回複 '矽穀工匠' 的評論 : I agree with you! I believe all the politician are not reliable. But we have to make choice. And fortunately, in America and West, nobody can say that army must be controlled by them!
回複 'dream_pillow' 的評論 : My view, is that so called "Democrats" and "Republicans" are mere servants to the true rulers of America, who hide behind the scene and never show their face or name. The republicans don't have the backbones even if they insist on policy rigor. The democrats don't have the backbone either. For example, in Obama and Biden era, the democrats could have given the Mexicans in America citizenship. They did not. The republicans could do a lot more legislation in Trump two years, but they also did not. The "congress" are all cowards working for themselves. They are there only to enrich themselves.
回複 '矽穀工匠' 的評論 :Most of politicians (both capitalists and communists) are F--king bullshit. But I don't think Republic and Democracy are the same thing. No matter you like one of them or not, their work effect different people.
For example, when Democrat control the government, it's easy to apply the unemployment benefits. But when Republican come, it's quite hard.

回複 'dream_pillow' 的評論 : To me, communism = capitalism = "democracy" = China = New York. It is the same thing. In new capitalism the rich will always stay rich, and the poor will always work until the last day before retirement. Is Musk really so different from the New York new mayor? They all make rules for everyone to follow. Is Trump really that different from Xi Jinping? The world will be under "one party rule" spaning all countries.

回複 'dream_pillow' 的評論 : I understand what you mean! Chinese translation is "misleading". "Democracy" is just a decision making practice, good or bad. But Chinese put a halo to it.
I believe. Political theorem and lemma:
(1) Both China and USA has fake democracy. It is manipulated.
(2) The USA is in a state of "capitalistic dictatorship". The richest people are also pretend to give money to the poorest (meaning people who don't work and just collect tax benefits). The only benefit is to "win election" without getting into the Chinese Xi problem.
(3) Xi wants to be emperor but can not be. Sad for him. Eventually China will become "US style democracy" because it is just one fake democracy (rubber stamp akwardly) to a higher level of fake democracy (rubber stamping with a theater).
Capilistic system must use "election"+"fake democracy" to maintain legitimacy. But capitalistic system is the only reason the life expectancy of people are so high today. So we must join the capitalists and try to become one of them.
【美國根本沒印錢,而是印了債務contract,比如私人按揭和美國國債。】
記得2008年金融海嘯時,美聯儲搞了幾次 Quantitative Easing (QE)。當時的美聯儲主席 Ben Bernanke 介紹它是怎麽運作的:不是印好多鈔票,而是他在計算機鍵盤上按了幾個鍵,錢就變出來了。然後他用這些變出來的錢買巨量美國國債。
下麵是英文解釋:
Digital Money Creation
The Fed did not physically print money; instead, it created central bank reserves with a few keystrokes.
Reserves are a digital form of money.
The Fed executed Quantitative Easing (QE) by electronically creating new central bank reserves and using them to purchase massive quantities of U.S. Treasury securities.
