usually in modern language, when they say "We need more democracy" they are usually talking about giving more voice for the people

which I'm fine - of course, it depends on context, eg. how they go about it

I'd say we need more Republic.

more stasis?

more resistance to change?

how about lowering the govt budget

lol

a high govt budget is not capitalism btw

i dunno where you got that idea

No I don't agree with the Fedral system and the Federal Reserve killing the Republic and proper Competitive Free Enterprise.

by raising inflation

The Federal Reserve is a cancer on the American Republic.

and undermining savings

well the federal reserve sort of controls the treasury, which the govt needs

the problem is the govt is spending so much money that they take loans from the FR

because, allegedly, no one else will loan to them

they can't service the debt

is the reason

supposedly

@What Would Jack Conte Do? ` "no one else will loan to them" ` is that true

No

I'll show you the video

Whenever you buy government bonds you're loaning money to the government

i know

but im guessing not enough people are buying

so the govt is like "Oh shit, we need more money, because there's no way we could possibly lower the budget"

Trump needs to tell people to buy govt bonds then.

lol

Kek

do his whole salesman thing

i think it'd be better if he just bit the bullet and lowered the budget

i mean, he's already taking a lot of flak anyway

so what harm could it do

I worry what a reduction in the budget could do to govt services though.

austerity ☣

absolute disaster

babies exploding

guts everywhere

I mean I'd like it if they could make a healthcare system that works.

then vote bernie
