My definition of capitalism is,The government helping you to be able to help yourself,while socialism is the government telling you to relax while all you do is sleep and eat while they take from the wealthy and those who worked their asses out and hand it over to you..
Lets be glad USA don't do welfare cheques and bailouts.

Could you explain to us why Government debt is increasing in these high employment good days of Capitalism, please? What's it being spent on?

Why do Northerners call killers, bandits?

I am not sure if they know what they are dealing with.
Why do many call them anything else as if they aren't bandits?

Jeromeblack, Happney65 and others thinking Bernie is an option and citing Sweden Denmark and Norway

Watch this piece by CNN Fareed Zakaria and let us discuss the talking points

Bernie is saying Americans need to pay more tax so maga for everyone while Trump offers MAGA for some. That's their two different models, the workers or the financiers, the long battle in American history.

Economic models of nations grow organically out of those nations and its silly to think Sanders intends or is capable of imposing a Nordic or Swedish model on USA. One just needs recall Obama's Care to know that, or the Civil War to know such won't wash in America where the economic model is geared towards rewarding the already wealthy in the hope that they will invest their wealth and create more jobs. But not many expecting those jobs know these days that much of the reward the wealthy enjoy is on a tucked away Caribbean Island, especially when the going is good.

Good times never last forever, though, so they'll soon be giving handouts to 'too bigs to fail', you watch. They just won't call it 'socialism for the already wealthy', of course, and the masses will all cheer.

These irritants are dumber than wood, most American corporations did not pay a Nickel in federal tax last year, and these ones are slaving hard to defend their ass. Morons, those corporation ain't transferring no Nickel to y'all. Same way Dan Price wanna increase the wages for his workers to 70 bucks, Rush Limbaugh and host of repucklican thugs were going on about the company failing and all their shit talks, the company is growing now in leaps and bounds, while Limbaugh will soon die a pain and slow death from his lungs cancer.
We are soon going to be bailing them out again!

What did he meant when he said 'none has ascended to heaven except he.
It is meant that none had acquired the understanding of the things that are Godly and that come from developing the mind which is in your heavenly head.

FOLYKAZE:
But history wasn't on his side as no one record his ascension when the gospel claim many people witnessed it. How come there is no witness account of the ascension
You can not be asking why someone was not recording Jesus' ascension on iPhone shocked

You mean the battery doesn't last long or get damage quickly?

No, not selling mine. Just telling you that after 3 years light use mine does not hold charge as long as it used to.

Batteries on JBL 2s I bought years before are holding charge slightly better.

Amotekun2020:
Buffet was right... After all the criticisms, the oracle of Omaha was right. The day of cash has finally arrived. The war chest of the oracle totalling $120 billion can now do the needful.
Shortly after he released his letter, admitted his mistakes, he reassured investors that the market would fluctuates, they should consider berkshire Holdings in the listed companies as part ownership of the companies.
72 hours after the letter, he emerged as the best investor of all time.
I had read a lot of negative criticism of the oracle and how people compared the growth of berkshire as grossly underperformed the market due to expectations of buffet that the market was overpriced,
Based on the principle of value investing, Buffett has not made a major purchase in the past 3 years of Donald Trump administration. He was labeled a doomsayer.
An article published by Zac investors, stocks watch, opined that the market could no longer crash due to advent of ETFs and the anticipated growth of the concept.
In all these, Buffett stood his ground, insisted that the market was overpriced, meaning he cannot just be throwing cash at overpriced stocks coz of Donald Trump euphoria tax cuts. He did admits that Berkshire also benefited from the corporate Tax cuts.
Now is the time for value investors to buy the dip in the market.

As for the earth eclipse of the moon no one really knows. But it believed that a dark body known as raku by the ancient covers the face of the moon and not the shadow of the earth. The earth cannot cast a shadow on the moon that is a light. It is only a theory.
Its not "raku". Its Russell's Teapot!

Greta Tintin Eleonora Ernman Thunberg is a Swedish environmental activist on climate change whose campaign has gained international recognition. Known for her straightforward manner of speaking, both in public and to political leaders and assemblies, Thunberg was born on 3 January 2003 in Stockholm, Sweden, the daughter of opera singer Malena Ernman and actor Svante Thunberg. Her paternal grandfather was actor and director Olof Thunberg.

Thunberg's activism started after convincing her parents to adopt several lifestyle choices to reduce their own carbon footprint. Thunberg says she first heard about climate change in 2011, when she was eight years old, and could not understand why so little was being done about it. The situation made her depressed. She stopped talking and eating, and lost ten kilograms (22 lb) in two months. Eventually, she was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), and selective mutism.

"I was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, OCD and selective mutism. That basically means I only speak when I think it's necessary. Now is one of those moments." - Greta Thunberg, November 2018

In August 2018, at age 15, she started spending her school days outside the Swedish parliament to call for stronger action on climate change. Soon, other students engaged in similar protests in their own communities. Together, they organised a school climate strike movement under the name, Fridays for Future. In an interview with Amy Goodman, she said she first got the idea of a climate strike after school shootings in the United States in February 2018 led to several youths refusing to go back to school. On 20 August 2018, Thunberg, who had just started ninth grade, decided not to attend school until the 2018 Swedish general election on 9 September, demanding that the Swedish government reduce carbon emissions in accordance with the Paris Agreement.

"As people they think what I am doing is good, but as teachers they say I should stop." - Greta Thunberg, 2019

After October 2018, Thunberg's activism evolved from solitary protesting to taking part in demonstrations throughout Europe, making several high-profile public speeches, and mobilising her growing number of followers on social media platforms. Her speech during the plenary session of the 2018 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP24) went viral after she claimed that the world leaders present were "not mature enough to tell it as it is".

In July 2019, Time magazine reported Thunberg was taking a "sabbatical year" from school, intending to travel to the Americas while meeting people from the climate movement. In August 2019, Thunberg sailed across the Atlantic Ocean from Plymouth, England, to New York, USA, in the 60-foot (18 m) racing yacht Malizia II, equipped with solar panels and underwater turbines. The trip was announced as a carbon-neutral transatlantic crossing serving as a demonstration of Thunberg's declared beliefs of the importance of reducing emissions.

On 23 September 2019, Thunberg attended the UN Climate Action Summit in New York City where she delivered a thought-provoking speech.

"This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you all come to us young people for hope? How dare you! You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words. And yet I'm one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction. And all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you!" - Greta Thunberg, 2019

Thunberg has inspired a number of her school-aged peers in what has been described as "The Greta effect". In a short meeting with Thunberg, Pope Francis thanked her and encouraged her to continue. In February 2019, 224 academics signed an open letter of support stating they were inspired by Thunberg's actions and the striking school children in making their voices heard. United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres endorsed the school strikes initiated by Thunberg, admitting that "My generation has failed to respond properly to the dramatic challenge of climate change. This is deeply felt by young people. No wonder they are angry."

Greta Thunberg has also received various honours and awards over the course of her activism.
