  1. That's what I'm preaching, thank you for your good elaboration.

  2. J River Perhaps we should learn a few things from China, that managed to lift 80% of their population out of poverty in just 40 years.

  3. I like that analogy, good observation.

  4.  @jessemiller6318  You are right, I did not expect to run into someone here, who has studied the subject deeper. Americans and wester Europeans usually react superficially, so I replied likewise. I apologize.

  5. Tim F Why can we no longer make it work, it had such a nice trickle down effect. It seems that this engine seized over 25 years ago.?

  11. stevemcgowen Your quote: """ young people without a lot of life experience think socialism and or communism are ideal """"""""""" Our education system does not create history geniuses, they are being programmed that greed is good. It's more about manufacturing consent for our woke, progressive, perfect democratic state, that reached the pinnacle of civilization.

  12. stevemcgowen Your quote: """" They seem to think they will get a free house or flat, paycheck, car, and everything else- free of charge """"""" is that not what our credit card advertisers promote, with "funny" promises ? Perhaps it explains that the average credit card debtors owe around $63 000.- not including mortgages.

  13. stevemcgowan Your quote : ""if only their nation gave up on capitalism. """""" Corporatism the perverted form of capitalism does not need intelligent citizens, it needs consumers that will bankrupt themselves, so they can be used as slaves. That's why we have private jails, to back this new system up, to not let offenders get away with anything. Have you heard about jailpay ?

  14. stevencgowen Your quote: """ The reality is these utopias they dream about never existed and never will...""""" I don't know, but if we don't use Philosophical skills, we might be added to the endangered species list.

  15. @Steven Strain Your Quote : Your quote: """ They did that by following a similar recipe for many nations before them which includes the United States """""" I'm not sure you could compare that with the the history of the USA. 1.) Geographical strategic position is different. 2.) A secure solid foundation is different. 3.) China could draw from 5000 years of history, US only from 250 years.

  16. @Steven Strain Your quote: """ China ever got into a situation where they had so many in poverty in the first place. """ China calls that period the 150 years of humiliation, it started with a Dynasty that rejected science, and the Opium war, opening the gates for European colonialism and ended with the victory against the Kuomintang in 1948

  17. @Steven Strain Your quote: """ Well in Germany they have their workers boards """"" It used to be that way, now they are marginalized relics. Not unlike our teamsters and unions here in North America.

  18. @Steven Strain Your quote: """" think that Germany is a failed state. """""" No, off course not, but we could get there, if we slavishly follow the example of the US, and follow their directives, perpetrated by the Atlantic Bridge. Our magic originates from our Universities and FREE education. This allows us a brought base to draw from, with graduates that to not have to shoulder student loans, and graduates from all walks of live. And off course they do not have to worry about healthcare. This takes a lot of lives stress away, and let you concentrate on creativity. You do not have to turn criminal if things go sideways. So we do not need so much jails.

  21. @Steven Strain Your quote: ```` And they take their constitution as seriously as we do.`````` Unfortunately, they do not: Constitution: ``NO war should ever again be conducted from German soil``. Violation: `' The US conducts Drone Warfare from Ramstein Base. ``

  22. @Steven Strain Your quote: ``` history is whatever they tell you it is.```` Tell me about it, here in Canada we live now in Justin land , a 3 day old dictatorship. If you do not agree on Trudeau`s narratives, his Minister Christia Freeland might freeze your credit cards and bank accounts.

  23. @Steven Strain My Grand Grand Uncle was stationed in Tsingtao, you know the excellent German Beer brewed in Tsingtao China, A new colony in China. Uncle Auto Broeker was member of a Machine Gun Battalion in the German Emperors new Colony. Auto`s battalion was tasked fighting the Boxer uprising. In the late 50`s I met him on his death bed in Versmold/Westfalia, he cried numerous nights out in pain from his nightmares, where he committed terrible war crimes in the name of the Kaiser, like machine gunning women and children suspected of Boxer sympathizers. As a kid I had no idea, of what it was all about, until his daughter tante Lene filled me in, many years later. The Chinese call this period `The 150 years of humiliation ``. They will not, and they should not forget it.

  24. @Steven Strain ```` Taiwan ```` They also call themselves National Republic of China. They have ambitions retake Main land China under the banner of the Kuomintang. Why is it our business to defend them, please explain ?

  28.  @Pridetoons  It's just a debate starter, I did not say, that it answers all our questions, but we have to start it with detail right ? So where do you want to start from ? And I believe you are wrong by Liberals loving the "school of life" series. They actually hate it and produced many videos to debunk their findings.

  34. Now, do we really, and what has our quantitative easing with FIAT money to do with Capitalism. I dare to say, very little ?

  35.  @UshankaShow  Yes, countries that back up their currency, without just might.

  37.  @davidmajer3652  Gold is just part of their back up portfolio. They also buy foreign currency, as reserves. They do not practice quantitative easing, no social welfare for the elites. They can weather any economic downturn more flexible than we could. Our system is the unsustainable one. Ask our rebel capitalist George Gammon, his tips are Golden.

  38. Yes, that might have happened, if Nixon would not have tipped the Sino Russian friendship. But that is what is happening now, Russia and China getting really cozy.

  41. Edwin Mintey Who says that we still have a capitalist economy ? And what do you think of dumping our subsidized food on the African continent, where we put local farmers out of business ? Perhaps we have not enough cheap labor in our countries ?
