Biden wants to Appoint Communist to take over Banking: Scary & Unbelievable


They didn't create the virus out of thin air. They were experimenting with viruses and Fauci admitted to funding gain of function research. He should he charged with treason. He's no Saint the way the liberal media makes him out to be. He's one of the most crooked people out there.
Leaving aside for a moment that you've quoted a Vanity Fair article, do you know who appointed Fauci to lead the response to the pandemic?

Take all the time you need.
There's videos on youtube of Republicans such as Rand Paul grilling Fauci, screaming at him, and basically crucifying him. Fauci was dead in the water. But, CNN and MSNBC don't play those hearings on loop.

The paper in question sounds a lot like the Chicago Plan advocated by Irving Fisher, Henry Simons and Milton Friedman (extreme free-market liberals). Private financial institutions would be perfectly free to intermediate between savers, borrowers and investors and would still have access to Fed funds. But the power to create money on Main St would be insulated from the casino banking of Wall St:

If Main Street can't "create money" then banks can't loan, they have no way to make money and they will close.

And note that giving banks access to Wall Street was done to keep the whole banking system from crashing due to holding a bunch of fixed-rate mortgages in times of rising interest. It's not an ideal system--but an ideal system can't exist.
I can't tell whether you misunderstand the proposal, the banking and monetary system or both.

You didn't see this on CNN. As soon as you hit play, you can see how guilty Fauci looks. He immediately hangs his head in shame. Rand Paul really made Fauci look stupid.

There's no way you could've watched that whole video. I know who appointed Fauci. It was Trump. Doesn't change the fact that what Fauci did is a treasonous act. Look at around the 4:00 min mark. Paul had him dead to rights.

Well you've got me there! I didn't even click on the link. Because "argumentum ad you tube video" isn't worth responding to.

You clearly can't form your own opinions, and instead rely on videos that make you angry, pretending that this is a valid form of debate.

By the way, your original post here was "OMG Joe Biden is appointing a communist to rule over the banks!" Now you're posting videos about Fauci and how Rand Paul has him "dead to rights."

At this point you've long since veered into "grandpa's shouting at the clouds for making rain" territory.

This is not me relying on videos anymore than the Kyle Rittenhouse trial is relying on videos. It's what's contained in the video! That doesn't even make sense what you said. "Argumentum ad videum"

As we all know, conversations veer off in different directions sometimes. It's my thread!

Since you won't watch the video, I will summarize. Mice became sicker who had humanized cells and Paul ays it's gain of function. Fauci says not according to the definition. Paul says you changed the definition on your website to try to cover your ass. Fauci was stumbling. It would be the equivalent of someone being accused of murder and they respond, "According to the definition of murder, murder means to eat ice cream."
 
So now we're talking about lockdowns...

Seriously, we'd already have this pandemic licked if everybody would get their vaccine.

Anti-vaxxers are just perpetuating the process of natural selection.

But they're going to drag a lot of other people down with them.

No--the vaccine doesn't appear to be good enough to stop Delta. We still need masks.

However, vaccine plus proper mask use would stop it. I see more misuse than proper use, though.
I think the vaccine alone WOULD HAVE been enough if everyone had just gotten it. Yes, I understand that, under current conditions, we need the mask, but a city NEAR me has already been able to relax the mask mandate whereas my own city's numbers are still too high. I think that people's refusal to get the vaccine is at least a contributor to the fact that we still have to wear the damn masks.

Fortunately, we have very few anti-maskers in the area, thank Frith.

Before Delta a quick look would say the vaccine alone would have been enough, but it wouldn't have worked because it wasn't approved for children yet. Children associate with other children, providing a pool that would support the virus.
Well, that does complicate matters. I am only rarely seeing anti-maskers in the area, though. While shy of perfect, Raleigh is not terrible for that.

The more people that refuse to comply, though, the longer the rest of us are going to have to wear them. I have a physically exhausting occupation, so it's not like I am wearing these things for recreation.

Have you noticed how petulant-looking anti-maskers look? They always look angry. It's like the phenomenon where the only people that play their music loud enough for other people to hear it tend to have terrible taste in music.
 
He immediately hangs his head in shame.

I don't think a person can really 100% confidently tell what is going on in a person's head from body language. And in some situations, I look down in disgust or look down like a face palm but without the palm because doing the palm to the forehead in the context of formality is out of place. Therefore, I take his body language to possibly mean he was ashamed of Rand Paul. BUT anyone using this type of body language from Fauci one way or the other as the cornerstone of their "proof" is a very bad idea. The proof should rely on objective, documented evidence, not interpretations of Fauci's one-second body language.

I'm so sick of "gain of function" bs on the Internet. You give some people a term and they just won't shut up about it. It was like when the nuclear incident happened in Japan and all of a sudden tens of millions of people became experts in nuclear physics. Rand Paul has been waving this stupid red herring for over a year.

Covid-19 has been acting like a virus that is new in a species. It affects some more than others, we'll figure out at some point what the likely reason for that is. But Sen. Paul just has to Rand Paul it in the Senate... so he can be Rand Paul.

Yep! I looked at the video (though I've seen at least parts of it before). I most certainly wouldn't claim to know why Dr. Fauci bent his head down, but I would far more suspect he was working on composure (while mentally working on how to deal with a raving powerful man on live camera) in this situation. Senator Paul was grand standing, and Dr. Fauci was being the professional we'd expect...

Fortunately, no Battleships were deployed in this farce....

It is paragraphs like this that make me proofread work emails several times to ensure there is no language in them that can be misconstrued intentionally by lawyers.
 
Small government does not mean no government.
(defense of big government on abortion...)

"Small" means "big when it does what I want it to", it seems.

A real small government is a wimpy government, like that of Somalia.

As Confucius said, "Dance like no one watching, but text like it being read out in pre-trial deposition by someone else's attourney. "

Anybody who has really read the red words in the New Testament would know that we cannot allow a True Christian in the Federal Government, much less in the banking system.

From The Beatitudes to the parable of "Lazarus and the rich man" to "what you do for the least you do for Me", really the list of Jesus quotes condemning modern Capitalism is huge!

Communists are just secular Christian wannabes. If we want to protect ourselves from Christian moralizing like Jesus, we need to keep Christians out of the government.

I think Dr. Fauci should have made the deal with Rand Paul - I will resign one second after you do.
 
And you think Biden wil get tough on the Chinese? He's in bed with them. Trump called them out to the whole world for releasing the virus and said they will pay for doing that. Biden is now letting China run amok.
Ford and Loren were talking about how you don't have the slightest fucking idea about the modern day Chinese government. That you failed to address this and instead deflect like the shittiest Jedi around is pretty telling.
blah blah, Joe Biden, blah blah blah, Hunter Biden here's some shit from the NYPost.
Again, not willing to address that know jack fucking shit about China or the fact that you think "communist" means either anyone who disagrees with you or whoever the right is currently fucking terrified towards.
You realize I made a post in this thread about how China didn't get lifted out of poverty until they embraced capitalism? But, their government is still very authoritarian overall.

I like how you ignore all bad news against Biden. Why is that? Establishment media treated Trump like dirt. Why is that? How can a guy who you guys claim is "pure establishment" be hated so much by the establishment media? There are still a bunch of people who actually believe Trump was status-quo establishment. If that was the case, the media would've loved him! Remember when Trump enacted the travel ban when coronavirus started and everyone screamed he was racist and xenophobic? Biden bans travel due to the new variant and the media isn't calling him a racist xenophobe. Funny, right?
The media treated Trump as well as possible... treating that complete piece of shit like he was just 'dirt' was like treating a convicted pediphile like they were the pope.

Your outrage is silly and easily dismissed with the same kind of hand-wave you give a toddler that just discovered the word 'No'.... no one is suggesting that the US will ever even think about abandoning capitalism.. not that you seem to even know the difference between economic systems, social support systems, or systems that establish governmental authority.

I am 'micro-concerned' about the 'micro-agressions' against the fragile snowflakes that call themselves 'patriots'.
