America is evil

[Montgomery]

No in America the president doesn't make you poor that's the third world.

The president doesn't dictate to his party of course, but his wishes and demands are just as influencial. Most of the reason why that's true is because the system allows the president to threaten consequences to any politician who doesn't toe the line. Thus the situation in which the GOP has had to accept Trump's demands or lose the support of the people they need.
The R side of both the senate and the house need to be whipped now to stay loyal but there won't be a powerful authority at the top to do the whipping. And then the rest of the corruption is upheld by the big money graft for the members who accept it. Close to all of them.

Americans die of obesity and waste tons of food everyday while the other half of the world starves.

The uneven distribution often comes from throwing away perfectly good food to keep the prices high, not completely from too much consumption. We have a long history of doing cruel things to people who simply wanted to eat what the stores werent selling.

 

[bomberfox]

Unless you can demonstrate that Americans stole food from other countries where large swathes of the people are starving, I fail to see how your accusation makes any sense. America is evil because we are better at growing, producing and distributing food than other countries?

That is like saying that a particular country is evil because it has better-developed public transportation infrastructure.

This is a good take. I think the op is focusing on the wrong problem when we dont even consume all that we produce to keep prices high.

 

[Anarchist100]

You sound like a very young person that hasn't entirely thought their world view through. Do you understand that an even distribution would mean you losing a lot of your comforts? I think when the rubber hits the road with this you're all talk.

Yes I do, and I would be a selfish bastard to think my personal comforts are more important than other peoples lives.

 

[Anarchist100]

No you aren't.

What leads to to make that assumption?

 

[Kreton]

What leads to to make that assumption?

Because you aren't.

 

[Anarchist100]

I'm a little more alarmed that he think America makes up half the world.

I doesn't make up half the world but it takes up half the food.

 

[Kreton]

I doesn't make up half the world but it takes up half the food.

Prove it

 

[Anarchist100]

Prove it

Super markets throw away 43 billion pounds of food every year, while half the world starves, the average American waste one third of there food.
end of story.

 

[Anarchist100]

lots of very patriotic Americans here
☮Peace not patriotism☮

 

[vegas giants]

Super markets throw away 43 billion pounds of food every year, while half the world starves, the average American waste one third of there food.
end of story.

Name a better country

 

[Anarchist100]

Name a better country

All countries are bad, maybe I should have said the west instead of America oh well my bad.

Are you familiar with the concept of proof?

I'll help a little - proof is not saying random things you made up. Prove that Americans eat half of the worlds supply of food like you claim.

Name a country in the east that is better

Well I'll try to provide a link. It might take a while I'm not very tach savy.

 

[Anarchist100]

There are none, but America produces most of the food and waste a whole lot of it. Give all would be wasted food to the hungry there I've solved world hunger.

 

[Kreton]

Well I'll try to provide a link. It might take a while I'm not very tach savy.

I would assume with you making these claims that are blatantly false you'd already have them. How else would you know? What are you basing your statement on if it isn't research?

As a anarchist left wing libertarian that you pretend you are, what exactly do you propose happens with food?

 

[vegas giants]

There are none, but America produces most of the food and waste a whole lot of it. Give all would be wasted food to the hungry there I've solved world hunger.

So to be clear there is no country on earth better than the US.


That was easy. Lol

 

[Kreton]

There are none, but America produces most of the food and waste a whole lot of it. Give all would be wasted food to the hungry there I've solved world hunger.

So as a anarchist left wing libertarian you think that the United States should be forced by the world to give their food away to feed other countries?

Naturally this well organized, redistribution of goods against the will of the people who produce is in line with your libertarian anarchist values.

 

[bearpoker]

i was obese once. better food choices, exercise, and a food diary has helped me to keep the weight off. it's definitely worth it.

So you used to be evil, but you lost weight and now you're good.

 

[Jean-s]

If someone cannot feed their children then they should have their children taken away.

So are we having a comparative discussion of the relative evils perpetrated by our nations over those who have lived under our control, Jean-s, the United States versus Spain? Because I will see your accusation of the atrocities of chattel slavery in the South and raise you the Spanish conquest, mass-enslavement, forced conversion and genocide of the native peoples of Central and South America as well as the Caribbean. And I am talking about the ones your forebears enslaved, raped, and massacred by the hundreds of thousands directly, to say nothing of those millions of people your nation killed indirectly through the intentional and unintentional spread of disease.

No, if you read back in the discussion, you will see this was not the point I was making. It is absurd to deny that there is poverty in the USA.

The Evil that plagues America can be traced all the ways back to the time Columbus arrived and the acts of taking harm and murder they caused to the Native Americans, and the Indians Columbus took back as slave... on to the Colonization vile that led to bringing European Slave Programs, all the ways to the massive slaughter of Indian Tribes across the nation.
Further Evil was brought during the many centuries of 'unchecked boat loads of European came with every type of criminal mindset that has long plagued European Nations...
400+ yrs of interjecting racism and slavery programming and indentured servitude ideology "into everything".
We just watched 68,000,000 people try to promote and continue the policies borne out of racism, slavery policies and plutocratic agenda with an authoritarian motivational process.
America's Minimum Wage of $7.xx is a product of the evil created upon this soil, because it a form of modern day slavery, because minimum wage is measured as no more than it would cost in today's terms to house and feed a slave in substandard housing and substandard levels in everything....

The wealthy squandered everything and created a massive debt to put money in their pockets from that created debt, and expect the labors of the people to pay off that debt, which is a debt the average American did not create.

The Good Democracy Loving People, just narrowly "SAVED" America and Preserved American Democracy from those who would thrust it back into its Early 1800's model of raw savagery and human abuse.

Obesity is a symptom.... that is grounded in the "greed programming" that bastardize foods with unhealthy substitute ingredients, for the sake of profit, and the cycles of repressive conditions caused and created by civic divisiveness, and stresses of many sorts from both economics, racism, classism and convoluted programming that makes having opportunity a challenge. The improperly provisioned system that has damaged and diminished the Education since the days that Integration became the law of the land.
White Nationalist Imperialist Agenda both Domestically and Internationally has caused great damage to America because of the Evil Premise that White Nationalist Imperialism is built upon and The processes that have been put in place to facilitate it.

(SOME NOT ALL) Poor and Working Poor whites think they are not affected, but they are used as the core street level contributors to what is designed to entangle and keep them diminished in the same conditions.. they are used to try and disenfranchise blacks and it always doubles back and diminish them as well, and they still can't see the cycle of madness... they willingly participate to create. They get lost in thinking Credit Debt makes them something more based on surrounding themselves with material things, yet... unaware they are one sickness away from being made destitute. Many are one paycheck away from that same destitution.

That is far from being unique to Americans.

 

[Montgomery]

Will tonight be Kristallnacht in America? I great topic for a poll by somebody who cares enough. It would have the effect of causing the bitter feelings to be aired here. That is, assuming the decision for Biden is going to be claimed by the Dems and their media? It will tonight!

So you want the super markets to send their outdated food to the third world?
