And that's a great example again of why elements of both parties are corrupt. It's corporate America, if not the case forever then it has at least been this way since big money started making its way into the political scene decades back. An unaccounted for $24 billion does not conclude that it...- h27272727

Socialism has always been seen as a scary word. What Mamdani believes in is Democratic Socialism. Essentially, taxing billionaires / millionaires more to fund public infrastructure, transport and the like. Taxing poor people less. Hardly radical. People don’t ever stop to consider just how BIG a...- h27272727

That article mentions it - but that is a long-term trend for China. “Producer prices have fallen for 29 consecutive months”. Demand globally has lowered currently relative to their supply for a host of reasons. If this is trying to link this to US tariffs alone, only 14.7% of chinas exports go...- h27272727

My last few posts have been on the lazy side, i'll try provide more examples / reasoning. One of the more curious MAGA catchphrases. Serious question, has there ever been a more sensitive, thin-skinned president or administration? Hegseth looks like he'll cry any time he is criticised or when a...- h27272727

Well if I can’t say a large portion of his base is uneducated then it leaves them in a worse position; gullible, racist, ignorant or a mixture of the three- h27272727

Republican administrations historically add more debt Trump and Biden only had 4 years and COVID did create a lot of disruption. That said, they were comparable, although Trump did consistently add debt despite following on from a stable 2nd Obama term. i.e Obama came into power after the...- h27272727

Absolutely, he is evasive and no doubt has the help of hardline figures across the country. I can imagine that there is a fair bit of internal resistance but we hear very little Funding Hamas (in their early days) really shows the extent he is willing to sow division- h27272727

You’re not wrong… us Australians can’t really do much. Our government can denounce it, sure, but they’ll probably just follow the US stance as usual. Even then, not much will change. For at least the past 20 years Netanyahu has held the keys. Indirectly, US has plenty of responsibility by...- h27272727

This post is a gateway to a topic that undeniably cannot be overviewed in one go. It also cannot be understood from just one person's opinion or perspective, but it does happen to be one I studied for two years. Regrettably, prior to this I used to be one of those people that would joke "just...- h27272727

Hi Brookie, maybe another day I’ll have a deeper look through some research papers and get back on this. I do think there will be an extent of truth to each of these points. However, my prediction is that (as history suggests) the current rhetoric will greatly exaggerate these points to justify...- h27272727

I believe hegseth wanted to rename it from “department of defence” to “department of war”. He is far too sensitive, inexperienced and opinionated to be in the position he is in. He’s like an angsty teen. The only thing he’s good at is creating a toxic relationship between media and the sponge...- h27272727

Yeah, for a long while there's been a very thin line between a political sponsor versus a political influence. I've kind of walked around tariffs / economic policy so far because i know that will get one last big rant out of me. So may as well just get it out of the way. Perhaps you have some...- h27272727

Yup. They’re very justified in feeling that way. The richest country on earth yet in many places it borders on third world. wealth divide, corporate $ in politics, police, gun issues...

You've touched on a good point. The strongest feature of democracy is the difference of ideas (i.e. criticism/opinion). Although there's a line. People only bother to start protesting when the people in power begin suppressing this. It started way back when with criticism being branded fake...- h27272727

What do you prefer? Fox News? Just to preface: I’ve only read a few of your posts so may be jumping the gun here. If that’s the case then this is more of a broad rant. I haven’t had an account here for some years, but stumbled on this thread and am pretty surprised to see a fair few posters...- h27272727
