I don't think Venezuela is that easily explained.

Lift sanctions on that nation and stop attacking them, and see what they can do?

The BIG FEAR of our government is that, maybe, a nation can make a socialist system work - and if that happens, eyes turn inward... The US is sabotaging Venezuela as much as it possibly can. It does the same to Cuba. I'm not saying that I believe in a communist socialist system, I'm saying this nation does its damnedest to make certain neither work. As a result, we don't know if they CAN work or not.

But the fact that they can be attacked, that might be an indication they cannot work, but the fact that the US is now a failing nation - this might indicate these attacks are short lived and end up destroying the attacking nation. Time will tell.

Nothing. They are completely FUBARd. Commie shit never worked anywhere. Because it can't.

Yeah, the whole the "US keeps Cuba down" worked in the Cold War, maybe. It hasn't applied in about 25 years, and Venezuela it never applied. All those countries trade with Europe, Russia, China, Iran, the Middle East, etc.

I mean if John Deere won't sell Tractors to Cuba or Venezuela, Jinma will. Or Mahindra for that matter. Both are multi billion dollar enterprises, and there are many other manufacturers, some of them quite large. All those Ford F-150 parts are made in China, plenty of knock offs. China and Russia still need Sugar, and India and China needs oil. Cuban cigars really are something special that can't be readily imitated. Venezuela is a big beef producer, as well as the obvious oil.

Cuba and Venezuela have access to 75% of world trade and plenty of substitute goods and services. Cuba in particular gets a lot of tourism, both regular and medical, from Europe.

Let me be very clear.

I'm not drawing a conclusion. Perhaps Cuba is fucked no matter if we have sanctions on them or not. If they are fucked regardless, what is the point of sanctions?

The US engages in trade with China after all - THEY are communist.

I have a inherent distrust of my government, a healthy one, so healthy it may be unhealthy. All I see is hypocrisy. The reason the US has sanctions on Cuba, in my opinion, is a bunch of criminal families that are in our government got fucked over by the revolution there. I don't believe it's over an ideological divide and frankly, the people that got fucked over who want sanctions - they are just mafia assholes anyhow. We, ourselves, are dealing with that shit now.

That's a true statement.

The government promotes virus fear via the media to keep power.

And China is an asshoe 10x worse than Cuba. Cubans don't harvest Uighur organs.
BUT: I don't see how a communist system can work. So let them self-destruct, no need for sanctions. Or if there are sanctions, there should be some logic as in if China behaves worse than Cuba, then sanction China.

We should have sanctions on China too. The Uighurs, Hong Kong, violating Montreal Agreement on CFCs, etc.

Sanctions on China make 10000000 times more sense. Cuba is not an economic competitor to US.

CONWAY, AR—Ten-year-old Billy Smurth’s birthday party went from fun to frightening when U.S. Secretary of Treasury Janet Yellen burst out of his birthday cake to take his birthday money.

“No! Don’t take off your—” Billy’s dad yelled before realizing with overwhelming relief that Yellen was only there as part of her efforts to tax Billy's unrealized birthday money.

"EQUITY!!!!" screeched the frosting-covered Yellen as she rummaged through birthday cards and pocketed the cash while Billy and his friends screamed in terror. Billy’s mom confronted Yellen and demanded she leave, but was forced to back away after Yellen tried gnawing off her finger to get to her diamond wedding ring.

Janet Yellen finally crashed out a window and disappeared after Billy’s dad convinced her there was a libertarian with a walk-in safe living next door.

Moments later, the front door burst open and two IRS agents entered to issue Billy an itemized tax bill for his birthday presents.

HunterTits says

Enabling Act of 1933

THE ENABLING ACT
The Enabling Act allowed the Reich government to issue laws without the consent of Germany’s parliament, laying the foundation for the complete Nazification of German society. The law was passed on March 23, 1933, and published the following day. Its full name was the “Law to Remedy the Distress of the People and the Reich.”

KEY FACTS
1 Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party used intimidation and persecution to ensure the passage of the law. They prevented all 81 Communists and 26 of the 120 Social Democrats from taking their seats, detaining them in Nazi-controlled camps.

2 German judges did not challenge the law. They viewed Hitler's government as legitimate and continued to regard themselves as state servants who owed him their allegiance and support.

3 The Enabling Act became the cornerstone of Hitler's dictatorship.

Not just vote, but SANE VOTE! Trump cracks me up.

In the future based parents will beat their kids ass for learning something in school, or getting a A in Social Science.

The Sun just cut a massive fart in our direction, which means that all conservative and anti Biden regime commentary will mysteriously disappear from the airwaves. The Sun is a KommieKunt Democrat!

The intelligence community overthrew this nation last year. Maybe it's better if they become MORE incompetent.

This shit wouldn't be happening if they did their damned job and made certain that what we were voting for is what we were getting. The chickens are now coming home to roost on them. That's perfectly fine with me.

LOL! They're getting ready to go after Biden for his sexual assaults if he doesn't stop Durham. What did Q say? Watch Huma.

Dude, I wish I could have your hope.

I've not seen a fucking thing done in accountability within government since the Savings & Loan scandal, and I was 17 at the time.

Barr was supposed to clean shit up, he didn't. I hope you're right, that Durham isn't just running out the clock, but I've seen this done so many fucking times. Clinton should have been prosecuted, but Comey and Lynch protected her. Seth Rich was probably murdered by the DNC. Bush Jr. should have been impeached for lying us into the Iraq War. I have no belief at all, whatsoever, in anybody that gets a paycheck from the government.

I really hope I'm wrong. If I am wrong - you write me and I'll make any atonement you wish, up to $1,000. 1 grand is well worth to see accountability again within my lifetime. Got a favorite charity? If YOU are wrong, give a $10 bill to some homeless guy - and if you want, just offer to have a meal with him that you pay for, and ask for his story. Some of them are just down on their luck and will give you an understanding of how life can fuck you over if you're unlucky.

You have no idea how much I want to lose 1K. More than 1/2 the fuckers in our government should be in prison. I only dimly remember the country this once was.

If you like biking, I strongly suggest you look up Sheldon Brown

I checked out that Sheldon Brown link. I went to the section on drum brakes. I need to replace my rear Sturmey- Archer drum insert on the back wheel of my Blue Mountain bike, but I cannot find anyone anywhere who has the 70mm version in stock. Lots of 90mm, but I cannot use that. Drum brakes are great because they still work when it is raining or riding through some water.

I'm not particularly set on hopium, either, until proof positive, but exposing sexual antics is pretty much standard operating procedure now when they want to get rid of somebody, and they will be getting rid of Biden pretty soon. Female employees and interns are given a down low list of men in Congress who they should NEVER be alone with, and Biden was one of the most notorious. Forget about Hunter, they are covering up so much sex shit for Old Joe it isn't funny.
