RE: President Trump stops a war, permanently; with the stroke of a pen, and common interests!
that is very lucky of you... not everyone can achieve that especially with the US education fee...
but realize that some especially in US are not as lucky of not having to fear racial discrimination, live in poor neighborhoods where everyone around u is poor (due to after effects of segregation and slavery), are refused loans due to their color or loose a job or life since they get randomly arrested or shot at by overly aggressive police and are refused a bail (also more likely for white) that would allow them to continue work...
No luck involved, success is a matter of work. Education is dying in the USA. The cost is stunning, and education quality with liberals in control is very poor!
I have suffered racial discrimination my Entire life. I have been refused education loans, Jobs, and was forced to repay a "free" grant because of my race! I have clawed my way out in spite of constant racial discrimination; only to be called a Racist! The big difference is I refuse to allow them to make me a victim. I was forced to work full time, while I went to school full time, because I could not get loans due to my Race! My Daughter's school loans are higher than her house loan, due to her Race! She could get zero breaks either.
My ancestors came here as indentured servants (AKA Slaves), My great Grand Father fought with the Union (with Sherman) to free the slaves. NOW I am being told I should pay reparations...simply because of my race.
I have treated everyone, my entire life, as equals; and I will be damned before GOD himself, if I accept a second Class Citizenship because of my own race!
you have quite an interesting family history. was ur family part of the first indentured servants that worked for a fixed number of years before being free?
agree about education. people try to play it down saying "if you dont like communism then deal with this capitalism" but actually no in social democracy you have controlled capitalism not on tthe cost of the consumer... bernie sanders or warren would be possible candidates that might get that fixed...
there was somethin similar as reparations tax in germany (other than our actual world war reparations). when east and west joined, the western government took over the east and instantly brought the east german economy from protective to free market, with businesses being taken over by the west and massive unemployment suddenly. so they put an extra 7% tax on everyone to rebuild the east (and due to segregation you aswell have very poor neighborhoods)... and so people paid for many decades 7% extra tax.. the only thing they forgot to include tho in the law was something that was binding for the government to actually use that money to rebuild the east XDDD so actually very little was used to rebuild the east...
now they want to lower that tax and concentrate funding on economically underdeveloped sections of germany (mostly the east)
I like the idea that they put a tax to help poor parts of america, but they got to put the tax on everyone... there are many (perhaps 50) shades of black too (or colored)... if u do a DNA test maybe u have a shade of black aswell... so im not sure how they will do that law in the first place, but the only way i can imagine is everyone pays that tax and the public sector of poor neighborhoods get improved?
They had to work for 7 or 10 years (not sure which) to pay whatever they were in trouble for.
Socialism (AKA Communism) is 100% fatal. Read Atlas Shrugged....
I have bee hypertaxed my entire life, as punishment for working hard, only to have liberal policies destroy my chosen work. I have dozens of patents, yet I can't get a job in my chosen profession, because they destroyed the entire industry.
Reparations as they call it here, is a simple monthly check based on race. The other side of the coin, is that I am expected to write them a monthly check to pay for it, again because of my race! It is not intended to rebuild anything, only to buy votes, and to punish me for my skin color.
If you look up "The Great Society" we already did this under welfare, and it did not work.... We transferred Billions of dollars into the poor community, and NOTHING has changed there, in over half a century! Socialism has never worked, as the bottom line is that everything must be paid for, and socialism generates no surplus, by punishing those who produce.
My DNA tests are more boring than that, but My Wife shows a lot of American Indian blood (Navaho, she is a Beautiful Woman). The government is never a solution to anything, they destroy everything they touch. They also have killed more of their own citizens than war has in the last Century. The government is the disease, and Freedom is the cure.
i think some even chose to be indentured servants for a fixed periods cuz things were not gong too well in europe either....
social democracy is not socialism... to put it into perspective... socialism is whats happening in venezuela or cuba.... social democracy is whats happening in denmark norway or sweden... social democracy does provide free healthcare and education but is not socialism.... its regulated capitalism...
what i dont like about the US is the system is, it is so bad, and people try to fix it with another bad system... like it has a system that discriminates against black minorities, but to fix it they add more racism to do for example affirmative action in universities... you dont fix racism with racism... those laws would go against european laws as equality is big in europe... a tax for all and support for economically weak neighborhoods and free education and non of that affirmative action race tax crap... it would still mostly benefit minorities in america but without all that enforcing of racism... since a good system doesnt need to be racist to be fair...
The were sold from debtors prison was what I understood.
Socialism is like pregnancy, you can't be a little bit pregnant, not can you have a little socialism. It all leads to the same place, large taxes and large government. Since it is an axiom that government does a poor job handling money, the most expensive way to pay for any item is through the government.
If they do a stellar job, the program looses 25%, but most government programs are lucky to hit 50% waste. Cost over runs are so bad, they will not publish the economics! The eventual endpoint of socialism is communism, and that communism is what is in Venezuela and Cuba. EVERY socialist country is headed to a communist government, it is simply a matter of degree. Stalin Loved it when the people "voted"; because HE controlled the people that counted the votes. That way, he could never loose!
As taxes (legal theft) increase, investment and hard work decrease, because the more a person does, the less he makes. The people with a high level of money find it is more cost effective to take that money off shore than to invest in businesses. This is what happened when Obama was in office, and this is what drives the unemployment up. Income crashes, and tax collection falls; so they raise taxes more, and more investors leave.
We have thrown millions of dollars into depressed neighborhoods for half a century plus. It does NOT work! Until we can teach people that they are not victims, we can not fix this problem. People that are able bodied need to Work to pay their own way, or we all fail. I am tired of carrying several able bodied people who just don't want to work! That is the core of socialism, producers carrying those who refuse to produce.
europe has been pregnant for decades now has it? in a democratic system where there are always other options, social democracy cannot betray its values, while in a socialist system betraying those values is encouraged
if you pay few hundred dollars tax it will hurt you more than it hurts bill gates... thats why the rich need to be taxed accordingly to their income... high taxes allow healthcare and education to be paid... these are costs the weak cannot carry... the good healthcare system in europe also means less kids die and therefore less kids need to be born... as a result less young workers pay into the retirement fund and in europe people save money to retire early, as the current retirement age in germany is 67.... since everyone has access to education and does not need to slave away for the rest of their lifes to pay back student debt, the productiveness is higher... educated workers just do less mistakes and can get a higher range of things done... also you cannot avoid government projects, as who else is willing to pay for infrastructure and schools and police?
where did those millions of dollars go? there are still low opportunities of jobs and education, causing a high crime rate...
Europe is dying. They have to combine every country there to build an aircraft to compete with Boeing, which is a single company in one state here.
If you take 100% of the money from the "Rich" it will run the government for about 10 days. The rest has to be taken from us. The problem is spending money that our grandchildren will be forced to pay for.
Margaret Thatcher (Smart Lady)
I favor a Constitutional Amendment that require the government to spend only what they take in, except in times of war. That will curb the cancer that is socialism.
Your healthcare system relied on US technology until we entered into the same cancer of socialized medicine too, and that killed our medical R&D too. Now we must rely on Israel for new technology, because US Medical R&D was destroyed in 2008. I have been to the trade shows, your Medical Manufacturers make "me too" products, under license from here.
Israel the only country rejecting socialized medicine, and is still doing research. I still get job offers from over there, and yes, I am that good at Medical R&D.
Our education costs spiralled out of control when the liberals took over the Universities, and Obama nationalized the loans. Again liberal poison, and the cancer of socialism.
WE pay for our schools and infrastructure, as well as Police. The money from the "Feds" is collected in real estate taxes, and fuel taxes. They then act like we need to kiss their asses to get our own MONEY back! THEY are not the source of anything that have not taken from us to begin with! With their History of waste and graft, it would be a lot cheaper to cut out this specific middle man.
The liberals have set up a sustenance living intended to destroy the black family. They give them just enough to get by, in exchange for no Father present! Over 70% of black children grow up in a single Mother Family because liberals hate Minorities. This is planned to do exactly what it is doing, destruction of the Black Families; to control and kill them off.
