Spoiler

Can't stump the Trump

I know it's an old thread (and the subject is beaten to the death) but I found this thing about the economics of fascism while investigating about comparative advantage and free trade. I will read another sources later and link them (for impartiality). Basically, if fascists had an ideology of strong people being superior to the weak, would they suport unions in the long run? It's a little detail, but history says that they would destroy them, in contradiction to what I and Monstamunch said before. It makes them less left (the whole organized labor thing) I guess.

And this is a Shingeki no Kyojin satire of Trump proposals. I knew I wasn't the only one thinking about this, XD

Edit: and this video too.

Edit 2: list of sources (for now):

http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/nazi-germany/trade-unions-and-nazi-germany/ <-basically the nazis had a state controlled monopoly on labour organization to destroy any dissension or real economic reclaims people would have

Take me in, oh tender woman.

Now you confused me. I hope at least you watched the Shingeki no Kyojin thing.

It's crap, but entertaining crap.

I'm honestly surprised/not surprised he made it this far. Almost certainly he is going to be the nominee.

And if he isn't, god damn... I'm kinda scared that there might be rioting.

After researching a little, I'm more afraid of Ted Cruz. That guy is a shining example of religious fundamentalism and corporatism, a protofascist.

Also, if Trump is the nominee, the democrat candidate will be weak. You'll have Hilary Clinton, part of the status quo and someone that made a lot of bad decisions in the past and has many conflicts of interest, and Sanders, idealistic, flawed (many of the things he proposes are bad or questionable, although modified could work, see Europe), but at least seems sincere.

I hope people don't vote that narcissist. You can discuss if he is a racist or not (I would say xenophobe), but it's the unfettered assholishness of a spoiled brat what I fear...for the world. Although I love America and you too folks, I don't want to see you slip to the third world like it happened to my country.

Anyway, it's fascinating to see a reality TV show villain becoming the Republican candidate. It's a first.

Between Trump, Cruz, and Rubio... I guess I prefer Trump?
It's like choosing between getting balls slapped, stepped on, or lopped off.

I'm kinda holding out hope that the RNC loses their mind and doesn't allow him to be their nominee. Then he runs independent, splits the Republican base in half, and Democrats win in the biggest landslide in American history (50/30/20).

As for actors being presidents, Reagan (the RNC beloved darling) certainly proved that it's both possible and desirable. Or Schwarzenegger, more recently.


EDIT: I kept spelling "RNC" as "RNG". Fucking RNG!

I'm voting for Hilary I want a female for president... It's time. Just hopefully a meteor isn't on its a way. Because usually when we get a female president in the movies an alien wants to wipe us out or a comet busboy its way... Or the latter zombie apocalypse.
