Spot on Syl.

I’ve had about two or three nations telegram me after ejection out of hundreds of ones booted. Funniest one was from a nation called E002 who said they weren’t a puppet. No comeback from them when I pointed out they were part of a sequence going E001, E002, E003..... E009.

Shin-Mutsu wrote:Neoliberalism is controversial, of course. What has it done for living standards? What about wealth inequality? And the relationship between nations?

However, you can agree that neoliberalism is without a doubt the greatest ideology devised in modern history. Removing price controls, lowering regulation, increasing trade and free trade in particular, as well as decreasing government intervention in some economies has proven to yield results. Under neoliberalist policies, neoliberal fans claim the GDP per capita has increased, living standards have also been raised drastically, and reduces poverty. Also, neoliberalism has helped improved consumer's purchasing power and ability to buy cheaper goods, which some say also helps commoners. Finally, neoliberalism leads to greater political freedoms, as we have seen several countries becoming more democratic over the years.

However, that is simply one argument, and you should express your opinions below.

I think the situation is in his favour and the overall trajectory will not be overturned, therefore I am forced to make this post praising neoliberalism. This post represents 0% of my actual views, but I am arguing with effort.

In a way, the election was stolen from Trump, just not by Biden or illegitimately.


237,000 old people votes would probably have helped him too.
