it's not nonsense. what does trump want to do? reindustrialize! but what is his other goal? keep the dollar strong. the two goals are impossible together. you can't bring the jobs back, because burgers work for higher wages. People say this makes burgers spoiled, but they also pay higher prices. US currency is hegemonic because it is the world reserve currency. Burgers CAPITALISTS pay lower prices for importing commodities, but then they resell it at higher prices to american workers. The american worker's wage will buy more outside of america, but doesn't buy much inside america. if you tried to bring back industry to america, you would have to lower wages to be competitive with 2nd and 3rd world countries, which would lead to class struggle and riots. the burger porky doesn't want that. The other option is to make the burger currency weaker. world reserve currency status depends on burger reich racking up trade deficit, printing money, inflating currency over time, and importing more commodities than it exports. currency hegemony would end if you brought back jobs, but currency hegemony will also end anyway because inflation will eventually cause burger population average wage to go below subsistence, which will cause class struggle and riots. class struggle and riots is in burger future either way. only way out is for burgers to start big war, but big war requires draft, and bringing back burger draft will result in class struggle and riots. class struggle and riots is burger reich future no matter what option burger ruling class takes. reindustrialization will be good for burger reich but will kill US currency hegemony and cheap imports, which is bad for burger porky. burger porky outsourced to china, but now china is more developed than burger in many regards, and is even catching up in GDP PPP which porky fetishizes the most as an important metric.

You seemingly dont understand how national debt works. AmeriKKKan national debt is owed to capitalist parasites you cry about, mostly amerikkkan ones. Repudiating national debt would mean expropriating their bonds.

>>2565807
I don't think this solves the underlying issue but okay, do it

>>2565806
>you can't bring the jobs back, because burgers work for higher wages.
>you would have to lower wages to be competitive with 2nd and 3rd world countries,

You can bring jobs back if you automate enough. Higher end American stuff is still good, but the amount of parasites make it worse and worse for them.

Burger currency abroad =/= burger currency at home. Two systems are essentially insulated from each other. Comparing dollar wages is fucking stupid, like, a couple of years back Japan had yen devalued, "wiping out" what, 40% of their GDP and wages? What, do you think they've had holodomor happen to them? Nah, nothing of the like happened.

Burger currency abroad is popular because foreign exporters prefer USD denominated bonds because of inflation differences. Japanese Yen was popular for a while because it had great inflation compared to other currencies. This is one of the reasons why Westoid economists jerk off to inflation so much, and laugh at Russia and the like for having high inflation - economists are stupid enough to think that the whole world works just like US inner market, lol

Wrong. Automation eliminates jobs. Read marx
>Burger currency abroad =/= burger currency at home. Two systems are essentially insulated from each other.
Wrong. AmeriKKKans have no dual circulation because all wealth they consume is stolen from third world.

The number one thing that makes many marxists seem like pseuds with no credibility is trying to handwave away the world we live in.
Why aren't you doing anything to organize? Well, our economy is mostly services, and service workers aren't real proletarians. Capitalists outsourced all the REAL jobs, so now I'm going to outsource responsibility for the revolution.

Give me the naive people who want to form a communist ""union"" of pornographic commission artists any day.

Hey German anons, I have a question for you.
I know that the Nazis tried to eradicate usage of Fraktur and Sütterlin writing styles that were traditional to Germany and Austria, and wanted only Antiqua-type writing to be used.

Can most modern Germans still read Fraktur and/or Sütterlin text?
If not, doesn't that make reading stuff written pre-1930s difficult for you? That must make learning about history from first hand sources / reading documents from great-grandparents frustrating…

Was there any attempt by any political movements, be they Communist, or any other ideology, to revitalise Fraktur or Sütterlin for modern use?
Are such writing styles connected to any particular ideologies?

Sorry for forcing you to witness my autism but since I learnt that you used to use to write so differently in style to the rest of Europe, I can't stop thinking about these questions…
I personally think it'd be cool if German leftists revived Fraktur and Sütterlin writing as a fuck you to the Nazis who tried to eradicate them.

>>2565769
If you are not completely retarded and think the old s is an f it should be no problem for like 80% of the population

>>2565769
>Are such writing styles connected to any particular ideologies?
In practice most blackletter is used in faux-medieval pastiche and by weirdos on the internet. Ironically Sütterlin is strongly associated with NS Germany now, because it only started being phased out when they were already at war and the lettering continued to be used in a lot of iconic Nazi art. People also tend to notice Antiqua writing less than that weird writing style that went out of use after the war, so it's a case of selective memory more than anything.
>>2565777
They're hard to differentiate on low-resolution scans of historical documents though. So are capital K and R.

>>2565769
Kurrentschrift has been taught at schools here at least till the 60s-70s, so most people today still can write or read it, because of their parents. Fraktur on the other hand is pretty much dead. You may find it on some beer cans, but thats it. We can read Fraktur, but not as good as Kurrentschrift and reading lots of Fraktur is a pain the ass. Simce many uneducated right wingers use Fraktur for their memes, you wont be able to make it a lefty thing. People will just think you're right wing.

>>2565769
Fraktur is not that hard to read. It is still being used for e.g. restaurant signs in villages and towns, labels for "traditional" stuff e.g. local traditional food products, music and design and most importantly, a lot of street signs are in Fraktur still. Sütterlin is a different thing, it's much harder to read plus it was in use for only a very short time. Most historic official documents, construction blueprints etc. are written in Kurrent.
i'm not aware of any political attempts to get rid of mainly using Latin writing in favour of returning to German letters. Fraktur is not connected to a specific ideology, both left and right may use it occasionally on leaflets, banners etc.
>so differently in style to the rest of Europe
Well from a modern and/or Romance/Anglo-Saxon perspective certainly. However Fraktur developed from Carolingian and Gothic letters, historically it was used in Germanic speaking countries i.e. DACH as well as in Scandinavia and the Baltics from Hanse times up until the late 19th century. Some Slavs prefer their own letters which are related to Greece/Byzantium iirc over Latin in daily life to this day.

Alienation is a purely economic phenomena, which has social implications. You are irresponsible with your words.

It's a legal term, from which the "moral crisis" proceeds

taiwan is basically what if all the confederates fled to puerto rico after the american civil war and called themselves Dixie Rico. Nobody should be obligated to take that seriously.

>>2565786
Puerto Rico was not in the USA until decades after the Civil War.

You get the point uygha.

But ok, Taiwan is basically what if all the Cuomintang fled to Staten Island after the New York civil war and called themselves the real New York government. Nobody should be obligated to take that seriously.

as for my commentary, they all dance around the issue that joint production can lead to negative values. interestingly you can have negative surplus value and positive profit
joint production is "dealt" with in national accounts by aggregation. this forces everything into a square Leontief matrix where you only get positive values

Introducing Fixed Prices

What if instead of a bidding for resources with variable-price bids, the bids must be done at fixed prices? I very strongly feel that a resource-allocation system needs to have some flexibility. Imagine only one pseudo-firm wants some resource, but doesn't have the play-money. Isn't that a very silly situation? If the prices are fixed, it should be possible and indeed trivial for that pseudo-firm's spending to exceed its budget to get the resource.

What is the purpose of the budgets? To give the pseudo-firms power to access resources. If society decides to give pseudo-firm A twice the budget society gives to pseudo-firm B for the next period, our working assumption is that society evaluates what A will do as more important than what B will do (even though the two decisions might be made by two different committees without a single person being a member of both). If we have to state any sort of ratio of importance here, we assume that what pseudo-firm A will do is deemed as twice as important by society compared to B. (I'm assuming here A and B are in the same tier. Like in the system with flexible prices, we can have lexicographic tiers of importance for the pseudo-firms, so that a lower tier only gets the leftovers from the higher tiers.)

Suppose the spending period isn't over yet so no new budgets are yet available, but both pseudo-firms are already out of play-money for accessing resources. They are going into minus. I'm using this phrasing for a reason. I'm NOT saying they are "going into debt", because they won't have to pay back anything. Any pseudo-firm's play-money account, whether positive or negative, gets reset to zero at regular intervals and it gets a new budget.

Suppose there is a resource that nobody is bidding for except A and B, each asking for all of it. (Despite using fixed prices here, I'm still using the term "bids", because like with variable-price bidding the requests are not instantly approved, instead we wait for a while till bids are closed; and if the demand exceeds what's in stock, we allocate the stuff in a way that follows a simple rule that has nothing to do with the order in which the bids arrived.) Suppose both A and B are in minus. Again, it is clear that the resource should be assigned despitPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>2564859
>We can even split up the same resource and make available some amount of it in each system
I've been thinking along these lines. the plan amounts to a set of entitlements to resources. beyond the plan we could have spending money, but firms choosing to use their money instead of plan allocation get lower priority. for this to work we also need firms to produce enough of a surplus that such spontaneous orders can be accommodated. in other words we should plan for a bit of an excess

They don't even vet parties before asking them to come because they're that confident. Straight up CIA fronts like Haz's ACP showed up.

>>2565270
Or maybe they are not a CIA asset?

China does this all the time with international communist/socialist parties, besides the russian communist party specifically is allied to Putin

>>2565270
China likes anyone who will suck up to them, Zyuganov is a great Russian chauvinist who regrets the USSR time because "Russia was bigger and most powerful then", Russia yeah, not the union. He also says the struggle between civilizations replaced class struggle which is revisionist and fascist.
So it's not surprising they would say hello to CIA burger nazbols
