Can sound callous, but perhaps in your European exemplar righteousness you don't notice how condescending you might sound when you say: The liberty pe...
Seems like you read the first sentence and then started with your definitions. Sorry, but we do use the definition and the word "free market" / "free ...
That's the thing, you said it right there. I don't know if it is 25% to 75% ratio, but something along the lines it has to be. Hell, even Maw is perso...
Oh they are something just for people your age, Bitter. On the other hand, ships are the easiest places to be handled if there is an outbreak: just pa...
No. But you should, just for a while before assuming anything, just look at what for example Biden is saying on the same issues. And try to spot the d...
Nothing, but didn't you say yourself: With the Bernie option, workers getting a salary (and either choosing the job or not) isn't enough. I don't have...
Oh it does! Bernie has a long list on what he plans to meddle in the decisions of corporations. Just listen to Bernie: And now feel the Bern: You got ...
I agree with all those that they will pick a woman for the vice presidency. If Biden is too centrist, they might pick Warren to woo the left wing of t...
Now you've lost me. Central management is a way to coordinate a large network where people simply cannot all come to sit down on a table and have a co...
Please read the agenda. Who else will look that the goals are met than the central government? Who else would it be than apparatchniks of the workforc...
Uh..do what? I'm just telling that Bernie is a Social Democrat in all his heart. That all above is social democracy. Because Americans have never actu...
What effects? You think that market going down is a source of trouble? Perhaps you should read what you write yourself. Climate change? How wouldn't t...
You should start with his campaign pages and really read through all of his agenda thoroughly at: Bernie Sanders on the issues There's just 34 issues ...
Yes, this is the crucial thing here. What is actually possible? The big-pharma and medical lobby hasn't just power because it gives money to politicia...
Your counterargument doesn't make the point, because I've made the distinction quite clear between social democrats and true marxist-leninists and I'v...
One thing you should remember. The US has also done well. That it has avoided the ugly side of socialism has it's positive side too. Don't think that ...
It quite clear when you think who they picked to be their candidate last time. The political party is run by weak geriatrics, who don't want to take a...
Mainstream political thinking here is obvious. As I've said in the other thread dedicated to this, when you have even just the potential of a truly de...
The more you know, the more you also know how complicated things are. Using the Scientific Method and the scientific guidelines makes one very cautiou...
Joe Biden. Will he continue the list of the following Democrats? https://static.timesofisrael.com/www/uploads/2016/06/DEM-2016-Clinton_Horo-4.jpg http...
I think we are all now familiar with this train-wreck of a disaster President Trumpov. Wonder how Democrats will feel then in 2024. Or more likely sai...
All I can say to that is that with the present system, you pay far, far more in health care costs, than anybody else in the whole World and have a tru...
Well, you are talking to people on a Philosophy Forum, so I think a lot of people are familiar with the juxtaposition "what is interesting" / "what is...
It's far more about what people percieve than actual factual statistics, especially when crime is truly rare. What is a better neighborhood? Especiall...
That doesn't tell why they would be better neighborhoods. Or that with lower income you would automatically have worse neighborhoods. This isn't so st...
He fears that tearing down Biden (or running as third candidate) will simply get Trump re-elected. That's the lack of cojones. I think we have reached...
Actually China would have less problems than now it is facing if it didn't have the one-child policy back in the day. One disasterous policy I would s...
Yeah, those government employees don't make it to the leftist list of nice things that the state gives. Anyway, the existence of armed forces and how ...
I'm starting to think this way myself. I'm even starting to think that all the silly wokeness is a way to crush the left luring it away from the impor...
The real issue is if the ways to get out of povetry diminish or grow. In our meritocratic World education is the important way for upward social mobil...
It's quite simple. They know that the more polarized the US is, the better for them. At least Bernie gets the point totally clearly: See article Berni...
You do know that you are here praising the virtues of the government as an employer, the role of the public sector. And this is a very American thing:...
Bernie's weakest point is his most fundamentalist supporters. Actually thanks to Trump, Americans can believe that they can make a change to their par...
You do understand that with this kind of spending you are in the elite when viewed globally? 4 Holidays a year is worth 17-20% of your your income? Wh...
I don't think that you understand the question. The question isn't not just about audits, tax payer money being poorly handled or somebody stealing th...
Perhaps. There are totally reasonable things there, but the leftist rhetoric and attitudes hide them. Yet one has to understand what the GND is about....
What is lacking here is the question how much would you pay for things like just to take on example, a working police and judicial system? Or put it a...
Thanks for the insight. If I may, let's go threw them with some brief comments: What on Earth is Green in this one? Even for citizen of a Nordic welfa...
This is a good constructive comment, with which I agree with, Benkei. And I actually do blame the system: the fixed duopoly landscape doesn't create t...
Who's actually promoting unlimited 3rd world immigration now? Where are your "globalist leaders" preaching that anymore, I just ask. Things can change...
Firstly, Ebola is far more deadlier. Fatality rate is about 50%. It was the thing, before the West African Ebola outbreak of 2013-2016, that many viro...
What government aims for massively growing population I'd ask? The last example was Ceausescu's Romania, and not only did that policy fail, but that d...
A bit off the topic, but I'll try to answer. The answer is no. Firstly, the simple and historically quite proven fact is that with growing prosperity ...
And this is of course the reason for there to be the media frenzy. The real question is how probable the possibility of a pandemic is. For example, yo...
I would add a quantity precisely defined to every other quantity (with that we exclude the problem of quantity defined being a "heap" of something, fo...
Like population growth is the basic and natural reason for economic growth? And that decrease in the size of the economy (zero or negative growth) mea...
Well, the coronavirus is more of a media pandemic than any kind of actual cataclysmic event. Until the next media fear gets into high gear I suppose. ...
