Quote from: JOE on February 24, 2024, 08:18:19 PMI've read or heard that a Gold standard would not be sustainable.
Quote from: Tommy Douglas on February 24, 2024, 02:24:27 PMThe three most repeated myths are cutting government spending on pet project hurts working men and women, mass immigration has more pros than cons, and racism is systemic.Negative reactions to sustainable spending are more obvious back in Canada. When any provincial government said they would hold spending to zero or even cut it one or two percent for one year, the headlines would always include the words draconian. We were promised the sky would fall on health care, public education, wind and solar subsidies and municipal budgets. They never did.
Tommy Douglas is no longer in politcs. Government spending today only benefits friends of the government in power. Those are people that need it the least. They take our money and give it to overpaid bosses at the CBC for example.
Real socialist want a growing prosperous blue collar working class. Taking our money and giving it to fat cat civil service bosses, corporate lobbyists for green energy/electric cars, and special political interests does not improve any wage earners life. You know what will? Cutting that spending and letting working people keep their own money.

Quote from: JOE on February 24, 2024, 02:30:07 PMYeah but that's besides the point, Lokmeer.
Quote from: Lokmar on February 24, 2024, 01:48:54 PMLMFAO!!!!
The only thing getting rid of Apartheid did was make the ENTIRE country a shithole! They took that model and exported it world wide.
Quote from: JOE on February 24, 2024, 12:33:19 PM...of those nations, the one to keep on eye on is South Africa.
Rich in minerals such as gold and platinum but not well run nor politically & economically stable.
That's why I think commodities is the place to be for future growth. And if something happens there then the prices could shoot up.

Quote from: Oerdin on February 24, 2024, 10:03:37 AMOnly idiots thought there would be a BRICS currency. India said from the begining it didn't want any currency union, China demanded everyone just adopt its crap currency, Russia demanded it's currency which no one wants, and South Africa suggested gold which no one could affordThose economies are too diverse and too separated from each other to have any real form of economic integration.
None went into an details at all. That is because BRICS is nothing more than a phot of and nothing more. They don't even trade with each other. They literally have never made any meaningful agreement on anything.
Quote from: Oerdin on December 30, 2023, 10:01:57 PMIt really doesn't matter as BRICS doesn't do anything of substance. It is literally a photo op.
Quote from: Herman on February 23, 2024, 10:49:31 PMPain for who? Those woke assholes in unnecessary managerial postions that are living high on the hog at taxpayer expense.That is how it works. The US, Canada, and Britain are spending record amounts of money and it is not helping the working class. Health care, education, and infrastructure are all worse under Biden and Trump.
I like what Alberta next door did. Fired all the bosses on their provincial health board. All were making three hundred grand plus and none of them delivered health care on the front lines. All were demanding more money, but no improvement for health care. The pricks are unemployed now.

Quote from: JOE on February 22, 2024, 10:11:22 PMWell to answer yer comment/question there is inevitably gonna be a lotta economic pain when there are budget cuts. The poor people in Argentina are gonna suffer even more.Pain for who? Those woke assholes in unnecessary managerial postions that are living high on the hog at taxpayer expense.
However I admit maybe Millei has no choice. It's either swallow the pain now or later.
So he choose to do it now and maybe it'll be better for Argentina in the long run.
I kinda think Canada could face that to if the current government keeps overspending like they are now.
Trudeau had his time but I think he's gotta go.
