Maybe it will become a new right wing pitch for billion$ in more security spending.
Being vulnerable and spreading fear of it, is always a great profit center.
Anything can work because any country can and many do, pretend to be a democracy.
I think trump found out why previous pres. didn't meet with him. The N. Korean leadership always tries to get something for nothing.
When GWB talked via intermediaries after catching N. Korea red handed counterfeiting $150 million US, that should have been nailed into west about their treacherousness. It was not.
Since then however, we all know now, Little un is no different so far.
Although NK could yet turn out to be a very profitable threat and enemy.
Fear is always a good profit center.
Would somebody tell me, no excuses ?
Just when has the right (GOP) ever governed as the small govt. fiscally responsible party ?
Never in my lifetime.
The GOP is responsible for $14 trillion of our $22 trillion in debt (the rest being added cleaning up after the right) and have added 100s of 1000s to govt. payroll.
Next question.
Capitalism as practiced in America, will be the death of most poor people but not capitalism. Of course it will come from the essence of capitalism...debt.
America is so rich [she] needs to as we type, borrow $6 million per minute...we do not have.
The future of America has already begun, capitalist fascism.
Soylent Green anyone ? Ironic that capitalism will have humankind regress back to cannibalism.
Stop this people. I am always reminded at most blogs, do not ever underestimate the ignorance of the American people.
Our plutocrats in govt. have forced the taxpayers to throw trillion$ at the capitalist for 60 years. The govt. forces the socialization (taxpayers) to insure against bank risk, (FDIC) agric. risk, (FCIC) pension theft (PBGC) and overseas investment risk. (OPIC)
The whole ethanol market was created by socialism to the tune of billion$ every year to produce millions of gallons...the public doesn't need or want and is socialism for the rich.
The govt. forces taxpayers to provide price supports to dairy because dairy producers/investors bribe govt. feeling entitled to produce 3 times what the market demands.
Obviously that over-supply would deflate the price, so the govt. steps in and buys all it can using it for the military and often gives it away. The US taxpayers spends million$ per year just to warehouse govt. dairy products...we do not need.
This renders the whole argument about socialism only so much bullshit. The US yearly provides billion$ in socialism only the capitalist can love. Capitalism is for the poor.
As for socialism for the poor ? Fuck them, let them go to jail or just die.
There is no basis in fact to conclude the American pubic school system is broken.
[It] may be broke but that's because the capitalists who run America don't want to pay for it.
Just as the capitalists don't want to pay for anything. The capitalist doesn't want to pay taxes and doesn't want to pay you.
Slaves had jobs, didn't do therm much good.
In fact the American courts are outlandishly right wing and capitalist fascists.
Corps. are like people ?
Property (wealth) is free speech ?
You must sign away your right to sue and go to arbitration over a class action ?
Taxpayers must fund price supports for the capitalist, direct cash subsidies for the rich and pay billion$ each year for ethanol [it] does not want or need ?
Taxpayers much pay for insurance for bankers, farmers, pension thieves and overseas investors [sic] ?
What unmitigated bullshit.
There are 22 industries fully funded by govt.
Capitalism is neither free market or free enterprise.
Mao and Pol Pot were right wing fascists and murderers.
Only a extremely few tech cos. spend anything on R&D.
When small entrepreneurs create something, they are bought out.
Corp. America in fact invests more under the left than the right.
If mankind were left to the right, (capitalists) there would be about 7 billion slaves
but hey...a great profit center.
Neither, to them we are big a petri dish or a big petting zoo. But as long as you asked:
If they are peaceful, not out to exploit, conquer or enslave people...lefties.
If they are the opposite...righties.
Where do people get this stuff ?
I mean seriously, what does this have to do with anything ?
.....better they are born and under repubs will tell you then, to make a profit for yourself or somebody else otherwise go to jail or die.
I much admired Prof. of sociology Mortimer Adler. However, his one shortcoming after being a non- believer until his 50s, he got baptized.
It didn't change my mind and could understand how he decided on that leap of faith but not actually being baptized because we both knew...wouldn't make a difference..
Well in America is not interested. America just wants to know, how do we make some fucking money here ? The rest is conversation.
Can't do it. However, religion has for its entire history, been a profoundly useful instrument to entice the credulity of believers to vote for them because they too also believe in stone age fairy tales.
Can anyone point to any time in history any politician who has made it clear he is a non-believer, has...ever been elected ?
Yes, due process is a legal term coined and forever enshrined in the constitution. Or otherwise, one could get arrested and locked up at will by govt. police.
Due process is a search for truth and justice. Without [it], the masses are at the mercy of the govt.'s monopoly on violence.
Oh yea, pseudo science alright.
DNA research has never say prevented a 4th or more straight generation of one family's women from going blind...but it did.
DNA research has never gone into a community to cure a genetic defect causing disease so their offspring don't suffer any defect...but it did.
One reads these things and might have others believe they just walked out of the cave.
A great example of the deafness of some on the right. The so-called left has been telling the right for 40 years.
The right has ignored the message for those 40 years and more.
Well what we have learned as one would have a right to fully expect, the right loves Russian money, loves Russian fascist political power are autocrats and want to be just like them.
Repubs (GOP) would rather be Russian than American as they begin to work so well together, Hell, call up the NRA, I am sure they have a few Russian million$ for you.
These leaders as most, loe themselves first and need the prize attention. Kim is doing nothing that hasn't been done by prior N. Korean talks...promise to do as little as possible, lift sanctions or send food, then do nothing.
It is for that reason no pres. has actually met w N. Korean leadership unity now.
They both get the photo ops, the great adulation of their followers...and then go home.
Next question.
One could easily say look at how good capitalism is in N. Korea or China. See how easy it is ? Doesn't do much for the capitalist proletariat.
Just yet another post confirming how religion poisons everything.
I am supposed to care how fictional stone age characters felt about another fictional stone age character ? Why ?
Fortunately, the repubs are not empowered to prevent it. Should Reagan have received book deal ? He got $2 million just for a speech in Japan so.....?
Abortion is the law if the land just as owning a semi-automatic assault weapon.
How does that square with the righteous here ? Just against who or what do people in the US plan on assaulting ?
'so called "ethics" of a deed might go against morality. Yes, and it is called being unethical.
Ethics are a by-product of morality. If one is moral, they will be ethical.
Filling in but yes, I sure do. I miss now, even just a trustworthy govt.
Almost the entire world is corrupt with some of the more powerful using what power they can for advantage. The US and most of the west feel as did other societies for centuries...might makes right.
Yes, I grew up thinking that America was a successful exception to the corrupt world. [She] instead is under the control of elites who simply do not care for democracy and want monolithic power, use their power.
Yes...the world is doomed to a one world, capitalist fascism.
Look how fast both Russia and China have become just that.
First, the capitalist loves a profit and any prospective profit center having no other values especially moral values. Doesn't matter if it is a dictator, corrupt, takes bribes or even violently vicious. Just as long as there's money to be made.
The US is a state capitalist country. Notice the bailouts, subsidies, price supports and several govt.-run, single payer insurance programs added to countless billion$ in loan guarantees to corp. America.
China is the role model having gone to the next step from state capitalism to capitalist fascism.
This would be the worst possible function of public schools. Religion belongs at home or in church if at all and because...religion poisons everything.
We know, he a Repub. Repubs get away with all of the adultery, whoremongering and lies they want.
But when Clinton was forced to testify in a civil suit financed by the right, (6 years and $60 million) he was not fit to be pres.and the house being repub, voted for impeachment.
So, you are saying christians so fickle in the credulity of their faith, feel trump's sinning is not the same ? Just another example of not only how believers cherry pick their moral values but also for politically partisan reasons.
You are correct about the dems until after WWII. Then over dispute over the CRA and Brown v Bd. of Educ., those racists dems quit the party and most became repubs. Strom Thurmond became an independent actually thinking he could get elected POTUS.
With the repubs actually being capitalists first, saw a profit center in hiring cheap black labor and reserve the best jobs for whitey.
Once the repubs helped end chattel slavery they (circa 1860s 70s) became partners with British and European bankers first in destroying (ending) Lincoln's greenback, then enshrining the corporation to very successfully put all poor into debt slavery.
How is it people feel themselves so aware of what all of these terms mean yet constantly fail to see that socialism in the US is alive and well...for the rich.

Obviously that over-supply would deflate the price, so the govt. steps in and buys all it can using it for the military and often gives it away. The US taxpayers spends million$ per year just to store govt. dairy products.
This renders the whole argument about socialism only so much bullshit. The US yearly provides billion$ in socialism only the capitalist can love.
As for socialism for the poor ? Fuck them, let them go to jail or just die.
Rather capitalism is destroying the market by not paying its participants. Govt. creating dependencies ? That's a good one. Much more like the capitalist is creating those dependencies.
Reduce the markets buying power everyday means debt and the capitalist has very successfully driven the country into $71 trillion of debt going up $6 million per minute.
Rather, the govt has convinced people that laws of both marketplace and taxes should favor capital and the corp. to inspire growth...that never occurs.
People without capital which is by far most people...are not capitalists at all. Capitalism requires capital. As for choice, the US govt. has chosen to initiate forces of capital and govt. against the poor.
The capitalist is among the least self sufficient in economy, always with his hand out to govt.

Is he going to pay the $3 billion ? Fuck Booker amd Amazon.
How is it that corps. need not reflect the conservative philosophy of individual responsibility but it's oh for them to always have their hand out for corp. welfare ?
Do not waste your time. Everybody knows that life and the earth exist and people are here...for a profit. And to think, they tell us it was god. What bullshit hey ?
Please specify upon what the dems have been big spenders.
Let me see, did they pass two huge tax cuts to borrower trillion$ for 2 wars ? NO.
Did they legally prohibit neg. a discount for medicare party D drugs ? NO
Did they sign off on $1.3 trillion F-35 program that went to $1.9 trillion ? NO
Did they sign off on two $9 billion aircraft carriers for went to $13 billion each ? NO
Did they sign off on $12 billion in tariff relief for farmers ? NO
Just another bit of right wing propaganda that seems toi live on. Never mind that it is the dems that are the small govt. fiscal conservatives of the last 25 years.
It's a good thing that no fact or extrapolation of fact exists in science proving or even indicating any religious belief is the basis of intelligence and in fact, is...quite the opposite.
Ethnically, jews are semites as are arabs, brothers under the skin. So there must be equally intelligent muslims as such assessments are far too subjective.
Another debate posed on the basis of what somebody...wants to believe.
The interesting thing is what the right does in their in dissemination of data. The source says here's what we see as what we would and would like...you to believe.
Recipients and sources of data then agree that true, [it] is what we both want to believe, so we'll go about making our arguments based on those fake facts.
Then it creates a glaring hypocrisy when we hear things like "corrupt Hillary' because of course everybody just wanted to believe she was.
But then inexplicably voted in scum that they knew was corrupt and maybe the most corrupt in at least a century. Now the right is even trying carry trump's water for him or..or Mitch Mcconnell another piece of scum, is really POTUS
Because they see America as not that different than Mexico...requiring 3-6 jobs just to survive. The food is better and some...still Mexican.
It bothers me that.....
Trump is anywhere within 200 miles of DC or me.....
It bothers me that the morality of the right has shown itself what we should have known since Reagan...completely gone.
Speaks to the amazing credulity of the masses to ridiculously quote of all things, the bible, what is a stone age fairy tale...about economic and politics as it might relate to illiterate stone age peasants.
Trump is completely compromised by Putin, is a Russian asset and truly now a national security risk.
Capitalism is not only not free enterprise, it is not real enterprise at all. Capitalism is money-ism. Capitalism is speculation, debt and turning paper into money. Capitalism involves no labor, that is reserved for whoever the capitalist speculates on or...invests in.
Capitalism is hardly dead, it thrives on a total US debt of $71 trillion, going up $6 million a minute.
Capitalism has its firm grip on govt. with all of that 'capital'...being free speech.[sic]
Truly facing [it], crony, greedy capitalism won the 20st century and has most successfully in partnership with having successfully bought and owned govt. especially as exemplified by the latest of several tax giveaways...thrives in the 21st.
More accurately, [it] has remained un-ethical and unreasonable where greed rules everyday and has survived quite well, while humans do not exist and are...,merely profit centers.
