Actually, the well from which money was dumped into the election, then and now, was from wealthy plutocrats. Trump is famous for saying anything that will get him votes.
And the plutocrats know this, they have their own oppo research, and the money to hire investigators, and lobbyists.
AS regards Paul Singer, he has only one agenda, no tax…
Actually, the well from which money was dumped into the election, then and now, was from wealthy plutocrats. Trump is famous for saying anything that will get him votes.
And the plutocrats know this, they have their own oppo research, and the money to hire investigators, and lobbyists.
AS regards Paul Singer, he has only one agenda, no taxes on the wealthy, let the middle class support him and his business. He is a vulture capitalist and here is what he has to say:
Singer is a member of the Committee on Capital Markets Regulation, a non-governmental, nonpartisan research organization.[104] He is chairman of the board of trustees for the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, a conservative think tank in New York City,[105] and on the board of directors of the Republican Jewish Coalition, a political lobbying group in the United States that promotes Jewish Republicans.[68] He also served on the board of directors for the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs.[106]
In 2016 Singer invested $500,000 in a PAC supporting John Faso, a Congressional candidate in New York's 19th congressional district opposing progressive candidate and Wall Street critic Zephyr Teachout. Teachout responded to the donation by challenging Singer to come to the district and debate her.[107] The same year, Singer supported Senator Marco Rubio in the presidential primary.[108]
As of September 2019, Singer had not donated to Trump's reelection campaign.[109]
According to ProPublica, Singer was linked to an Alaskan fishing trip with Justice Samuel Alito in 2008. Singer gave Alito free private jet travel from all across the country to Alaska, where a group including Alito and Singer went fishing. A few years later Alito voted with six other colleagues in Republic of Argentina v. NML Capital, Ltd. brought by Singer's companies after Argentinian debt was bought up. Alito never recused himself. The Federal Record of that case should have had Paul Singer as a Related Party, triggering a recusal analysis and decision.[110]
Like the Doctor you seem to have an affection for Putin and Communists.
I am 84 and not one who equates socialism with communism, America has been striving to be great as it has been a mixed economy, with socialism regulating and restraining the excesses of socialism. Socialism is NOT the ownership of the means of production.
Lenin referred to the USSR as State Capitalism, in reality it was corporate state (councils) that were organized along resource lines, like people (KGB), forestry, mining, industry, agriculture, construction each had their own bank, and a central bank, to coordinate and handle payments via the other banks.
The preferred method of handling debts, between trusts, was by barter, failing that then gold. the GOSBank was the "central" bank, it controlled the movement of gold.
The USSR was on a 100% gold standard with one ruble valued at .981 grans fine gold, and only enough rubles were printed to equal the amount of gold held by the banks.
Smuggling rubles out of the USSR was a crime, even a felony offense, because the holder of a ruble outside of the USSR, could present a ruble to the NordBank in Paris (the USSR's banking window to the world) and demand gold.
The USSR was very libertarian in that regard (only gold is money, paper just represents gold, which is redeemable on demand.
It was also libertarian when it comes to working and living, Art 12, of the 1936 Soviet Constitution states in essence, If you don't work, you don't eat. The unofficial motto of the GOP and Libertarians. Stalin also criminalized abortions.
Marx was a proto libertarian, he opposed slavery in the south, because it cost too much to produce, forcing his partner, Frederick Engels who inherited a textile mill, to buy the less expensive and cheaper quality, Egyptian cotton.
He wrote letters to southern newspapers, imploring them to free the slaves and hire them back at market wages, as that would enable them to produce cheaper cotton. Planters had to feed, clothe, house, entertain and pay preachers to brain wash their slaves.
Surprise, the old line Marxists and C ommunists are little more than Libertarians.
Oh Marx was also against import tariffs. He was a vociferous advocate for abolishing the "Corn Laws" corn in England and the continent is what Americans call grain. However maize is a form of grain, and thus it wound up in the vernacular as corn.
