The World has lost Respect for the United States under Trump.

Yes, they will bring back high productivity jobs to the U.S., expanding our own tax base and eventually that means lower taxes across the board. We fully understand your abject horror at that outcome.

You really need to get better informed on things before you open your mouth to make a fool out of yourself.

The long-term outcome of lowering taxes is uncertain, but it can have negative effects on the economy:

• Budget deficits
  If tax cuts aren't financed by spending cuts, they can increase the federal budget deficit. This can lead to higher interest rates and reduced national saving, which can hurt economic growth.
  
  
• Crowding out private investment
  Government borrowing to finance deficits can reduce the amount of capital available for private investment. This can reduce future productive capacity and the amount of future income that goes to US residents.
  
  
• Limited impact on saving and labor supply
  Tax cuts may encourage people to work and save, but the impact is likely to be small. This is because the increase in after-tax returns is small, and saving and labor supply aren't very sensitive to tax rates.

whatever you say. We will soon find out if it is BS (likely) or actual strength. Trump did not have the guts to go into the military, so we will his capacity to stop others (like Russia) from continuing to invade.

This presidency will show reality and throw away the BS. Trump has committed himself. Lets see if he has the ability/competence to deliver.

It's amazing to me that you don't understand that being a wimp doesn't work. I guess that's why you're a Democrat.

So in your world, taxing people more stimulates the economy? The economy should be driven by the people, not the government. Taking more money away from the people and giving it to the government to spend is not a good long-term strategy.

Under Biden:

Ukraine war has cost Russia up to $211 billion, Pentagon says​

In addition, over 315,000 Russians have died
They have lost over 2000 important (key to Russia's benefit) citizens that left Russia because of the war.

This means that your "fail" meme is not real.

Nonetheless, Trump has stated that in 24 hours, he will end the war. We will see if his words are real or BS

It would have never started if Trump would have been reelected. You failed to see that point.

/—-/ Lowering taxes increases revenue to the treasury. It’s been proven over and over. But, democRATs prefer to play the soak the rich card.

The war may not have started only if Trump had left NATO and left Ukraine defenseless. One thing FOR SURE, under Trump, Ukraine would now be under Russian control. Do you support freedom or do you support tyrants taking freedom away from those they can?

Your claim is ridiculous and without foundation.

i guarantee it's better than a "meritocracy" which is in reality no better than your average BRICS range of economic classes.
and our monopoly by law on violence given to police, excluding emergency self-defense, our absence of guns among the average citizens, is something that'll probably keep me incarnating on this side of the Atlantic..
unless i actually, from my life long hobby of martial arts training, am stupid enough to opt for a military incarnation with options to run for US senator, governor, or president.

5 minutes or so later :
eh, our form of capitalism is heavier taxed (as per topic discussed) than in the US, with quite possibly less tax loopholes except for major industries (that need to keep prices down for consumers), but our power generation is still 100% reliable for instance.

and this puzzle brings in a lot of other variables, that i'll have to consider at a later time.

Do I need to once again show you data and statistics?

During this perod of time (1940-1960), the rich were paying high taxes and the economy had its best year ever in 1940 and in 1950 and 1960, the years were as good as before and as good as any since.

  What we learned from Reagan’s tax cuts​

Hahaha you deviants really think your opinions of us matter. Your attempt at parroting some stuff you read somewhere on a propaganda site is really sad. Those of us who read the business press regularly know it was working in Trump's first term, and the recent embarrassment of dozens of CEO's lining up to suck Red Chinese dick in the hopes they moderate their clamp down on American companies operations in Red China is encouraging a lot more corporations to return to the U.S. Drug company stocks are getting hammered as a direct result of Trump winning; they are going to have to bring production back to the states and that is going to be expensive in the short term. They allowed Red China to be the source for some 97% of their drug production, leaving our country open to mass poisonings and sudden shortages; we have maybe a month's supply on hand here domestically of key antibiotics. This is because of stupid people like you cheering on such off-shoring.

Crime in the Netherlands - Statistics & Facts​

Choose a region:

Netherlands
The Dutch police force registered over 797,700 crimes in the year 2022, which is a significant increase in comparison to the previous year , though not necessarily in line with the decrease of the number of crimes recorded annually. The incarceration rate of Dutch citizens had been increasing from 2016 up until 2020, before dropping in 2021 to the point where 53.9 out of every 100,000 inhabitants of the Netherlands were incarcerated. There is, however, not much trust in the police in the Netherlands, as just over half of the Dutch population said they have trust in the police force.

deceptive.
crimes in my country (other than the despicable attack on Jews about 2 or 3 days ago right here in my hometown of Amsterdam, Netherlands) are definitely less intense on average than what you see happening on mass media news in the US.

Eliminate certain demographics from U.S. stats and the predominately white areas are as safe or safer than a lot of Europe. What you see 'on average' in the news is not even remotely 'average' in most of the U.S.

 

[luiza]

Getting back to the Topic .
Yes , on the basis of this Thread, the world has lost respect for Americans .

A group of people who roam the world bullying people , starting wars, but always losing them, and living more and more impoverished lives .

Strange the question was raised
The answer seems self evident .

 

[DudleySmith]

More like the U.S. reduced its handouts and bribes and the children are sniveling about it. Half of them would either be basket cases or wouldn't be countries at all if the U.S. didn't keep them secure and bought their crap for decades.

do you care only about the wellbeing of white folks?
that's biased in and of itself.

lol says the Euro who is hoping to conflate all Americans with a small minority, then has the cognitive dissonance to snivel about 'racist bias', i.e. making a racist claim yourself.

Why does it bother you that white Americans aren't any more violent than parts of Europe? You feel guilty about something?

One thing that you need to realize is that I am a person who lives, breathes, and makes decisions based on data, statistics, and facts. I have done that all my life and it has served me well. As such, I am NEVER led or convinced by emotions and fantasy worlds.

Evidently you are the opposite of me and that is fine if it works for you. I wish you the best but one thing I have learned in my life (the hard way) is that fantasy and opinion will cause much damage and following (and understanding) the reality of things will bring benefits.

I still remember that in 1980 I was fantasyzing about getting rich in the market. For the previous 3 years, my clients had all gotten rich (for example, one client invested $25,00o in 1977 and by the end of 1979, he had made $1.5 million in profits. During that same period of time, the company I was working for did not allow me to invest (I was a salesman and had no permission to put my own money in).

When I left and went to another company, I could invest myself, and given that my clients had made all that money in the 3 years before, I thought I would also make that kind of money. Instead and because things changed (the Fed raised interest rates 2% at one time), the $175,000 I had put into the market went "poof". At that time, I had no evaluating-of-the-data-statistics-or-facts experience but I was 100% convinced that I would make money doing the same as I had done for my clients the previous 3 years. I was proven wrong and it was PAINFUL and changed my life for several years until I was "taught" how the evaluate the data, statistics, and facts. When I learned how to do that everything from then on worked well.

Simply speaking, I will not listen to your (or anyone else's) ideas. I evaluate everything MYSELF and come up with my own evaluations of the facts involved. Have I always been right? No, not always but certainly most of the time I have been right and that is what I now follow.

Good luck with your fantasy. One piece of advice, "be emotionally prepared for when reality comes knocking on the door:.
