** 13-Sep-2019 World View: Food and real estate

(This refers to a discussion of suicide in another thread:
http://gdxforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php ... 657#p47657)

I agree that almost no one starves to death in America, but there's a
very big difference between being able to pay for groceries versus
eating in a soup kitchen. Food and real estate are two sides of the
same coin. Similarly, there's a very big difference between being
able to pay the rent for your own apartment versus living in a
homeless shelter. In another country, where people are living in mud
huts, perhaps real estate isn't a big problem, but people might still
be starving. The core problem, as in the 1930s, is that there's less
and less money in the world, which means that more people around the
world can't afford groceries, rent, medicines, etc., which leads to an
increase in suicide.

China just acts human. Almost all superpowers push their own agendas over other nations.
If mongooses evolved intelligence and tools, they'd do the same.
Heck, they'd probably blow up the world in a week.

Both China and Russia are pursuing their perceived interests just as one expects them to do. The problem is that the USA is currently being forbidden from doing so regarding advancing it's interests. A ban that has been put in place by our supposedly wise boomer overlords and one which has zero support from most of the American people.

** 13-Sep-2019 World View: The Mrs. Greenspan show on MS-NBC

I watched the "Mrs. Greenspan Reports" show on MS-NBC at noon ET
today. They played some Donald Trump video where he said that "I'm
easy to work for, because I make all the decisions."

They then spent ten minutes of air time with several correspondents
analyzing this statement and explaining why it means that Trump is
incompetent, has limited mental capacity, and is a danger to the
entire world.

I can't stop laughing at these kinds of things. Trump's statement,
which obviously was a joke, resulted in a ten minute segment of
MS-NBC's idiotic paroxysm of hysterical outrage. Last week was
similar when he joked that he was "the chosen one" to make the hard
decisions. Trump keeps playing the mainstream media like a fiddle,
and they never learn.

Every child learns that if you don't play nice, then no one will want
to play with you. Every child learns that if you act like a juvenile
deliquent, then you'll be treated as a juvenile delinquent. That's
what it means to "act human." A country that "pushes its own agenda"
by means of violent, criminal activities will be treated as a violent
criminal. That's why the CCP is treated as a violent criminal
organization.

Bernie Sanders calls Trump "The most dangerous man in America." The truth is that Sanders is that man. Sanders says he is a Libertarian, but he is Communist. America's Communists cannot say such things for obvious reasons. His demeanor is that of the mad scientist, fixated on socialist dreams whatever the cost.

As a side note, I'll wager that Soros, another Communist, is discreetly helping to fund Team Sanders.

** 14-Sep-2019 Jeremy Corbyn vs Boris Johnson

Last week, while the BBC was covering bits of the Commons live, Jeremy
Corbyn accused Boris Johnson of being a puppet of Donald Trump.
Johnson's response was that his allies are in Washington and Brussels,
while Corbyn's allies are in Moscow, Beijing and Caracas. The
expression on Corbyn's face was one of fury.

As for George Soros, recall that he's had an epiphany regarding China:

** 27-Jan-19 World View -- George Soros speech at Davos marks
significant global shift against China
** http://www.generationaldynamics.com/pg/ ... tm#e190127

It's not known whether Soros's epiphany extends any farther than
China.
