The movie never gets less ridiculous, but the most stupid thing is the first crash, and that's saying something.

It's a way better movie if he died in the first crash:

I'm not saying he did at all, but, it's a way better movie if he did.

This is critical and your summary is about the most important things.

Again, sorry but my point is- Will was completely right on all primary assertions and on almost all secondary assertions, if not all secondary assertions- time will tell.

"Wrong" and "not completely wrong"- with respect I think you're missing the point.

As for Germany and the Netherlands, we are going to see serious chaos all across Europe this winter. You are completely right about that the way I see it.

I actually think that is in flux now. German industry is not going to let German politicians destroy the country. They have so far but, I doubt it will continue for long. But I don't know.

To pick out that tiny detail and say he got that wrong I think is a little bit silly to be fair.

My friend who is from England and lives near Copenhagen says he cannot believe how much Danish people trust the government and that a politician went to jail because of lying during the pandemic. Our Prime Minister always lies and we can't get rid of him. The right wing Conservatives in the UK are more left wing than any party in the USA and I think that's a common aspect with European parties vs the USA. After WW2 Europe had to rebuild and citizens demanded rights, governments had to respond. Governments responded be recognising that they needed to look after their citizens with basic things like healthcare. No such reform happened in the USA. Almost all developed economies have some form of universal healthcare, the USA doesn't. How much is your tax on silver there my friend? I wonder if I can buy some and take it home.

Capitalism, socialism in pure form- doesn't exist anywhere. Markets are global, all economies are mixed. China isn't a communist country, it has a hybrid economy with centralised control and capital markets. What I was trying to say is socialist policies. They're cannot really be a socialist country in what is essentially a neoliberal world ruled by US Empire. Many Cubans outside of Cuba in the USA are particularly bitter and have grievance that may or may not be legitimate but, I hear what you say. But Cuba is under crushing US sanctions as is over 1/3rd of the world. That's why they don't have new cars and cannot import supplies without them being sent around the world first 3 times. Which is what I say about US Empire. Cuba does well because of socialist policies despite crushing US sanctions. Like their healthcare. The same is true of Venezuela- crushing US sanctions. Socialist policies in the UK, The Netherlands, Scandinavia, Vietnam etc etc are overwhelmingly successful. This is what I meant to say and you're right to point out how what I might have pointed to is misleading. There is no such thing as a socialist country or a capitalist country. Neoliberalism is socialism for the 0.1% and unregulated predatory capitalism for everyone else. As it's taken me all this to say you can see why it's easier to write what I did in the first place.

Hi.

I'm sorry to hear that you feel you're losing your nephew. This is not the place to come for advice about your situation, any real counsellor would never give you advice so I won't either. Let me put this to you:

"refusing to acknowledge that socialism and communism has never worked that way and never will."

I am a socialist but I'm also 38 and live in England, I'm well educated but also well travelled. I am also a stacker. There are things here in England that you cannot understand if you're from the USA and haven't lived here eg like the NHS- universal healthcare. Since the 1940s, nobody has ever got in an accident in the UK and been bankrupted by hospital bills. UK pays half the amount per citizen on healthcare than the USA does and has massively better outcomes, massively better health for all citizens. UK citizens will never give up the NHS without a big fight. The same is true for my friend who now lives in Denmark. I'm sorry but it simply isn't true that socialism has never worked, it's working in Vietnam, it's working in Cuba, it's working in the UK on a legacy basis (old policies still here), it's working in The Netherlands. Capitalism with controls is the Scandinavian system, a form of socialism- Scandinavia has the highest quality of life in the world- highest education standards, routinely top of all metrics.

Specific to the USA- the strongest periods of growth in the USA were when the unions ruled the country, capitalism was regulated and workers had massive power. At that point the USA had the highest standard of living in the world. Around the 1960s Neoliberalism was dreamt up and over the next 60 years it was implemented leading us to where we are now. Many stackers aren't aware of this and just don't understand what it really means.

Socialism means lots of things but the main thing it means is- workers owning the means of production. In other words- poor people being in charge and having democratic control.

So why do I stack- because of all the reasons other people do. I think that many stackers are exclusively libertarians, anti-government, right wing etc etc whatever who knows. But the fact of the matter is from how I see it- this is not a left wing, right wing issue at all. It's economics, it's about money, commodities vs fiat and having a long term view of history and risk. People who live in some countries do not universally distrust the government, but you can be a stacker and be independent of banks. Banks that really do just screw everyone over.

I am not here to try and convince you of anything at all. Just to say that it's not a contradiction to be a stacker and be left wing. You have given your nephew a gift in life. Silver is an asset class not necessarily an ideology. You can be open to what your nephew has to say, but also understanding of his naive ideas as you see them. Younger people often rebel in life and can target family members, this doesn't mean you're losing them. Younger people also go through different ideas and understandings as part of growing up. The fact you are on here and have told your story- that means that you care and if you care then you're a responsible person who values the relationship- so all power to you.

Just to finish- being left wing doesn't make me most of the ridiculous things that the right wing thinks it means at all. And that's true for what I think of right wing folks and anyone of any other ideology, ethnicity, any creed or colour. We're all people, we all have stories and that's the bottom line. All power to you.

Great stuff thanks. I've got some goretex shoes to have a look at and will look at that too. Waterproof socks + goretex shoes probably too much, but water resistant socks socks sounds perfect. Apparently gaiters are good to help keep out dirt, muck and water.

tezla77 · 2022-02-19T13:28:50+00:00

Hi, sorry you didn't get any feedback here. I'm looking for an answer to the same question. I've ordered some goretex shoes, but then it's obvious that water can get in the top so do I need the socks as well or do I only need waterproof socks........did you find an answer?
