Neil, when I was 16, I became obsessed with conspiracy after coming across them online. I thought the Fed was an evil private organization. I watched quite a few documentaries about the federal reserve and fractional banking put out by conspiracy leaning organizations and people. Thought 9/11...

Neil, I don't understand what you are getting at. Can you please elaborate? I am a full stack developer and run two online sale businesses on the side of my main job. I don't work for a bank.

Lol, funny comment on reddit I saw today If you are not interested in being informed, continue receiving your information from places like that.

Wrong. It is not run by foreigners. It is not an organization with no legitimacy. This is so wrong, I don't know what to say. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 created the Federal Reserve. And no, the nonsense of most the congressman not being there to vote is not true. Did the federal reserve...

Danger, this will be my last post here as it is a fruitless endeavor. You have your ideology. Stick to it. I think in the back of your mind you know you might have been mistaken, but I don't take you for the type to concede anything. Danger, yes, they are investing heavily into trade, part of...

To get an idea of what counties China is investing in, check this: http://www.nbcnews.com/news/china/belt-road-initiative-china-plans-1-trillion-new-silk-road-n757756 My question to you is this: is there any changing your mind on this or is your mind made up, no matter what I say? It sounds...

That's not true. These developing nations and other nations across the globe do not operate on a purely free market basis. Because China is pumping money into their infrastructure, these countries will want to use Chinese technology. China already has a huge population and is expected to surpass...

Neil, I was linking you to a source that has this stuff organized in a nice point by point basis when it comes to the Fed. Now, Stephan Molyneux is a very intelligent man, but his economic views are very misguided. You need some inflation for growth. Modern, developed nations tend to have a...

I already explained this a few times in the thread. I don't understand why you are still asking me that, to be honest.

Neil, you are misinformed on how the Fed actually works. The money isn't counterfeit. Also, I said nothing about guns.

Wtf? Lol. Are you sure it's the same Steve Mnuchin? edit: yes, it is

Also, I just read this. Yes, I agree, I hate the endless wars, and the wars are a form of corporate welfare. The military industrial complex lives off welfare. However, a gold standard is not possible or desirable at this point.

Danger, I don't see the world in terms of liberal or conservative. I am not either. I am more of the kind of person that tries to find objective truths. I don't care about ideology. I didn't say anything about tipping point. I was trying to present things in a way that pointed to the economic...

All I simply said is that the government can and does create money because you said they couldn't. The money supply/inflation thing is a whole separate topic.

Danger, I don't know why I have to explain this. I know you understand. That "donation" is actually an investment. You think China is doing out of the goodness of their hearts? I never said anything about tipping point. If I did, please quote me. But you won't because I never brought it up. You...

Danger, it's an investment. It will more than pay off when all those countries are buying their technology form China. The same way the Marshall Plan paid for itself tons of times over. The Paris agreement was a step in the right direction. It was never meant as the final piece.

Edited my post you quoted, check the quote/link as far as China's investing abroad As far as China/India and their emissions, check this: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/22/opinion/paris-agreement-climate-china-india.html?_r=0

Drop in the bucket compared to what China is investing on their own overseas because they want to buy allegiances so that they can sell their green technology abroad. Danger, the point of the investment to lesser developing nations (which is actually a very small amount of money, less than 1%...

Actually, they've already begun and are ahead of schedule. If you go through my post history, I posted a link in another thread about all the investment China is doing abroad in green technology. Don't feel like finding it.
