I would advise any nation to mimic the global trends in subsidies, but be a little better by having less of them than average, and to apply tariffs against other nations to the extent those nations' markets are unfree. I agree that acting as if an upcoming economic player should completely abstain from protectionism is both unrealistic and hypocritical. We indeed built the West on free markets and protectionism; so be it. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

So, you do think the US Military should defend the border? What limits would you place on their actions? The troops down there aren't idle. They are preparing.

Then, the decline and ultimate end game of the USA turning into a 3rd world country is unavoidable. And voting in elections doesn't matter. Might as well stay home for the midterms. 2020? Why does it matter? (Putin paid me to say this, FYI). I don't want to go full redpill but essentially voting is comparable to going to church. You go to church to reinforce your belief in the Lord. You vote to reinforce your belief in Democracy and the entire system our society is based on. That's the true and only point of voting, because if people don't believe in the system, chaos ensues and everything falls apart. If you're naive, voting also gives you the illusion of power. But voters don't have any real power. It was even scientifically proven. https://www.cambridge.org/core/services/aop-cambridge-core/content/view/62327F513959D0A304D4893B382B992B/S1537592714001595a.pdf/testing_theories_of_american_politics_elites_interest_groups_and_average_citizens.pdf That study has been debunked many times. https://www.vox.com/2016/5/9/11502464/gilens-page-oligarchy-study Problem is voter have too much power and why all democracies will go broke.

" Preparing for what? To battle against a few hundred unarmed women and children? What a disgrace You are more than welcome to invite them all to come live under your roof, and pay for the ones that aren't employed. You are willing to do that aren't you? Do you lock your door at night? Do you run antivirus on your computer? Why do banks lock their money up? Surely everyone can be trusted.

Military defending the US border, instead of enforcing Zionist interests in the Middle East? As a progressive liberal, I'm very outraged!

With the elections coming soon on the 6th Nov 2018, my prediction is that President Donald Trump and the Republican Party will have sweeping victories on both the Senate and the House. Calling it now. XD 34pre98qua	Posted by stkmro on Nov 5, 2018, 7:35:07 AM Quote this Post
I predict House 225-210 and Senate 55-45 (technically, 55-43-2), both under Republican control. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero.

You can't get elected unless you promise more spending and low taxes so they all are mortgaging the future to be ruled by bankers like Greece. That debunk doesn't really convince me. If both the rich and the middle class get their way about half the time, that's not parity. By definition, the rich are a much smaller part of the population, but get their way as much or even slightly more tham the middle class, which is a much bigger part of the population. This kinda proves the point of the study. By the way, you Drumpf fans here should apologize to Diablo Immortal devs. Spoiler GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
