The New Appeal Of Communism

[Uncensored2008]

That wasn't the definition. That was propaganda.

At best, flat out lies in reality.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Commie? Are you still living in the 60's?

Communism has plenty of problems, enough that all communist efforts have died of their own shortcomings. But income inequality was not invented by communists.

But income inequality has killed libertarian economy, and have generated serious analysis by serious economists for decades. Maybe just too deep for you.

Dude, your ideas on government and economics come from the 1860's.

Hardly, me poor ignorant con tool. My ideas come from truth and study of that truth. You would, therefor, not understand. Because you could care less about truth, as the small minded tool that you are. Does ignorance hurt, me boy?

Pure babble. There's no such thing as "predatory lending." Anyone who gets a mortgage is a debtor. Governments are bankrupting themselves. No one forces them to spend more than they take in. What the hell does "privatizing natural resources" have to do with anything?

You just spew your Marxist catch phrases and hope someone is fooled.

Why conflate the reality of Predatory Lending with Communism?
One has ZERO to do with the other.

"Predatory lending" is a myth invented by lefties so they could blame the bankers for the 2008 debacle. How do you "prey" on someone by loaning them money? The bankers were the main ones who got screwed by these transactions, not the borrowers.

Uh, no...Remember Crosslands Bank? Look it up. Just one example.
You see, way before the Internet and Smart Devices, Predatory Lending was a way of life for some Bankers.
In terms of the Housing Bubble, Loans were being approved on paper for Fees and Commissions, not necessarily Predatory Lending.

So a bank went belly up. Yeah, that never happened before. What is this "predatory lending" that it supposedly engaged in? Is that where they lost money on their loans and had to declare bankruptcy?

Nope...it's where they gave mortgages and foreclosed on the mortgagees within 4-6 months.
You are living in a parallel universe.

Why would a bank foreclose on a mortgage unless the mortgagee was not paying?

Why would a bank give a janitor a 200K mortgage?
It was covered by 60 Minutes about 10 years and Crosslands was found guilty.

They did that because the federal government pressured banks into giving mortgages to people who couldn't pay them.

I see that you've devolved to pure ad hominems. There's no point in continuing the discussion if that's the case.

No blue Lining for these Jumbo mortgages.

In theory, Communism died when the Berlin Wall fell, after Reagan defeated the Soviet Union. America took a sharp turn to the left in 2008 with the failures of the Bush administration leading many to question the free market as a viable engine of growth and prosperity. Even so, few would openly speak of, much less advocate for Communism as defined by Marx.

The seminal work of Marx is "Capital," which was published in two volumes, with a third cobbled together after his death. "Capital" is far more influential than the "Communist Manifesto" in terms of explaining the "why and how" of Communism.

But Marx published his work in 1867, under the title "Das Kapital, Kritik der politischen Ökonomie." What could this have to do with America, 150 years later? The answer is French Communist Thomas Piketty, who has adopted the same name for a modernized version of the Marxist screed. Piketty is not some fringe, but has occupied the #1 spot of the New York Times best seller list for 5 weeks. Communism is extremely popular.

Given the history of Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Ho, Pol Pot, Kim, et al, how could people become enamored by Marxism? Promotion by the popular media and leftist culture, for one thing. Piketty has over 400 pages of statistics in his manifesto, I assure you that George Clooney and Cindy Crawford are not reading this, BUT it is an expected accoutrement at the elitist parties and events that Hollywood royalty attend.

What does the reemergence of Communism as high fashion mean for the world? We will all find out.

Grow up, idiot.

They did that because the federal government pressured banks into giving mortgages to people who couldn't pay them.

and they created Fan/Fred to buy the mortgages so there would be no risk to the banks and they created the Fed to always print money so housing prices would never go down and thus there would be no risk even if the homeowner could not pay and the bank had to foreclose.!

And now we get to it, you seek to strip from commoners the ability to own property. Property rights are the basis of all rights, so you seek to place humanity in slavery to the ruling elite.

I seek to stop ruling elites from amassing huge fortunes from revenue and profit-generating activities which add no value. When parasites like Morgan or Rockefeller create massive generational fortunes by indebting an economy to itself at an exponential rate, the resulting polarization of political power enslaves the majority of productive workers to a tiny oligarchy of parasitic scum and their useful idiots.
