Fallen Hamprince posted:a widespread belief that having a giant military means you by definition must have a good economy would explain a whole lot about american politics I mean, technically you do, to maintain said military at least. But good economy =/= all citizens actually getting to reap the benefits of it materially. Recent years have shown that an increasingly amount of people simply aren't considered to be important to 'the economy', and are infinitely less important than 'the economy' as far as everyone in charge is concerned.

steinrokkan posted:i'm the country with breadlines that has great economy You might not like what they spent it on, but it's pretty hard to argue that the Soviet Union wasn't an industrial giant. Hell, America had breadlines too, not to mention our current inability to get clean drinking water to people, but I don't see anyone doubting our economy.

steinrokkan posted:hm, makes sense. so when we look at american healthcare, from the fact that it consumes more resources and money than any other healthcare system in the world, we can conclude that it is the greatest healthcare system ever Merely that consuming greater resources requires a bigger economic input and therefore the economy must be greater as a result. Quality has little to do with economy. Efficiency doesn't matter in this case, I wouldn't call China efficient but they produce a shitload and that shitload necessarily implies an expanding economy. steinrokkan posted:also lol at americans comparing themselves to the eastern block, gently caress off and learn some perspective ffs Edit: oh I think you meant the breadlines bit. Sorry, but I'm not wrong,breadlines have existed in both countries so merely saying "but breadlines!" Isn't an argument. Also, for the record, I have lived well bellow the poverty line to point of being legally homeless for a short while so I think I've already got enough perspective on capital, thanks.

Best thing to come out of brexit is that we're restarting the troubles completely by accident Since the current government is in coalition with a gang of murdering psychopaths, maybe you Americans can start arming the opposing scumbags again and we'll do this one right
