Lol! Bull shit!
Nice try tho. ๐
I was wondering who I'm dealing with and I read some of your comments. You admitted in one that your autistic. You wrote: "As an autistic person who struggles...".
Yeah... you're in the field... as a patient!
Again, my comment is backed by plenty of medical science. I know, because I am studying this, and it's super easy to find just doing a Google search. There are a ton of academic papers on this.
Here is just one: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0092656602005056
Whoever you are, you're a shining example of what is bad about social media, and you're exactly the kind of person that I was talking about in this tread. May you never hold any power over anyone.
Ah... so I struck a nerve. Maybe I found one in the wild?
This isn't personal to you, so don't take offense. If you do belong to this group, I'm sorry to say, you're not well. If you don't, I don't know why you're trying to deny that this is real science. It's not hard to verify for anyone who does simple research. Heck, you could go to a public library and find plenty of scientific sources.
For everyone else reading this, Cluster B:ย A person with this type has difficulties regulating their emotions and behavior. Others may consider their behavior dramatic, emotional, or erratic. There are four cluster B disorders: antisocial, borderline, histrionic, and narcissistic personality disorders.
You can find sources everywhere, but here is where I grabbed the above: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320508#:~:text=Cluster%20B%3A%20A%20person%20with,histrionic%2C%20and%20narcissistic%20personality%20disorders.
This is the dark triad I was talking about. I believe that people with this disorder should never be allowed to hold any positions of power whatsoever. They have proven to be too dangerous. If you read about the symptoms, it's pretty easy to understand why.
I'm describing Cluster B personality disorders. The science is there and it's real. All these people should never be in ANY positions of power or over people. That is my point. They are too dangerous.
Lol... you just proved my point. I never said it was a fact. It would be hard to quantify, but it could be done.
You're right. You just proved my point. It's my opinion. ๐
Yes for sure. The biggest threat is what happens if the US is no longer able to pay its debt, or it can't raise their debt ceiling and everything falling apart? The Fed's continued printing of money is worrying.
When they start to tell us there's no problem, there's a problem. The US dollar is in decline as the world currency. Too much debt by the US is making other countries nervous to hold too much of their dollars.
I'm not going to get dragged into creating a new government framework with you. I'll leave that to the political scientists. What I'm saying is that we need limits on power. Limits on income existed before 1980 and were dismantled in Regan's trickle-down economic policy. Taxes used to be really high for the ultra rich after WWII to around the late 1970s. Limits existed in other forms too like anti monopoly laws, more regulation and market oversight. What I'm suggesting is simply taking those that once existed and codifying those things into a charter, like the Magna Carta did for kings, so that they can't be repealed by changing governments. It's an idea, not naive at all.
Greater equality is essential for well functioning societies and well functioning economies. It's good for everyone, even the ultra rich... they just forgot it. Read Ray Dalio's The Changing World Order and he explains this quite well. The man is a billionaire himself, and he advocates for a redistribution of wealth and greater economic equality. His research echos much of what is tough in history: inequality always breads social unrest and political upheaval. It's what revolutions are made from.
Supergovernment? Putting words into people's mouths, I see.
We limited the power of monarchs, why would it be wrong to do that for all powerful people and entities? I say that we need to do it for exactly the same reasons. Limits to power is healthy for everyone, even the super rich. My logic holds true. Does yours?
But I like your idea of a world government because, you know why?... we need to work together rather than against each other. Let's end zero sum game theory.
I love this response. ๐
For those of us who are not American, what does it mean that they were returned?
