    They really don't have a choice ... He's a dictator. Be-careful what you say because you could be in the same boat IF trump gets reelected.
    That's just not true.

    But! We are only headed in the same direction IF trump gets reelected.

    I always enjoy fake news threads. It reminds me of how easily the populace can be manipulated by their government.....especially when they have never left the country.

    The father of linguistics and distinguished public intellectual that has authored over 150 books on war and politics states that:

    There are two states that rampage in the middle east carrying out aggressions, violence, terrorist acts, illegal acts, constantly. They’re both huge nuclear weapon states

    The United States and Israel. The two major nuclear states in the world. I mean there’s a reason why, in international polls, run by US polling agencies, the United States is regarded as the greatest threat to world peace by an overwhelming margin. No other country is even close. It’s kind of interesting that the US media refused to publish this. But it doesn’t go away.”


    This famous Jewish scholar is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is a laureate professor of linguistics at the University of Arizona and an institute professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

    Do your credentials match his and should we therefore adhere to your opinions over his?

    Maybe.

    Even with the “best and brightest” in charge central planning undermines the security of even the most robust economies.

    There are big cracks in the Chines economy, and I don’t see any easy fixes.

    The thing with financial forecasting is that it is highly volatile and almost exclusively reliant on speculation and insider trading.

    Meaning, it's anybody's guess.

    Yes, in China the peons are lucky. Why at the moment they can all have two homes each if they want! Those 'homes' wont have any doors, windows, electric power or working plumbing but they're all vacant possession and free for the choosing. Whole cities of them, they can take their pick. And all for a modest deposit!

    Maybe in 2019 ~ 2020, not today. China has one foot in it's grave and the other on a banana peal.

    Better than sleeping under Brooklyn bridge or any bridge in America for that matter.

    You must be the only person here who doesn't know who I'm referring to.

    In any case, a little research of the bio iGave you on him should bring up an exact profile of the Jewish scholar in question that calls Americans and American backed proxy, Israel, the biggest terrorist states today but something tells me you're only interested in deflection from his synopsis that scare the living daylights out of you and every war hawk on this site, whose sense of diplomacy was left in the garbage bin from whence their ideology was birthed.

    Those links are intresting but unrelated. Here's a hint this is a discussion board not a game of 20 questions.

    In any The United States has been, and is, a keeper of the peace. IF, I knew who your "scholar" is and could read his works I'm sure he would agree. :bye:

    Depends on where you live. A bridge in California might well beat a half finished apartment in north west China.

    With the border being over run as it is, it won't be long until under bridge space brings a premium.

    Did I shoot not the real Kazan, but a fake one?

    I can find such pictures about America. Drug addicts in Los Angeles, garbage dumps in any city, old buildings, dirty alleys with rats.

    Our "hoods" and slum areas are luxury neighborhoods compared to some RuZZian cities.
