Get Ready for the First Shocks of Trump’s Disaster Capitalism

Under Pence’s leadership, RSC came up with a list of “Pro-Free-Market Ideas for Responding to Hurricane Katrina and High Gas Prices” — 32 policies in all, each one straight out of the disaster capitalism playbook. To get a sense of how the Trump administration will respond to their first crises, it’s worth reading the list in full.

Report reveals deepening poverty in West Virginia

Contributing to these dire numbers, according to the WVCBP report, is the continuing steep decline in the West Virginia economy. Employment in the state fell by 0.5 percent from 2012 to 2014 when massive layoffs began in the coal mining industry. Employment declined an additional 0.7 percent in 2015, leaving the state with 9,000 fewer jobs than in 2012. The overall unemployment rate was 6 percent in November 2016, the fourth highest among the 50 US states.

Dutch Leader Takes Trump-Like Turn in Face of Hard-Right Challenge

The prime minister of the Netherlands, aiming to head off an insurgent challenge from right-wing populists, stunned many Dutch citizens this week with a strategy that could have come from President Trump’s playbook. In an open letter, published online and in full-page newspaper advertisements, the prime minister, Mark Rutte, warned of “something wrong with our country” and said “the silent majority” would no longer tolerate immigrants who come and “abuse our freedom.

Truly the manchurian candidate

Mark Rutte is not a person to be trusted. He has pretty much fucked us the last eight years, but his letter was a nice read, even though he was clearly doing it for the votes. Everything in there he'd ignore if it suited him or rather the sheep who vote for him. Fuck immigrants, fuck "refugees", he's right, they shouldn't be tolerated, they should be gassed

Debt is going to massive explode too, especially with Trump's $1 trillion infastructure plan

It's going to be the housing crisis all over again

No-bid contracts that will likely be given to his crony non-union construction biz owners.

tbh, my favorite is Holla Forums's reaction to it

2 months ago they'd be saying how this is a sign that it's gonna pop. they've gone full personality cult

Fear porn. so many weasel words, its hard to call the piece 'news'
Shall we discuss the seven journalists who were charged with espionage under Obama for reporting on leaks?

You some kinda faggot?

lmao. socialists don't see such things as fear mongering. it's a call to gear up and prep for class struggle.

grasping for straws because they are scared and tired. Be compassionate and gently steer them in another direction

...

I think the word you're looking for is "edgy", or "ignorant" or "insecure".

What the fuck even is this shit post

And then you wonder why SJWs have a one up on you, when you define yourself like so.

That's exactly what some believe.
Around those part of the Internet the term politcally correct is associated to roughly: brown are good people and deserve good things, which makes politically incorrect the opposite aka browns are bad people and deserve bad things.
Of course it's a false dichotomy become being brown do not means much on its own. But with minds almost hardwired to see the world in big, more or less homogenic categories, judging on individual basis is not that frequent, even amongst the ones claiming they do.

how are these even remotely related? this is like is like macedonian putinbot tier deflection

*because bing brown

I love Holla Forums logic

A year or so ago the entire board was on fire with the belief that the Blood Moon would be an eco-apocalypse and that 🍀🍀🍀they🍀🍀🍀 would make 🍀🍀🍀their🍀🍀🍀 move.

if you haven't seen Shock Doctrine, now is a good time

Every year it's something new

Boy Scout Jubilee
Asian Implosion/Chinese Civil War of 2014
Shemitah last year


They only thing that might happen is the US getting into a war with Iran in the next few years

Remember the whole super semitah thing where they believed the Jews were going to crash the markets on Rosh Hashana because it was like a special rosh hashana or something? Then they changed it to sometime in September when it didn't happen during rosh hashana. That was great.

Zone-tan instantly turns my dick into diamonds

I don't think she's that cute

The date they said it was going to happen was on a sunday
You know, a day the stock market isn't even open

This is the exact same shit that the media pulled with Bernie and Trump where they barely even acknowledged Bernie existed while shoving the "LOL TRUMP IS SO DUMB HAHA" down everyone's throats. And then they were surprised that Trump became popular

There needs to be an archive of all this dumb shit with screencaps and infographs. A black book of retardation,

Yea but jews control the world and shit opening the market on a sunday should be cake for them right?

I know somebody has screencaps for the semitah stuff. I've seen them before.

should be saved on 4plebs if you can remember the months/years

It seems that FN are hard leftist in disguise. Perhaps a compromise can be reached with FN and the hard left in both parties accepting that the foreign workers are being used by capitalists to undermine worker's pay and rights?

Fuck this one makes me so mad.

No.

As in most FN supporters are former hard leftists

That VA is top tits. Great voice.

Oh that's right, I forgot, gerrymandering is acceptable when it helps non-whites

you realize the vast majority of gerrymandering in the U.S. is done to benefit white conservatives right?

are we supposed to be foaming at the mouth that maybe a handful of districts are drawn to benefit non-whites?

Omg we were in heaven before but now our government is corrupt wtf

It's not right, either way. Unless it's done to give more equal say to each citizen, regardless of race & around class lines.

i totally agree

Guess I'd better scream nigger, lest I not be politically incorrect thus invalidating all my political conceptions.
gtfo fgt

Spooky.

lol no

You fucking nigger, read it
It's laying out the options the government will likely take, probably 1 or 3

Libertarians are so fucking retarded.

you can be politically incorrect without being edgy you dipshit

it's true though
it's pretty mod faggotry for changing a post and removing one, why the 1984 bullshit, even if you consider it a bad post as a mod you should just leave it be, it brings no harm.
i study, parents work, every penny the gov spends is in part out of my parents pockets, so the gov shouldn't think it's alright to spend 600 million on refugees when it could've been spend on students so they wouldn't have shitty loans or healthcare for the elderly, we've got atleast one report saying we need hundreds of millions euros to improve it because it sucks so much for them now. Or even if you really wanna, there's nato where we need to fund shit so we can be protected by big daddy usa which is kinda important, or school education where boys results are lower than girls due to education being favoured towards girls, due to behavioural aspects, that will hurt us badly in the long run.

gee wonder why though

zerohedge is mostly Russian wishcasting since like 2013

yeah, it became really obvious during this election

I'm aware of this, but they still amuse me
lel

I really quite like these threads

yeah i still check it out sometimes nonetheless

its twitter is actually a good world news aggregator

Same. Ever since the US general politics thread went away(people stopped posting in it as much) I've been missing out on recent political news. I don't watch MSM, political subreddits are usually an abomination. This is a great way to share info or breaking news in general.


OP, please keep doing these. I appreciate it.

yes, OP keep it up plz

I love how the meaning of the word "liberal" has been so twisted in America that they need to explain it to the reader when the word is used in its original meaning and clearly identified as a right wing, pro-business ideology.

what?

Somewhat true, both the bourgeoisie aswell as fascists would rather team up with eachother than ever be supportive of taking away everyones possessions and redistributing everything because of socialists. I dislike the banks, but I'd rather have them hold the power than socialists.
