  1.  @whyYoustalking  so you sold out real NYers for illegal alien cheaplabor scabs for the elite. Good job!

  2.  @whyYoustalking  you are supportive of your "sanctuary state" status that forces you to reduce services for NYers to pay for the oligarchs illegal serfs. That makes you a sellout.

  5.  @raymondnoodels7775  the western countries that are doing the best these days were in the former soviet block because they managed to avoid the rages of capitalism that have destroyed family, community and tradition in the west. And now capitalist countries are commiting national suicide by replacing their citizens with foreigners to appease their consumerist gods. Get out of here with this capitalism worship.

  6.  @hollygraham102  they've gone through some real trials with the way Bernie was treated by the establishment press but I don't think it has caused any serious introspection for most of them.

  10. Referencing Carlin is about as intellectually stimulating as a fart in an elevator.

  11.  @Atheist7  i think George Carlin is the modern American midwits favorite philosopher and that's a problem. I also don't think Carlin was a comedian because he wasn't funny. Guys like Mencken and Twain were talking about the sham of American democracy before Carlin was born and they did it without Carlin's self loathing nihilism.

  12.  @Atheist7  would be great if there were no late night shows. All this media produces is shallow, atheistic teenage rebels like yourself. Let me know when you've become a part of a real counter culture.

  13. You said it buddy. Someone will run it? Who do you want that someone to be? Also shows a real lack of awareness for a libertarian to criticize someone for doing nothing but complaining.

  14.  @jessefontenot9846  what do corporations do well that make you want them to be in charge of healthcare? I don't want this gov't to be in charge of anything. They are illegitimate. I want my gov't that serves my interests to be in charge of healthcare.

  15.  @jessefontenot9846 you replace the leadership and the incentives. How are the corporations who have outsourced everything to China (with gov't complicity) serving your interests. They aren't. You right about the fakse dichotomy. There is a third way. It's called fascism

  16.  @jessefontenot9846  Trump is in no way fascist that's the problem. A long paragraph that concedes the failure of allowing corporations to run things for the benefit of the investor class. FYI- this is just fear mongering. A t-shirt was cheaper in the 50s as was almost everything and it was produced in the good old US. Do you know why that is?
    1
  17.  @jessefontenot9846  I'm not saying it isn't cheaper I'm saying the difference hasn't been passed onto the consumer in cheaper products it has been siphoned away by wallstreet. You don't benefit at all. Taxes were much higher on the wealthy and corporations in the 50s. And goods were produced here and they were cheaper. Why do you think that is? You really could shorten your posts they boil down to big gubment bad freemarket good. Hardly revelatory.

  18.  @jessefontenot9846  previous comment "comparing to the 50s is hilarious we have 9000 pgs of tax law now." This comment "but they had all kinds of loopholes and tax dodges back then." Okay. The more you talk the less sense you make. Here is the difference. Prior to the the 60s we had a gov't that largely functioned in the best interests of the average American. We no longer do. Why is that?
    1
  19.  @jessefontenot9846  sure. This is why gov't intervention at certain critical pressure points reduces much gov't intervention overall. Strong trade and immigration restrictions as well as legalized morality lessen the need for gov't involvement in wage, price controls and welfare. You need a big government in some areas to have a small gov't elsewhere.

  20.  @jessefontenot9846  any immigration prioritizes the profits of capitalists over a nations own citizens. We have no need for immigration of any kind and any immigration is detrimental. If falling birthrates are a problem there are ways to increase a nations birthrates. Replacing your citizens with foreigners can never be the solution. Local gov'ts can't control immigration or levy tariffs that is why you need the feds to do it. That was a typo I meant legalized morality or legal moralism.
    1
  21.  @jessefontenot9846  why is someone who doesn't agree with big gov't arguing for immigration to fund big gov't? Capitalism destroys family, community and tradition and now every capitalist country is replacing their own population with foreigners to feed their consumerist gods. Worst ideology ever. The glorification of capitalism needs to stop.

  22.  @jessefontenot9846  oh and not all laws are based on morality. I don't think you think that your tax laws are based in morality. I'm talking about sodomy, infidelity, promiscuity.

  23.  @jessefontenot9846  your strawman isn't based in reality. And claiming "reality dictates it" isn't an argument. You are the one advocating against big gov't but for mass immigration to support big gov't. Square that circle. Capitalism isn't just people selling stuff it's a political system that places the financial market above all else. And it has been an abject failure for the people in capitalist countries. America wasn't truly capitalist until the 60s before that we were a nationalistic country with a protectionist and restrictionist govt that placed the wellbeing of "ourselves and our posterity" before the market. This capitalist system has been sucking that system dry ever since it was abandoned. As with many libertarians you vision is fogged by a lack of historical understanding.

  24.  @jessefontenot9846  "ostracized from society" and we see the results. Birthrate decline, increase in prison population, breakdown of the family. But hey the markets have gone up, who cares, right?

  25.  @jessefontenot9846  current year. You seem to be stuck in 1986. When America was riding high on the looting of the economic and cultural base created during a nationalist system of governance. We are now coasting on the fumes and relying on increased gov't and financial shenanigans to remain afloat.
    1
  26.  @jessefontenot9846  and you retreat from a staunch defense of the capitalist system to tactical nihilism. "All systems suck and it's the people not the system." You've gone from your motte to your bailey. Odds are I'm younger than you, I'm 26. Does the moral rot have a cultural as well as political aspect, of course. Part of this is due to the repealing of moral laws that banned pornography, degeneracy, marriage bar (barred married women from working) among others. But these laws were antithetical to capitalism because they had no bearing on market efficiency. Which is the ultimate and only purpose of capitalism. I started out indoctrinated in liberalism as most people in America are, had a very brief flirtation with conservatism, and then libertarianism and now I'm a fascist. Fascism places folk above all else and is the only rational basis for any just political system. Ok, you make libertarian arguments but you aren't a libertarian. That's fine labels aren't that important. I'll not use that term to describe you anymore.

  27.  @jessefontenot9846  ask yourself if these immigrants the Europeans are taking in are net tax payers or net tax consumers? As in America they are net tax consumers. Meaning they consume more tax revenue than they pay in. So clearly their purpose isn't to pay for gov't services. Their purpose is to undermine the working class. To reduce wages, disrupt solidarity and erode community to make them more easily exploited by capitalists.

  28.  @jessefontenot9846  so you keep repeating that I am incapable of independent thought and first assumed that was because I am old and now imply it's because I'm not old. These aren't arguments they are excuses for a lack of an argument. First of all you are implying that laws are only changed after the opinion of the masses has changed but almost every change in the law was made through the courts not by a democratic vote. And many changes remain unpopular decades later. Culture is largely manufactured by corporate media. And enforced by apparatchiks in corporate media who name and shame people who refuse to accept their cultural dictates. Every time gay marriage was voted on the people voted against it but it was legalized anyway through the courts. Many women have been led to believe that the role of traditional motherhood is slavery but being a wage slave in a corporate office is freedom. This attitude and a general antenatal attitude is heavily promoted in corporate media because it benefits corporations and capitalism. Greater restrictions could and should be placed on these corporate entities because they are harmful to society.

  29.  @jessefontenot9846  you claim the west needs immigrants to pay for peoples pensions. I point out that immigrants cost money and don't pay for anything, instead of addressing this you say, boogeyman. Doesn't seem like you are thinking at all. Not surprising, many such cases. You are back to defending capitalism but it hasn't improved the lot anyone. It may provide people with the means to purchase a doodad. But man can't live on bread alone. Their is a psycho spiritual aspect to the human condition that is more important than material wealth. Wealthy people are often afflicted with neurosis that don't affect the poor. This is the great failing of capitalism. It is a wholly materialistic ideology that regards people as economic units whose purpose is to make and consume stuff and sacrifices everything to than aim but that isn't what life is about.

  30.  @jessefontenot9846  you are way to meandering. Are you using talk to text? Try to be concise. I make an assertion explain my reasoning and provide evidence. This is called making an argument. Gay marraige was one example another that you have brought up is abortion. Look, it's called propaganda, manufacturing consent, gaslighting, in a nation this big a universal deviation of norms isn't what is happening. It's a top down realignment of cultural norms done through corporate media and the courts. "Oppression" is a liberal bugaboo that works like this. Do we (corporate elite) agree with it? Then it's not oppression.

  31.  @jessefontenot9846  here is what you can do. Instead of two paragraphs attacking me personally. Explain why you think most of these culture shifting laws were passed democratically and provide an example. That is making an argument.
    1
  32.  @jessefontenot9846  that last paragraph, jeez. Someone is gping to dictate what cultural norms are acceptable and appropriate. The question we need to ask is do we want those people to be corporations often hostile and with their own completely selfish agenda and backed by well paid lawyers. or do we want to apply our own cultural standards? The problem many people have is that they think any culture or economy can be "natural" they are all created and controlled. There is no such thing as a free market. There is only the question of who controls the market.

  33.  @jessefontenot9846  so long. Maybe this convo will lead you to reconsider your world view. I realize new ideas can be scary at first. Good luck.

  36. Hospitals are closing because of so many immigrants not paying hospital bills not hedge fund operators.
    1
  37.  @mrfuzztone  we can blame the hedge fund guys for things for which they are responsible. They are the ones who support mass immigration for one thing. But take a look at where most of these hospital closings are occuring and why. Unpaid medical bills. But don't bother learning anything just blame the hedgefund guys for everything, much easier.
    1
  38.  @mrfuzztone  not everything you read in a book is true. What does this have to do with hedgefunds? Why might a hospital in an impoverished community that has seen a population drop since 2000 close?

  39.  @mrfuzztone  the book is about how the extremely wealthy have many advantages that the average American doesn't, right? Hardly revelator.

  41.  @VArsovski10  you don't know what fascism is. When Mussolini was talking about corporatism it was in the original meaning of corporatism Corporatism is a political ideology which advocates the organization of society by corporate groups, such as agricultural, labour, military, scientific, or guild associations on the basis of their common interests. The term is derived from the Latin corpus, or "human body". Fascism was antithetical to both communism and capitalism which is why they teamed up to defeat it. And we have been decaying ever since.

  57. Slowly the left is seeing the kind of world that progressives create in places like NYC and Cali. A rich oligarchy and a large mass of impoverished serfs, if they don't speak English, even better. Not that the oligarchs on the right want anything any different.
