Trump Should Take Care around Neo Capitalist Putin

Post by Naga_Fireball »

Anyone who believes we are up against communism re: Russia/Putin, don't make me laugh.

Putin is following the same formula invented by the oil magnate Bush family, when he invaded the middle east. In fact our two nations have been switching roles every few years, sort of a good cop bad cop joke, but we're sitting in the same gasoline powered cruiser.

To Mr Putin I say, true capitalism never mocks. It occasionally steals, but it is not a mere copycat. The spirit of pure capitalism cannot be clearly separated from the spirit of creativity. Bounty of the wallet follows the bounty of the mind.

This state cannot be achieved by world powers locked into the stagnant cycle of supply and demand of the old.

True capitalism demands the new, the improved, the efficient, and the cheap.

We are getting none of these things by destroying foreign culture over a few cubic yards of gas or oil.

Aside from some personality quirks, I'm not seeing much to like about Mr Putin until he does away with his Imperialistic oligarchy of neo capitalism and does an honest inventory of his country and its long term goals.

Being the biggest baddest animal on the endangered list isnt power.

Not coloured like his own, and having power
To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey.

The important aspects include a great economic freedom, attaching the private property of the industries and companies, moderated with a centralized economic planning, which can include that the State is an owner of some means of production.
Gazprom was created in 1989 when the Soviet Ministry of Gas Industry was converted to a corporation, retaining all of its assets. Although it is a private company, the Russian Government holds a majority stake in the company. Gazprom is involved in the Russian Government's diplomatic efforts; distortions of gas prices, and access to pipelines.[4]
neat trick...


P.s. when Standard Oil was broken up in , what, 1911, it was because, owning the land and producing the oil, plus having sole oversight and control of its distribution, was considered a stinking, god awful monopoly .
On May 15, 1911, the Supreme Court ordered the dissolution of Standard Oil Company, ruling it was in violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The Ohio businessman John D. Rockefeller entered the oil industry in the 1860s and in 1870, and founded Standard Oil with some other business partners.May 15, 2012
Lol my mind trying to come up with a Trump Hotel monopoly joke. Sigh.


Seriously though.

Titanic sank right after the monopoly was ripped away from Rockefeller.
Think about all the exploding rockets and failed space launches lately.

2+2, 1+1, etc
