Who can bring charges in this instance?

Even if there is a perceived slim chance of success I still think charges should be brought forward. At the very least it might make some of these psychopaths hesitate to do the same. Maybe. And while they are at it maybe an investigation that produces names on who ordered these guys to act so brazen.

If you cant nail the guy who did this go after those who are above in rank. Maybe there's a "paper trail" on giving orders to do such thing?

People have to fight back or this lady definitely wont be the last.

It's the Elites that are the problem. Yes, there is a sizeable "mob" who are brainwashed by the Elites into being ugly too.

The Elites call the shots. So if America is behaving in an ugly way the blame lies almost exclusively with them.

Sure, like the dot com bubble it will burst. But like the internet, AI is here to stay. The real bottleneck is electricity supply. CEO of Microsoft has even said, we have the chips but not the electricity to power them. The chips are sitting idle.

The $US as world's reserve currency played a big part in why manufacturing was offshored. As manufacturing processes mature they move to the periphery. Because of the reserve currency status of the $US, this periphery meant outside the United States.

The periphery got the jobs and the US Elite got the $$$'s. What should've happened though was the Elites should've invested their cash into in technologies. Sure they did to some extent (NVIDIA is an example) but mostly what they did was pile their money into fixed assets, hence the inflation (e.g. housing) we have today.

The Blame lies with the Investment class elites, the Bankers, and the Donor Controlled politicians. Washington D.C. (Donor Controlled).

My apologies. You did address that the tRump admin doesn't care about the people of Venezuela.

>Please don't ask a question, then follow immediately with your opinion (showing your question was meaningless rhetoric)

You're right.

Your right.

Do u think the tRump administration did this to benefit the Venezuelan people?

They dont give a damn about the Venezuelan people. They want the oil sold cheap and in $US and the minerals. Venezuelans will get nothing out of this. Nothing.

And with those Billions comes influence.

Washington D.C. (Donor Controlled)

I'm not defending Maduro, but people forget that one of the reasons Venezuela was poor was because of US sanctions.

Sanctions are meant to make the people poor in the hope that they will rise up and topple the regime of sanctioned country. No need for US military operations.

The bottleneck was the phone line running into individual houses. ie The "last mile" was a bottleneck. Dial-up. If you're old enough you will remember people connected to the internet via Dial-up, that is, their phone line. It was a bottleneck. It's data capacity was nowhere near what the fiber was.

Electricity supply is a bottleneck.

> If resources were more evenly distributed, we would see different regions and peoples doing more varied things which would be appropriate for their needs.

You need legislation that forces the Banks to lend money for Asset CREATION not Asset ACCUMULATION. Or at least TAX asset consumption heavily.

Fair enough. It is Rubio who is the driving force behind this. Rubio et al are very anti-communist/socialist ideologically. Maduro offered everything basically to Trump except removing himself from power, which is what this "war" is really all about: removing Maduro.

And Libya too!

That's part of the USA's plan, in the hopes that the people will turn on Maduro and oust him so the USA doesn't have to do it.

But how did that strategy work out in Libya? Its an absolute mess. Now its a conduit for African migration into Europe. Who knows what destabilizing Venezuela will do.

You should look into the history of Venezuelan oil. Then you will understand why Chavez nationalized it. The Americans never forgave him for that.

> Maduro, the president of Venezuela, is a dictator

Saudi Arabia? The Saudi ruling elite and the USA are best buddies.

Yes its Monroe doctrine 2.0 but its also Rubio et al wants Maduro gone. Maduro offered almost everything to the Trump admin except one thing: abdicating. Maduro was even willing to concede on that but wanted to choose a successor and have a transition period. But the Trump admin turned even that down. The Trump admin wants Maduro gone right away. Period.

Yes, Cuba is next.

Tax incentives?

Private debt caused the Great Depression.

Its deliberately vague.

Its called Quebec. They have their own laws. Quebec is Canada in name only. Its a country within a country. They can even ban Canadian citizens from entering Quebec which in the past they have done so.

Yes. This exactly.

>Has trump forced us into the hands of China and Europe?

Indeed. In order to get/keep Argentina out of the hands of the Chinese Trump gives them $40 Billion. A pretty risky venture considering their past record. I am aware that there are other reasons for the bailout (e.g. Citron hedge fund manager, who could lose a fortune, is a buddy of Bessant etc.).

Canada on the other hand gets lots of bullying. The hegemonic goal of the USA is to control the Western hemisphere, yet Trump does everything to make the Canadians want to pivot towards China. Is that what the Geopolitical Elites in Washington want? Or is it a ploy, to push Canada into the hands of China, giving the USA an excuse to "take Canada over".

and our other choice is PP, who is a career politician, who's achievements are what?

I'm not happy about the choices. But c'mon PP?

The outsourcing of American manufacturing was done by the American Corporate Elites. I hope some of your anger is directed towards them.

Lutnick has already stated that America wants all vehicles for sale in America to be built in America. Any vehicles built outside America will be tariffed.

Sure, the Chinese will destroy Canadian any auto-manufacturing left for the domestic market, but it is the Trump administration's stated goal to dismantle the Canadian auto-sector, which is happening now.

What would the administration costs be in collecting this tax?

The neoliberals didn't care about national security when they shifted the manufacturing and jobs to China for profit. They were outplayed by the Chinese.

My anger lies with the neoliberal elites not the Chinese. The elites can go die on the battlefield. Its their mess.

I heard that the purpose of over hiring during Covid was to hoard talent. That is, to prevent another company from hiring that talent.

Ah yes, the employee is a Cost, not an asset. Got it.
