So Imperialism is good!

Post by Dr_Liszt »

I heard that from one of my friends because apparently it give you the protection of a superpower to handle stuff for you. [none] He also praised America for having the power to screw you over for not playing his game. [none]

So... I told him that well no. No imperialism, more economic freedom, more resources and more progress. I really can't imagine a world without imperialism because it seems like everything we do will lead to that anyways.

I imagine a world without imperialist politics will have falls and rises of economic capitals all the time and everywhere. It would be a very unstable world. So maybe, we need imperialism to have a constant?

It's good to be a slave. The master has to do all that unfun stuff like keeping ledgers of all their money. Give me a whipping any day.

I knew the education system was bad in the UK but I expected basic reading comprehension. [razz]

I'm sure you can find some remedial/refresher courses if you check around.

You know what I want?

FTA renegotiations. People over here are already talking about Arbenz again. So if shit goes down, I need all of America to stop paying taxes. [none]
