You might want to look behind the veil. China is nothing more than the world's sweatshop, under some brutal socialist rules. See or smell the death vans yet? How about the smog & toxins? Most of China, like 80% at least, are nothing more than sweatshop slaves, and will die as such. It was designated to be the world's sweatshop decades ago. Along with its socialist/fascist rule. IMO, it's a scary place when you look behind the veil.
China has problems to solve but who hasn't? >It was designated to be the world's sweatshop decades ago. By who? Have you been there? IMO something is going on there. regards, Ivo
We're already there my friend. The government controls housing, retirement (SOCIAL security), health care for the elderly and soon to be for the rest of us. Well, sooner or later, anyway. Any questions?
US nationalsocialism? The US certainly does not lack symbolism or nationalist chanting... and they lock frighteningly socialist today as well! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialism :eek: For being nationalsocialism: anti-parliamentarism - CHECK Pan-Americanism - CHECK(www.anglospeherchallenge.com , www.newamericancentury.com) welfare state ideology - CHECK today, I guess - FNM and FRE(?) racism - CHECK, checkered past but Neocons hate blacks and huge socioeconomic systemic bias collectivism - CHECK, chanting, symbolism, rallying, self-censorship .. disturbing eugenics - CHECK - hmmm, certainly elitist Managerial state and cognitive elite antisemitism - uhm, not really - but anti-islamists for sure - so, CHECK anti economic liberalism - CHECK, I guess anti political liberalism - CHECK too - they hate any egalitarianism anti-communism - CHECK, no doubt anti-capitalism - DUNNO, certainly not free markets anyway totalitarianism - CHECK totally - Patriot Acts, unilateral rampage and elitist control, "global war of ideas" Isn't the US in fact nationalsocialist?
Good point. The Great Depression plus WWII resulted in a generation who had a lot of character and perseverance. America really kicked arse during the post-war period, until Johnson/Nixon and the Fed fucked everything up. Personally I would love to see western society get away from the whole "borrow up to the eyeballs then speculate on asset bubbles you don't know shit about, just to make the Jones's jealous as hell" mentality. A generation of penny-pinching self-reliant curmudgeons would be fucking great awesome.
