I'm frothing at the mouth because it's distorted, making an easy comparison by visuals impossible. The numbers don't match the size of the pies

I swear, the rich are truly buying their own bullshit at this point. They seem to genuinely think that the peasants enjoy being fucked as hard as absolutely possible. They have made these arguments repeatedly about many horrible practices they do.

Finance leaders try to claim that frontrunning users purchases and banking the difference, is somehow beneficial to the customer.

They are all fucking deranged.

See paragraph 2.

Hmm... How shall we win these votes from the lower class? Should we listen to their complaints and plights? Should we come up with ideas that resonate with the populace and excites them so they actually want to come out to vote for us rather than it being a feeling of obligation?

No. Let's not do any of that, let's just take bribes from the rich and do whatever they say. Then we can blame the left for being uninspired by our outrageous greed!

You realize there is a difference between 'popular' and 'implemented,' right?

Popular opinion has virtually no impact on policy, unless you're rich. This article describes the relationship.

“Not only do ordinary citizens not have uniquely substantial power over policy decisions, they have little or no independent influence on policy at all."

Why did you bring up China? Wasn't involved in the conversation, doesn't qualify as a communist nation, hasn't claimed to be for a while actually.

Sure China has done some impressive things but those two "weak-ass" arguments you brought up are neither weak nor small. China is an authoritarian state that abuses its people. You could unfortunately say that about many counties though.

I'd argue a good 50% deserves exactly what this guy got. I don't feel bad for pieces of garbage (re: any cop) and don't care what you think about it. They can all eat shit.

Cops? No, never.

The libertarian mind cannot comprehend this.

I find it amusing you think Israel's goal is to rescue the hostages. They really don't give a shit. It's an excuse to cleanse the land for future settlement. Simple as that.

A magical place... Thank you for gifting us all that mental image.

Honestly, this brings me comfort. Now I know for sure those parasites are dead, and not just on an island after faking their deaths and will sleep better. :)
