Then you have to acknowledge that wars are different too. The military action in Libya is not equal to the military action in Iraq, just like WWII is not equal to the Falklands War. Again, you can't just arbitrarily decide that variables count for one thing but not another, it's logically inconsistent.

I didn't say they were the same, I'm saying attacking countries with a psychotic dictator is the same.

Yes, you kind of did with that whole "Warfare is Warfare" nonsense you were on about. There are major differences between both Iraq and Libya and you have to acknowledge them. Again, WWII and the Falklands War aren't equal, even though Hitler and Leopoldo Galtieri were both dictators.

Socialism is an economic system characterised by social ownership of the means of production and co-operative management of the economy. "Social ownership" may refer to cooperative enterprises, common ownership, state ownership, citizen ownership of equity, or any combination of these. There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them. They differ in the type of social ownership they advocate, the degree to which they rely on markets or planning, how management is to be organised within productive institutions, and the role of the state in constructing socialism.

A tariff on China would increase employment. That's undeniable. Not saying its good or anything, but employment would increase if foreign goods became more expensive, causing domestic producers to be able to sell more and thus hire more workers.

He said we should stay and keep the oil in Iraq (so neo-con and evil) and that a 25 pc tariff on China would help the economy (I don't like globalization, but this?!) . On issues like gay marriage and taxes he could barely give an answer. Please Republicans don't vote for this guy if he runs. You all already put a dumb militaristic leader in place, we don't need another one.


EDIT: Donald Trump the Business Genius is a Political [an] Idiot.
I quit (again).

And people would probably go apeshit because their once-cheap Walmart trinkets are suddenly more expensive for some reason.

He isn't a business genius. He's a dumbass, and the GOP would be mad to support him...and it probably won't.
