Can There Be Too Much Capitalism?

1954, in the miserable and totalitarian USSR, Soviet scientists created the world's first installation for controlled thermonuclear fusion and reached a plasma temperature of 10 million degrees

1958, Belgium, in advanced and civilized Europe, there were still human zoos.

Luckily for the Bolsheviks, FDR provided them with the technology and the materials.

1. Major George Racey Jordan was in charge of seeing to it that requisitioned materials be sent on to the Soviet Union. He was known as the 'expediter.' As such, he was, nearly, the only witness to Harry Hopkins's treason on behalf of Moscow.

a. "..he [ Jordan] was instructed by the White House and State Department to deliver parts for the atomic bomb to the Soviets – at the same time the nation was worried about Russia stealing A-bomb secrets. At first, Congress did not believe him, but his diary filled with dates, shipping manifestos, and names of pilots who flew the missions,..." Major George Jordan

2. Because the truth was noncontroversial until Jordan testified to Hopkins's involvement, in fact, large segments of the Roosevelt administration, in shipping atomic secrets and atomic materials to the Soviet Union as part of the plot code-named "Enormous."

a. " Soviet scientists evened the balance of terror thanks to an enormous shortcut delivered by espionage agents engaged in Operation ENORMOUS-the complete Soviet penetration of The Manhattan Project." KGB Investigative Assets: Insights

4. In Jordan's book is a near-complete list of Soviet Lend-Lease material

a. According to Jordan, shipments to the USSR via Lend-Lease continued until 1949. Victory in Europe Day—known as V-E Day or VE Day—was the public holiday celebrated on 8 May 1945 (in Commonwealth countries, 7 May 1945) to mark the date when the World War II Allies formally accepted the unconditional surrender of the armed forces of Nazi Germany

Do you know why there is no american "lend-lease" in modern Ukraine? Because everyone already knows that this money will be stolen. The advantages of Stalinist socialism - money and funds were for the benefit of the country and the people.
In addition, the myth that all the scientific and economic achievements of the USSR were made only thanks to American "help" is also one of the anti-Soviet propaganda myths.
Who "helped" the USSR to be the first in the exploration of outer space, where science was at the most advanced level? FDR too?

The "confrontation" between business and government exists only for the ambitions of a small shopkeeper.
In fact, business IS power - first over the worker, then over the market, the consumer, the media, the law and the State. This is what the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie "invented by Marx" looks like.

October 4, 1957, 64 years ago today (12 years after the War, which claimed almost 30 million, mostly able-bodied citizens) is the day of the beginning of the Space Age of mankind - the USSR launched the first artificial satellite of the Earth.. and a year before that, the USSR took All pensioners to the state budget and increased their pensions.
Such was the cunning of the communists...

Why do rich people advise the poor to read books by financial coaches and other info crooks?
Because they - the rich - NEVER acknowledge the fact that they got rich either by accident or illegally ("I am ready to account for any day in my life, but don't ask me how I made my first million."(c) H.Ford).
Therefore, they inspire themselves and others that they are SPECIAL. The next stage is blood and genes, superhuman and subhuman.
When capitalism begins to show its true predatory, dictatorial mug, its infantile adherents begin to shudder in a fit, squeal and lament that this is not capitalism at all, but some kind of socialism!
No, idiots, this is the apotheosis of capitalism - fascism!

The Soviet Union practiced the most pure form of capitalism in the world. One were demand set the price without any regulation. You could buy anything, if you had the money.

It was called, "the black market."

College physics professors would quit their college teaching jobs to go work at toilet paper factories. They would steal toilet paper from work to sell it on the black market.

We simply need better laws. Junk bonds, not junk laws!

The Soviet Union practiced the most pure form of capitalism in the world. One were demand set the price without any regulation.

With the ban on private ownership of the means of production, it was still socialism. Under socialism, commodity-money relations and money are preserved, that is, some shortcomings remain from capitalism.
But the main disadvantages of capitalism are missing.

I propose, first and foremost, to pass laws against violent crimes. How has no one thought of this before?

You are talking about what has happened to our poor country under Reagan tax rates of giveaway to the rich. The worst inequality and upward mobility ever anywhere is no coincidence. Brainwashed functional moron. The final solution is fair capitalism with a good safety net like they have and every other modern country. We are the richest country in the world and we screw over everyone but the rich. You are the chump of the greedy idiot brainwashing GOP mega rich.

So when Obama kept the Bush tax cuts was he screwing everyone over but the rich? Yes, Obama had a super majority Democrat Congress, and he kept the Bush tax rates.

Why isn’t Pelosi/Chucky/Xiden pushing to raise taxes?

Could it be that Dems just complain about low taxes when Republicans are in power?

It’s like you idiots want Republicans to raise taxes because you know they are so unpopular, then you can also blame them for the economic fallout from it. When you Dems are in power, you’re too afraid to raise taxes.

5 stages of accepting capitalism

1. Denial - Lol! The problem is corruption, not capitalism.
2. Anger - It's the state's fault! Corruption due to bureaucracy, with a Free market this would not have happened
3. Bargain - What we need is not this kind of capitalism, but a Freer market one.
4. Depression - Why is corruption everywhere? Capitalism should work...
5. Acceptance - Capitalism is a monstrous system, that includes corruption and crime as indispensable elements.

Americans about anti-communist propaganda and the solution of the housing problem under capitalism.

"New California law will require major retailers to establish gender neutral departments for certain toys and childcare items."

But this, of course, is never a main road for the development of capitalism, no way!

...where are the right-wing's better solutions at lower cost?

The left already has a solution to simple poverty and our homeless problem; equal protection of the law for unemployment compensation in our at-will employment States.

It is not a political issue but an economic issue.

Hitler? And what? The most important thing for dealers is that their private property is not touched. What difference does it make that it's fascism

 

[danielpalos]

...yes.

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

"Korean Samsung refused to provide the US with confidential information about its logistics and sales, rejecting the ultimatum"
The curse of capitalism is that joint efforts are required to solve planetary problems, but the dealers and their political lackeys only rake in for themselves.
