The author even put the word in single quotes because he knew it wasn't really censorship, but still used the word anyway because everyone likes being the victim. Although, before the hive-mind downvote squad gets me…
Your rent is pushed up when billionaires like Trump sell real estate to foreign investors. Having foreigners own our cultural and economic institutions means they can push exert influence over us. If China owned the…
Could you explain what services, primary and secondary income mean in this context and why they matter? Im sorry I don't read German.
He means he disagrees with the people he downvotes. Afterall, anyone acting in good faith would agree with him lol
>investing in your country >foreign direct investment >sheiks owning the sports teams and chineese businessman owning all the prime housing We're saying the same thing
A trade deficit means that, on net, your trade partners end up with your currency and no goods to buy with it. So they start buying up assets in your country. Factories, companies, land, housing, bonds, etc. so by…
Because an earlier post misunderstood Rand's position and I wanted to clarify it. I guess I should have been more clear. My appologies.
Yup. Heavily protectionist. Thats exactly how an unbiased economist would characterize US trade policy. Stop watching msnbc dude. The USA became the world's largest evonomy with massive tariffs on basically all imports.…
Lol people won't actually address your point they just downvote your post. Hn is very classy when people bring up politics
The inability to devalue currency is why greece cant recover. The Euro is idiotic.

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
I totally agree. I was pointing out that church isn't really modern architechture as Rand saw it.
Agreed. It's pretty questionable to tell a Frenchman he shouldn't be proud of the Eiffel Tower because he didnt personally design it.
I agree with you, but only because you seem to have missed the crux (no irony intended) of Ayn Rand's ideology. She hated how even the style of the buildings around her embodied a people and culture she saw as a threat…
I agree, it is beautiful. But Ayn Rand would have hated it. That design is steeped in European and Christian traditions and symbolism. Those things are all anathema to her ideology.
There are 5 billion impoverished people who would move to a first world country and depress natives' wages to nil if given a chance. Those who haven't done so yet shouldn't be discounted either.
This is the only comment that gets at the heart of the matter. I would add that culpability is not zero sum. The shooter was 100% responsible, and the others were also partially responsible.
That's not what the article is about. Its about whole cities becoming unemployed as a result of factories moving overseas, and unfair trade deals signed in the early 1990's. The people in that figue moved because they…
Great point about the complexity of the real world. I would add that people who favor simple explanations are more likely to be centrist (supports status quo) because they are less likely to question the simple…
So you're saying if fox news set up a 'private' website to host trump's posts and only allowed pro-trump people to comment that wouldnt violate free speech because it is a private website and the government itself isn't…
>Twitter does not magically become a Public Forum, just because the President uses it. If twitter isnt a public forum, then trump should be able to block whoever he wants.
Do you think federal courts would ban President Hillary from twitter because twitter has a policy of banning right-wing speech Hillary wouldnt be allowed to ban herself?
