This is what happens when financiers instead of engineers run your industrial systems. They merge everything into a monopoly, offshore production and crapify the product. Then they screw workers who have safety concerns.

Boeing is effectively a state monopoly, responsible for all airline manufacturing and all safety regulation. Its production figures and accounting are fake, and its products are crap! 😘

Literally everything you were taught about the failed Soviet economy is true of America circa 2019.

Wow, this is so moving to hear a billionaire call for fixing capitalism.
I wonder what what his position is on Puerto Rico’s debt crisis and all the hedge funds profiteering from it.
Sorry, I’m being told something in my ear.

Oh no doubt it is for Warren. I am commenting on the quotes from operatives.

This is the sharp ideological divide I talk about among single payer supporters. I disagree as both a matter of policy and politics. Public hates how much we overspend on health care. If your plan doesn't really bring down spending the public won't be interested. twitter.com/awgaffney/stat…

Maybe it is. More likely Warren actually read the report and believes it revealed the need for impeachment proceedings. It's funny the rationale of thinking the rule of law is important is beyond the imagination of so many Dem operatives. twitter.com/jmartNYT/statu…

Jimmy Carter is saying it. But I shall relax now.

The U.S., he noted, has only enjoyed 16 years of peace in its 242-year history, making the country “the most warlike nation in the history of the world,” Carter said. This is, he said, because of America’s tendency to force other nations to “adopt our American principles.”

Also most of our military spending isn't going to war, it's going to baseline maintenance. Which would be much easier and cheaper if we still had a commercial manufacturing base.

Yes! Oppose those wars. They are bad for many reasons. But just because endless war in the ME is problematic doesn't mean China isn't a serious threat. It is, largely because of our foolish posture in the 1990s. But there we go.

Most Dem voters just want their guy on tv. They don’t care about anything.

China is a fascist state putting millions in concentration camps and exporting its model. Carter asserting he’s not worried about China becoming the dominant global power is naive in a dangerous way.

Conflating lots of issues. I’m taking issue with Carter’s broader frame of US as warlike when it’s a normal country. You are right the post-2001 US military posture is idiotic and cruel. China’s military and security spending is ramping up quickly.

Bigger issue is Carter ignores the US security blanket guarantee post-WWII stopped a thousand years of war in Europe. That’s good. A Chinese dominated world is not one you’ll like.

US spent far more on defense in the 1950s than we do today, let along what we spent during WWII. Those were enormous contributors to growth.
