The majority of USA currency in circulation is circulating abroad. It is America's biggest export at this stage. The last thing you want to do is call it in, at least not before all the appropriate people convert their Federal Reserve banknotes into diamonds and are keeping them in little bags they're wearing around their necks.

Finally these companies can sell their products anywhere. If you do not like coke, do not drink it, the african laborer will gladly take ypur place. If you don't buy and they can't sell anywhere then the company can go eat crow. What gives you the god given right to x or y product? Its the definition of an entitlement mindset. That the gov is doing it for corporations is the ultimate rationalization of your mindset. You are basically questioning the fundamental tenets of capitalism having benefitted in its busom for decades. Sad.
You travel and monger today purely because you are from a country that has succeeded in capitalism.

Any honest individual would agree this is a bipartisan screw job. Trump is certainly not doing anything to help, but this thing has been going on well before him.

It isn't who is the president that is the problem. They have all done horrific crap! The problem is the whole system.
First, eliminate all political parties and let politicians fend for themselves as individuals. Next, eliminate all campaign contributions and any candidate or politician accepting any money from any source outside of the Government will be charged with treason. Finally the government will provide free advertising distributed in equal proportion on a television channel running only political ads 24 hours a day and also offer the same service on all social media platforms and a website. If a person wants to become a politician but still can't afford the campaign they can anonymously crowd fund through the government run website that is providing the free advertising. The money can only be used to cover expenses related to the campaign such as offices, phone lines, hotels and venues, which will be reimbursed from their crowd funding accounts when the government is presented with receipts. Any additional money after the campaign goes back to the government to help pay for the free advertising and other services.
News is a bit more difficult, the problem is money. We need to create tax funded Newspapers and Television news stations that are run by publicly elected officials that also face treason if they have income from "any" other source but the government. Being a politician or a government official should not be a money making venture it should be for the purpose of making the world a better place. The other news media can do what they like but the only news the people can trust will be the tax funded news outlets and all employees will be scrutinized and face treason if they are caught accepting money or lying about the news. The tax funded news media will be 100% transparent and not worry about who is the first to report the news. Tax funded news will encourage and protect whistleblowers and offer rewards for convictions related to information provided by whistleblowers.
26 Trillion in national debt in the US solved in 30 days. Tell people To transfer all their money into private banks then after 30 days close all central banks and sister banks. Collect all the cash from the people and give them new money printed directly by the US government at an equal rate. Then return all the money printed by the federal reserve back to the federal reserve. Any outstanding debt offer the world bank repayment over 1000 years at 0% interest rate. If the World Bank refuses declare war on the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.
Wow politics is sooo easy!
Master Monger for President!

Posts: 3264Bottom line. People will vote to protect and / or to further their interests. That is the bottom line. The majority of Electoral College delegates will elect the winner. That is the system.
I personally believe the silent majority will come out and re-elect Trump. Trump voters will not be shouted down. Most Americans are appalled at the lawlessness rioters and do not support defunding the police. Rioters, gutless mayors and governors have made it easier to vote for Trump than for Biden.
The thought Biden will be beholden to Bernie's far left agenda is enough to scare enough voters over to Trump's side. The lesser of two evils.
I doubt if there will ever be a Boy Scout as a presidential candidate. Voting will always be for the lesser of two evils.

Following is from Nate Silver's Five thirty Eight, recognized by most professional in the polling business as independent and reliable. I recommend visiting the site, lots of interesting stats.
"That, in a nutshell, is why the FiveThirtyEight presidential election forecast, which we launched today, still has Trump with a 29 percent chance of winning the Electoral College, despite his current deficit in the polls. This is considerably higher than some other forecasts, which put Trump's chances at around 10 percent."

I do agree - It will NOT be a landslide for Biden, as most pundits are predicting.
