The USA is becoming like the USSR in the 1980s. We are seeing so many shortages of goods these days due to the pandemic, supply chain problems, and worker shortages.

@OVOD.net Before the 1960s, homosexuality was diagnosed as a mental illness in the West. Alan Turing, who was a famous mathematician was charged with homosexuality in the United Kingdom in 1954. He was chemically castrated, and he committed suicide shortly after. Even in the USA, homosexuality was diagnosed as a mental illness.

What makes you think Communism is liberal?

21 Rubles/month, and people made 400 Rubles/month. That isn't bad. For me, my rent in a one bedroom apartment in Los Angeles city is about $2850/month, and this isn't including utilities. Utilities cost $125 per month. The average wage in the USA is about $2500/month. My wage is about $5500/month before taxes. I am spending $2975/month for rent and utilities a month. That eats up 54.1% of my wage per month. In the USSR, people spent 5.25% to 7% of their income per month that is a lot less than what the average American pays for rent or their mortgage per month.

It was. It was also a crime in Maoist China, and Fidel Castro's Cuba.

@UshankaShow The trade off is like this. Today, we can buy cheap goods from overseas from places, like China, India, Pakistan, Vietnam, South America, etc. The costs of the stuff we need, like housing, medical care, education, child care, insurance, & various services have gone up a lot. It is a trade off. If you own your own home without any debt, you are probably doing good. If you have a mortgage, pay rent, or have other kinds of debt life isn't so rosy. In the USA, everything we need to survive has gone up a lot, and everything we want has dropped in price. Back in the 1970s to early 1990s, electronics and imported items were expensive. The cost of living was relatively low back then. We can have all the toys and trinkets, but people have a lot of difficulty paying their rent. This is the difference.

Communist nations don't let people out, like East Germany, North Korea, Cuba, and other communist countries during the Soviet period. All the information that enters the country is strictly controlled as is the case of mainland China. If you try to leave a communist country, they will get shot, or sent to a gulag if you get caught.

Kid told on his father to the Soviet state, and his father got sent to Siberia. LOL

LOL. This will be quite a surprise to the Democrats that the Communists didn't like gays. I saw a documentary about Fidel Castro, and he hated homosexuals as well. LOL

@UshankaShow Still, if you had two people in the USA earning a combined salary of $5000/month, it would still eat up 59% of that couples income living in the city I live in. Rents have gone up a lot in most major cities in the USA for over the past 10 to 12 years.

@halaheleu7013 If you live in fly by country, there aren't that many jobs or opportunities to make a living. This is why people leave Rust Belts states, and farming areas.

@MrAnonymousRandom If investment firms decide to put all their money into buying up real estate then that will push up the price of real estate. Since Wall Street has most of the money in the economy, the can buy up most of the real estate pushing the price up artificially. As a result, regular people suffer as a result. People who don't make enough get pushed out of the area, or they end up in the streets. This is why we are seeing a surge of homelessness in cities, like Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York City, and other cities. You are saying capitalism doesn't have problems? Capitalism and socialism both have problems. In the end, if the price of real estate rise at a level where it cannot keep up with wages then we have a big real estate bubble. We have a bubble in other parts of the economy, like the equities market inflated by artificially low interest rates for the past 11 years. When it does pop, like it did in 2008, these guys on Wall Street will get bailed out again, right? Because they have all the right connections in Washington DC. LOL This idea that capitalism is perfect is BS.

Youtube's algorithm is very imperfect.
2
@among-us-99999 Artificial intelligence, and algorithm is not as precise as people imagine it to be. One of the reasons why Youtube is free, because of the fact they don't use a lot of humans. Human labor is expensive compared to automated systems. A lot of the manufacturing is performed by machines, and automated systems today. The quality of those goods aren't as good as something that is handmade. This is why a handmade car brands, like a Ferrari, Rolls Royce, or other high end cars cost 6 figures. A Acura NSX which costs about $160k is made by craftsmen while a car, like the Acura TLX is mass produced in a factory using machines.

@Rich a lot of these communist countries turned into dictatorships. I guess, homosexuality being condemned and outlawed largely depended on the leaders of these communist countries. In some Communist countries, like Vietnam it wasn't outlawed.

@UshankaShow I am a software engineer, and most of these type of jobs are in California.

@UshankaShow People live where most of the jobs and opportunities are at. It was worse in San Fransisco, I made a lot more, but renting an apartment was 32% more than it was in Los Angeles. The cost of everything else was also very expensive in that city was as well. It isn't easy to uproot and move to another state unless you can setup a business or find a good job.

@munxcorp There is a reason why you have an influx of people in states like New York, and California. it is due to the size of the economy, and the opportunities that you have. It is just supply and demand. You will make more money living in New York City, but the cost of everything is inflated. It is all relative. If you live Idaho, the price of most things including real estate is cheap, but there isn't of opportunities. Most of the jobs there pay minimum wage, and not many developers are going to spend their time and effort there.

@among-us-99999 If videos aren't monetized, and people watch them Youtube loose money. It costs money to store videos on servers, it costs money to process videos before they are posted, it costs money to provide the bandwidth for people to watch those videos, etc. This is why Youtube stated on December 10th, 2019, they will start deleting Youtube accounts that aren't economically viable. Youtube is still in business, because they are subsidized by Google. In reality, Youtube is losing billions of dollars every year. On Dec 10th of this year, Youtube will probably delete thousands of accounts. They will determine if your channel is profitable to them or not, and if it isn't then they will delete it. A lot of Wall Street backed companies, like Uber, Lyft, Amazon, Youtube, etc are mostly living off of investor's money. They are being subsidized by investment money which is sold to the public in the form of stocks. That's it. Once the money starts to run dry, these stock prices will drop, and these companies will go under.

@among-us-99999 People were getting around the demonetization of politically charged channels by using Patreon and getting donations from other sources. People who were talking about controversial topics were getting demonetized since 2017. Controversial topics tend to get a lot of views, it doesn't make any sense for Youtube to not monetize these channels, because it is costing Youtube money. Youtube isn't interested in being a forum for political discussion, it is a forum for people to make money, and for Youtube to make money in the form of advertisements. I heard a lot of talk about these disgruntled people who said they could start their own platforms. Good luck with that, you will have to spend millions of dollars to get started. You need to investment in enterprise grade servers, the personal to maintain it, the bandwidth, the space for the servers and other equipment, the cost of electricity, a website, etc. All this costs a lot of $$$$$, so if this wasn't free. You would have to pay for it, the viewers would have to pay for it, like $20 to $30 per month. If Youtube cost money for people to watch, not many people would be watching it. It's as simple as that. Unless the content is really interesting, I will probably not pay $15 to $30 a month to be subscribed to one channel.

@CyrilViXP I peoples attitudes on homosexuality has changed a lot compared to the people who lived in the 1900s, 1920s, 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. About 100 years ago, most people were not as politically correct as they are now.

Government takes from us, so we take back from the government. LOL
