  6. It's comical how incompetent, weak, and compromised all the leaders of the West are. The Legion of Doom barely has to fart and the former Western powers start flailing. Of course, the mealy mouthed, chubby masses can't think or want to ask why we are here, so this is what we get.

  11. ‘Wall from which Banksy’s Ibex goat was removed at Kew Bridge has been daubed with paint’ A critique against the commodification and abduction of art by the investors who have captured the art market?

  16. The story of how Mr. Trump came to intervene in Honduran politics and align himself with a foreign terrorist organization is essential for understanding the world he is trying to build.... His actions may seem contradictory. But there is a coherent logic to them: They expand territorial power for a class of transnational elites who believe they’re above the law.

  36. No one ever said Americans were intelligent people.

    "As I dug into the research, something far more important than the specific dollar estimate of an average family’s loss emerged: Trump’s economic policies have put the nation on a long-term path of decline, in terms of gross domestic product, employment, capital investment and wage growth."

  41. Private Equity are evil SOBs. They are the termites of capitalism.

    "In the paper industry, private equity has often followed a familiar playbook: Buy a distressed asset on the cheap and load it with debt, some of which is used to pay the private equity firm. Then, in a few years, the private equity firm sells the company or declares bankruptcy."

  46. A short overview from a lefty stance on why all our trade deals have lead to Canadian deindustrialization, shrinking the middle class, and reducing economic diversity. Free Trade is corporatism: movement of capital and goods, but constraining people, labour, and government to defend national interests. The Conservatives and Liberals have been selling us out for a century.

  51. "High-frequency traders pay for an advanced look at [market] information so they are in an unfair position. They know the prices before the ordinary investors they are trading against.’ bbc.com/news/business-32246655

    Taking a larger snapshot, the boom and bust bubble market is suspect. Foreknowledge as in insider trading paves corruption, and the tech sector and others before it are deliberately pumped and dumped to cover debt and provide finance. In short, deregulatory markets are rigged like a casino. The house being owned by the ultra rich oligarchs and plutocrats, is there to preserve and protect their totalitarian world order and its programme of ecocide! #RiggedMarkets #EcocideEmpire #CasinoCapital #HFT
