autarky is a good thing, free trade has failed to deliver what it promised

2019-12-05 20:52:45 UTC  

90% marginal tax rate

2019-12-05 20:52:54 UTC  

For highest wage earners

2019-12-05 20:53:14 UTC  

U.S has 90% marginal tax rate for top wage earners in the 40's and 50's

2019-12-05 20:53:25 UTC  

Tariffs>income tax

2019-12-05 20:53:28 UTC  

100% flat tax

2019-12-05 20:53:31 UTC  

The rich rely on free trade

2019-12-05 20:54:08 UTC  

Also eliminate VAT taxes

2019-12-05 20:54:26 UTC  

They negatively effect the poor and middle class

2019-12-05 20:56:21 UTC  

Tax on petrol aswell get rid of, only hurts the poor, however incentivize carbon free energy subsidies and phase out carbon fuels in a decade or so

2019-12-05 20:57:15 UTC  

Tax on the top 1% and 1/10 will pay for these tax reductions

2019-12-05 20:58:45 UTC  

Also tax on stock speculation and bonds would help to cover for welfare programs

2019-12-05 21:00:50 UTC  

Id rather ban AI in wallstreet than put a tax on every single transaction in the market

2019-12-05 21:17:06 UTC  

The rich should be abolished

2019-12-05 21:30:48 UTC  

Eat the rich

2019-12-05 21:54:52 UTC  

eat the rich jews

2019-12-05 22:56:52 UTC  

Or just the rich in general.

2019-12-05 22:57:04 UTC  

**especially landlords**

2019-12-06 00:40:58 UTC  

@Riley it was peer reviewed, and you completely ignore what I claim the lab was testing about the miracle

2019-12-06 00:59:10 UTC  

idk, you would think something like this would have a lot more attention lol

2019-12-06 00:59:17 UTC  

im super skeptical

2019-12-06 01:11:57 UTC  

It did

2019-12-06 01:12:01 UTC  

These happen all the time

2019-12-06 01:12:15 UTC  

We have plenty of verified miracles

2019-12-06 01:12:36 UTC  

The Egyptian government (who isn't even Christian) literally recognizes the Zeitoun apparition

2019-12-06 01:12:42 UTC  

Which we have photos of

2019-12-06 03:16:30 UTC  

Nasser himself reportedly saw it

2019-12-06 03:16:39 UTC  

And he was as secular as they come

2019-12-07 15:52:41 UTC  

Hm

2019-12-07 23:18:57 UTC  

@everyone Daily Question 🔖

- How should education be controlled? Should it be only national standards, state standards, localized standards, a mix, privatized, chartered, etc etc. Include your view on vouchers

2019-12-07 23:20:08 UTC  

Remove private subsidies of the school system

2019-12-07 23:20:15 UTC  

And increase spending

2019-12-07 23:20:20 UTC  

it should be run on state standards, however the federal government should have significant control over the curriculum.

2019-12-07 23:21:48 UTC  

Nationalize standards, nationalize powerful private education institutions like College Board and ACT

2019-12-07 23:31:25 UTC  

National standard, while I am usually a fan of state autonomy when it comes to education from what I’ve seen it usually leads to disaster.
Privatized schools can have a place but they should be under strict state supervision and need to certify that they are not falling under the state standard

2019-12-07 23:36:22 UTC  

Combination of National State Local. Primarily public with private school options not funded by the government.

2019-12-07 23:52:16 UTC  

I need to learn more on how any of these work and what are the pros and cons from each kind. Thus I'm uncertain.

2019-12-07 23:52:51 UTC  

I also need to know what exactly is common core and why was that bad.

2019-12-07 23:53:59 UTC  

Educational reform on compulsory education while also creating a unified national
framework, national standards, core curriculum, and guidelines for schools to follow, will give
success and prosperity for the nation. Schools nationwide will now be directly controlled by the
federal state no longer allowing for slight regional differences in educational approach. I wish for a
more classical education system of Trivium & Quadrivium expanding to practical skills in high
school (shop class, auto repair, home-ec, etc). Mandatory Phys Ed based on fitness training
then mandatory extracurricular exercise after school (sports, boxing, etc). A higher starting
salary for Teachers at $55,000. Teachers should also wear a uniform like any other public
servant. Decorations of academic achievements should illuminate their chest as a visual display
of a teacher's services. Teachers should receive raises or pay deductions based on the
performance of student academic achievements. Homeschooling and parochial schools will be
allowed for families and communities that desire to educate their children in that manner. A propose a complete overhaul of the entire education system controlled by the Federal state so an
emphasis on history, national identity, and comradeship that the national community provides. The old college system will be dismantled completely for we want higher affordable education
thus we will implement a new national system of affordable higher education based on the guild
system providing low-cost vocational education, trade schools, specialized colleges including
domestic industry and manufacturing trade schools creating low-cost higher education. Forgive all current student debt.

@Zoltanous What was wrong with the states controlling education? Wouldn't that lead to less teaching of the state's history and erosion of state and local cultures?

2019-12-08 00:09:05 UTC  

I don't like the regional state system. I despise republicanism, democracy and any type of liberalism. The state system ensures a culturally, histrically and identity that is not fundamentally unitary. A nation is only a nation when it fully fits these while America has never done so.
