ive talked about cognitive dissonance here before maybe being the thing that causes all these schizo like responses from BC members who on one hand support freedom and democracy and on the other support capitalism.

the clinton and trump supporters here remind me of that when they try and justify the most insane "news" about their candidate

i guess the other thing is people dont know the definition of economic tyranny like they dont know the definition of terrorism; we only have associations of the terms sold to us by our governments and dominant capitalists:

I think you're right. Need to go take a dump

Are you sure he’s not right because you emphatically proclaimed Michael Flynn is innocent (even Fox News conceded that notion to be absurd), that Trump’s policies would lead to four percent annual GDP growth (you’ve seen the peak under Trump - please acknowledge that I correctly predicted this when you’re forced to accept the truth), and that Trump created a new stock market paradigm when he slashed the corporate tax rate?

You obviously don't watch FOX because they say the FBI interrogators felt he told the truth. That their initial report was squelched and a new one was produced months later. As for the Trump economy, you're dancing on it's grave a bit prematurely. You may well be right but it certainly is too soon to tell. But for certain he's had GDP results above what Obama produced in 8 years. So the jury is still out. But I'm sure you'll let me know his progress.

When your boss tells you that they think of the workplace like a family, you should remember that they think of you as the children, and children should always obey their parents and be happy with whatever allowance they get.

in star wars sebulba plays dirty to win.

if modern day capitalists think jesus is gonna let them into heaven with their abusing of their workers, playing dirty, and an excuse of "being competitive", they are sadly mistaken. not to mention there is likely no literal heaven.

Luckily daddy gave me enough allowance this year to put an offer on another property.

The laws introduced in 1930’s to end Wall St. abuses (that led to crash/Depression) have, since 1980’s, been repealed or circumvented. Another 80% drop possible. Protect yourself with #Bitcoin, Gold and Silver.

It the current U.S. stock market at the same point the U.S. stock market was in Jun 1930. If so we are have another 80% decline ahead of us. Not to scare anyone -- just saying.

so i paid to see the dick cheney movie yesterday, which i highly recommend although its very dark.

what was interesting is the movie theatre has largely automated ticket sales. there was only 2 or 3 workers selling tickets whereas there used to be maybe triple that.

Automation, lack of jobs, but don't build a wall.
