Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The Delano's. How'd they get rich?

Drug dealers. Sell opium in China, launder the money in America.
This country and England are a bunch of drug dealing gangsters really. The whole hidden history thing is really just drugs and gangsters and CIA types acting in accordance with one another . Shadow economy and underworld power .
Beats workin' for the da Man.

The Chinese sell their own kids into slavery, and they kill people with abandon for Communism.

Like I say, I got no sympathy for them, whatsoever.

Just opt-out of the corporate system as much as possible. Problem solves itself over time.
I mean I can't see how most people wouldn't at least acknowledge that working for a smaller or even mid sized business is generally better than a super company . The scale a lone makes it atomized and impersonal. Most people like interfacing with real people in their real community . A lot of FIRE jobs are scavenger like or down right extractive but even then if you work for your own insurance company over capital one I'd beat the smaller is less coerosive and soul wasting. People including hippies love them some local markets and fairs etc. Love handcrafted or so called home made. I wonder in the transition and even post scarcity if there will still be a kind of local Craftsmen like market for those authentic inclined peeps?
I think so. As long as the means of automation are distributed far and wide, people will be free to pursue whatever they want. It will be more about pursuing excellence than making a buck, since most things will be easily produced.

But that's way, way out there, and well past our own deaths.

I may start voting 3rd party just because neither of the 2 existing parties in power are doing anything for me. The wall showdown made me realize just how little the GOP did with the 2 years they had with control of the POTUS, senate, and house. I think the GOP is closer in theory to what my values are and the DNC has gone off the rails into crazy town, but I'm sick of rewarding the GOP with my vote only to have them squander their wins and fail to deliver on the promises I wanted them to keep.

No, the better strategy is to continue to expose the conservatives and libertarians of the GOP for the liberals that they are so that the electorate replaces them with real right congressmen and senators.

That strategy hasn't worked. Paul Ryan for example was one of those supposed "real right" guys. Turned out to be a huge fraud and disappointment. This churn is endless, we elect people that run on one ting and then turn into swamp creatures like everyone else. Burn it down. In the meantime I'll play the game the best I can to get the most I can out of this corrupted system. I've given up hope that voting either Dem or Rep is going to fix anything.

Who thought he was anything but a liberal?? The guy literally declared himself a follower of Ayn Rand. Market cuck through and through. Then when he refuses to take stands on personal morality issues, you know for a fact this guy is just a liberal.

Liberal == liberalization of personal and social morals. Conservatives and libertarians are all about liberalizing the economy. They don't see the problems created by that any more than a progressive can see the fact that homosexuality resulted in the AIDS epidemic, or that abortions and birth control have caused a demographic winter.

Liberals. Ignoring consequences for going on three centuries now.

Who's on lock? I see a lot of Yang Gang shills. I like Tulsi a lot. Neither one is going to happen though. What do we do now?
You're gonna see some serious YangGanging around here soon enough I expect.

Gibs Nation will declare war for Yang shortly.

Presidential candidate Andrew Yang has a meme problem
