Germany didn’t need all those lands. Look at the lands Germany had before World War II even without the Anschluss and the Sudetenland. The idea that Germany had been deprived of its deserved civilizational grandeur because Germany lacked resources and population on a continental scale was a misreading of the world geopolitical situation. Underlying World War I was another misreading of the world geopolitical situation. That time, the German nationalists thought that Germany had been deprived of its deserved civilizational grandeur because it had been late in unifying and therefore had suffered a late start in the race for worldwide empire and the creation of a worldwide linguistic empire along the along the line of the British and French empire.

This was nonsense, of course. In fact, at the time World War I broke out, the German language was repsected and studied worldwide and Germany itself was regarded, man-for-man and pound-for-pound, as possibly the greatest country the world had ever seen.

If anyone is tempted to blame the German embrace of the continental scale of resources theory on grandiose reasoning and delusional propensities of the fomer corporal, remember that former corporal was a corporal when German was under the sway of the idea of the empire as the source of grandeur. Hitler was the designated front man for the German nationalist elite.

Germany didn’t need those lands. If World War II had not happened Germany today would be in the running to be considered the greatest nation in the world without those lands and the reign of the former corporal and the Nazi party would be regarded as just another among many of the authoritian regimes which arose during the debacle of the post-Great War era and dismissed./

Isn’t every country in the world which possesses land on a continental scale kind of a mess today with or without the comcomitant population? China. Brazil. Australia. Canada. The United States. Russia. No, Germany didn’t need it.

“This is a forum and not a doctoral thesis.”

Wrote a guy, who decided to write a thesis on his own stupidity in every possible aspect, but who failed in the first attempt 🙂

Johnson, you’re so funny when you’re angry. Almost as funny as when you write these idiotic claims of yours. Like this one: “2.5 week special operation is going well”.

You’re confusing me with the likes of you. Were I not Christian, I’d happily watch how you Khazars and the Mongols kill each other.

Exactly as I thought – typical commie baseless allegations, just to change the topic.

I’m sorry you have no brain at all – the discussion was about Nepal and what people (Tibetans or not) can do there. You idiotically alleged that I made an opinion about Tibet. Your idiotic opinions – your problem. Just have some balls to own your mistakes.

wojtek: “It’s so cute that our local dumb red little CCP troll thinks CCP agents are allowed to operate in Nepal”

dumblittleredtroll: “Just as Russian agents would not be allowed to berate shopowners in Vinius
CCP agents would not be allowed to berate shopowners in Kathmandu.”

Your chinesium translator is malfunctioning again – it replaced operate with berate 🙂

But that’s a standard defect. Let’s recall the really idiotic quotes:

“Try going into a shop in Lithuania and ask for a Russian flag.”
“Russian agents would not be allowed to operate in Vilnius.”

🙂

I start to think that little_red_dot was actually supposed to be little_red_bot 🙂

Genocide, son.

You know this and I know this. But indeed the absolute majority of the Anglosaxons belong to one of the 2 camps: “Hitler and nobody else is responsible for WW2”, or “somebody else is responsible for WW2, but only one person, at most two”.

And so we have quotes like this one, from our Host:

German Intelligence learned of this massive bribery of British parliamentarians, and passed the information along to Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, who was horrified to discover the corrupt motives of his fierce political opponents, but apparently remained too much of a gentlemen to have them arrested and prosecuted

Talk about a complete and total naivety.

This belongs together with the claims that “Germans couldn’t have committed all these crimes in WW2, because they are too much of a gentlemen“.

I am curious what makes Anglosaxons so blind?

I have always been of the opinion that people judge others primarily through the lens of their own limitations.

Thank you for proving it for me 🙂

When the dispute with Poland over Danzig …

Poland had no control over Gdańsk. It only had a post office and a railroad with some small storage for visiting Polish ships. And Polish embassies were required by the treaties to provide assistance to FSD citizens around the world.

FSD was created and controlled by the League of Nations, so primarily by Brits, French and Italians. It was in their interest to maintain the status quo and so they did.

I’m afraid you missed the main point:

And the simple (and yet very complex) reality is that WW2 happened because too many people wanted it to happen.

W.W. died some 15 years earlier.

I think there must have been some misunderstanding. When I wrote: “It never ceases to amaze me that intelligent, bah, brilliant people …”, in no way it was addressed at you. Based on your sample writing above, you’re just a simple neonazi, who does not need any books at all. In fact, I’m sure if any one makes its way to you, you burn them whenever your HOA Karen is not looking. Unless it’s Mein Kampf, of course 🙂

The only difference is that Trump tries to sedate his enemies with phony “peace” BS so that he can attempt to stab them in the back and avoid the risks of a face-to-face fight.

If that were true, that’d be actually clever. So I doubt that.

It never ceases to amaze me that intelligent, bah, brilliant people can be watching the events in the world surrounding us right now, seeing how it tethers on the brink of WW3, and how complicated and complex the overall situation is, and yet the same people will be searching for a naive, simplistic, all-in-one, “shortcut” explanation for why WW2 happened.

Interestingly, in their search for a short answer on whom to blame for WW2, they’re never interested in the most obvious evil, clearly and undoubtedly responsible for the start of the war, namely Hitler (it needs to be clearly spelled out on this forum, I’m afraid). Instead they need like the “second worst culprit”, or in fact often the “third worst”, because Stalin for many of them is also not acceptable, as “too obvious” of a choice.

And so we have this ongoing quest for whom is it that we could blame for starting WW2, as long as his name does not start with H or S? Churchill? Chamberlain? Brits overall? FDR? Jews in general? Rothschilds in particular? Poles? Gdańsk? etc etc

And the simple (and yet very complex) reality is that WW2 happened because too many people wanted it to happen. Yes, Hitler wanted a war, Stalin wanted a war, Brits wanted a war (and not just Churchill), FDR wanted a war, Jews wanted a war, even enough of stupid Polish “colonels” wanted a war. It’s just that each one of them wanted a different war then the one that actually happened. Hitler wanted to conquer Poland, and then be happy and have peace until the next one. Stalin wanted to conquer the whole world. Brits wanted Hitler to fight with Stalin. Jews wanted Palestine. FDR wanted to replace the British empire. Interestingly I have no clue what is it that Polish colonels really wanted. But it’s safe to say that none of them got what they really were hoping for.

It’s actually way easier to list those who didn’t want another world war: Hacha didn’t want a war, Swiss didn’t want a war, Swedes didn’t want a war, Franco didn’t want another war. As far as everyone else – I’m not so sure.

So in many aspects all these books listed above are various variants of “Reasons for WW2 for Dummies”. Those here who are of Marxist inclination, will probably say that although each of these books taken individually is a failure when it comes to a correct diagnosis of the reasons of WW2, taken together, quantity will turn into quality. But I seriously doubt this.

Why did Eastern European nations that bordered the Soviet Union ally with Hitler?

I actually would say that it is quite the opposite – they were more afraid of hitler and nazis.
Generally speaking, you avoid attacking that what you fear the most. Fear being the operative word.

After John Bolton’s disastrous stint in the first Trump Administration, promises were made …

Anyone who believed these promises after the RNC is naive and should primary blame themselves, if they voted for Trump.

You are also not going to change the mind of the two individuals you are arguing with.
You can do what you want but my suggestion would be to just walk away ….

Thanks for your suggestion Mark. It’s been suggested to me before.
But I certainly won’t be walking away.

If a thread is an old one, or one hot off the press, I will continue as I’ve done in the past.
You see, whether it’s a UR thread dealing with the Mossad/ZOG orchestrated 9/11 False Flag, the ZOG conjured fable of the Holohoax, the Anthropogenic Global Warming fraud or whatever, I am WELL AWARE that I won’t be changing the minds of the hard core cult members that have been brainwashed by the official narrative concocted by Malignant International Jewry.

My purpose here is twofold:
1) To embarrass and hand out almighty shellackings to the fools in UR that are propagating falsehoods.

I do this with a deluge of incontestable facts that make it clear to all impartial observers, that those propagating these myths (like the dumb Polack Woy-chek in the WWII threads), have no leg to stand on.
You see, the penny has not dropped for young Woy-chek, that Poland sided with the Jewish financiers during WWII.
It is these inbred Talmudic misfits that emerged as the CLEAR VICTORS of that calamitous event.

2) It is to EDUCATE those that are sitting on the fence.
In other words, there are many (for example, in the case of the Holohoax or the JFK coup d’etat), who more or less believe what’s been drummed into their heads about these matters from the Jewish controlled western media/public education system/major book publishing outlets, but who simultaneously smell a rat.
(In that they know that the official story does not add up).

What I’m saying is that these people, while not necessarily being critical thinkers, are nonetheless honest people who are prepared to change their minds when confronted with a tsunami of verified evidence.

Summary: For every individual that leaves a comment, I suspect that there are multiples more that read the comments and the article in UR, but leave no comment of their own.
I know that from first hand experience because I WAS ONE SUCH INDIVIDUAL.
I had been reading the UR for over a decade, but never posted a comment prior to 2021.

You see, I was well aware that comments could be posted below You Tube videos and in other formats, and I read the odd one from time to time.
But I never thought much of them. I never thought many people read them.
So I never bothered posting comments there or anywhere else.

But when I started reading the comments in this webzine, I noticed something different.
The UR allowed for participants to include links to articles, to include videos, photos and what not.
Moreover, unlike other venues where commenters posted inane nonsense for the most part, UR had some genuine KNOWLEDGEABLE PEOPLE that were providing excellent output*.

(*Whilst many of the articles are indeed very informative and good reading, I find that the comments are EVEN BETTER in most instances – often several pay grades above the article itself.
Nowhere is this more true than in the WWII and Holohoax articles, where the WORLD CLASS historical researcher JOHN WEAR leads the way).

He consistently swats down the Jewish liars like Incitatus (aka Incite-us), Patrick McNally and the rest.
I thought I knew a thing or two about WWII after many thousands of hours of research utilising the findings of the best Not-Beholden-to-ZOG historians and other researchers on the planet (like David Irving and A.J.P Taylor, to name just two).

But I’ve been floored by the sheer depth and breadth of John Wear’s knowledge on this matter.
I have learnt much from him over several years and I will always be thankful.
We are so lucky to have here in UR a man of John Wear’s stature, who patiently responds to all questions asked of him and NEVER shies away from answering – he truly is a colossus.

Yet I’m shocked time and again to see NO-NOTHING-NITWITS (like Incitatus, Woy-chek, Poupon Marx and several others), actually insulting this great man.
John Wear’s masterpiece ‘Germany’s War’, is available to read for FREE here in UR:
https://www.unz.com/book/john_wear__germanys-war/

And WHY do you think that is UR readers?
Answer: It’s because Ron UNZ paid John Wear for the privilege of allowing his book to be posted here.

And that was the best money Ron Unz ever spent. I will always be grateful to you Mr Unz, for doing that.
This is a book which, had we lived in a just world, would’ve been an INTERNATIONAL BEST SELLER.
But Malignant International Jewry have gone out of their way to ensure that book sales are throttled, that John’s tour de force gets no publicity.

Meanwhile, returning to where I was before (on the matter of the quality of the those participating in the comments section), there are plenty of Jewish trolls, sayan and ADL operatives (like Patrick ‘Shlomo’ McNally, John’s Johnson, Mean Joo Joo, Curvanus, Incitatus – aka Incactus – and the rest, peddling their endless stream of lies in this webzine).

I don’t believe that people like Woy-chek, Avery, Odyssey and others of their ilk, are Jews themselves.
I also don’t believe (although I could be wrong), that they’re working in cahoots with Organised Jewry to post B.S with malice aforethought.

They are, I believe, just USEFUL IDIOTS that have been indoctrinated since birth to believe that the Armenians were on the side of the righteous in WWII by fighting in the Red Army (in the case of Avery), that the Poles were likewise (in the case of the ignorant Woy-chek), or that the Serbs were the righteous ones (Odyssey).

But the fact remains nevertheless, that both the Poles and the Serbs** (or at least their corrupt leadership), accepted the 30 shekels of silver on offer from Malignant International Jewry, so that they could fight and die in great number so as to advance the agenda of the Jewish financiers in the Square Mile that controlled then, as they do today, the entirety of the western financial and political systems.
(**In the case of the Serbs, they were DOUBLY STUPID – seeing as they sided with ZOG in both World Wars).

Woy-chek in particular blows a fuse whenever I bring that up.
Because he knows in his heart that the Poles sided with EVIL in WWII, by stooping to the dictates of the Anglo-Zionist empire in murdering tens of thousands of ethnic Germans that lived inside the illegally acquired Polish territory.

That’s right, TENS of THOUSANDS of innocent German civilians murdered by the Poles, and multiples more of that were brutalised, raped, had their EYES GOUGED OUT.
Yes UR readers, when it comes to bestial acts BEFORE hostilities had even broken out, the Poles were among the worst in history.

Truly a despicable people.
But little Woy-chek (named after Wojciech Jaruzelski, the last Communist leader of Poland – a hero of his Marxist parents and that community/shit-hole shtetl in Poland where Woy-chek was born and raised), still shows not contrition for the dastardly deeds of his countrymen.

But little Woy-chek (named after Wojciech Jaruzelski, the last Communist leader of Poland – a hero of his Marxist parents and that community/shit-hole shtetl in Poland where Woy-chek was born and raised), still shows not contrition for the dastardly deeds of his countrymen.

How to tell everyone that your arse still hurts without using these exact words 🙂

Had Visser been Polish, Belarusian, Russian or something similar there would have been no question of any clemency. The Germans would have probably killed a whole host of hostages in retaliation, as was their practice. Stalin and his Russians destroyed Hitler and his superior beings even after being surprise attacked. This deification of Hitler verges on occult thinking, no longer grounded in reality. What’s the point?

Naziboi, you’re dumber than most of stupid neonazis I’ve seen here. And that says something.

I am giving you data from an established American recruiting company, which knows first hand what the salaries are:

https://www.glassdoor.com/Salary/Ford-Motor-Company-UAW-Member-Salaries-E263_D_KO19,29.htm

And in response you’re pasting a link to some defunct Canadian paper about some average auto worker??? Canadian? 🙂

At least now we know who you are: a spawn of these banderist beasts that escaped their due for what they’ve done during the war. That explains a lot – including mixing nazism with commie traits.

So, speaking of your commie-nazi dreams, here is some information:

“The $5-a-day rate was about half pay and half bonus. The bonus came with character requirements and was enforced by the Socialization Organization. This was a committee that would visit the employees’ homes to ensure that they were doing things the “American way.” They were supposed to avoid social ills such as gambling and drinking … Women were not eligible for the bonus unless they were single and supporting the family. Also, men were not eligible if their wives worked outside the home.”

Yeap, definitely a nazi banderist.

This simple anecdote serves to illustrate that Hitler was not the crazed, bloodthirsty monster he is made out to be in the prevailing narrative

Neonazis must be the dumbest people on Earth.

“General Scherff, approached with the letter from my mother and explained the story. Hitler looked up and said, “A friend of yours, eh?” and Hitler himself crossed out “Death Penalty” and wrote “15 years Zuchthaus” instead.’

And here’s who that family friend was:

“Karl Walter Scherff (1 November 1898 – 24 May 1945) was a German army officer and military historian with the rank of Generalmajor, who was appointed by Adolf Hitler to the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht in May 1942 to compile the history of the war, as the Führer’s Commissioner for the Writing of Military History.”

But even if by some miracle the family didn’t have high level nazi connections, to think that one act of a pardon, which we know were few and only to people with personal connections to highest level nazi circles, to claim that this somehow annihilates millions of innocent victims of german nazism?

Only dumb neonazis can come up with something so stupid.

I can’t think of anything dumber than a neonazi. And our local truth denier does his best to prove it every time 🙂

Did you know, nazi dumbo, that according to glassdoor, 25th percentile earnings at Ford for UAW workers stand at ~135K, and 75th percentile is ~250K per year? That does not include generous health package worth nearly 20K, 10% of salary contribution going to pension system every year, life and disability insurance, tuition assistance of 8K per year, etc etc.

Overall looks like this year in gold, UAW employees at Ford make nearly the same on average as it was 100 years ago.

Interestingly, 2 years ago they made twice as much as 100 years ago.

No wonder your arse is hurting so badly, naziboy 🙂

You’re even stupider than the dumb little red CCP troll.

But feel free to show me where I said anything like that.

Otherwise, it’s nothing more than a primitive attempt to turn the focus away from the moronic claims of the dumb little red CCP troll.

Russian agents would not be allowed to operate in Vilnius.

It’s so cute that our local dumb red little CCP troll thinks CCP agents are allowed to operate in Nepal 🙂

You’re dumber than even dumb troll norms allow 🙂

First of all I feel very sorry for you – there comes a time in life, when pain becomes unbearable. And talking about “pain meds addiction” is like talking about “food addiction”. Definitely criminal. Fully agreed.

But I do disagree somewhat with the “more money” part.

Namely, if you look at “money” in terms of gold, then the American GDP per capita, measured in ounces of gold, rather than paper dollars, has not changed much over the last 100 years. In fact, today it is lower than it was 100 years ago. So relatively to population, it is just not true that there is “more money available”. Money is the same or less.

But what I think is happening is that a much bigger share of that money goes towards these necessities, like healthcare, education, housing, etc. Simply speaking I think “they” learned how to squeeze more out of an average person, both through personal expenses, and also tapping into people’s taxes though approved government spending.

It’s a great pity Irving wasn’t interested in the more recent history. I’m sure that using his “methods”, he’d be able to go through the little of what was left of commie records and would “prove” that there was no communist totalitarian murderous regime to be found in Poland or anywhere else.

One thing however that we can’t deny him was his discovery of a market of – mostly anglosaxon – gullible neonazi wannabies. That’s his most important and undeniable discovery.

PS. Interestingly I must question the title – holocaust establishment seems to be doing quite well, whereas Irving not so much, for quite a while now.

If they sell USSR flags in Vilnius, then they are like to get a hard time from local youths.

Dumb little red CCP troll still is confused about the right analogy?

Here it is, again, moron:

A guys walking in to a Chechen shop in Lithuania and ordering a Chechen flag, whose owner then is being harassed by Russian agents.

The is the correct analogy to a Tibat shop selling Tibetan flags in Nepal..
Not the CCP trolling bs you’re trying to sell us here.

I told you already – if the Western values of freedom are too unpleasant for you, avoid forums like this, and stay inside your commie cage.

Mark, you confuse facts with opinions! So why should I care about any opinion you steal from somebody else, if you do not understand the difference between a fact and an opinion?

Read the definitions I gave you, and learn the difference. Then write. Not the other way around.

No, you messed up the definitions so you could lie.

Don’t complain about these definitions to me – I copied them from a dictionary 🙂

Here are links for you – to an original English dictionary as opposed to an imperfect American copy:

https://www.oed.com/search/dictionary/?scope=Entries&q=fact

https://www.oed.com/search/dictionary/?scope=Entries&q=opinion

I am curious – this ailment you displayed right above, confusing simple words and their meaning, is this the reason you hate doctors?

You obviously don’t understand what “dictate” means.

Well, we Poles are not good with little red dumb dictators.

But you are obviously an expert, trying to dictate everyone in the whole World what they can or cannot do. You are – simply speaking – a dumb little red CCP troll.

Specifically you moron think you can dictate which flags Tibetans in Nepal can sell. What a dumbass you are.

Brad, as always you have much to contribute and it’s hard to argue against the bulk of what you wrote.
But it is clear that you’ve been brainwashed by the ZOG media and the ZOG controlled public education system about the benevolence of Gubmint and especially about FDR – America’s greatest TRAITOR.
So I will now enlighten you.

With every President, no matter how bad, we can always dig deep and eventually find some thing he did that has marginal benefit for the American citizenry.
But on all the substantive issues, FDR was a disaster for America – and even more so for the rest of the world.
There are not enough hours in the day to itemise all the damaging things FDR did.
So I’ll just list some of the biggies off the top of my head:

1) He involved America in a war (WWII) THAT AMERICA HAD NO BUSINESS BEING INVOLVED IN.

2) FDR forced Japan into a corner (that would’ve seen her economy grind to halt and completely collapse – he cut off Japan’s oil and supply of other commodities), which left her no option other than the Pearl Harbour attack.
(Most importantly of all, FDR KNEW that his actions would lead to war).

3) I don’t have the exact figure off the top of my head, but something of the order of HALF A MILLION U.S SOLDIERS WERE KILLED DURING WWII – and it was ALL FOR EFF’N NOTHING.

4) Over and above the half million GI’s killed, multiples more were disfigured, crippled, lost limbs or PTSD’ed. Simply put, FDR fucked up a lot of lives.

5) And something that a lot of people don’t know (because they’ve only read the ZOG published history books and listened to the ZOG controlled History Channel), is that FDR and the British warmongers were DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR WAR IN EUROPE BREAKING OUT IN 1939.

The fact is that Germany sought peaceful coexistence with Poland.
But FDR and some prominent British oligarchs were having none of it.
The corrupt Polish leaders accepted the 30 shekels of silver on offer from the Anglo-Zionist empire in return for ESCALATING THE PROVOCATIONS AGAINST THE ETHNIC GERMANS living in Polish territory.
(Read my comment # 86 and see for yourself the heinous acts the Polacks committed).

6) Even after reports reached Hitler that large numbers of Germans were being murdered and brutalised, Hitler’s response was measured.
He asked them politely to desist and refused to take Germany to war with the dumb Poles.

7) But the Poles would not listen. All the while FDR was saying to the Poles:
‘Don’t worry, we’ve got your back’. FDR would say: ‘If Germany ever lifted a finger against you, both the U.S and Great Britain would intervene on your side’.

And the dumb Poles believed these empty promises.
Because after Germany attacked (after they pleaded constantly with the Poles to stop the atrocities and exhausted every avenue for peace), the U.S and Gross Britain did NOTHING.

8) FDR inherited would would’ve been a short/sharp recession in 1933 when he was inaugurated, and turned it into a prolonged Great Depression that engulfed the world and did not end until 1946.
He did this by introducing his disastrous New Deal – which not only completely failed, but made things much, MUCH worse.

9) FDR’s administration was filled from top to bottom with Jews – like no other administration, either before or since.
If you wish, I can send you a list of all those Jews (there are scores of them), and the position they occupied.

10) The two Jews that absolutely pulled all the strings and dictated FDR’s complete conduct of the war, were the Jewish financier Bernard Baruch and his Jewish Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr.
That fact is that FDR read from a script dictated to him by Malignant International Jewry.
Summary: The three worst Presidents in America’s history were FDR, LBJ (America’s first Jewish Prez) and Woodrow Wilson – with Abe Lincoln closely behind.

It’s blue sky to the rest. And it can easily be argued that FDR was the worst of the lot.
He is the standout Piece Of Shit (POS) in the history of the republic.

Lastly, you mentioned this:

there have been a number of government agencies that have been extremely beneficial.
They have been responsible for the passage of LAWS which have made travel by air and rail much safer ….

For the most part, this is INCORRECT.
Gubmint has done PRECIOUS LITTLE to improve the lives of its citizenry. This is true for nearly all countries – but is ESPECIALLY TRUE for the various U.S Gubmints over the years.

Now, I’m not saying that there is absolutely no piece of legislation or law enacted by the U.S (or any other Gubmint) in history which didn’t provide some benefit.
After all, with all the countless trillions that the U.S Gubmint has forcibly stolen from taxpayers over the years and countless millions of parasitic Gubmint workers that never did an eff’n thing for anyone, of course one would expect that SOME Gubmint employees among them did something good and that there were at least a handful of laws that were beneficial.

At the end of the day many people will say that Gubmint made laws that made certain crimes illegal, and of course that was a good thing.
But let’s face it, most laws are just COMMON SENSE.
They were universal principles handed down from the scriptures. Like:

i) Thou Shall not kill
ii) Thou Shall not steal
iii) Thou Shall not bear false witness , etc.

Did we really need a Big Bloated Gubmint to tell us that?
We (as in the members of a community), could’ve gotten together and drafted our own code of ethics and lived in accordance with those rules.

People think that it’s because of Gubmint that we have safe products to buy.
They think that, absent Gubmint, many of us would be lying bleeding to death in a ditch by the side of the road with our LIMBS BLOWN OFF (as a result of unregulated electronic devices that exploded in our faces).
Brad, CAN YOU SEE HOW EFF’N STUPID THAT MINDSET IS?

Think about it. If I manufacture a TV or a computer monitor, a toaster or microwave oven, DO YOU REALLY THINK MY BUSINESS WILL LAST LONG if I make a device that injures a consumer and/or blows one of their limbs off?
That particular manufacturer’s name will be DIRT in no time when word gets around and they’ll go bankrupt in no time.
So, to prevent that, MANUFACTURER’S GO OUT OF THEIR WAY to test their products and make sure they’re safe.

Also Brad, you’ve told me about your experiences with various employers and how they exploited you. Well, the fact is that there are subset of pre-school teachers, of nurses, of butchers, bakers and candlestick makers that are also unscrupulous.
In EVERY PROFESSION there will be some that rip you off.

But the VAST MAJORITY of employers do not exploit their workers. I KNOW this to be true.
And the reasoning is very simple:

1) Employers are COMPETING for the best workers.
I’ve employed numerous people in my life and it’s very hard to get good workers.
You’d be surprised at the number of workers I’ve encountered that could not even meet minimal standards. Like:

1) Showing up punctually for work
2) That didn’t come to work stoned
3) That didn’t take off excessive ‘sick’ days (I’ve caught out one or two who were sunning themselves at the beach after calling in early in the morning and saying they were on ‘death’s door’ and couldn’t get out of bed).

And here is further proof that most employer’s do NOT exploit their employees.
The percentage figures I’m about to give you are those for Australia (but I’ve checked the numbers for America and they’re almost identical):

4) In Australia (and the U.S) there are minimum wage laws.
But the statistics show that IN EXCESS of 95% of workers get well above the minimum wage.

5) But according to some whiners, employers ALWAYS pay the minimum amount that they are required to as dictated by laws made by the ‘wise overlords’ in Gubmint.
If so, my question to you is: WHY THE EFF isn’t everyone being paid the minimum wage?

Answer: People with certain skill sets or even unskilled workers that are very productive, WILL NEVER WORK for minimum wage.
They know they can get more. They know that employers will pay a premium as an incentive to headhunt the best workers.

Conclusion: If you’re a dumb kid that just left high school and you have no work ethic, of course your productivity is very low.
You may only provide $5 worth of productivity to your employer with that bad attitude.
The onus is on THAT worker to change his ways, to improve his skill set.

And if that worker improves to the extent that he offers his employer $50/hour of productivity, the employer would be a fool to only pay him $25/hour – because he runs the risk that said employee will depart and seek out greener pastures somewhere else where he’s valued.

Many people cite Henry Ford and how over 100 years ago he doubled the wages of his workers to $5/day – which was a princely sum for a worker in those days.

But Henry Ford did NOT do that out of altruism. He did that because SKILLED WORKERS WERE LEAVING – workers that took much time and effort to train in the first place.
You see, working on a production line was tedious and monotonous.
That type of work was messing with their sanity. So many went elsewhere and worked for lesser wages, but were compensated with job satisfaction.

That’s how the world works. You told me you worked in a state where the economy was depressed and jobs were hard to come by.
Well, workers MUST GO WHERE THE JOBS ARE.
If there are no opportunities in your state (or even in your country), you should consider relocating.

At the end of the day, to the extent that air travel is safe, to the extent that cars have better tyres with improves grip (compared to the cross ply radials that were the norm in the 1960’s), to the extent that cars have ABS, disc brakes with huge calipers that stop your car in a fraction of the time (and much more), these things occurred WITHOUT GUBMINT INTERVENTION.

These things occurred as a byproduct of improved technologies.
They were implemented by the aircraft and car manufacturers because THEY WERE SELLING POINTS.
Consumers demanded safer products and so the manufacturers GAVE THEM WHAT THEY WANTED.

But sneaky Gubmints that we know they are, they can see a new technology that is about to be adopted on the horizon. So they FRONT RUN and introduce legislation to make it compulsory.
Then they TAKE THE CREDIT.
Brad, can you see that’s how Gubmint works?

The vast bulk of Gubmint and the parasites it employees are WORTHLESS.
The ONLY reason many people gravitate towards Gubmint, is because they were FAILURES IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR.

In Gubmint they know they’ll get lavish wages and even more lavish retirement perks – something they would never achieve in the private sector because they’d be paid in accordance with their productivity there.
Gubmint meanwhile, can easily afford to pay high wages – because the Gubmint department chiefs are not paying out of their own pockets. The money comes from taxpayers that have been fleeced.

No, opinions.

This is the source of your issues – in your religious fanaticism you completely messed up the definitions.

Stupid little red CCP troll continues to dictate Tibetan shop owners in Nepal which Tibetan flags they can display 🙂

This must be the new CCP definition of the word moron 🙂

I wonder, are you going next to tell Indians not to use sanskrit swastika? 🙂
I guess after that the moron will tell us not to use white and red in our flag 🙂

With that low level of CCP trolling, things must not be good in the CCP land.

Ah, the local neonazi still can’t get over the fact that his favorite Goebbels propaganda listed – what was it exactly? – 19 “rapes or ATTEMPTED rapes” committed by a Polish guy on a German woman during a 3 year period, in an area with well over a million of people at that time.
So how many of them were attempted, dumb nazi? 18?

The 19th must be you, cause obviously your arse still hurts 🙂

Either way, if that’s all you have to say about the childish supply demand ideas in healthcare, that’s also a proof of something, I guess.

Brad, in other words you proved you are an expert on the World we live in and on the people surrounding us. Unsurprisingly this is all one needs.

I grew up in a world, where money was nothing, worthless, so the most important job benefit was the respect others had for you and for your services. As a youth I remember wondering why civil engineers had to sit under the bridge they designed during load testing, or why chemical engineers had to smoke a cigarette, when the new gas pipeline was opened, or why an electrical engineer had to grab with his bare hand an exposed piece of wiring, after shutting down the trafo-station for work.

These people commanded respect.
Same was true for doctors and nurses, who didn’t make fortunes and often were harassed for a bunch of flowers or a bottle of something stronger, which they received as a sign of gratitude.

Now we live in a world ruled by lawyers and various faceless organizations, not by personal responsibility. The difference perhaps has a precise monetary value. But we certainly lost something along the way.

I don’t know what’s the answer. But it seems to me that these problems are only part of a bigger picture, of an increasingly atomized society, weird notions of what constitutes a family, or worse – outright war on religion and family, all these modern “online interactions”, social media, etc, etc.

And I know that certainly the neonazi truth denier here doesn’t have answers for anything, and Mark has some illusions, but he cannot reconcile them with reality. Not for the lack of trying.

So the only thing left for us is leading by example 🙂

You continue to engage in obfuscation here by arguing about number of doctors or whether their incomes increased.

Yes, let’s repeat that: I am engaging in obfuscation by stating FACTS.
FACTS, which contradict your religious beliefs.
No wonder your only resort is to lie, lie and lie.

I am sure when I stop wasting time here you will consider yourself the “winner” because in your delusional mind I could not handle your feeble arguments.

Son, I’m already a loser for having to read all this religious production of yours. I am by now under under no illusion that you will be able to react to facts with anything sensible, beyond the childish libertarian nonsense.

And to think you had such an easy – all you had to do was to:

tell me, how do you imagine to convince these big shot doctors, who run the medical cartel in the US, to earn less and spread the wealth more?

But who am I to fight with religious fanatics?

Dumb little red CCP troll, not knowing what is freedom claims to know if the topic is changed. To prove his limitations on the topic of freedom, the dumb little red CCP troll is going to decide which flag a Tibetan store owner in Nepal can sell, and which one he cannot, and which countries “Westerners” can visit, and when 🙂

Normally I’d say you’re not China, troll, but obviously you are. Probably in some troll camp in occupied Bod.

Avoid “Western” websites, little red CCP troll, if freedom bothers you.

More galloping nonsense from galloping kike. Well, repetition is foundation of eductaion, so here it comes:

Since the old galloping kike is begging for it again, here it is:

1. Old Galloping Kike tried to claim “the entire issue under discussion has been the Command HQ on the line of contact on June22”, which exposed all of his stupidity.

2. The whole issue started with P.M.’s comment #456, where he claimed that “the inventory showed that 10,540 operable tanks were in the Western Defense Districts.”

3. Bonehead galloping kike replied to that in comment #467, demonstrating immediately your ignorance, by stating that Clark “identifies the Western Military District reconstituted on June 23 as Western Front had 6 Mech. Corps under command.”

Kike’s errors are elementary and are derived from your inability to read simple texts in English with a semblance of understanding:
– you mistakenly interpreted “Western Defense Districts”, which in Russian nomenclature is a term used to describe jointly 5 MDs, with a single one: “Western Military District” – you can’t tell singular form plural;
– you also made a mistake, because in 1941 there was no “Western Military District” – there was “Western Special military district”.

4. You also demanded that P.M. correct your errors by stating: “Maybe you can clear up the confusion your description of the inventory of tanks in the Russian military districts creates”

5. In further correspondence you admit in comment #572 to your mess: “It evidently escaped you that I identified the Western Military Districts as only one of four “fronts”” – which proves that you still had no clue about the mistakes you made.

6. This is when P.M. provided you with an original source which provides a detailed number of tanks in the so called “ЗАПАДНЫЕ ВОЕННЫЕ ОКРУГА” – aka Western military districts 🙂

7. In turn, old galloping lying kike further demonstrated his inability to read by stating in comment #650 that “The text you cite fails to address directly any of he points I made”, which is an outright lie, because
– it is a lie – the cited Russian text addresses every point you tried to make,,
– but also because you later admitted in comment #884 that you can’t read Russian – what a facepalm moment 🙂

8. In comments #836 P.M. corrected your mistake

9. But you insisted on being wrong and in comment #839 you incorrectly stated that “The following military districts were n the line of contact on June 22, 2941: Leningrad MD renamed Northern Front; Baltic MD renamed Northwestern Front; Western MD renamed Western Front, and Kiev MD renamed Southwestern Front as detailed in Clark The Russian German Conflict 1941-1945.”

10. To which P.M. finished you off with a direct quote from your source: “By the middle of May 1941 there were nearly 170 divisions, or over five sevenths of the country’s total armed strength, outside the 1939 frontiers. They were distributed in the five “military districts” running from north to south as “Leningrad,” “Baltic,” “Western,” “Kiev,” and “Odessa” commands”.

11. After this you unsuccessfully tried to change the narrative in comment #905, pathetically replying to your own post so that nobody can read it, that: “the entire issue under discussion has been the Command HQ on the line of contact on June22”.

I’m glad you keep begging for me to repeat all this again. It really shows what a galloping moron you are. This is the only response you will receive. Your other appeals are of no interest to me 🙂

“And I replied that if doctors are getting paid more then the cost of those hospital services will be higher.”

That’s false. According to your religious beliefs, doctors are getting paid more because the demand for their services increases. Not the other way around. Strike 1.

Also, the increase in demand does not match at all with increase in salaries that your religious beliefs dictate. Strike 2.

“Between 1960 and 2015 the number of primary care doctors dropped by fifty percent.”

False. Number of primary care providers per capita increased approx. 2-fold. Strike 3.

And you’re out.

Not going to even bother reading the rest of your nonsense. The first 1.5 sentences and 3 lies. This is enough son. Get you act together or get lost.

Dumb little red Chinese troll is sinking deeper and deeper with more moronic excuses.

Clearly not understanding what is freedom, s/he’s complaining that a “Westerner” is in Nepal 🙂
As if Chinese trolls are the ones who can decide who goes where 🙂
Maybe in China, little red dumb buddy, not in the so called “West”.

Get used to it.

And if you can’t, avoid “Western” websites promoting freedom – clearly you’re allergic to it, you dumb little red moron.

If the number of doctors went up three times and the demand went up three times then doctors incomes would remain the same.

Oi, it is me (and almost every researcher) who claims that doctors’ incomes remained largely the same.
You believe that doctors’ incomes rose 3-fold over inflation. So you’ve done yourself again.
And, interestingly, I showed you that demand for hospital services rose much slower.

So your theories once again end up in the same place.
And your only answer is more bs distracting away from the important data and facts.

So when you keep repeating that the number of doctors tripled as if that by itself is of any importance

By itself no. But together with your “beliefs” it totally destroys the libertarian fairy tale you’re pushing here.

When you label a set of beliefs held by a person “quasi-religious”

I am very sorry and apologize for hurting your feelings. I should have never called your beliefs “quasi-religious”. That’s inappropriate and wrong of me. I apologize.

In view of the complete lack of any logic there, I should have outright called them religious beliefs. You’re a religious fanatic.

This view of others as inferiors when they are not is typical of people with authoritarian personality types such as yourself.

Don’t judge me through your own limitations – I do not equate you with your beliefs. You are doing it to yourself. Sounds like a you problem.

Traveling to neighboring Nepal

I was in Nepal in the 90s. There were Western hippies everywhere. Even in the capital Kathmandu, kids with dirty faces and torn clothes tried to sell a joint rolled up in aluminium foil to every foreigner. There was cow dung plastered to the sides of buildings, even temples to dry for cooking fuel. People were desperately poor.

The West had no interest in improving the lot of Nepalese then. Now you have a Yank who goes to Nepal after a desperate and impoverished people rise up in communist led revolution, and asks for a flag of an entity that symbolises opposition to communism?

Then insinuates that the Chinese were bullying the Nepalese?

Trump is not the only Yank who is ham fisted in dealing with foreign cultures. I see it is a general condition with Americans.

I appreciate the effort to present the region. Unless i go there myself I can’t tell what the situation really is. Traveling to neighboring Nepal (before the US led coup), I however saw how a Tibetan shop owner was harassed by a Chinese guy who seemed to work for the then communist government because I bought a Tibetan flag in his shop.

Why do Yanks make an issue of things like this? You go into a troubled region at a time when tensions are high, stick your foot into situations you don’t understand, and cast judgement on based on the reaction.

Try going into a shop in Lithuania and ask for a Russian flag.
Try going into a shop in Korea during an anti-Japanese tensions and ask for a Japanese flag.
Try going to a black neighborhood after wearing a White Lives Matter t-shirt.

Populated by people like that, there is a reason why America is reviled across the world.

This is a comment in the running for the Most Stupid Comment Ever prize. And that says a lot in view of the dozens of moronic nazi commenters here.

Let’s recap: A guy in Nepal is buying a Tibetan flag from a Tibetan shop whose owner is then harassed by a CCP agent.

Comparing it to a guy “going into a shop in Lithuania and ask for a Russian flag” is beyond moronic and worthy only of a dumb little red Chinese troll.

If one wants to search for real analogies, here are a few:

A guys walking in to a Chechen shop in Lithuania and ordering a Chechen flag, whose owner then is being harassed by Russian agents.

Or a guy asking for Ryukyu flag in Korea during anti-Japanese tensions.

These are the analogous situations. And they are as normal and as expected as anything. Nobody would even blink seeing those.

Only totalitarian Chinese …. let’s call them minds, for the lack of a better word – can think there is something wrong or provocative with any of the above situations.

On the black ghetto example I won’t even comment, since this is even more stupid than the author of the above ridiculous post.

You almost immediately started insulting me, calling my beliefs trivialities, ridiculous and half-cooked etc.

You see Mark, where I come from there is a huge difference between attacking a person and attacking her/his quasi-religious beliefs.

I did attack your dogmas. You took it personally and attacked me.
That’s the difference. So stop whining hypocritically about me attacking you, when you are the culprit.
Because to me it means that you’re asking to be treated the same way that you treat me.

You have not explained why

Enough with these childish attempts at distraction from the main fact that your simplistic ideological supply-demand dogmas do not work in real life as you imagine. That’s not gonna work.
So let’s get to the bottom of the libertarian nonsense you’re peddling here:

I am talking about the income of each individual doctor tripling. The changes in number of doctors is irrelevant here.

vs

No, I want the requirements loosened a little so the number of doctors keeps up with increases in population and increases in demand

When you admit that you contradict yourself, we can have a sensible discussion.
Until then, you’re just throwing around nonsensical, self-contradictory statements, that have nothing to do with reality. The reality in which the number of providers increased per capita 3-fold since 1960.

My opinion is …

Mark, you’re a brainwashed member of a cult, you don’t have opinions – you have dogmas, which you are desperately trying to defend against the real world, which says:

If you believe that doctors’ salaries since 1960 rose 3-fold over inflation, then you yourself just disproved your childish supply-demand theory, because per capita rate of providers rose 3-fold during that same time.

🙂

My, you are certainly undergoing a major meltdown here calling me freak, imbecile, moronic etc, in this comment section.

I love it when whining hypocritical snowflakes resort to accusing others of what they started 🙂

Mark G. comment #58: “Only a moron believes that.”
Mark G. comment #58: “I labeled you a troll.”

Obviously these were requests for me to treat you the same way, so go whine where somebody cares.

There’s nobody in the Trump administration that is an “anti-Zionist”.

I believe it’s Laura Loomer’s job to ensure that.

It’s not difficult to verify that I didn’t write commie-controlled Singapore.
I wrote commie-controlled HK.
I described Singapore rather differently.

What do you know about what Dr Ron Paul has or hasn’t said over the years?

I know he didn’t write that there should be a competition for doctors, because – unlike you – he’s not a neonazi moron.

I’ve watched the near entirety of the two thousand (2000) plus episodes of The Ron Paul Liberty Report over the last decade, in addition to having read/watched many hundreds of hours of Dr Ron Paul articles, interviews and speeches that he’s made over the last 50 years.

Was that because of an order from your gauleiter? 🙂

In that case you won’t have any problem citing where and when Dr. Paul advocated for creation of a competion to medical doctors.

I know …

Naziboi is bragging 🙂

“There are only four, rather than five, influential cultural systems in the world: Chinese, Indian, Greek and Islam.”

Wrote a Brazilian journalist in English on an English language site. Yeah, right.

Nah.
Like the Native Americans before the European White Americans, people come for better lives, mostly the results of 1) more land and natural resources per capita and/or 2) better government.

The pre European natives came here for a better life? But there wasn’t any “better” life here as there wasn’t any Western European civilization here to have a “better life.” Lowest IQ comment I’ve ever seen here at the UNZ and there have been many many whoppers!

Stephen Miller is an anti Zionist, anti Marxist Jew who hates democrats and the left. That’s the difference.

You are an imbecile who can’t even understand a short text in your allegedly native tongue.

Medical licensing is for doctors!
Not for shamans, witches, or some whining morons.

My claim stands:

Dr. Paul, you bonehead, never suggested that there should be “competition for doctors”.

In that short chapter he mostly complains about insurance and pharma. His only suggestions regarding doctors are to loosen licensing requirements and have more med schools.

None qualifies as your boneheaded suggestion to ” eliminates competition for the doctors.”

Do you need me to quote?
But what guarantees do I have that you functional analphabet will understand what is written? You haven’t demonstrated that ability so far.

Mentally focused on your boneheaded childish whining about doctors making a lot of money?
Stop your whining and use some arguments, maybe I’ll focus.

Some are more libertarian than others

Yet none is libertarian, you ideological freak.

Hong Kong has still largely been allowed

Oh yes, this is such a strong statement about the allegedly most libertarian country in the world – STILL LARGELY BEEN ALLOWED 🙂
Could you make it any worse? 🙂

You said the Tabarrok graph is an outlier and provided a link to the white coat investor website. That website has the same identical graph.

Yes, it does – because if you actually check the rest of the data, you will see that Tabarrok piece tells a completely different story, which in fact in contradicted by all the other listed works. And many more.
But for that one needs to be able to read short texts with a semblance of understanding them, which you are completely incapable of.

Still being an evasive little weasel I see …

Yes you are – you have not addressed any of the substantiated data I provided other than with your moronic boneheaded complaints about doctors.
It’s getting old and boring.

Johnson, we’ve already established that you’re a Khazar troll, so don’t try to teach anyone here English grammar.

Instead read the whole text you linked:

In passive voice constructions, the past participle “sunk” is combined with a form of the verb “to be.”

Even I know that “Ukraine doesn’t have a Navy and sunk most of the Black Sea fleet.” is incorrect.
Just like every other claim you have made on this forum 🙂

“inflation since 1960”

I already told you doctor incomes have been adjusted for inflation in the link I provided. Adjusted for inflation, doctor incomes have tripled since 1960.

If you have a different opinion than me about whose data is more accurate, then it is just my opinion versus your opinion. I am not going to just repeat my opinion over and over while listening to you repeat your opinion over and over. That is a waste of my time.

I question your figures on hospitalizations going from 20 million annually to 35 million today. Population has almost doubled and average age is older. Even if that is the case, if the patients are being treated by doctors who are paid triple of what they were in 1960 costs of treatment will be higher. This is pretty obvious but you are just unable to grasp this. What is wrong with you?

I think I will go with Taborrak when it comes to doctor incomes. Having a minority opinion does not mean he is wrong. The powerful medical cartel and its propagandists have an incentive to engage in obfuscation about how the medical cartel bribes politicians to restrict doctor supply in order to boost doctor incomes. I prefer more objective sources of information.

We would be better off ditching the current overly expensive corrupt system and going back to what we did in 1960. Average life expectancy was seventy then while doctor incomes were a third of what they are now and overall medical spending was six percent of GDP instead of the sixteen percent now.

The corrupt medical cartel will not continue to have its way because in the future we will not be able to afford current levels of medical spending. By 2037 Medicare will be insolvent, Social Security will be insolvent, the national debt will be sixty trillion dollars and we will be paying two to three trillion dollars yearly in interest payments on that debt. The money will not be there for overinflated doctor incomes dishonestly achieved.

I am going to separate this fragment below, because it is a prime example that shows how moronic your positions are:

The reason I know Tabarrok is right is because you have been engaging in evasion about the fact that the corrupt medical cartel is buying political influence with bribes.

1. You combine two completely independent from each other things:
– me ignoring your idiotically childish distractions,
– invalidity of the suspect data you found on someone’s blog.

2. To really prove your idiocy, you are not just claiming that there is a relationship between these completely unrelated facts – you claim there is a causal relationship! 🙂

3. To push the absurd to the limit, one fact is about verifiable data, yet, your argument is not about validity of the data.

I mean you really are a special case, Mark.
In fact you are a quasi-religious freak.

Meltdown? No I am not angry at all. I am making fun of you and laughing at you. It is always funny how pompous gas bags like you are oblivious that others see you for the buffoons you are. I guess I should have used smile emojis like a dopey teenage girl to make it obvious I was sitting here laughing at you.

Of course, the phrase “suspect data” is just your opinion. The reason I know Tabarrok is right is because you have been engaging in evasion about the fact that the corrupt medical cartel is buying political influence with bribes. The fact you are doing that demonstrates you are a dishonest person of low moral character so, therefore, it is anything you say that is “suspect”.

You yourself say libertarians are just plain silly. So when will you be moving to the non-libertarian paradise of Venezuela to get away from us silly libertarians? I checked the Cato rankings of least libertarian countries and the non-libertarian paradise of Zimbabwe ranks number two so you could buy a plane ticket for there instead. Looking at the bottom ranking countries for economic freedom, I notice they are all poor. I am sure that is just a coincidence, though, right?

Meltdown? No I am not angry at all.

Of course not.

meltdown: a rapid or disastrous decline or collapse

You yourself say libertarians are just plain silly.

And you prove it with every single post, e.g., here:

So when will you be moving to the non-libertarian paradise of Venezuela to get away from us silly libertarians?

Would you like me to count logical errors in that one short statement? 🙂

1) Why would your silliness have any impact on me?
2) Since there is no libertarian country in the World, why would I need to move, even if libertarian silliness had any effect on me?
3) Why would Venezuela have to be the country to move to, if there is no libertarian country in the World.

In fact the highest ranking countries in the silly libertarian ranking are commie-controlled HK and Singapore, where they will beat you up for a whole range of nonviolent misdemeanors.

4) Why thinking that libertarianism is silly means I need to seek countries with the least amount of economic freedom, b/c that is actually what is ranked, not how libertarian any country is?

As I said – complete mental meltdown.

And all that is caused by, let’s remind you:

The fact that you cornered yourself with your silly ideological theories and suspect data, completely ignoring reality.

You’re not a libertarian, you’re an ideological freak.
