This is imaginary China. In real China winners get picked by networks of ccp members, to profit from them. You might more accurately call it an incentive for success of enterprises, so that the networks can get their spoils. It's not t

Doing Capitalism better means preventing market failures and accepting more state intervention... which i suppose the trump / republican government is doing. Free market Capitalism is dead in the USA, winners are getting picked. Coal o

Buying gold and silver to get through the inevitable stock bubble pop is out of reach for normal people with normal wages and savings. Houses and stocks got cheaper per ounce of gold last 20 years. But in terms of dollars they got way more

That's why everyone sane is fleeing into gold and silver.

I certainly did; I'm also not trusting the `Less likely to be exploited` rating, but since updating is easy in most cases, why not?

Yes agreed, applying updates is very easy and pain free these days.

by BartjeD 1y ago
Interesting that they put it as 'Less likely to be exploited' but at the same time give it a 9.9 riskiness. It sort of implies it will be quikcly under active investigation by hostile actors, and then get's raised to an urgen

The company was warned multiple times prior to this happening, to adjust course. They didn't. Now they got into hot water and claim they were unjustly nationalized. They can have their day in an impartial court of law. If they're

That's the malthusian fallacy. The winners are the ones that maximize survival. Reproduction is what all the shills did anyway

This 'reasoning' explains why the predominent sentiment in Europe is now: 'Bye bye USA'. I think the party in the USA has ended. And I'm definitely not investing there again until there is some clarity about the nex

If Mexico bombed area 51 with bunker busters and stealth planes, it would be interpreted as a declaration of war. By anyone. The world over. If you're seriously saying this isn't war, bombing Iran, you're just engaging in wil

I appreciate your position, but I think it's mainly one in hindsight, 20/20 etc.. The reality is that the EU has had plans for strategic autonomy in case of necessity, for a longer time. But hasn't enacted them because the US

The point being that under your definition, a thermo nucleair device also isnt a declaration of war. Hence highlighting the completely schizofrenic bind this position entails. Because no one would consider a nuke anything other than a war,

Bombing another country is literally a declaration of war. With explosions. Isn't an act of congress required for this, in the US?

I sense we won't come to a consensus. It's not what the EU wants at all. That assumption is the root of your arguments, but it is wrong. The EU wasn't created to shaft America or anyone else. In fact, the reason so many US se

Ofcourse it is. The IT of the ICJ on MS 365 got shut off... After a truth social post. EU law means nothing when the employees are on the next plain to Washington. And when the funding and expertise and infrastructure is tightly controlled

The USA is a hostile environment to visit, for Europeans. It's a theme all over western and northern Europe to avoid it. If you were expecting European attendance, that would explain why it's different from the past. It's the

Christianity is also anti-violence. <insert-any-other-regilion-here> is ... I'm not sure how you can even qualify an idea or religion as violent or anti-violent, other than by the behavior of it's adherents. It's clear

I Admire your courage for sharing. The only thing you can do is convince people, I think. Most folks are trying to stay in their bubble.
