We are a mature free market that is more and more dominated by monopolies which means higher prices. They once broke up mega corporations. Not much anymore.

OK. There was a shooting by the Canes and McDonald's in Mandeville recently as well. I'll still go there sometimes as well.


While you are saving up your money to "go sometimes to McDonalds" is impressive, your wealth is not part of this discussion.....though it may be a reason you are a pussy fat arse.

My Bachelor of Science didn't require any economics at all. So maybe 10% of the adult population in the US has had "Econ 101".


Fair point. Maybe that one class should be a requirement regardless of major. Even at trade schools.

Given the responses to this thread it seems obvious that much of this board, the left wing and "traditional conservatives" have joined the deep state. Not really "joined" per se, as the oligarchs consider them all debre and rodent excrement. But joined in the sense a useful idiot or grinning puppet promotes a cause. Heads to be patted and fed bugs until your time in the lab or gas chamber comes.

Congratulations retards. Here is your flag. Waive it until snot runs down your cheeks.

I dare you to walk 3 miles from our capitol building, Ill give you a map.

Walk 3 blocks above Bourbon, I dare you.

Go to most cities in the US at night. Go ahead.


I dare you to walk right out of Moscow State University into what they call Shanghai it was bad even before the USSR fell, it is much worse now. Or you could go hang out in Komsomolskaya Square which is every bit as bad as DC. It is right beside the main Moscow passenger train station. You get off the train and the station is incredibly gorgeous but it is like walking out of Versailles into East Harlem if you go out the wrong door.

There are areas of Moscow and the other large cities in Russia that are gorgeous and extremely well kept at extreme cost certainly but there are also areas just as bad as anywhere in the US.

False. We are in no way a true free market. We subsidize all sorts of shite and pick winners.

Another great example how we are not a free market and probably don't want to be one....
