I always giggle when someone gives an argument connected to the banks post WW 1. Everything significant that happens in the bank sector post WW1 is manipulated and meant to happen so, you cant give events there as some natural rational explanation, because they're not.
Post WW 1 :
- Fed reserve is created.... by private banks
- $ takes over as the leading international trading currency ( up to the point where over 80% of the deals are done in $ )
- USA basically "scams" european powers out of their gold, currencies are less and less bound to gold up leading to the point where gold has nothing to do with money
connect the dots?

i like most of what you post about finance but i'm having a very hard time getting behind this argument.
i think in general ppl are scared about concentration of power (1%, banks, large corporations, government etc) with good reason, but i don't actually see any argument in your post. it actually feels like gnarly hacked your account and posted some pseudo chain of events presented as a CONCRETE BULLET PROOF ARGUMENT * DEAL WITH IT * 8) |

If you think I'm being serious all the time, you need to re-evaluate yourself. There are a few things that I do know, and there's lots of things I have a slight idea of, and like to expand those just simply from my mind. Sometimes, I like to throw out random shit to see what opposition I get, so I can get a better view of what I'm actually trying to see.
Things I'm serious about: Keystone XL, metals
Things I'm not serious about: Socialistic capitalism
If the US become so automated that labor in pretty much any sense of the word was a thing a past, we'd still have to worry about the global economy and foreign economies that are still running how things have been running. I like the idea of corporations being jellyfish from the jellyfish lake, but that stems from the idea that corporations are simple organisms, having no control over what they do because they only react certain ways in certain situation. (if they are experiencing losses, it's either because they are trying to bring down the company, or that they'll start needing to re-organize and re-face the company. when they are experiencing profit, they want to milk it as long as possible) |

the most beautiful people are white, though, and you can't explain that, can you? That's what I thought. |

Let me get this straight, you paint me as the person saying "Hey, I'm retarded" and then paint yourself as the person who says "Fuck off!"? If this is true, then how are you not the retarded one? Why would you keep replying over and over to someone saying they are retarded if you yourself weren't retarded? Doesn't make sense to look at this thread almost 5000 times to tell someone to fuck off. It's like the story of the kid who everyone thought was retarded, so they gave him the choice to take a nickel or a dime. If he chooses the nickel, they come back the next day, and if he chooses the dime, they never come back. This story was made around the 40s, so you can get some perspective. (protip: the "retard" knowingly picked the nickel until the kids were out of money) |

hah just skimming through the thread, I never thought I'd see you use such a quote, confidence in your beliefs seemed to consistently lead to verbally attacking the guy you were arguing with over the years, I'm glad you don't see it that way now man |

From Of Mice and Men wiki page
| the title is taken from Robert Burns' poem "To a Mouse", which read: "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft agley." |
So the title is taken from an old poem, The story has nothing to do with the poem, just the title.
I get the impression that you have very little knowledge on anything and you just quickly google shit after people post and try to connect the dots on what google gives you to produce a somewhat coherent response. Have you even heard of Of Mice and Men or did you just wikipedia it after it was mentioned and then drop a random piece of trivia (that happened to be wrong)? |
