Ah
I havent watched it all the way through
basically asdrubal is drinking his own marxist koolaid abd refuses to accept the impossibility of his claims
So all gold and silver used for Indian trade goes directly to London once the Raj is nationalized, this is done through special council bills printed by the British. The special council bills "paid" to the indians who sold goods were exchanged for rupees from tax revenue, money that was collected from the Indians
this is irrelevant and youre shifting goalposts now
pls stop
I'm still typing
The special council bills causes a trade surplus for India
Since no indians are being paid
All of the actual money goes to the British
And the traders make profits
https://youtu.be/QAXPIhnQocM?t=2091 this timestamp addresses your point
the trade surplus was not impoverishing tbh
fairly reasonable
There's no stamp
34:50 @Asdrubal
That doesnt address the special crown bills
None of the sources you have listed have
Did you read it?
Marxist mathematics at it again!
Colonialism is immoral!!!!
!!!!!
theyre unimportant tbh
holding on to anything to say that the british were some kind of boogeyman
also
was this you?
''The special council causes a trade surplus for India''
this is your main issue with the bills isnt it?
the surplus was not that bad
The bills literally paid the Indians in tax money that was just collected from them
soo?
they benefitted from these thing either directly or indirectly
idk why this is suh a huge issue for you
seems like motivated reasoning
>the poverty rate was 70% at the end of raj rule in india
Totally beneficial
are we going back to correlation= causation?
right im going to dip out of this convo now because its getting circular now
You are kind of denying shit clearly infront of your face
Yes, but was that measured by modern poverty standards?
Shoot everywhere on India, human shit.
