Not much pioneering in that sense.
Not sure if it's that high but they've always had a thing for amassing wealth and making their kids get an education
Plus it didn't help that the Europeans didn't want to mess with sciences or financial stuff.
Idea was to just let the jews do it.
Science yeah, Europeans have always been involved
But banking, sort of. The Templars were a huge bank of course but then there's the problem of usury
I know there's reasons for staying out of financial stuff..
Christians aren't allowed to charge interest
Yeah religious reasons for no interest.
But that law didn't apply to Jews, for practical reasons. Not too many people would get into banking and loaning money if there's no profit. So they exempted Jews and they filled the niche
As a result they were able to make a lot of money
Which I didn't mean to imply that the non-jewish europeans didn't make scientific discoveries.
Yeah, and the crusades helped them as a people group a lot. Everyone buying weapons and armor from the Jewish lenders.
Most of the science of the era came from Christian Europeans and the Chinese, of course isolated from each other
Tf
They casually assumed victory against the Austrians and made people think that the Russians, Poles and Prussians totally didn't smash them back to their bulge-necks?
Chinese were the first to discover the new world as there are ancient Chinese and Japanese anchors from boats off the coast of California.
And in BC Canada.
Can we get som Arab politics up in here, Saudi is lost they damn mind ........
implying they had one in the first place.
But. At least in the past they had a scapegoat, not they flat out murdering journalists in their embassies....
@Rothguard I heard about that. Then there was them pulling all their citizens out of Canada over a tweet.
They've gotten more radical ever since the new sultan came to power
The crown prince is supposed to be making them more progressive. He had all those people arrested on corruption charges. Pretty sure he’s responsible for women being able to drive. I know he’s met with different tech people, Facebook and Google etc.
Not saying that couldn’t just be a front for more diabolical stuff though.
apparently he has a raging boner for putin. wants to be an O G just like him...
so hes trying to pull of gangsta moves , bau as with all things middle east, they just do it wrong...
all of this revolves around the sale of saudi-aramco. the higher the price they can push oil, the more bank they can make on the imaginary assests they sell.
If their journalists are like ours i say we follow their example.
Really wish we could just conquer the middle east and control the oil so they cant get cockey and we dont have to help them in their wars against other sects
👍🏻
Okay so apparently US got into highest debt since 2012.
I mean the tax cuts were beneficial for the GDP growth rate, but they had to go in conjunction to putting a full end to globalism.
We definitely should conquer the middle east for resources
The debt thing, honestly I don't care about it
It would be great to see a government shutdown again and non-essential employees laid off, permanently
