Will America Go Communist?

[Andylusion]

Quantitative easing is private industry literally walking into our (read-tax dollars) treasury, and walking off with whatever they wish

why? , because we have a failing economy, failing fiat system

Do you believe it's true a government that issues its own money can pay for goods and service and financial assets without collecting money in the form of taxes OR DEBT ISSUANCE in advance of such purchases?

Modern Monetary Theory - Wikipedia

Dumb.

Nope. Quantitative easing is where the government creates money out of thin air.

>>>>

governments do not create money; the central bank does. ... It can issue bonds and ask the central bank to buy them. The central bank then pays the government with money it creates, and the government in turn uses that money to finance the deficit. This process is called debt monetization.


~S~

The Fed is an arm of the government, moron.

Well, except it isn't. It is a privately owned entity

it’s part of the government, moron. The only reason for the privately owned moniker is so they avoid audit. The Fed chairman is even appointed by the president. Duh

That's not accurate.

It's the exact truth.

Hmm, afraid not.

I'm afraid so.

Yeah, but you don't know what you are talking about.

I sure as hell do.

The reason for the "privately owned" moniker is the fact that the Constitution doesn't authorize the government to print money. It was a way for the government to ignore the Constitution.

America will never go communist.

.....or socialist for that matter. The President said so. best President ever!

Don't ask Bernie.
Ask Trotsky or Trump.
From 1934:

"Introduction from Fourth International

"The campaign against Marxist ideas sponsored by the capitalist witchhunters today aims to implant the false impression that Communism is completely alien to American life and opposed to the welfare of the American people.

"In the Thirties, during the rapid spread of anti-capitalist feelings following the Great Depression, there was considerable popular interest in the prospects of a Communist America.

"On this account the editors of Liberty Magazine turned to Leon Trotsky for a bird’s-eye view of what the Communist future holds for the United States..."

"'At present most Americans regard communism solely in the light of the experience of the Soviet Union.

"'They fear lest Sovietism in America would produce the same material result as it has brought for the culturally backward peoples of the Soviet Union...."

"Actually American soviets will be as different from the Russian soviets as the United States of President Roosevelt differs from the Russian Empire of Czar Nicholas II.

"Yet communism can come in America only through revolution, just as independence and democracy came in America.

"The American temperament is energetic and violent, and it will insist on breaking a good many dishes and upsetting a good many apple carts before communism is firmly established.

"Americans are enthusiasts and sportsmen before they are specialists and statesmen, and it would be contrary to the American tradition to make a major change without choosing sides and cracking heads."

Will Trump upset the capitalists' apple carts?

How many heads will crack before next November?

Greece
Cuba
Venezuela
France to some extent
North Korea

Pretty much every country that has openly moved toward your system.

Such an idiotic response on every level. Those countries were not ruined by the things I mentioned. Nor could you make an argument that they were, which is why you didn't even try.

Second, your last part reinforced the stupidity of the response, as literally every developed, modern country on earth in existence has those things I mentioned.

Stupid on parade....

Yes, actually, they were. Providing free stuff for all was the excused used to impose these governments on their populations.

That's the problem, he isn't and neither are you.I'm willing to point you in the right direction but I can't make you learn.
If you like I can recommend a good book on it.

Are These Trump Supporters Wearing 'Racist Bitch' T-Shirts?

You only proved that you don't have the slightest idea what capitalism is

Capitalism is imperialism, parasitism, and decay; what else would you expect from markets that allocate scarce goods and resources based on the ability to pay?

While Bernie cannot win it does give a sign the nation is strong and healthy. It's peace of mind.

Why Bernie Sanders’s Message and Media Machine Could Be Potent Against Trump

"Everything about Sanders—his ideas, his stubborn dogma, his sometimes-kooky supporters, his contempt for greenroom culture and the party circuit—is completely foreign to the intellectual and cultural fabric of Washington.

"In that universe, the claim that Sanders is unelectable is more or less gospel.

"The same Democrats who were assured of Hillary Clinton’s victory are now starting to worry about a Goldwater or McGovern-style Electoral College wipeout with Sanders atop the ticket.

"If they were so inclined, the bed-wetters could easily Google a year of polls showing Sanders beating Trump in hypothetical head-to-head matchups.

"A Texas Lyceum poll just this week showed Sanders performing better against Trump in Texas than any Democrat, losing by just three points.

"That’s on top of a raft of polls showing Sanders beating Trump back those precious Upper Midwest states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania."
