Perhaps you should be in the position of reading some resumes to see what is out there today looking for work. Job Ad: "Please send resume with work experience and skills" Applicant: "I'm the best, hire me." Applicant: "Blurry phone camera picture of printout." (At least it looks like it might be a resume.) Applicant: "Resume template with default text." Job: Landscaping Applicant: "I've got a valid food handler card." Applicant: "Musician, Photoshop skills" Applicant: "List of air conditioned desk jobs worked" Applicant: "Uber and Lift driver." Job: Entry Level Applicant: "I have a Masters degree in marketing." Applicant: "XX-Current General Manager at XYZ Co." Applicant: "List of 10 prior jobs." None with more than a months length. Applicant: "Don't bother unless it pays $20/hr" It isn't pretty out there. It is rather obvious why US employers must import workers. The bottom of the barrel really stinks! What happened to our educational system? How did we ever let the best out of the system so the rest fell through the floor? Did some fool invent vouchers or charters or some such nonsense? |

Care to compare the number of jobs created in the 8 years prior to 2017 by quality of employment? i.e. starting wage, benefits, skill level, future advancement possibilities, etc. etc. etc.......Eye, did you check out Planet America, and The Wall links? There's months of history there without the B.S. that you live on. ;-) Or are you too scared to see what a proper "Social Democracy" point of view looks like? [edit] BTW Dull, you really need to get yourself some series help there buddy. ;-) [edit 2] Clyde should take a look at that site and it's links as well. ;-) |

Capitalism: The belief that everyone should be allowed to personally accumulate the maximum wealth their talents can legally generate. Socialism: The belief that everyone should be equally poor EXCEPT those who govern, who, should be allowed to personally accumulate the maximum wealth the governed can generate .......i.e. Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, DPRK, China, Russia, .......Turkey.......etc. etc. etc. "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Here we only have poor governers. |

Let me just put that right Capitalism: The belief that everyone should be allowed to personally accumulate the maximum wealth they can grab by any means possible. Or you are living in fairy land. |

Rump's base believes ... As California wildfires claimed their seventh victim, Donald Trump finally weighed in on the tragedy with one of his most confounding tweets ever, blaming California for the blazes because it “diverts†water to the Pacific Ocean. I guess Rump's base doesn't know rivers flow downhill to the Pacific. |

betreger... What are your specific disagreements regarding State Control of Industries and Unfettered Capitalism? OK I'll bite. Among others how the banksters are turning a generation of college students into lifetime indentured servants. Another crowd pleaser is big pharma exploiting the population. The US has the highest health care cost per capita yet ranks 19th in the world for results. Of course you must like citizen's united allowing oligarchs to manipulate the idiocracy, witness the latest "tax reform legislation" I would be remiss if I omitted Eisenhower's warning about the military industrial complex and it's self serving endless war. I could go on but this should give you an idea. |

betreger... Anti Capitalism does not mean that State (Corrupt Government) Control of Industries is not worse. I commented only on unfettered capitalism. As far as state control of industries, some should be state controlled, such as fire departments, public safety, others should not such as manufacturing, agriculture, and finance. That does not mean the state shouldn't have controls over them. I want safety, environmental standards and enforcement of those standards. If you view that is worse than unfettered capitalism then we strongly disagree as is common. |

Do you disagree? Why do you keep asking the same question? Did you not understand that I stated the state should not control some industries. Are you illiterate? |

Why do you keep asking the same question?Do bear in mind that the same old question along with the stale mantra "The old order is ending" is because with all his knowledge & experience, he cannot offer an answer to said questions. Should he attempt to do so, he knows that their replacements will be no better. Therefore the only remaining question is: Why ask those questions? |
Sirius B Send message Joined: 26 Dec 00 Posts: 24882 Credit: 3,081,182 RAC: 7 |
That will actually occur once you have a leader to be proud of & also when you actually answer questions without your constant asinine repetitions. 1 will definitely occur sometime in the near future, but the 2nd? Alas not in this project's lifetime. :-) |

Why bother trying to repeat answers for you that you can't seem to understand or even wrap your grey matter around? Pointless. |
