For now.

We won't be able to inflate our way out of the debt because government spending is tied to inflation.

Tax the rich all you want, you won't raise enough money to balance the budget, let alone pay for all the additional spending that Sanders et al. wants.

It would certainly help. And how does that additional spending compare to the defense budget, or the cost of going to war?

You're right, and I want to slap myself because I didn't even notice the obvious at first. I need my coffee.

Could have really used this a couple days ago. I had to record a video an assignment, but due to lack of global hotkeys on OBS with wayland, I had to start and stop the video on the OBS GUI. I tried to figure out ffmpeg but I was too tired and it was getting close to the deadline so I spent some time learning how to to do it with kdenlive.

Very much agree. They're not "creators", they are prostitutes, as are porn-stars.

Israel is a model nation.


A model for global terrorism and control.


Israel is the only developed country with sustainable demographics. Nothing else really matters. They will exist in 100 years, and their enemies and haters won't.


Do you have any better ideas or is it your position that evil dictators get to rule forever?


The Iranian people overthrow their government and establish what they want?

My point is that an outside force coming in will help the current regime and/or the ideas behind it. Even if the current regime falls, democratic or pro-Western ideas in Iran will be seen as aligned with the invading force and rejected by many people who might otherwise be open to them.

Is there anyone who likes being invaded by a foreign power, ever?


The British in 1688 (Glorious Revolution, when they were invaded by the Dutch).


Things were starting to come undone naturally then we decided to 3rd party the whole thing

Do you think the people fighting ICE in the streets of Minneapolis would welcome a joint Chinese+North Korean decapitation strike on Washington and cruise missiles flying over Portland?


Provide aid to the local population and provide support to grassroots resistance. Things do not need to be flashy to be effective


>Do you have any better ideas or is it your position that evil dictators get to rule forever?

If president Trump doesn't declare martial law, start a civil war, military coup or change the constitution of the USA, he will stop ruling in 3 years. We can wait that long.


how about a negotiating a peace deal between the Israel and Iran wherein they both agree to give up nuclear weapons and allow for IAEA inspections


the problem is that the bots aren't trained on 4chan so they aren't funny.


I had these guy's names in my head at the same time yesterday and was brainstorming a joke...
