Putin: USA is "Parasite" on Global Economy

[ekrem]

Putin is former CheKa. He really isn't into the whole concept of human freedom.

What has Mr. Putin's stance on "human freedom" anything to do with Mr.Putin's observation of US economy?

Would be new to me that the USA gives a **** about "human freedom" outside the USA.

Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, Afganistan, etc.

I was in Nam and knew of none of them that I killed threatening America.
Did we even have any vietnamese acts of terrorism in america during that timeframe?

Vietnam was the work of Democrat heroes LBJ and JFK.

Korea? are you out of your ******* mind? You know the ChiComs started it, right?

Wow. Just ******* wow

The situation in Vietnam began right after WWII. It involved alot more that the two presidents you cited.

 

[ekrem]

Hello? Putin has been ripping on the US for like a decade now. It would be news if he said something unapologetically positive about America. And no, he's not a Marxist.

And hopefully he'll return in 2012 as President.

 

[ekrem]

The 3 big Credit Rating agencies (all in USA) are just a buffer protecting Americans from reality.
Enjoy it while it lasts.

Did I say anything about which US political party started it. Just that we had killed lots around the world.
but some cannot see past political parties I suppose.

I dont believe USC was referring to "parties"...he was referrig to US foreign policy in general.

But...I dont agree with him as it pertains to the crap he spewed. Actually, I was quite insulted....

As well you should be, because the crap he spewed was outrageous.

 

[blastoff]

Coming from Putin this means nothing.
The world has benefited from America for decades in almost every way imaginable.
All Putin is doing is once again throwing in the comment that the dollar shouldn't be the global currency...at best all he is doing is jerking himself off.

Yeah, but this administration's got a circle doing it.

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin accused the United States Monday of living beyond its means "like a parasite" on the global economy and said dollar dominance was a threat to the financial markets.

"They are living beyond their means and shifting a part of the weight of their problems to the world economy," Putin told the pro-Kremlin youth group Nashi while touring its lakeside summer camp some five hours drive north of Moscow.

While Russia is not yet a capitalistic society they are fast moving away from socialism/fascism towards a market economy.

While the US is fast moving towards socialism.

Wrong. For the most part Russia won't allow heavy private control of any natural resources. This includes energy, mining, timber etc. Chile somewhat follows the Russian model (to a point). So does Hugo ( to excess) .

Your resources belong to corporations paying chump change to rent/steal and getting subsidized. It should be done on a percentage of actual profit and go into the coffers of the nation formerly known as the US of A.

You are living under pure fascism and aren't even smart enough to understand the meaning.

 

[Douger]

That disappeared quick.

I bet Putin didn't complain about America when his people where in bread lines in the 80's and America was sending Billions in foreign aid and food to help Russia feed it's people, who where the parasites then?

 

[B. Kidd]

He is not too far from the truth

Americans are weak and lazy. They want all these programs and they don't want to pay for them.

Cut my taxes....and give me __________

It is unfortunate that you confuse the American people ("weak and lazy") with elected leaders. Americans are strong and industrious, and will be again with the right leadership.
Americans are waiting to be led. We are also a patient people, but when patience runs out, then the strong and industrious will take things in hand.

This coming from an American ex-patriate who would be tied to a banana tree and shot IF the American economy ever leads the rest of the world into a worldwide depression. They still identify you as an American down there, so, you should be cheering for a comeback by the United States.
Your measley ass life might depend on it!

Exactly what was "outrageous" in his post? USC has more room to talk since he was actually there.

And, BTW, the first Americans to die in Vietnam happened while Eisenhower was POTUS.

HUH?

Did I not say that Russia is NOT A CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY?

Yep the world should be grateful that we have killed so many of them.

DaGoose...

being in Nam does not excuse what he said (above).

I found it to be cold, callous, and inaccurate.

He had the right to say it and I had the right to criticize his thought process.

I guess I need to know who "them" are. If he was talking about communists there was once a time when killing communists was a good thing. Especially when they were trying to kill our troops.
