Vast majority of the comments are asking about Rafah. Good to see.

Here it is, straight from 1980, https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1980/03/15/carter-unveils-plan-to-fight-inflation/e4ec33d5-0060-4aa7-b7eb-b29770cd0434/

Read the whole thing, it talks about the predicted recession that these "reforms" were intended to bring about.

It's not true. Trump was President for 4 years, that didn't happen. It's histrionics.

There has been no difference since Carter. Carter was the one who started modern neoliberalism with the idea that inducing a recession would be a good thing to stop run-away inflation, so he worked with the fed to start one.

It went Carter, Reagan, CIA, Clinton. (or, in other words, CIA, CIA, CIA, CIA).

By then, we were cooked, truly no difference in neoliberalism from either party, the cruelty towards the average person domestic and abroad is some sort of special evil.

Edit, in 1963, the CIA was successful in a coupe of the USA, and has been in charge ever since.

Don't ever call police. 9/10 times they will turn on you, even if you're the victim. Police have one function, to investigate crimes, charge you with crimes, and arrest you for crimes. It doesn't matter if you did it or not. They will abuse you, detain you, and arrest you. They have no obligation to help you in any way.

NEVER call the police!

Watch "the civil rights lawyer" and "audit the audit" on youtube, if you need to learn more, they go into case law, it's worth watching and knowing your rights and knowing the best way to deal with them: Record, record, record, invoke your constitutional right to silence and against search and seizure, and shut the heck up, once you invoke your right, do not talk no matter what, except to request a lawyer.

If police call you, don't answer. If police show up at your door, don't answer. If police are engaged in traffic stops, find another route. Don't even look at them, I've literally been detained and investigated for looking at police.

Also, if you drive, get a dashcam.

Me personally, when I was still naive, I had video of a couple kids come by my house, and push down a newly planted tree (I bought and planted it), they pushed it down at the base, and snapped it off. I called the police to give them the video and they started accusing me of doing something to the kids to make them retaliate. I picked up on this very quickly and carefully ended the conversation. By the way, they had no interest in taking the video from me, and told me outright they weren't going to pursue the case, but they sure were a bunch of assholes to me for evidently calling them to do the job they agreed to do.

Mint and Cinamon are so fucking good. They do what they are supposed to do, make your computer useable for what you want to do. Micro$hit thinks Windows should be the star of the show, many such examples

Been using Desktop Linux since early 2000s on my home machines without any dual booting crutch. Work uses Micro$hit. Blows my mind how every single release of Micro$hit since Windows 2000 has steadily gotten worse.

Not voting for Biden is giving the election to the cheeto-man

Not voting for Trump is giving the election to brandon

USA going the way of the Soviet Politburo.

Old enough to see everything generally getting shittier. Maybe it's an age thing, but post 9-11 everything just keeps getting shittier. I realize now it's by design, to enrich the few.

These Dept of State ghouls always parrot the same line that somehow China is cheating and it's unfair. Quote: "all while addressing the PRC’s non-market practices"

It's fucking hilarious they can't seem to grasp that there are no rules here and that somehow China kicking their ass is just so unfair and cheating. Like what you gonna do, take your ball and go home?
