What on Earth is going on in the world today? It's gone mad

One more thing... you do realise you've exposed yourself on this thread right? Your response to my challenge to make a contribution, exposes your utter lack of knowledge on the subject. The very fact you had to browse on the internet for a response was hilarious to me. Sadly I don't think you've quite realised yet what that reveals about you. For further explanation, that's why I was laughing at you. And it's why I wondered if you're a little kid. I'll say this once more, if you are a little kid, please let us know. I sincerely hate the idea of picking on an innocent. For now I'll just keep assuming you're the moron I think you are
As if your contributions were any better than Obsi's...... You jump on a good sounding idiocy or some stupid libtard gossip as the next big thing and then your predictions, or rather the stupid libtards' predictions and theories you jizzed over fail miserably just like you......

When someone posts something serious you pretend to skip the post that just dismantled your idiotic theories (or rather the latest libtard bullshit you fell in love with) and continue trolling Obsi.... You're just a lousy little troll Federberg and a stupid junkposter...... And a clueless monkey too, you consistently don't understand wtf is going on in the world, you can't think for yourself silly mug....... So stop bashing Obsi, actually he's right more often than you.... Also he's a correct person, he doesn't support destroyers like Antifa and other scum........

Just go Federberg and take some of those pity-snuggles from mrzz like Moxie, you need them.....

I think that's called projection dear boy! I like that you follow me around. It means that I must have pissed you off so much you can't let it go. It means I did what I wanted to do. So please don't stop. If you become indifferent to me, I don't know what I would do :lol6:

You can pretend that you aren’t angry as much as you want, but your effort is fruitless.

As for the rest, see above what Nekro said.

And i didn't even add you're a pathetic liar too, you already got busted for reading my posts after you said you blocked me, do you think all of the people here are complete idiots and they forgot your lie????

Oh wait, even your "friend" mrzz said something to the effect that you think he's a very stupid person.....

Do you even feel real friendship for anyone here Federberg? Or are you just a lying, trolling, attention-seeking scumbag?

You're taking me for someone really dumb, man...

You see, even your "friend" noticed you're taking him for someone really dumb.......

The truth is, people are not so dumb and everybody can see what a liar and blundering idiot you are.....

Someone gives you boots on the ground of a real world situation, and you're still just all about your own crap. What a bunch of privileged babies. SMH.

You’re an imbecile and a scumbag. There are imbeciles who are good people.

You have your own definition of capitalism and Britannica doesn’t. Britannica is an encyclopaedia and you know what encyclopaedias do. There is a consensus among scholars what is the definition and it’s different to yours.

It’s nonsense to say that the USA doesn’t have capitalism.

Here is the thing Obsi - I'm not disputing the Britannica Encylopedia's definition of Capitalism. After all, they should know... they've nearly gone bust on numerous occasions and dishonoured pension agreements with their own workers.

Now here is the thing with capitalism... it's inextricably linked with the free market. Market forces determine how you do... supply and demand, market forces etc....

Now the socialist perversion to this is that a lot of these organisations would have failed without government intervention... using taxpayers money to prop them up. That doesn't fit with the free market. Market forces actually determined that these were failed businesses.

So, in the UK for instance, some of the banks were bailed out and re-nationalised. They were re-nationalised with taxpayers money. Nekro said a bailout isn't any mark of a socialist policy... nationalising business actually is... The UK Government is the biggest shareholder in some of the UK banks now - such as the Royal Bank of Scotland and it was based on the "we're all in this together" mantra.

Nobody is arguing that this is socialism... just a socialist perversion on capitalism to rescue those who fucked up through outright greed.

Your post was good Moxie and it highlighted a lot of things that are wrong in the world. Trump's visit was pretty pathetic.

The next financial crash will likely see the end of Capitalism as we know it and it will make the 2008 GFC look like a picnic.

Most market techies, and I'm one of them, have been following the bull trend from its origins in March 2009 and the general view has been the end should happen any time from Q4 2017 to Q1 2019. Why the large range? Because from a technical perspective (using Elliott Wave Theory in my case) you have to constantly refine your analysis based on the shorter term dynamics. I can't wait to see how Trump spins that one. It's going to happen on his watch

I used to listen to Jim Rogers quite often around 2008... and he was adamant it should have been allowed to fail then.

It would have been so much safer mate. There are bubbles now that make what we had in 2008 look like child's play. Shadow banking globally is scary. And in China it's terrifying

I quote what @Federberg said in the post #760:

What we have now can no longer be called capitalism

It's a valid point, because real capitalism doesn't feature governments re-nationalising banks when they've failed... especially on the scale in how it was done.

So, I was right that the point of contention between me and you is definition of capitalism. According to your definition, capitalism doesn’t involve governments re-nationalising banks when they've failed. Your definition is different to what Britannica says.

I don't see any definition of capitalism being based on governments bringing failed business under state control.

Britannica says that we have capitalism now. Therefore, according to Britannica, your definition is wrong.

Sure the west is loosely based on a capitalist model, particularly the US... but a model that is failing on a scale where you can't really class it as true capitalism. It's a perverted version of it, which was the original discussion point.

Exactly, it wasn't a question of whether it still existed but to what extent.
