Please note that we do not state our own opinion but are simply trying to communicate what both sides are saying. It's best we stay away from politics in the future.
Can you do a video on how you do this type of art because I love it and I want to learn how to do it.
This video
can be missleading
"...his seemingly sexist views on women..." poor choice of words if you are not trying to show your opinion
Crenz I think it's fair to say his statements in the past are certainly not pro women. that's just fact
Totally agree with you Jacob. If over 80% of Muslims still have access to the USA then it is obviously not a Muslim ban.
Sounds like the script writer has been swayed by the media when writing this.
If you can honestly look at Mussolini, Hitler and Franco, and say that Trump compares to those men. I think you may be a bit biased.
Child camp, with many cases of neglect and abuse, with babies representing themselves in court. Kind of smells like the beginnings of fascism.
He also wants to own his propaganda news station... and he even said he wanted to be dictator. Smh.
A bit?
@David Ferguson you forgot about the rest of the interwar period from the end of ww1 to the beginning of ww2.
@AmericanPatriot that's a tricky one. I don't know the statistics but I'm pretty sure for every radical there would be hundreds if not thousands of people/families that just want a chance at a better life.

Really. We aren't even close to a fascist country.
Rather:
"The fascists of the future will call themselves anti fascists."
right wouldn't that be the democrats right? who are burning shit to the ground, inciting violence to free speech, and are causing all sorts of hell while forcing their agenda nobody wants, and claiming you are a bigot if you don't like their "tolerable" point of view
It's not a Muslim ban. Please don't give false info.
though it is technically not a muslim ban, it is a restriction against many majority muslim countries. It also is there to make sure that people of a different religion (Trump specified christian, though the law is actually broader than that) than the majority (Muslim) in those countries can get in more easily. Therefore, it is accurate to call it a muslim ban. (And besides, the episode wasn't about the travel ban, and so it would be unnecessary to go through those details) Also, I am pretty sure that any that chooses to watch these videos is informed enough to know the details when something is referenced.
Orangy Pteco Amen
That only applies to 7 out of 53 muslim majority countries. The countries that are on that list are countries that do not have entirely stable political situations. If 7 out of 53 is a ban, then he's doing a pretty crappy job.
they said its muslim ban, so it must be its name
Thanks for saying the truth
The United States is a Constitutional Republic, not a Democracy. The word Democracy does not even appear in the Constitution.
Republic is just a short way of saying representative democracy…
@@kowloon1608 And you would be incorrect. A republic is nothing like a democracy. Our Founding Fathers did NOT want a democracy. They did NOT want an uninformed and easily misled populace electing Senators and Presidents. They were not perfect, but they understood human nature.
@@michaelmills6624 If you want to get the most accurate definition of the United States, it is a Constitutional Representative Democratic Republic. Our government is not soley a republic, nor is it soley a democracy.

That was very brave of Finland to eliminate race-requirements to serve in government in 1906. I'm sure that gave tremendous hope and inspiration to the 12 non-white people living in Finland at the time.

@@starrynight669 They are just comparing things from diffrent areas. It is not correct to compare democracy to fascusm, as democracy is a tool of election of leaders of the country and can exist in many forms, as demcracy in acient Greece and democracy in modern USA is diffrent. It would be correct to compare democracy and dictatorship, but not democracy and fascism. Fascism is an ideology.
Read "Liberal Fascism"

Its not a muslim ban. Excellent misinformation.
No. He was only banning countries with terrists active inside and countries looming with disaster. (Please excuse spelling, I'm not English)
Table Salt Why?
dank memer you're right it's not but this ban will create hate towards Americans even more
Geedi Ali if ISIS uses the executive order as a scapegoat to increase anti-americanism and to gain more influence, power, and numbers, that'll just give president trump more of an excuse to send in troops/airstrikes. it's a win-win.
theguywitdastuff He literally said the words "Muslim Ban" on his Twitter, you brainwashed sheep.
Just saying it isn't a Muslim ban. Not very informative.
Except the courts have pointed out (numerous times really) that not a single terrorist that has done an attack in the United States has ever come from the countries that are in the ban (almost all of them came from Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE) and that Donald Trump has even said that 'Persecuted CHRISTIANS' get preference and if they are from said countries that are part of the ban, they are the exception. That is enough evidence to suggest it IS a 'Muslim Ban' based on him even saying PRIOR to the election that he would implement a 'Muslim Ban' if elected.
Well I can call lead gold. But if I don't have the power to turn lead into gold it is stil lead. Even if Trump wanted a Muslim Ban he is has no power to implement such a ban. Therefore it is not a muslim ban.
Tytus de Zoo I like the way u think
Alucard13211 Actually it is a list of countries that governments cannot vet their citizens. The US doesn't actually carry out background checks, the countries the immigrants come from do. If I went from say France to the US, France would look at my history and give it tot the US to help decide if I may be a terrorist or criminal. In countries like Syria where the government has almost no control over half its claimed territory this could be pretty hard to do.
Oh and the list of countries were decided by the Obama administration and Trump then asked many departments if it needed any additions, they did not add any more countries.
And a 90 day ban is not long. You realise that time is to be spent to aid the US' ability to vet people from these countries?
So many stupid people who to answer first. As a person born of immigrants the U.S. has one of the hardest vetting procedures of any country. Hence why people sneak in illegal and why ISIS has now taken to indoctrinated people online. So nice try for trying to be smart
Wait, Finland didn't exist in 1906. It was part of Russian Empire.
Yeah true form of democracy is "The rights to YALL" Thus bet usa by about 60yrs duh.
Finland was a Grand Duchy in personal union with Russian Empire because the Zar was the common ruler.
It is obvious Russia was more the more important of the two and Finland was controlled by the imperial Russian government but with some self determination in the interior affairs. That’s why Finland get some social reforms before the effective independence in the 1917 as a consequence of the Russian Revolution.

Wow good job putting Donald Trump in the thumbnail on a video about fascism
Clickbait at it's finest
But he could be putting trump in because were talking about democracy too
*Relevancy at its finest
Fascism is often put together with trump so it’s not far fetched to talk about it, I understand why you’re mad tho, clearly you support trump
@Noxic Alright let me explain this to you. I am a National Socialist a branch of Fascism and Trump does 1. Not have the same economic ideas as ANY form of Fascism given that we are third positionist and trump is a capitalist, that already excludes him. 2. He doesnt agree on the social part which would be fenatic Nationalism or the creation of an ethno state. And he loves Jews
. Trump is opposite of fascist...now biden on the other hand. ...
the us constitution is a republic, a democracy is when the people get to vote on every law made. A republic is when people elect leaders who make the laws (leaders such as the president and congress).
A real democracy would turn any country to shit.
In a country like Brazil, people would want everything free, wouldn't want to pay taxes, would persecute drug users, would favor state-owned companies over privatized ones, and would sentence to death any criminal: from a pickpocket to a corrupt politician.
Each state must have a republican form of government. you confuse the hell out of people when you start mixing republic and democracy. I don't know who invented this name for it, but it was probably some liberal professor justifying his salary way after the constution was created. democracy is the worst form of government.
A democracy on a large scale is impractical. That's why the US was a republic because the founding fathers feared tyranny of the majority. If it were a small town of 500 people though, then it may be possible. But it would probably go to shit if that small town became as bi-partisan as the US was now or around the 60-70s.
Not entirely. Here in the Netherlands we vote for the people that make our laws (literally the individuals themselves), but we live in a constitutional monarchy since we still have a monarch (though it's basically just for appearances).
+Fox Switzerland I think
Why did you change the video?
Edit: a year ago this video was much longer and actually compared what fascism is and compared and contrasted what the difference was. Now it’s nothing but a thinly veiled hit piece. I cannot believe the lack of integrity you’ve shown.
Now this is just a hit piece
I had liked this video but now I disliked it because I didn't remember all those things from the original video.
Russia came and censored it xD
Steampunk Sentry Russia is the best place to get truth from news. Russia supports freedom of though and freedom of press. Fascist democrats and globalists who want you dumb and docile so they can brainwash you are the ones who censor the j yet net. Who was censored first? It was Infowars, Alex Jones and now all the “conspiracy” channels which talk about aliens and UFO are being taken down as through they never existed. How about Remote viewing and Astral Projection sites being shut down as though they never existed? Russia is not censoring anyone I’ve ever noticed. They people who censor are the brain washed fascists in USA and Canada who are so dumb that they stopped to think completely and now only run on feeling sand emotions.
He's a Liberal, surprised?
@@Aishas_Goat "Fascist democrats and globalists"? Fascism was a nationalist reaction against socialism and capitalism -- both of which are globalist.
Trump is not a fascist. Too many people throw that word around despite not fully comprehending its meaning. If he were a fascist, he would not have done away with as many economic regulations as he has.
@@TalonLynch I didn't say he was right to do that, I said that if he were a fascist, he would not have done that. Mussolini was the prime example of a fascist leader, and he certainly did not favor lots of deregulation of business.

Do you think they don’t know their wrong? I think so, I think they’re lying and describing it the worst way they could possibly come up with, it’s just another propaganda. Fascism would be BAAAAADDDDD news for transnational corporations, as they would be forced to conduct all business in the nation, which would eliminate their sweatshop and profits. Also they’d be overseen by the government and all United into large groups according to profession under corporatism.

You will be okay. With a republic the will of the people is through elected representation. Anyone on u.s soil not given equal rights to others makes it so.

The symbol that you used for fascism is actually a flag of a state in Switzerland wich uses a direct democracy.
It's also in the Colorado state seal.
You mean St. Gallen. They are democratic, but they do have a fascus symbol on their flag.
Democracy only works well in peacetime. In a war, you need to have a central authority, but also an Assembly/Parliament of some sort, to restrict the leader's power. In Poland-Lithuania, the country was invaded by the Ottoman Empire in 1672, and the Sijm (Polish Parliament) could not decide whether to raise war taxes, conscript soldiers, sign a peace treaty, any war plans ect. It was a huge mess, and the Polish King (later the hero at Vienna) could do nothing but lead his small army (which the Sijm couldn't agree on whether to increase or not) against over 100,000 Turks.
That's also the case with Ceasar, some say he was a dictator but he was just the leading figure to get the job done. Authority isn't bad, you just have to be careful of how much power they have and make sure the people can overrule it when needed.
the movement of the teacher freaks me out

1:00 “forceful suppression of any opposition!” This is false, fascism claims that no government can run without the enthusiastic support of the people. As Mussolini put it: “if people are to be measured, as they should, qualitatively and not quantitatively, then Fascism is Democracy in its purest form.”
This person who. Done this video needs to remove it its fake news
The Nazis intimidated political opposition but couldnt forcefully suppress them. Only when they were voted in by the people he banned other parties
Fascism is literally a authoritarian ideology
@@tristanmahlersvensson8395 FASCISM is AUTHORITARIAN
@@tristanmahlersvensson8395 Fascism was a dictatorship, and an Italian is telling you that. The fascist regime was largely based on violence, organized by squads called "squadristi", which were soldiers who beat opponents with batons and made them drink castor oil . In your opinion, isn't this way authoritarian? Mussolini asked the king, after the march of 22, for permission to reform the government, and the king did not stop him because he did not trust the army and trusted the fascist ideology. And so Mussolini becomes head of government, prime minister and secretary of state
I believe they excluded women and slevaes because they didn't had education, so their opinion doesn't have any importance.
Alex
Well if you give them the right to vote you might as well give them some education.
First they need the education then the right, I wouldn't give fire to a child
Alex Well it also sounds like you wouldn't give him water to put out said fire.
Sad.
Always putting up excuses to hinder the availability of enlightenment to those who need it has always been the reason as to why societies don't survive.
1. Slaves*
2. Also its "because they didn't have* education".
3. And it should also be "so their opinion didn't* have any importance" because you used didn't previously in the sentence and should maintain the tense you used.
You should be excluded from voting. :)
Actucally women had education in Greece and Roma as well, they were taught math, gramar, music, sports, weaving etc. While men were studing politics, war science, poetry and later philosofy. And funny enought, lots of teachers were slaves called "pedagogs", so some slaves were quiet educated too. Women didn't vote cause men had superior position in most sociaties due to the division of labor. And if you know what "slavery" means i think it odvious why any slaves can't vote.
I think Oswald mosley's fascism is the best kind of fascism
I think Pinochet had the best kind of fascism

That's what regime means. It doesn't have a negative connatation, unless some is uneducated in that regard or is an ideologue.
@Dominic Scalia What does it matter what people called it? The word has a certain meaning to it and if you are willing to let people change I guess go for it. Words have only the power you give them.

Fascism is a totalitarian, authoritarian, nationalistic form of government.

The government organize and influence the life of its citizen through social programs and welfare policies.

Ancient Rome democracy is the definition of "true democracy" they just had stricter rules on who could be a citizen.
Also Hitler wasn't a fascist, he was a very nationalistic socialist.
Fascism is formed after the country it is in. Thus, NatSoc is German fascism
Fascism existed in ancient rome , but it was not called fascism :) it was called everyday life :)
Ancient Rome was pretty much an oligarchy calling itself a democracy, it's central rule of power was the senate but the only way to become a senator was to be rich and have all the other senators like you, it was not a very democratic place even if it claimed to be
Galaxy , Fascism doesn't have anything to do with race , but NatSoc does !
Fascism as a core ideology isn't racial, but it sees itself as the true democracy with the people propagating a leader to supreme power, so if the people wish the leader to be racial, he will be racial. Fascism in america for instance, would be racial because it is such an issue in america.

@@kimjunguny As usual when someone uses that description to associate fascism with the left, you are completely misunderstanding the context. Fascism is not about putting the needs of the group above the needs of the individual. It is about preserving the identity of the group by demanding conformity and assimilation, and rejecting diversity.
Recent examples would include unfounded paranoia over immigrants and refugees, or freaking out when say, a football player protests by taking a knee during the national anthem, thus in the eyes of a fascist, disrespecting the nation. Fascism is a right wing ideology.

I think the world would be a better place if people in school were taught politics as a core subject because then everyone would be able to be educated about both sides and have their own opinion. However, the problem would be that there would either be bias from teachers (wouldn't really blame them since its hard not to have bias) or propaganda from the government themselves - unless the specification was made by equal number of members of different ideologies
problem would be that teachers would talk better of certain political figures and parties according to their own taste

I think you mischaracterized Socialism, 1:09, without nuance. Socialism is public ownership of capital, of means of production, and does not need to own _all_ property. It ranges from "Pure Socialism", which is closer to your description, to just short of Laisse-Faire "Free Market" Capitalism. We have some socialism in the U.S.A., both governmental (roads, some utilities) and non-governmental (cooperatives).
And I think you missed the root of both the nationalist and racist features of Fascism: insistence of conformity. There is a reason that the rods in the fasces are all straight, and of uniform length.
I can tell by reading a lot of the comments that hardly anybody can agree what one thing really is. Different opinions, arguments n simply no clear answer.
Politics really push people apart.
Means politicians are doing their jobs apparently, at least in their eyes. Both pathetic and sad
Fascism needs a comeback. The chaos has to go I like stability.
Fascism was responsible of wars and genocides. Democracy is infinitely better
@KSHITIJ SHEEL Yeah, American treatment of Natives is an absolute horror, but this is not the tenets of democracy. Hawkish diplomacy and mistreating minorities are the very essence of fascism

You should do one on democracy vs. A Constitutional Republic
Both are practically the same thing.
Republics are representative democracies
Democracy: All the citizens vote for laws. Constitutional republic: All the citizens vote on representatives to then vote on laws, but they have a constitution with a set and stone list of laws on them already that cannot be broken.
@@specificocean588 you can add modifiers to “democracy” the same way you did to “republic.” As in constitutional representative democracy. In a pure direct democracy each citizen votes on each individual law, but in a representative democracy they elect representatives to do that, and in a constitutional representative democracy there is also a constitution in place. And in a “federal constitutional representative democracy” there is a federal government overseeing a collection of state governments. For all intents and purposes democracy and republic are equally accurate here in America.
@@godofspacetime333 theres no reason to call a democracy a representative democracy tho, thats literally just a republic

You're right that the video defined Fascism wrong, but you did too. Fascism is essentially "Us vs Them", "ingroup/outgroup", "extermination of 'the other'".
Your definition doesn't even make sense. A government can't care about "the individual". They can only care about multiple individuals as in...a group.
You can care about "the individual" because you care about many individuals that you know personally. The government doesn't know everyone, so they have to view us as a group or multiple groups

Great video, I love the animation!
Communism isnt a form of govt its an economic theory and most communistic countries have practiced fascism
No, fascism does not want collectivisation of the economy, that's communism. Fascists want a third way, an idea of worker and employer representation where each is equal, tripatrism of the Scandinavian countries is similar, only difference that fascism is protectionist in trade.
ITS NOT SUITABLE FORM OF GOVERMENT AT ALL
Democracy is the only solution nearest to the wellbeing of the general people without hampering liberties
This was a much fairer comparison than I thought it was going to be. Although there were some mistakes, this was quite well done.
The fact they are even bringing up Trump and Fascist shows they are not an unbiased presenter. It’s laughable to think trump had that much control over our government while the FBI and congress wouldn’t do what he said and actively worked to kick him out of office before he ever set foot in the office. I don’t like Trump at all. Definitely not a I better vote Trump because Biden is so bad guy either. If I don’t like a candidate I just don’t vote.

In 1906, Finland was still apart of The Russian Empire. Finland didn't gain independence until 1917...
I don't think people called ancient participatory politics "primitive democracy", they called it "primitive communism".
Also, "socialism" doesn't mean "authoritarian"; there are many socialist schools of thought that are libertarian, like what Noam Chomsky believes. I think you're referring to Marxism-Leninism.
Is there a single example of socialism not resulting in authoritarianism?

Fascism doesn't just pop into existance in it's final form, the groundwork builds up over the years. We push the limits of what we can say about people and then we push the limits of what we can with said people.Desensitize yourself far enough and what do you get
This is ridiculously biased. Your understanding of socialism is limited. Furthermore, you say you are comparing fascism and democracy, yet you begin by comparing socialism to fascism without any context. You simply note that they are similar in their economic approaches, which is not true at all. Have you ever heard of democratic socialism? You reserve the right to talk about what is a "true" democracy, but talk about socialism in its Soviet understanding. Fascinating.
An EXTREMELY biased look at the two, with some typical anti-trump rhetoric ar the end.
The inherent flaw in democracy is that there are too many chefs in the kitchen, and those who speak the loudest often know the least.
when i saw the dislike ratio on this video, i thought it would be because of misinformation or something, not because people genuinely support fascism
I believe it's because the script is essentially calling out Trump for fascism. Many people feel this is not unbiased information, and regardless of Trump's political ideologies, the facts should not have been delivered in such a way.
@@macey4315 yeah I get that- it's at least a defensible position. But I saw a concerning amount of people outright saying fascism is better than democracy, though maybe that isn't as high a percentage as I believed.
(but I do think this video is not great, mainly because comparing fascism to democracy doesn't really make sense)
@@aawwaa_ fascism is a marxist dog whistle for anyone that doesn't support communism
According to this thinking, those that fought fascism in world war 2 were fascists
@@AY-qf4pg well, some people are going to use words incorrectly. Most people aren't trying to dogwhistle when they talk about fascism
This is why Americans to care less about the president and more about their state's representatives..
Well, Fascism gets you a bigger army.

Completely misleading to compare socialism to fascism and present them as opposites. Socialism is a political economic theory. Fascism is completely different and has to do with social rule.
fascism Condemns socialism, read the doctrine of fascism
No, it's not completely misleading to compare socialism and fascism. That's your biased opinion where you clearly view 1 positively and 1 negatively and are trying to protect your image of socialism. They're actually not too dissimilar in their functionality. Benito Mussolini, prior to starting the National Fascist Party in Italy was a member of the Socialist Party and socialism helped shape his policies and positions.
@@whitewindgaming2885 LOL the leap of logic is hilarious. Did you know I was a conservative once? Then I became a liberal. Now I'm a socialist. So does that mean my views came from conservatism?
@@10003159 LOL Did you know I was a socialist once? And then I became a liberal, then a moderate democrat, and now I'm a fairly center-aligned libertarian.
It's funny how as you become more confident in yourself, take more ownership and responsibility for yourself, actions and life and stop blaming others for all your problems, life just gets so much better and you become so much less a socialist.
Socialism has never worked and never will work because of the self interest of individual humans that is coded in our DNA to look out for ourselves.
@@whitewindgaming2885 3 paragraphs and you didn't even answer my question. What the actual F Is your problem dude?
'Demos' is masses in Greek, not people. Demos and kratos (rule by strength). As long as 51% say yes, it's technically a democracy.

Modern day "democracies" are not democracies.
New Zealand has had right of women to vote since 1893, and earlier for Māori voters since 1867 (although some property owners had been eligible to vote since 1853).
Property ownership as a qualification for voter enrolment was all but removed in 1879 extending rights to working-class leaseholders (renters). In 1893 when women’s suffrage was passed, NZ garnered international attention also, for not only being the first self-governing country in the world to grant the right to vote to all adult women, but also to abolish plural votes, endorsing “one person, one vote”
Yes our MMP system is far superior to the anti democratic FPTP Voting

Not trying to badger, but early on you guys got socialism incorrect. Socialsim is defined as "workers own the means of production." There is a subset of social thought decrees that the government is owned by the people, and therefore so would business i suppose. But thats a far cry from "socialism is when the government owns business." Thats more akin to state capitalism, which is the late stage psuedo-communism China employs. Please don't confuse people more. 😁
Fyi infographics show is heavy right and they will do anything to make socialism look bad even if it makes absolutely no sense
Thank you so much for this. Yeah this video intentionally muddies the waters, and it's scary. It implies that Fascism can be Right or Left wing, when that's one of the dumbest proposals I've ever heard
You will never get an unbiased political discussion from a major media source like this one.
To understand democracy read: Aristotle’s Politics
To understand fascism read: The Doctrine of Facism by Mousilini
It’s better to acquire info from the original source itself
You are a Biden voter aren’t you?
Thanks for getting us into this mess.

And that guy built took a nation from fishermen to a fking banking sector miracle, centre of finance in whole of asia.
the word Fascist is a misnomer. "Fasces" is not where Fascism came from. Benito Mussolini created "Fascismo" as his term for the type of government he was running. Mussolini really didn't care about race actually. Fascism means nothing, there is no definition for it. Usually its used as a synonym for totalitarianism.
Wait, so you believe that "Fascism" doesn't come from "Fasces" even though both words obviously have the same root and the fasces was the main symbol of the Fascist Party?
I can only assume this amount of pedantry indicates your political bias, i.e: towards Fascism itself.
Obviously, that part of the video was referring to the ETYMOLOGY of the word, not the origin of the ideology. Everyone understood that. The video never said (nor implied) that Fascism was created when someone decided to put an axe and a bunch of sticks together. Your automatic defensive posture is EXTREMELY suspicious here.
Why are you running? Why are you running? ?
I don't know why but it just came to my head whilst watching the video.
Another great video good job👍👏🏆
This just showed me why anarchy is a completely justified form of "government".
As always, this has been informative. I'd say that in small groups, socialism could work because in theory, everyone would be working for the common good of their familiar group. As groups get larger, there'd be less concern for unfamiliar people, thus cooperation would fall apart. In my opinion, an educated populous is needed for a successful democracy and a trustworthy ruling class is needed for a suitable republic.
Staying away from politics at a critical time, when fascism is brewing, is cowardice and
complacency.
Thank you for explaining the difference between national socialism and Marxist leninist socialism. fascism allows private ownership
Did you know:
Communism and socialism include democracy?
Babcia Stefcia communism is not democracy XD
it is
communism is an economic system so we can have democratic communism
Babcia Stefcia that statement makes no sense. Every system is Economical as long as there is trade. And communism is not democratic, some communist countries have elections but only with communist parties so even if 99% of the population wanted to leave communism they wouldn’t be able to.
Democracy is a system where the people choose the leader. It took place in every communist country
Except in the USSR during Stalin. He fucked up the country so hard no one was able to fix the economy until the whole europe united to do so.
Again, I can't see why Stalin's dictatorship = communism for you. It's like I said capitalism = Trumpf
Babcia Stefcia thats what democracy is, democracy allows anyone to form a party and be voted for, communism ban all parties that isn’t communist, essentially a dictatorship in party type.
Now i’m going say this as you sound very communist. Communism and socialism DO NOT work. They cause widespread poverty and corruption.
Firstly they both deliver equity based on outcome which causes the value of work to decrease as there is little gain from worker harder jobs. Whats the point in becoming a surgeon or a lawyer if your wage is minutely increased and your always guaranteed a house anyway? Secondly, Communism places restrictions on advertisement and profit gain. People won’t start businesses as there are few, if any, ways to promote there product. The government would restrict most product that we deemed with the intention of making profit. This could include smartphones, PCs, TVs and any other luxury item I assume you use daily as you made that comment. Large corporations not controlled by the government are an automatic no. This cause rapid unemployment as most people in the world are not self employed and work for major corporations such as tesco, wallmart. apple, construction companies. Even your food and drink would be restricted as many branded products would be prohibited such as coke or popular food brands. Lastly foreign investment and tourism would shrink to a minimum or none. Foreign companies invest in prosperous countries that bring them customers. These companies would provide jobs and new products to the country or make existing products cheaper. Tourism will have severe restrictions and those tourists that do come will have pre-planned stay by the government. And referring to my previous statements, there isn’t going to be any jobs serving tourists not is there going to be much for tourist to buy.
All of this shatters the Economy. And if you want to leave? You can’t. Because you can only vote communist.
This leftists just makes me laugh hahahahahahahahaha
