JC Political Thread - For All Things Political Part 2

I have no doubt they are on the brink of collapse, but the reason's behind that are a completely different story/debate. It isn't because of the "evils of capitalism".

A couple of things that come instantly to mind;

It is because the US have been borrowing money off China for the past 3 decades to buy goods from China. They have very little industry left.

Trump has spent the last 2 years plus undermining the trust that underpins a capitalist democracy.

Here we go the Orange Man is Bad.

What would you do if a economy shltstorm is about to hit? Secure the hatches and ford the storm. Everybody does the same, small scale or bigger scale. Is all the same.

I understand that reading must be hard for you. But nothing easy is worth doing.

The reading is easy .... its the ignorant nonsense that's hard ... i may as well be debating with that former treasurer joe something or other ...

I'm quite happy to believe it. I've never subscribed to any conspiracy theories and I'm too bloody old to start now.

Ah so conspiracy theory is just a euphemism for old age ...

Small, I'd stick around. Medium, I'd consider moving to another country. Armageddon, I'd drive hard until the tank was empty and then drink myself to death on the side of the road.

A "Conspiracy Theory" is a derrogatory term for someone that is a free thinker or seek for knowledge outside the box. Granted, some are way off, but not all. Is up to the person to dig and crosscheck the info.

Funny thing is that everybody conspire (for good or bad), same as lying. However, the word conspire is loaded with negative terms.

Thinking the Gov is all high and mighty and never do wrong is lunacy.

In the USA we are in a major crisis, let us call it 2 sides called Nationalist Vs Globalists fighting behind the scenes. Trump is a Nationalist (so seems to be), the opponents are the Globalists Socialists. A nasty power struggle between Patriots Vs Traitors.

id say trump would agree on point one hence why hes doing what hes doing to reverse the trend and get some manufacturing jobs back in the u.s.short term pain for the long term gain unlike a career pollie who only thinks 3 years ahead.point 2 its the democrats and leftists undermining trust in trump and the government by endlessly accusing him of anything and everything under the sun because they cant accept the they lost the election. what number unsuccessful impeachment attempt are we up to now ive lost count.not a single thing has stuck and likely wont no matter how much time they waste throwing mud in hope it sticks.

Trump seems to appeal to middle america ... the trilateral commission and CFR hate him he must be doing something right ...
