And they got the number of fingers correct.

I mean yes, I love airshows, but there’s something about a mass celebration of these machines of death where a crowd gathered for a completely unrelated purpose gets to see the last thing an afghan child at a wedding sees gives ick in a way that normal airshows, even with all the military recruitment and propaganda don’t.

It doesn’t even apply to all flyovers, sometimes it’s like F-14s or Chinooks or WWII era planes where the message isn’t so dark.

Does anyone else also fly bombers and fighter jets over stadiums at the start of a game? Do you take 2-5 minutes to honor some guys in the military during half time?

I literally listed countries where you wouldn’t be meaningfully contributing to the system.

Periphery countries still contribute to the system; the US doesn’t have military bases in most of those countries by happenstance, but because keeping them in that position benefits the bourgeoisie.

To be clear, the answer isn’t to say everything is futile and hopeless, it’s to participate in organizations which don’t contribute to the system and build duel power within these countries, or just move to non-capitalist countries.

They do increase the monetary supply though, in 2008 it was .9 trillion, in 2020 it was 6.4T, and now it’s 5.6T.

Turns out inflation doesn’t quite work the way most economics courses teach. That may be related to the way billionaires fund a lot of university’s economics departments.

stop working for those billionaires

There is only a few countries you can move to that allows you to not contribute to those billionaires.

I’m not saying that fleeing the US isn’t a good idea.

That’s money (ideally) used to benefit everyone.

Not really; the federal government prints money; they don’t tax you to fund programs, they tax you to reduce the monetary supply.

State governments do have to be funded though.

I am not talking about taxes, I am talking about the profit the capitalists make off your labor. The trillion dollar media empire OP is talking about, Fox News, CNN, Reddit, twitter, etc aren’t funded by your taxes, though they are subservient to the state department.

Not to say that dodging federal taxes isn’t either good or neutral, but the problem isn’t specific to this administration.

Where are you living that the wealth you create doesn’t end up in the hands of billionaires who then spend it on propaganda to convince you and others that that is just?

Cuba? Vietnam? Laos? China?

If you’re working for a wage while they reap the profit or subject to market forces they dictate, they’re taking your money.

The English custom, afternoon tea, by the Duchess of enjoying, was introduced of bedford.

827USD/m2

To be clear, this isn’t exactly an apples to apples comparison; even if the US did free trade school with subsidies for living costs and everything, you’re not going to get skilled metal workers and carpenters working for $35/day. While labor costs are only ~25% of the cost of construction, the same applies to how low you can get material costs, even when you’ve got central planning for concrete and steel industries.

This is good, but if we address this at a systemic level, we don’t need to put people in tiny low-density homes unconnected to anything for it to be affordable.

China addresses it by looking at how much labor and materials is required and ensuring the price of concrete, steel, glass, etc is sufficiently low for the number of homes they need constructed, and that there is enough of each type of skilled labor that goes into building a home.

Presumably local governments have some mechanism for when they know a house costs X materials and Y labor, and they see new construction costing significantly more than that.

The result is detached homes@avg 75USD/sqft and apartments@55/sqft. With current interest rates of 6.768%, you’d get ~400 sqft homes with a $200/mo 30 year mortgage at those prices, 600sqft if interest rates were 3%.

The open zionist who chased a black guy through his neighborhood with a shotgun because he thought he must be stealing was bad before the brain damage, we just mistakenly told ourselves he learned from his mistakes or was saying zionist stuff to stop AIPAC from funding his opposition in the general like they did during the primary.

It’s better to let them look at the sentence and be like “Wait, I can read this”

Who will read it?

Yall know he’s pro-Israel right?

Most Hollywood actors have garbage geopolitical takes. The only exceptions I can think of are Boots Riley, Roger Waters, and Pedro Pascal.
