  13. I can't figure out my fellow Americans, are you too scared, or do you just not care? In 30 years, 10% of Americans will OWN ALL WEALTH. Today Donald Hump proposed rounding up homeless in California and putting them into internment camps costing over $700/day/per individual . . . paid for by the Federal Government. Fox News has been drumming up support for this policy idea all week. For the cost of this "internment" plan, all homeless could easily be housed without losing their freedom. More people are on their way to homelessness and it will include people that used to think it would never happen to them. The 1% in this country have $30 trillion in accumulated wealth they are not spending, at a mere 2% interest it would take all the GDP gains for 2018 plus an additional $40 billion to pay. Yet when I look at S&P500 index funds, they have been paying over 9% since 1994. Look at a more moderate 5% rate of return, that comes out to $1.5 trillion which eats all 2018's GDP gain plus 1/20th of the entire economy. Thom reported on the U.S. Treasury report in August 2019 which spelled out in detail that in 33 years, the top 10% will own ALL wealth in the USA. The bottom 90% are all going to end up in internment camps. So what is wrong with all of YOU, that whenever I bring this topic up of the wealthy eating our economy whole . . . I hear nothing but silence? Are you all too scared to react, to horrified to take serious action, or even to think about what must be done? Is fighting a racist agenda more important to you? These wealthy people don't care at all if you are white, black, brown, yellow or purple. They are distracting us on purpose with everything under the sun, do you simply not care that soon you and your children, your entire families will be homeless or worse . . . in internment camps?

  26. 867 5309 - My Lady is not ready, so I have time now to address your comment. You said that Fox tends to "take a much more fiscally conservative approach on domestic policy". I am not aware that this is the case. Can you cite examples? Fiscal conservatism serves well in households (I adhere to fiscal conservatism to run our household budget), also for local and state governments. However, fiscal conservatism serves little legitimate purpose with regards to the federal government and is not visionary at all (we need visionary in the federal government). Since the USA is the sole proprietor and manufacturer of the U.S. Dollar, the only usefulness for fiscal conservatism is keep an eye on available resources and make sure the manufacture of dollars does not amplify inflation. Meanwhile as per the Constitution, the federal government should concern itself with "the general Welfare" (note the capitalization of Welfare, as stated in the Constitution) of the entire citizenry of the USA and should never write policy into law that is so bent toward the Oligarchy that it creates distress among the population. What I am most concerned with is the federal domestic policy of today and the past four decades. The "hardcore Trotsky/Straussian communists" roots of present day neocons does not concern me, their present day actions concern me. The modern neocon seems to exclusively want to keep the military/industrial economy going for the benefit of those who gain their wealth from it. That is just sick, and since all of their wealth comes directly from the U.S. Treasury, I want to see neocons become extinct. Our military has been used almost exclusively for empire building since the end of World War Two and has directly caused the problems most on the far-right keep griping about. Codependent with the neocons are the wealth hoarding (so-called) conservatives of every stripe, that depend on on interventionism to prop up a collapsing capitalism. When capital has been hoarded to the extent that economic circulation of capital is asphyxiated . . . it seems the only solution policy makers come up with is the looting of additional resources to prop up capitalism (example, squeezing Venezuela). Now, back to California. How exactly is this state being systematically destroyed by democrats? There are many problems here, but republican governors and administrations have only made those problems worse, not better. Can you cite examples? What am I missing here?

  43. Terry Michaels - Your comment is absolute proof that you have not done any substantial research into socialism. If you had, t you would not be making such asinine and ignorant comments. How do you feel then about major corporations paying their employees well under a living wage, and then assisting their employees to sign up for food stamps and medicare . . . thus having the federal government subsidize the wages of their employees? The employer then pockets profit derived from the lower wage they pay. Meanwhile, the same corporations pay ZERO federal taxes, which is a giveaway . . . free money. How do you feel about that? Free money from the federal government to corporations is not socialism, because that money does not benefit society except for the bare handful of individuals who end up taking the money. Meanwhile the food stamps and medicare their employees are now enrolled in is socialism, except that it is punitive socialism that still places a burden on society for both the worker and the taxpayer. How do you feel about that? You see, if you had done any substantial research on socialism in the modern age, you would have found that unlike capitalism which is rigid, unchanging and always ends up extracting wealth from the people instead of generating wealth . . . socialism is adaptive. Modern socialism is not a top down government planning of everything like the right wing propaganda is always pushing. That fact alone proves that you are a poser and a liar. You never researched anything about socialism, you just listen to FOX FAKE NEWS propaganda. Get real. Do some actual research that proves you are not a mindless, thoughtless, ignorant idiot who believes propaganda . . . then we will talk.
