      Yes this all started in the 70's with Reagan policies. If you watch Requiem for the American Dream - Noam Chomsky
      You will see the golden age for the economy was 50's-60's and earlier after 30's was the largest taxes to the richest people/corporations (above 80% after 1M in profits)
      It was Reagan and every pres after that reversed that and threw in multiple deregulatory actions to make corporations essentially people with human rights and insane protections. It started the revolving door between lobbying, corporations and government policy makers making eachother rich at the expense of the large majority of Americans (the bottom 70% of earners)
      This trickled into farming agriculture, medical industry, factory jobs, manufacturing sector and technology sectors!
      It's actually just gotten worse infact the wealth inequality has skyrocketed. A perfect example is shown with corporations profits during Covid (2020-2022) where the rest of the population was destroyed.
      Imagine vaccines being created and sold to help the population as saviors as they claimed to be. Yet doubled and tripled their profits twice.
      If it was truly a humanitarian effort we would have seen profits to cover costs and development and trickled down extra profits to the medical workforce and treatment efforts. There where millions who suffered death from poverty due to their inability to pay for their treatments.
      Little to none of those profits went to the humanitarian effort, it went into their pockets and the development and research came out of America's pockets, 90% of the stimulus bills didn't go to the people or medical donations it went to corporations, pharma and politicians!
      In a fair world or even what's claimed by current political mouthpieces, we would see regulations restrict and limit if not cap this gross misuse of a system and the people's money

    ""There is a standard technique of privatization. Namely, defund what you want to privatize; like when Thatcher wanted to privatize the railroads, first thing to do is defund them, then they don't work, then people want change. And so you say "OK, privatize them," and then they get worse. . . . That is the standard technique of privatization. Defund, make sure things don't work, people get angry, hand it over to private capital. Well that's the social security scam." 1:09: 00 -- 1:10: 00

      Something similar is happening with the Post Office in the United States. For years they've been out competed, and their costs to operate outweigh the revenue they bring in - mostly due to the decline in mail. Trump recently appointed Louis Dejoy, a long time Republican donor and a chairman for the Republican National Convention in 2020, who still owns millions of dollars in stock with a USPS competitor, to essentially gut the Post Office. Most likely they will push for privatization under the next Republican president.

      Thatcher, the Godess of neoliberalism, set the course for privatisation of the NHS in the 1970s. They knew this could not be achieved in the same way as the railways etc. and that it had to be done by stealth over a long period of time, even a generation or two. Thus the process is ongoing when most people have forgotten how much better it was when it was when it was a wholly public.

      @@TheJester-ct5pi The USPS is in fact very competitive and would be a profitable entity if not for its crippling pension scheme. Pls google it. The same can be said for Canada. My dad was a letter carrier/Mailman with Canada Post for 35 years and helped author grievance letters for his Union rep.
      It's beyond my ability to articulate, but the gist is that the investmestment obligations to pensions are so inflated as to become difficult to fulfill, leaving the annual fiscal evaluations looking skewed.
      My single dad raised a family of five & paid child + spousal support from his modest (35,000) income from Canada post (& tens of thousands in credit card) for 15 years. He worked rain, shine or blizzard and sub -30°C temps.

      I hear ya. Easy to feel powerless against the powers that be. But take heart, we have inspired scriptures that prophesied anciently about our day. We know it will be a time of tumult. But-we also know God wins in the end, that he sees us and is aware of us. We are here for a reason, and I believe we can place our hope in the Son of God. I realize these comment sections make anything religious sound zany, but I know Jesus Christ is legit. "In the world you shall have tribulation. But fear not; I have overcome the world." Find good people in your community, connect in person, try to really see and understand and lift one another, and combine your talents together and spread goodness and light to others. As the horizon darkens, seek out those with light in their eyes and love still in their hearts. We will increasingly gather together as things unfold. Stay open to God. I'm not sure why I felt to write all this, but it felt right. Peace and blessings to you, Llorens.

    Actually communism was developed by working class movements and philosophers over hundreds of years, with particularly large work being done by Marx and Engels. 'Communism' in the USSR, etc., is however a construction of the ruling class (like you say). It used the name of communism (a good thing which makes life better for people) for a system which was monstrous, just for the gain of a small bureaucratic and political elite. Sounds familiar!

    (c. 0:01) Opening remarks by Louise Cowin, Hart House Warden

    • Excellent introduction, except for the last part, which must disappoint Dr. Chomsky. "More than any other individual, I think it can be truly said that Noam Chomsky speaks truth to power." However, Dr. Chomsky has publicly discussed the futility of "speaking truth to power", when the ruling class in power is well aware of the truth. We appreciate the noble sentiment motivated by a desire for socioeconomic justice; but it's misguided. The ruling class in power is ruthless in its protection, and expansion, of the power they wield. We appreciate the sentiment; but the truth-telling is geared more for waking the folk up, rather than any moral appeal to the immoral/amoral ruling classes in power

      @nitroshortbus9856 2 года назад

      @@nikfelther The first thing I recommend reading is the "Treaty of Paris"!! It's the start, and it shows the history we believe, and were told[PUBLIC EDUCATION] is propaganda. Treaties are a good read, but the earlier ones are easier compared to later when the legal ese becomes difficult to comprehend, not an accident!!That treaty shows that the U.S.[A] is a commercial enterprise with private interest. They [not only the King and Pope]are the controlling private shareholders,investors, creditors not in the PUBLIC and unelected, the hand up the puppet's asses.
      The revolutionary war, wasn't even recognized as a war, it was a rebellion in which control of the colony's where granted. The King dictated all the Terms, does that happen if you were defeated in a war? [International law is where you'll find the rules of NATION'S and what it takes to actually win]. Example, the King retained his right to tax the land, he even drew the boundries. In the colonies, there were many Land and Trading COMPANY'S, Virginia Land CO., the CROWN, ect. and they are the predecessor of what we call corporations, they became states(municipal corporations) of which control was given, with conditions, like paying for both sides of the rebellion, and a tax on the land etc.!! This set the States up, and the debts owed, which when they defaulted the terms could be changed, for instance, the Articles made it hard to collect, soooo they dumped it and then a Republic became, a Federal Democracy with new terms( the CONstitution) and many debt defaults to come, and more changes to the GOVERNMENT that got worse for the people, and especially later in the South!!
      Look up the "WHISKEY REBELLION" it say's it all, it was a tax rebellion. The tax was unapportioned direct tax on farmers, makin them pay a tax on their personal production of spirits, the rebellion was crushed by George Washington, the largest armed militia he ever was in charge of was formed,[sound familiar] . Didn't take long for the CONstitution to be ignored now did it, I believe the Bill of Rights were added later, like the 2nd amendment, remember how the rebellion was ended, lol what happened to Declaration of Independence and the rights of free men to abolish a tyrannical government? This is the 1st President, lol, I forgot to mention that he owner of one of the biggest distillaries at the time, that forcing a tax on farmers, was a tax on his competition attempting to make them pay the same tax as his for profit commercial distillery, on their moonshine made from their end crops and used for barter to get them through winter, their farms taxed
      All agencies with 3 letters are examples of extra constitutional LAW/Legalities of which the CONstitution didn't say couldn't be done, not unconstitution, extra constitutional ?, conditions added to make that debt easier to collect.
      A great place to get a run down is Captain Slappy on RUclips, he puts to music the actual documents to read, he has alot of videos they move fast and they are packed with info, he recommends you watch at regular speed first, then slow it down to actually be able to read the documents. He has very few videos in which he actually speaks and will read a book giving his remarks so it can be comprehended the ones he does maybe on a playlist on my channel?
      Read 1793 Chisholm vs. Georgia this U.S.S.C. decision breaks down what the U.S. is, a corporation and it has always been, unlike many deluded "PAYtridiots" believe that the creation of D.C. made the U.S. a corporation, not true. This decision explains.
      ALL these major changes were done as additions to the Constitution and some blurr the line or violate it, all changes due to that debt, neither the War of Independence, or Civil War, were legally speaking wars, which explains alot about the Civil War not having any treaty at it's conclusion and the Leiber code Lincoln imposed instead the beginning of the end of respect for the constitution, the 14th is really the death blow, it made the constituition even more worthless and this lie about Lincoln being good and ending slavery is a joke, the EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION was only applied to the South, who did what the Declaration of Independence said, started another form of gov.inc, while the North actually kept their slaves, NJ was the last to end it, the problem was their succession came without the destruction of the tyrannical government they attempted to suceed from. Lincoln never recognized their independence, how else could that Emacipation proclamation be forced on South otherwise? Its purpose was to economically cripple them, not for any noble idea, he was a full blown tyrant, and actually didn't want blacks and whites even to live on the same continent, he was going to deport em, so I think John Wilkes Booth should be celebrated, the passage of the 13th was done after Abe's death, and slavery never ended, they just got a new master A.K.A., U.S. citizenship. Besides that, the Chinese got enslaved to build the railroads and crony capitalism/mercantilism came into power, State citizens got downgraded to the same status later on[if I remember correctly] The 14th amendment needs to be read, it destroyed anything good in the constitution. We the people became surety to the debt of the "People" and unable to question any debts created by U.S.(14th).
      James Traficant had a speech talking about a more recent reorganization of the CORPORATION, this wasn't appreciated and he suffered for it!!!
      Clint Richardson has done alot of work explaining the legalities of the system and how we really are voluntarily slaves to this legal entity because of what FDR did, with the creation of the Birth Certificate, made it all legal, and mankind and rights granted by God, got replaced, became legalities, mankind became an AGENT to a government created PERSON.
      Clint really gets into the legalities, Red Pill Sunday School is his channel he wrotes some books, one about the Strawman.
      LAWBOOKS explain personhood, agency, and you'll need legal dictionary, legalities are written in legal ese and require the terms be defined, and each term has various meanings which with an update can be redefined, like pandemic, vaccine, herd immunity recently for example, though the defined term may change the definitions are to remain as written at that time.
      We are men, who are born free, only to be voluteered by our parents to become an AGENTs for service of process for that LEGAL NAME, created by STATE, to take from us the only thing mankind really ever owed, his labor, through our ignorance of ourselves(Human NATURE) the few has controlled the many, just by knowing our nature better.
      GOVERNMENT, CITIZENSHIP , legalities are the antithesis of Law(10 commandments) and the Bible has had the same thing done to it by the CHURCH, it is the Law which modern LEGALITIES are supposed to uphold, how the CHURCH teaches it is as a 501c3 incorporation. It's the Law book, but is misconstrued as literally the word of God which really messes up any comprehension, God is living existence of NATURE, life, because it was translated poorly from a language that is figurative, written in metaphors, lessons of being Lawful men by honoring God's Law, which is unchanging, and not become Cesars commercial property, and Jesus was an example to follow only without the fate he met, the CHURCH is actually misleading mankind by presenting it as a true story, instead of lessons on remaining free men, by the time we figure this out, we have signed so many adhesion contracts and believe that name we identify as it's actually us, and when we believe something, we assume it to be true. Thats our nature, and once we believe a lie, even facts will be dismissed. A citizen is a legal fiction/person/organization/corporation created by GOVERNMENT who owns it, we are it's living agent or representation to be taxed on everything and subject to all legalities, fines, penalties, license, registrations, by identifying as that legal name.
      Look around the videos on my playlists, you can get alot of information, some better than others, don't believe anybody trying to sell you some legal process, or you can get millions for your BIRTH CERT, Soviegn citizen crap is half baked and intended to make you a fool, that's why they remain on RUclips, while others get censored, removed, or get the algorhythym so without exact titles they won't be found, if not deleted.

    As Professor Nom Chompsky said "Those who control the economic life of a country also tend to have overwhelming influince over state policy" -This can be summed up as "Those who control the economy can control the policy."
    This is similar to how Frank Herbert said "He who controls the spice, controls the universe."
    -Which, in turn, can, of course, most certainly be summed up as "Rich people got power."
    -As the professor implied, it can be simply summed up by the American elementary school adage "Money is power."
    Mathematically that is easily expressed as "m=p." This more importantly elucidates that since time is money and money is power, then power is time (t=m=p). This is a matter of transitive property. Since it is known that Money is fiat and Time is a subjective hallucination produced by the consciousness of one's ability to change and said effects of change, one must conclude that Power too is an illususory fiat- a hallucination of grandeur- a futile legacy in the face of a boundless yawning eternity full of all creation and destruction, forever and ever.

    Privatized is NOT FREE-MARKET theory.
    I know I can't re-hijack or put-back that term -- "free-market" but historically free-markets were created by early left-anarchists.
    Example (you decide what society we've lived in and are living in)
    Revenues under Liberal-Corporatism 1950's to Present (what we live under now) and under Agrarian-Capitaslim 1790 to 1870 and Industrial-Capitalism 1870's to 1940's
    (continued) Revenues are from: 1) Consumers-who-Purchase (goods and services) 2) Consumers-who-Invest 3) Gov't Intervention / Profit Protection / Bailouts / Consumer-decision-Reversal
    Free-market Revenues: 1) Consumers-who-Purchase (goods and services) 2) Consumers-who-Invest
    Stop fighting republican vs democrat -- they are BOTH liberal-corporatists -- they are anti-individualists -- they unionize to de-harmonize.
    Warren - Obama - Clinton's - Bushes - and Trump are ALL liberal-corporatists
    Chomsky is a libertarian-socialist and a minarchist -- he is sympathetic to anarcho-syndicalism -- but only sympathetic he knows you can't transition into such a society from here (this one) -- there must be a transition.
    Ron Paul is a Libertarian -- more on the propertarian side of the divide
    Yang is a social-libertarian and a pragmatist -- a one-day minarchist. I doubt he's a long-term anarchist like Paul or Chomsky.
    Bernie is a liberal-progressive -- he's anti-military-complex / anti-war-profiting -- like Paul, Chomsky. I think Yang is close to this view, in so far as in what he'd act or not act on. He is very interested in the economy and "fairness" at-no-cost.
    Yang is the best but requires too much intelligence to elect.
    Sanders is 2nd best but expect the Dow to be deeply and negatively impacted -- jobs, housing etc.
    Sanders says it will cost $57T (trillion)
    However, Sanders will alter the long-term course of America.
    Our oceans will still give us a financial markets advantage -- however the world will start to look for a global-police department -- HOPE pray it's not Russia

      Probably unless they can find a way to make it benefit them. I'd love to be able to go back in time but with the knowledge of what the future will bring intact. We might have been able to prevent it reaching this point.

      And just think the hippies didn't have franken foods, and there was still a middle class with jobs that could support a family. They would have come off those communes and burned this sucker down.

    "Education, why? Why do it?" Under normal circumstances, yes. Sit back, relax, enjoy. But do I really enjoy it?? If I'm not educated??? One more thing, personally I never had a chance. I was simply harassed at every single place of work that I had. So education/research was, and remains, my only option....
