One of America's largest companies set to be nationalized. "Manhattan Project."

I have no problems with the government having their hands in military-sensitive areas as well as critical needs products.
This makes perfect sense - and I am a conservative.
You rather it be a company like Blackwater doing this???
If so - you would be screaming about that!
:rolleyes:
So you're a socialist then. I mean, if we said what you just said, that's what you would be saying about us, right?

Suddenly Republicans understand the best way to run a country is most things are privatized but some things should never be privatized.
 
Do you think Trump could turn you gay? Because he has turned you pro states rights pro free market Republicans into big time federal government socialists.

One of Trump’s top economic advisers hinted at the federal government taking stakes in other U.S. companies after striking a deal with Intel.

Kevin Hassett told CNBC Trump is open to owning a share of businesses beyond the microchip sector. The comments suggesting a wider policy of nationalization are likely to alarm pro-free market Republicans.

I'm sure that at some point there'll be more transactions like this one, if not in this industry in other industries.”
Do I think your “question” is any more meaningful than your false claims?

No.
 
Do I think your “question” is any more meaningful than your false claims?

No.
Just for the record, you are no free market capitalist. You're a socialist. That's what you would say if we did what Trump did with Intel. That's because you are an incel.

I am not an unabridged free market capitalist. I never have been since I first started thinking these matters through.

But, of course, despite your baseless, ignorant and moronic claim, I am also NOT a socialist. Your nonsensical false dichotomies are transparent and very petty of you. But they sure lack any degree of truth value.

Further, I have some issues with what President Trump has done with Intel. I deny your implicit claim that it must necessarily be “socialist,” even while I admit it seems to be a step in that misbegotten direction.

And no. You might be an incel. But I’m not. Your claim is absolutely false as well as baseless. Your cheesedick hyperbole really just underscores that you never seem to think things through or very deeply.

Of course you are not a unabridged free market capitalist now that a Republican is president. That would be unrealistic. But you most certainly were when a Democrat was in the white house. This is what you right wingers do.

I'm only doing to you what you guys do to us. If we dared to try to even suggest doing what Trump is doing with Intel, you'd call us socialists. Even communists.

This is just another example of how you guys aren't intellectually honest when you discuss politics. And you're hypocrites. Just pointing those two things out.

You always say stupid shit without any basis in fact. You substitute your speculation for facts. And you’re still wrong.

A free market capitalist would never concede any proper role for government regulation. Yet I do.
That would be unrealistic. But you most certainly were when a Democrat was in the white house. This is what you right wingers do.
Nope. Not “most certainly” and not at all. Again, you just make shit up, you pretend your lies are facts and then jump to false conclusions. It’s what you do because you’re a fraud and a lightweight.
I'm only doing to you what you guys do to us. If we dared to try to even suggest doing what Trump is doing with Intel, you'd call us socialists. Even communists.
Some might. Whereas, if you were honest, you’d acknowledge that I have already conceded that it smacks of socialism to some degree. But I suppose you imagine that if you continue to just make up shit, you might be perceived as persuasive.

You’re not.
This is just another example of how you guys aren't intellectually honest when you discuss politics. And you're hypocrites. Just pointing those two things out.
No. You aren’t pointing anything out. You’re just spewing baseless unsupportable speculation because you have nothing factual to offer.

As usual. You remain a piss poor posting member here as long as that’s the way you go about these things.
 
Trump is turning out to be quite the fascist. Or is this communism?


Trump launches 'Manhattan Project' as one of America's largest companies set to be nationalized

The Trump administration has launched their own 'Manhattan Project,' as reports have suggested one of America's largest chipmakers could be partly nationalized.

Intel. Corp, one of the most capable semiconductor manufacturers in the US, has been in talks with the Trump administration as the US government is seeking a stake in the company.


'This feels like the Manhattan Project - or the run-up to World War II,' MIT AI computer scientist Dave Blundin said on a podcast with MIT engineer Peter Diamandis.

'It's every bit as important as the space race was, as the nuclear arms race was. Actually, it's more important.'

The consideration to nationalize the company, a move typically done in times of national urgency, comes as the US is looking to get ahead of China in the AI and tech arms race.
And he isn't stopping with intel according to his lacky Hassett in interview with CNBC.
 
Sillyboob being a silly boob

What about Rand Paul? Is he being a silly boob? Because if Kamala did what Trump did, suddenly you'd be seeing it my way. Let's face it. Trump turned you into a pro socialist Republican. It's okay. Bernie Sanders and I agree with you and Trump. We're socialists too.

  • Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., criticized the Trump administration’s decision to take a 10% stake in Intel.
  • “It’s always a mistake to say, ‘Well we have this one bad policy, all right, we’ll tolerate a little socialism,’” Rand told CNBC.
  • Intel announced last month that the U.S. government made an $8.9 billion investment in Intel common stock.
  • Trump has taken an increasingly heavy hand in the private sector, raising concern among conservative lawmakers like Paul, who have long opposed big government. In August, the Trump administration said the government would take 15% of certain Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices chip sales to China. The Pentagon bought a $400 million equity stake in rare earth miner MP Materials. It also took a “golden share” in U.S. Steel as part of a deal to allow Nippon Steel to buy the U.S. industrial giant.
  • Among the most vocal supporters in Congress of Trump’s Intel deal has been independent Sen. Bernie Sanders, the self-described democratic socialist from Vermont. Sanders, a longtime and vocal Trump critic, told news outlets last month that, “Taxpayers should not be providing billions of dollars in corporate welfare to large, profitable corporations like Intel without getting anything in return.”

WRONG! Intel is on the verge of becoming useless. Now, if it was NVIDIA, your thread would have some merit, but INTEL, lol.

Yes Paul is a silly boob

Just the latest right winger to be thrown under the bus for not toeing the line.

God forbid a Republican doesn't go along with your socialist policies.

Remember you guys said Trump was a Democrat back in the day? Guess what? He still is. And so are you, apparently. Socialist.

He’s a radical libertarian

To extreme for moderates

There is nothing socialist about this either

You show signs of not understanding basic govt 101
 
Yes Paul is a silly boob
And based on the policies you defend, you are a socialist. This is just another example of how Trump can get you "Republicans" to defend anything he does. If he did something that was communist, god damn it you'd defend and support it. If he turned up to be in the Epstein file, you'd still support him. If he did unconstititutional things or illegal things, you'd still support him. If he raised the price of everything, you'd support it.

Sounds like Germans who defended Hitler. First they defended his bad fiscal policies. Then they supported him invading other countries. Next thing you know they are defending him marching Jews/Mexicans into ovens/hot detention centers in the middle of the Florida swamps

Alligator Alcatraz’ Ordered to Shutdown: Florida’s Everglades Detention Center Faces Closure​


OMG, Trump's tariffs, illegal,

Sending troops into LA and next IL, illegal.

What policies do I defend that are socialist?

How is Trump converting grants under his Chip bill to Intel, to actually cash with taxpayers getting 10 percent return socialist?

BS. There's nothing "libertarian" about Trump. Even as the LP has slipped left, they're still a far cry from socialism.
FFS, Trump funds universities. This is the 2nd industry the government has taken at least partial ownership of.


You Trump supporters have more excuses than Carter had peanuts.
