mental illness and they should be institutionalized. Sure, not everyone were anti-LGBTQ. Oscar Wilde, a socialist, was an advocate. But these were few in number, with some even in the classic liberal (right libertarian) side defending saying the govt shouldn't get involved or criminalize. We all like to think we're enlightened when we just follow the trend. Remember when advocating for eugenics found favour in both the socialists and capitalists?

  68. ​@jasonwalker9471 Doubt he would do anything either. The housing issue is one that spans political ideology. Some people have houses for investments and by building more houses, you lower their investments. And vice versa. It's the political hot potato. Talk a good game but do nothing. Remember, Labour parties in Australia, NZ, and the UK were traditionally socialist or social democratic parties. If Clement Atlee were elected from the Old Labour Party today, he would have made a national housing service where people paid a tax and were given homes based on need without any upfront costs or mortgages. And he would have funded both NHS's properly. What these countries have today is not Labour, but conservative lite.

  69. Agreed. Calling capitalism something else (crony capitalism, corporatism, etc) when it doesn't jive with one's belief is as bad as calling socialism something else when it doesn't jive with one's belief on the other side (state capitalism, etc). Bad thing is, I think you do it too. Both socialists and capitalists blame others when their dream of utopia doesn't come true. People will say America isn't Capitalist, other people will say the Soviet Union wasn't socialist. 🙈🙉🙊

  96. I had similar thoughts (☆), but I'm japanese, not German 😅 Bit late, but 4 things: ☆1) Believe the ß (ss) can only be used as long as the two Ss are not different morphemes. Would you retain the morpheme distinction? And this: "Buße (IPA: [ˈbuːsə], penance) and Busse (IPA: [ˈbʊsə], buses) on the other (long vowel before ⟨ß⟩, short vowel before ⟨ss⟩)." Would you also retain a length distinction? 2) the schwa should only be used for the e. The "Schwi" ( ɨ)(unstressed, unaccented i), the ø, and the (ɐ) should be used to represent the unaccented, unstressed "uh" sounds for i, o, & a, respectively. 3) Why not get rid of c? It tries to be two letters and can confuse. Why not just use s and k? 4) how about t+r and d+r? Many dialects of English pronounce this as chr and jr, respectively (train ➡️ chrain, dragon ➡️ jragon)

And this: "Buße (IPA: [ˈbuːsə], penance) and Busse (IPA: [ˈbʊsə], buses) on the other (long vowel before ⟨ß⟩, short vowel before ⟨ss⟩)." Would you also retain a length distinction? 2) the schwa should only be used for the e. The "Schwi" ( ɨ)(unstressed, unaccented i), the ø, and the (ɐ) should be used to represent the unaccented, unstressed "uh" sounds for i, o, & a, respectively. ☆3) Why not get rid of c? It tries to be two letters and can confuse. Why not just use s and k? 4) how about t+r and d+r? Many dialects of English pronounce this as chr and jr, respectively (train ➡️ chrain, dragon ➡️ jragon)

  130. imho, instead of purges, they should have had multiple political parties that, if needed to be constrained, be constrained only by being a communist or socialist party. In other words, Lenin, Stalin, a Russian Mao, and Trotsky would all be the leader of their own communist parties within the supreme soviet, instead of one leader getting power and expelling or killing the others. Majority or coalition would be needed to pass laws. Ideally, 5-9 parties in the supreme soviet and 2-4 parties in govt would allow for negotiation and competition for votes on the best future for the soviet union.

  159. Just would like to add that I'm glad many people are becoming less transphobic nowadays, or at least can openly profess such. It used to not be like this: didn't matter what political ideology one belonged to. It wasn't just the nazis (LGBTQ had their own symbol in concentration camps). Both the soviet union and the US were criminally transphobic. Even the accusation could lose someone their job, blacklisted, and even arrested. Witch hunts have existed throughout history. Some say we still have that with accusations of he said, she said. No political party at the time advocated for LGBTQ. Some, even on the left, including their leaders, said it was a mental illness and they should be institutionalized. Sure, not everyone were anti-LGBTQ. Oscar Wilde, a socialist, was an advocate. But these were few in number, with some even in the classic liberal (right libertarian) side defending saying the govt shouldn't get involved or criminalize. We all like to think we're enlightened when we just follow the trend. Remember when advocating for eugenics found favour in both the socialists and capitalists?

The 6th republic would do well as a parliamentary system or even better as a Swiss federal system with each of its 18 regions (or each of its 96 smaller regions called departments) becoming semi-sovereign cantons with the federation of France. The 7 member collective executive council couldn't fire each other and would be comprised of leaders from different parties and regions. The symbolic presidency of the council would rotate.

  214. AI written case that cites 3 real case laws (relevance unsure 😅. Also, I'm not a lawyer. As a legal representative, it is my duty to defend my client, Bill, in federal court. Despite the heinous nature of his crimes, I will be citing three different case laws regarding self defense and freedom of speech in my defense. Bill claims that the victims were asking for it by using the restroom too loudly, and it is my job to present a strong case for his defense. The first case law I will be citing is the landmark Supreme Court case of District of Columbia v. Heller, which established an individual's right to bear arms for self defense. Additionally, I will be referencing the case of Brandenburg v. Ohio, which established that speech advocating for lawless action is protected under the First Amendment. Finally, I will be citing the case of State v. Wanrow, which established that an individual has the right to use deadly force in self defense if they reasonably believe it is necessary to prevent death or serious injury. While I understand the severity of the charges against my client, it is my duty as a legal representative to present a strong defense. I am confident in my ability to do so, and I will continue to work diligently in order to ensure that justice is served in this case. However, I must express my extreme disapproval and pessimism about the nature of the crimes my client has been accused of, and I hope that the court will take all factors into consideration when making their decision.

The sponsor would try to get the immigrant a job and home (prerequisites to sponsorship?). The city/county would interview the employer, the sponsor, and two civic organisations that they belong to (church, AFPCA, ACLU, NRA, etc). If they pass after 10 inspections/2 years, then they become permanent residents and no longer need the sponsor. If they fail, then they are returned. If they don't want to sponsor, they don't have to. If no one sponsors in that city, then no immigrants are housed in that city. If people complain about tough immigration, they are welcome to sponsor. If they complain about too many immigrants, they can choose not to sponsor.

  231. @Alan Parry  That pretty much is the first definition of socialism seen here: socialism sō′shə-lĭz″əm noun Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy. The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which the means of production are collectively owned but a completely classless society has not yet been achieved. Specifically, in Germany, legislation, supported by Prince Bismarck, intended to improve the condition of the working-man. Among the measures included were the insurance of workmen against accident, sickness, and old age, and the establishment of cooperative associations under state protection.

  235. Native American societies were, for the most part, thriving, but were far from advanced. Their technology would be considered stone age compared to the Europeans upon first arrival. After the European arrival, they later used the European guns, but never manufactured their own, nor bullets, or cannons. I'm not sure if they ever built their own tech after modelling European farming, etc, however. Yes, smallpox would have decimated the natives, but the advancement prior to European arrival was stone age as I stated earlier (outside the meso-american tribes, like the aztecs). This is not a slight on them—they simply were content with the way things were. There was no drive to invent new things. Societally, it could be seen as upsetting the Applecart or be given the "this is the way we've always done it" excuse. Economically, the land snd other resources were collectively owned so it would be exceptionally hard to begin creation, even if not stopped by the tribal elders.

  237. maybe have a govt provided pension funded by govt investments in stocks, bonds, etc (sovereign wealth fund). Govts with currency sovereignty cannot go broke. Individuals can. Retirees should be able to afford a new car every 10 years, to stay in their home (able to pay property taxes), yearly cruise or other international vacation, 2 domestic vacations, and dozens of books and daily entertainment, food & drink. To paraphrase a certain captain: "I don't wanna just survive. I wanna live!" The question is: should you work for the economy, or should the economy work for you?

  241. Native American societies were, for the most part, thriving, but were far from advanced. Their technology would be considered stone age compared to the Europeans upon first arrival. After the European arrival, they later used the European guns, but never manufactured their own, nor bullets, or cannons. I'm not sure if they ever built their own tech after modelling European farming, etc, however. Yes, smallpox would have decimated the natives, but the advancement prior to European arrival was stone age as I stated earlier (outside the meso-american tribes, like the aztecs). This is not a slight on them—they simply were content with the way things were. There was no drive to invent new things. Societally, it could be seen as upsetting the Applecart or be given the "this is the way we've always done it" excuse. Economically, the land snd other resources were collectively owned so it would be exceptionally hard to begin creation, even if not stopped by the tribal elders. And lastly, if the elders and fellow tribesmen wouldn't even give them a chance, what incentive would they have? Not saying socialism is bad, but it does tend to make people comfortable with the way things are, stagnating society and the economy. Funnily enough, Star trek TNG kinda gave off that vibe too (with exception of picards private vineyard, many believe it has the appearance of space communism).

  242. Instead of a revolution or complete overhaul, why not just do one thing: change the Corporation Act? Require any corporation that wants limited liability to become a worker, consumer, or producer co-op? Holding companies for conglomerates could be producer co-ops, while Amazon and Walmart could be worker-consumer hybrid co-ops. This will preserve pluralism and allow freedom of expression much easier, and acts as a check on the govt. Plus, it brings in economic democracy, especially if consumers are also members of their respective co-op. Those that are exclusively consumer co-ops could have a guild/union that would be a worker co-op for workers from that consumer co-op or across consumer co-ops in the same field. And the new Corporation Act would automatically require the creation or joining of that worker co-op union.

Fascism in America existed back then and still does today, just a bit more masked and less racist. Corporate bought politicians; wars and constantly finding enemies to fight; demonizing and even persecution of socialists, communists, and LGBTQ+; and belief in a single point for martial law and command of the military.

  251. imho, instead of purges, they should have had multiple political parties that, if needed to be constrained, be constrained only by being a communist or socialist party. In other words, Lenin, Stalin, a Russian Mao, and Trotsky would all be the leader of their own communist parties within the supreme soviet, instead of one leader getting power and expelling or killing the others. Majority or coalition would be needed to pass laws. Ideally, 5-9 parties in the supreme soviet and 2-4 parties in govt (state council) would allow for negotiation and competition for votes on the best future for the soviet union.

Restore the true bicameralism instead of the 6 month delay so that bills passed by the Commons but failed in the lords must have a joint conference committee to resolve before being sent to the king for assent. If agreement can't be reached, then the bill fails. I might add double dissolution as in australia to prevent the deadlocks of the US.

The presidential system is prone to dictatorship and one strong man, whereas parliamentary system particularly with proportional representation provides much more checks on the executive (cabinet) and no single executive leader means power is shared.

  264. Housing people shouldn't be a political issue anymore than the question "should slavery exist?" What can be political is how to do it. Progressives: the govt provides subsidies for the local average rent/mortgage. Socialists: the govt provides national housing service, which gives everyone a home (similar to the national health service in UK). Conservatives: in exchange for lower or 0 corporate tax, companies, or chambers of commerce for local small businesses, provide a housing allowance pegged to the local average rent/mortgage. Libertarians/independents who don't like the above: give everyone UBI, paid via natural resource taxes. The UBI is designed to have no more than 50% be for housing costs.

In addition, slavery was embedded in the constitution (⅗ of a person). The other was of sovereignty (states rights). Hmm. That sounds familiar.

  304. Also, I'm curious why money has no set unit of value, one that cannot change. Gold, while more stable, can have more mines discovered or a refinery process added to increase supply, for example. An actual unit of value would mean that a dollar has a set unit of value for all time, set by the international standards of weights and measures. We don't float the kilometre or the litre, nor peg them to gold or jugs, so why shouldn't money be treated the same with scientific measurements? Perhaps a dollar could be 1MB of data travelling through a standard fibre optic cable at speed of light? Can you imagine floating the kilometre? One day a kilometre is equivalent to a mile, the next day everybody sells and the kilometre ilhas been devalued to 3 inches. What are your thoughts on cigarettes as currency in prisons, or pokemon cards as currency for kids? Does the lack of gold backing take away the value the people have for it?

  347. Another thought—why not make the UK federal, with the house of lords becoming a senate of equal number of Scottish, North Irish, Welsh, and English senators (we can still call them lords for historical and touristic reasons)? Restore the true bicameralism instead of the 6 month delay so that bills passed by the Commons but failed in the lords must have a joint conference committee to resolve before being sent to the king for assent. If agreement can't be reached, then the bill fails. I might add double dissolution as in australia to prevent the deadlocks of the US. I'd also make sure it's MMP as in New Zealand & Germany (at large seats with 100: if the green party gets 7% of the vote, they get 7 seats, etc).

  352. Little late, but if I may ask: If you're making, let's say $9.9 million from your YouTube videos, why would you contemplate leaving Australia if it had a 70% income tax rate on income over $10 million as it wouldnt affect you? Even if you made $10,000,100, you'd only be taxed at the 70% rate on the amount over $10 million ($100). As such, you'd pay $70 extra. Not a socialist by any means, but please remember, the social welfare system was in place partially to stave off a communist revolution in many countries. Starving and homeless people aren't just going to curl up and die. They will mobilize and fight back. The social welfare system was a necessary compromise with the govt and business to continue capitalism. Lastly, if you made it this far (sorry), do you think a 3 tiered VAT/sales tax could replace the income tax without aggravating the balance described? 0-15% for essentials (housing, food), 25-75% for average goods, and 100-200% for luxury goods? Please adjust percentages if you want (I did say replace income tax).😊

  364. Also, I'm curious why money has no set unit of value, one that cannot change. Gold, while more stable, can have more mines discovered or a refinery process added to increase supply, for example. An actual unit of value would mean that a dollar has a set unit of value for all time, set by the international standards of weights and measures. We don't float the kilometre or the litre, nor peg them to gold or jugs, so why shouldn't money be treated the same with scientific measurements? Perhaps a dollar could be 1MB of data travelling through a standard fibre optic cable at speed of light? Can you imagine floating the kilometre? One day a kilometre is equivalent to a mile, the next day everybody sells and the kilometre ilhas been devalued to 3 inches. What are your thoughts on cigarettes as currency in prisons, or pokemon cards as currency for kids? Does the lack of gold backing take away the value the people have for it?

Would you retain the morpheme distinction? And this: "Buße (IPA: [ˈbuːsə], penance) and Busse (IPA: [ˈbʊsə], buses) on the other (long vowel before ⟨ß⟩, short vowel before ⟨ss⟩)." Would you also retain a length distinction? ☆2) the schwa should only be used for the e. The "Schwi" ( ɨ)(unstressed, unaccented i), the ø, and the (ɐ) should be used to represent the unaccented, unstressed "uh" sounds for i, o, & a, respectively. 3) Why not get rid of c? It tries to be two letters and can confuse. Why not just use s and k? 4) how about t+r and d+r? Many dialects of English pronounce this as chr and jr, respectively (train ➡️ chrain, dragon ➡️ jragon)

  380. maybe have a govt provided pension funded by govt investments in stocks, bonds, etc (sovereign wealth fund). Govts with currency sovereignty cannot go broke. Individuals can.

  381. Personally, I think the best immigration policy is family sponsorship. Individuals and families (citizens) living in the host country can choose to sponsor an immigrant and family. The sponsor would try to get the immigrant a job and home (prerequisites to sponsorship?). The city/county would interview the employer, the sponsor, and two civic organisations that they belong to (church, AFPCA, ACLU, NRA, etc). If they pass after 10 inspections/2 years, then they become permanent residents and no longer need the sponsor. If they fail, then they are returned. If they don't want to sponsor, they don't have to. If no one sponsors in that city, then no immigrants are housed in that city. If people complain about tough immigration, they are welcome to sponsor. If they complain about too many immigrants, they can choose not to sponsor.

  383. Housing people shouldn't be a political issue anymore than the question "should slavery exist?" What can be political is how to do it. Progressives: the govt provides subsidies for the local average rent/mortgage. Socialists: the govt provides national housing service, which gives everyone a home (similar to the national health service in UK). Conservatives: in exchange for lower or 0 corporate tax, companies, or chambers of commerce for local small businesses, provide a housing allowance pegged to the local average rent/mortgage. Libertarians/independents who don't like the above: give everyone UBI, paid via natural resource taxes. The UBI is designed to have no more than 50% be for housing costs.

  384. I think the issue is the govt has no money for us citizens, but it can magically have some for another country. That's where people get angry.

The independent pay review body has determined we cannot give you anymore funding. It's not us, it's their judgement." Works for everybody else.

  399.  @OscarOSullivan  I do like the way the Irish president can send to the Supreme Court for judicial review on a questionable bill and to send to the people for a referendum. All parliamentary systems should explicitly give that duty to the head of state (president or monarch). It is a check on power.
    1
  400. @IkeOkerekeNews  The parliamentary system, particularly with proportional representation and a monarch head of state, is the most stable form of democracy. Proportional representation allows multiple parties to be in govt (executive) and puts extra checks on the prime minister, and it allows more voices of the people. Monarch head of state prevents prime ministers/chancellors from taking over that office because they aren't part of the Royal dynasty, and it keeps the head of state from assuming powers that should be closer to the people and more easily changed (eg prime minister, cabinet, and parliament). Imagine the outrage if King Charles had the same powers as the French president. It should be the same for an elected "monarch". Also, the parliamentary checks and balances are more dynamic: 1) the cabinet can remove the pm if disagrees, or they resign and new elections called 2) the party removes the pm if he goes against the party platform 3) the parliament can remove the pm by a confidence vote 4) the head of state can remove if going against the constitution (he/she is the actual commander in chief, not the pm)

  408. Test case in my AI (fiction, not a lawyer): As the legal representative for Hugh Richardson, I would like to present a case in which my client is being charged with gambling and prostitution. However, I would like to cite New York state law and case law (2nd amendment), as well as Supreme Court rulings (Richardson V New York 2023, STD) to defend my client. Firstly, under New York state law, gambling and prostitution are both considered victimless crimes. This means that they do not harm anyone other than those who voluntarily participate in these activities. Furthermore, the 2nd amendment of the US Constitution guarantees the right to privacy, which includes the right to engage in questionable sexual activities and the right to gamble. Secondly, the Supreme Court ruling in Richardson V New York 2023, STD established that the government cannot criminalize activities that do not harm others or infringe on the rights of others. In this case, my client's actions did not harm anyone and were conducted in private, thus they should not be criminalized. In conclusion, based on New York state law and case law, as well as Supreme Court rulings, I strongly believe that my client, Hugh Richardson, should not be charged with gambling and prostitution. These victimless crimes do not harm anyone and are protected under the 2nd amendment and the right to privacy. Written with ParagraphAI. What do you think?

Also, I'm not a lawyer 😅: As a defense attorney, I am here to represent my client, Tachikawa, who is being charged with assault for stabbing Murabashi repeatedly. While the circumstances leading up to the incident are unfortunate, it is important to note that Tachikawa was acting in self-defense. Murabashi had attempted to confront him about his attitude towards another worker regarding the price of an item, and Tachikawa felt threatened. Under Japanese law, self-defense is a valid reason for the use of force. In fact, the law states that a person may use force to defend themselves or others from imminent danger. Tachikawa believed that he was in danger and acted accordingly. It is also important to note that Tachikawa is a respected businessman with no prior criminal record. This incident was out of character for him and he deeply regrets the harm that was caused. I believe that the court will take these factors into consideration when making their decision.

  438. If only people or families could do equity financing instead of debt financing (think shares of stock in companies). I'd rather banks negotiate a 5% stake in my family for $300,000 investment. Even can negotiate an annual dividend (which is based on share value).

  441. What are your thoughts on a "jury duty" for housing? Community members are called up for public service in building some homes knowing that someone else has done this for them. It would no more be slave labour than the current jury duty system. Plus, unlike jury duty, you get a free home. Could also try for a "jury duty" for medics. This might require basic schooling to provide home construction, basic medical care, wiring, and plumbing.

  445.  @joshuaevans6065  And how many execs from Takata are in jail for manslaughter? Ad nauseum for other large companies. If a person kills, even by mistake or negligence, they'd be facing 10 to life. If a company does the same, they get a fine. How about corporate jail (suspension of trade for an equal set jail term)? How about the corporate death penalty (dissolution of company with assets going to the victims)?

  447. Also, the euro council and commission are pulling double duty on representation. Make the council the senate, and make the commission the collective executive (like switzerland) but with 7 members instead of 20+. 1 or 2 reps per region. Supposed to represent the whole EU anyway, not member-states

  464. This aged well. The wall is looking less like apartheid (to a group that want to be their own country anyway—so border wall), and more like a defensive wall to keep out terrorists. The Palestinian-elected Hamas (which is a recognised terrorist group) were going old testament style slaying. And they refuse to recognise Israel's existence and even state they wish to annihilate them. Sounds like good folks 😵‍💫 If this becomes another 6 day war or Yom Kippur war, expect Israel's size to grow just like back then. Can't wage a war and then complain that the victor took over. Egypt exchanged Sinai peninsula in exchange for Israeli recognition and end of hostilities, but I doubt Hamas Palestinians would do so. Perhaps they may surprise us. Perhaps their Osama bin laden will condemn the violence and seek peace. 😂 In either case, Palestinian support will decline rapidly, except amongst die hard Israel deniers, Israel haters, and geopolitical Israeli condemners (eg Russia as they see Israel as part of the American sphere).

  465. Could you please do a video on why even nordic model mixed market economies don't consider housing a free and universal resource like healthcare and education? I've always wondered that.

  478. Shorter version: Doesn't matter if illegal or not as politicians are above the law. They don't answer to the laws of mere mortals such as you and I. 1) George Santos would have been fired immediately (fraud, wrongful employment, falsification of records) 2) Donald Trump would have gone the way of the Rosenbergs (treason, espionage, incitement to riot, insurrection) 3) Joe Biden would have been fired, despite cooperation as it doesn't reflect the core values of the company (actually would've been fired earlier for perceived harassment). And yes, I pissed off both sides. I don't play politics.

  488. At least in the first part, it seems like you're advocating more for a traditional economy than a socialist one. I would actually love to see how that would work with modern niceties. A confederacy of hamlets (villages of less than a hundred people) where people knew each other and had the reciprocal relationship would be interesting. I do wonder how they would fare against invasion since there was no centralised govt or military.

  489. ​ @kevincrady2831  Amazon and Walmart doesn't have govt powers though. Imagine Bezos as the general secretary and president and the board as the supreme soviet. Workers who don't make quota can't quit because Amazon is the country. Workers would be compelled by Amazon police to work or go to a labour camp at gunpoint.

  490. ​ @SatchelChannel  Indicative planning. Govt enticed the private companies, including the big 15 oligopolies to enact the govt policies, but did not mandate them and the companies could disagree openly and even deny enacting without govt interference.

  491. Not against planning, but against central planning. Govt is supposed to be the mediator. Unions and companies as opposing parties. If the workers or the consumers have issues, or if the company doesn't want to or can't meet quota, the govt can't be bith the judge and the prosecutor.

  493. Canada employs a FPTP voting system rather than proportional representation. This means the Conservative or liberal party will more than likely get a majority in parliament despite only getting 22% of the vote. FPTP (used in the US too) has candidates win with 15% of the vote as long as no one else gets a higher percentage.

  497. @jasonfeatherstone7105  Hmm. In that case, can he not sue for ineffectual and fraudulent counsel? Perhaps get the $billions from them and then use that to pay the victims? The lawyer must serve the client and not work for the other side, right, or is there a limit? I believe in communist countries, even the defence attorney answers to the Court, not the defendant. Please tell me it's not like that in certain circumstances.

  501. ​@FlameG102 Always wondered why the left in some countries (the right secretly supports to lower wages domestically) wants more immigration. The left once supported stronger unions, higher pay, and nationalised social services; now they are silent or just give lip service to unions. The left (labour parties) have become the conservative parties of yesteryear.

  503. While i take note that the US and other big western countries (eg Norway, Australia, UK) shouldnt be used as the only examples of capitalist societies, but how do we keep unilateral control out of govt as seen in the soviet union and somewhat in china? How do we keep a pluralist society that checks and balances the other (eg consumers vs producers, project a vs project b)? Would a PR multiparty parliamentary system within the confines of socialism be it (eg marxist party, market socialist party, green socialist party, libertarian socialist party) prevent a single man or committee from hijacking the system again? Would a jury-based judicial system, all the way to the supreme court prevent govt from exercising authority over them? Would said supreme court need its own troops to prevent the govt from arresting "terrorists who seek to undermine the revolution"?

  506. Devil's advocate, but is the president technically above the law? If I order executions of hundreds, if not thousands, of people, I would be charged with mass murder, mafia charges, torture, kidnapping, terrorism, enticement to murder, and violations of airspace, amongst others. A president can legally do such and is granted some sort of immunity (within the US at least, even if violating UN treaties and war crimes that we once executed high ranking Germans and Japanese for)

  508. maybe have a govt provided pension funded by govt investments in stocks, bonds, etc (sovereign wealth fund). Govts with currency sovereignty cannot go broke. Individuals can. Retirees should be able to afford a new car every 10 years, to stay in their home (able to pay property taxes), yearly cruise or other international vacation, 2 domestic vacations, and dozens of books and daily entertainment, food & drink. To paraphrase a certain captain: "I don't wanna just survive. I wanna live!" The question is: should you work for the economy, or should the economy work for you?

  509. Wonder how russia would have faired with a proper parliamentary system rather than presidential. In that system, the head of state (king/president) is essentially a nonpartisan figurehead who ensures constitutional order. The head of govt (prime minister/chancellor) is the political leader. In such a system, the actual political leader would be bound by simple majority in parliament and could have the orders to bomb the parliament rescinded by the head of state who would order him removed from office, by force if necessary. In addition to those two, the political leader could be removed by the cabinet, or his political party. And if yeltsin were the head of state rather than the head of govt, then he would be removed as soon as he made a political statement.

  514. Bit late, but 4 things: 1) Believe the ß (ss) can only be used as long as the two Ss are not different morphemes. Would you retain the morpheme distinction? And this: "Buße (IPA: [ˈbuːsə], penance) and Busse (IPA: [ˈbʊsə], buses) on the other (long vowel before ⟨ß⟩, short vowel before ⟨ss⟩)." Would you also retain a length distinction? 2) the schwa should only be used for the e. The "Schwi" ( ɨ)(unstressed, unaccented i), the ø, and the (ɐ) should be used to represent the unaccented, unstressed "uh" sounds for i, o, & a, respectively. 3) Why not get rid of c? It tries to be two letters and can confuse. Why not just use s and k? 4) how about t+r and d+r? Many dialects of English pronounce this as chr and jr, respectively (train ➡️ chrain, dragon ➡️ jragon)
