Republicans feel more allegiance to Benjamin Netanyahu than Barrack Obama.
I have to apologize for not consulting with the locals about Obama when I was in Nairobi a few weeks ago. Too much fun there, forgot all about the politics & hate.

Well at least we have that. Who needs the AIIB?
Arriving at Lvov, the capital of Banderastan no less. Very symbolic.

How can you? U.S. Citizens have allowed the country to be taken over by a bunch of kleptocrats and plutocrats while they keep yapping about republican democrat blah blah blah. And next election we get to choose between a Clinton and a bush. What a democracy. All the while serious governments around the world are doing their job while not having to bomb countries willy nilly. Hoi polloi get the government's they deserve. Enjoy.

Even the FED has to admit it. Now all future arguments that quote the BLS stats, you will be rightfully ridiculed because it's no longer ignorance. It's just plain stupid.

I remember 1938 as well as what happened a year later.
The rest of you will just have to read about it.

Funny I thought there was a thread already.
This one is about Drugs and Politics.
Don't miss seeing this.
"Kill the Messenger".
I am sure the Government does not want you to watch this.

I strongly disagree with your second paragraph. China emerged as an economic power because Deng Xiaoping started pursuing free market policies. This was in no small part because of the influence of the Singapore example, and advice from the Singapore Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew.
Sri Lanka's biggest "export" is its people, many of whom work in other countries and remit funds back home, not commodities that have driven booms in some third world countries. I don't see the China connection, except that the old regime in Sri Lanka, like a number of African governments, courted Chinese investment and aid. The new government is promoting better relations with India, and Chinese investment may suffer as a result.
Yes, countries like Brazil did benefit from the commodity boom created by Chinese demand. Brazil is a poor example for your case though. I'd argue that the reason the country WILL fall into "that category" is because Dilma Rousseff has followed in Sri Lanka's footsteps and violated most of Tiny's rules for good governance, being smaller efficient government, avoidance of large fiscal deficits, low levels of corruption and crony capitalism, rule of law and property rights, and a good education system.

How can you morally justify using force, the government, to enforce that claim?
