I mean that taxpayers fund wars. Military industrial complex / Banks / investors, are the ones making profits.

I gain no profit off the taxes I pay. Taxes are pure expense. And the only reason I pay them is because if I don't, a bunch of heavily armed and armored men come to my home to imprison me. If I attempt to defend myself from being imprisoned, they will use all necessary force up to and including killing me in their detainment effort.

Claiming taxes are low compared to profit is stupid. Taxpayers aren't profiting off taxes at all. And the majority of businesses are harmed by war. Only those businesses that provide directly FOR the war see profit off it.

Shrugging off the taxpayer like "oh, they're profiting anyway" is not very bright.


when they talk about "shutting down the government they are saying they are not going to 'borrow any more money.
'borrowed money is what funds all the big scams like war for profit. human trafficking, drug cartels, taxed money is just a side hustle

thats right bobb your taxes is a protection racket

- Russia won’t be able to occupy Ukraine ( same than below)
- Russia won’t be able to demilitarize Ukraine (So true, it's size of France + West Germany...)
- Russia won’t be able to weaken NATO (discussable, because a strong change in Russia can question NATO treaty)
- Russia won’t be able to divide the European Union (United it even more)
- Russia is getting its economy destroyed by sanctions (to be confirmed)


What output can we expect from the changes in EU-RUSSIA relation ? Is it a good thing for USA ?

Maybe Russia could pay rebuild and all various costs with its Oil, Natural gas, Minerals.

Imo the best would have to get ex-Russia to join EU, would take a decade or more btw...


Federal elections will be held in Germany on February 23 2025. Many Germans are so sick and tired of the present situation that they want to drop sanctions on Russia and start importing Russian gas again.

Another country is turning against project Ukraine and it's a major player this time, your narrative is falling apart.

Polarizing as always, Germany isn't anti-American or pro Russia. Sanctions are killing our economy, recessions second time around this year and we pay the lion share of EU. The EU construct would crumble in itself together with a weak German economy. Sanctions were there to weaken Russia and to force peace. Those sanctions don't work at all. Instead of forcing Russia to a peace deal, we're being punished for helping out Ukraine. We aren't a nation of idiots and it doesn't take a rightwinger tos ee the discrepancy. Long term, I hope we'll have our own army and march into Poland.. just kidding .. regain our full sovereignty back.

UK is the ultimate suicide lapdog. They work geopolitically against the interests of EU while totally being dependent on its wellbeing :lol: I hope also that we could economically isolate that cancer tumor from the mainland Europe, so they could have themselves with their Londonistan. They could import food and energy as much as they'd like from their best friend the US at astronomical prices.

The UK is no longer part of the EU, I guess they must be getting nervous right now with Trump in the white house and the situation in Ukraine. At least the EU forms a united block (to a certain extend)

They're fucked long term. Countries would like to make new deals with them as a sovereign nation outside of EU. They don't have much geopolitical or market value to negotiate favorable deals.

It has now been nearly 3 years since Russia already lost. Looking poor for the Federation, eh?
