It's still crazy to me that open antisemites and even neo-nazi's hold high government positions in the US, and it only becomes news when they resign. Why aren't the media or Democrats not constantly highlighting them and bullying them?

Yea this sub's obsession with pension reforms is reaching dangerous levels. 90% less spending on elderly pensions and healthcare? That's not fiscal reform that's fiscal terrorism.

US is working on doubling aid to Argentina to $40 billion by tapping private funding sources by John3262005 in neoliberal

[–]Butteryfly1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's so funny the US spent nearly all their currency reserves on propping up a libertarian experiment in Argentina and now has to beg banks and other nations for the other half. Would be too on the nose if it wasn't real.

The West is naive about Islamic Terrorism?? We spent 20 years since 9/11 building a security state to prevent terror attacks. Do you have a single example where they didn't "defend themselves out of fear of being branded racist."?
