>Surprisingly not all tax havens are on the list.
Literally every country in the list is a tax haven, including the United States: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_as_a_tax_haven

thank you for this based way of quantifying 'worst country'.

>have a classy image abroad but they don't seem to embody it, more or less take advantage of it to boost their egos while being sleazeballs.
Americans have always known the truth. Our main stereotypes of Frenchmen is that they're rapey and they stink.

Dixies were going to try and invade Cuba and the rest of the Caribbean down to Venezuela, how would this have been progressive?

>>2846140
>were going to try
yes and fail. just like their yankee brothers. the difference is that a dixie capitalist state would never rise to the heights of the yankee capitalist state - the supreme hegemon

You’re recycling the alt history bullshit that cute trans Shay was pushing, the idea that the confederacy winning would have meant a communist slave revolt and a Soviet aligned south

>In practice, however, they generally produced less and faced shortages more frequently, only being surpassed by other countries where there was no even and post-Neolithic serfdom such as those in Africa, though they had modern technology (guns), they still used it for Neolithic purposes (Slavery).
This is what coombrainrot does to your noggin. Produced less lol. Clearly you did not do research. They produced A LOT, but sold it as exports.

>>2835489
> If production were guided solely by social needs, socialist countries should have surpassed capitalist countries in consumer goods and material abundance
They did and still do ? Socialist countries historically have performed better at industrialization and scientific sectors given their original starting point. The lack of material abundance in consumer goods is simply due to the absence of priority given to these goods and socialist countries opting to plan almost entirely for industrialization

<Cuba has good literacy and healthcare compared to its neighbors
<China is world leader in EV and in manufacture

I addressed the article, ideology doesn’t exist and Cambridge is a factory whose product is British prime ministers, therefore worthless

You simply didn't, you just shat on the chessboard and demanded victory.

>Civil wars featuring RS rebels tended to be robust insurgencies, that is, irregular wars that lasted longer and produced more battlefield fatalities compared to other civil wars. However, this superior capacity failed to translate into a higher rate of victories—hence, a “Marxist Paradox.”
That's cause the objetive of the revolutionary socialist is to radically transform society and abolish commodity production, wage labor and create a classless society, which is extremely difficult.

There' a reason every rich dipshit is a libertarian.

<You’ve got that eternal idiotic idea that if anarchy came it would come from the poor. Why should it? The poor have been rebels, but they have never been anarchists: they have more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn’t; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all. Aristocrats were always anarchists.

you have to pick one, anon.

if imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism
fascism is the highest stage of anti-communism

>>2845253
This. The only thing that actually unites them is terroristic repression of socialism and perhaps also autocratic government.

>>2845544
But libs also do it

bro what if trying to connect the fascisms together into one was a mistake. What if generic fascism doesnt exist? What if trying to make one generic fascism definition is doomed to failure and instead we should recognize the different fascsisms as seperate phenemona

>>2845797
Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

You had jews in Palestine even before zionism. The Ari synagogue was founded in the 1500s for exemple.

>>2845980
You have a PFLP flag even though the PFLP's position is for a one-state solution in which Jews would be welcome as equal citizens with the same rights as others while rejecting Israel's insistence that their war against Israel is a racial war aiming at eliminating every Jewish citizen and throwing him into the sea.

Jew derangement syndrome.

39 minutes in, Leone Castar says he looks for collaborators do develop a chapter how a postcapitalist judiciary would work. Well, I don’t use Discord or Zoom and I prefer to remain anonymous, so I will just drop my answer in this thread.

JURY SYSTEM

To get inspiration, we start with a brief look at a very simple analytical model: There is a group of people trying to answer some question about reality by voting between two options, one true and one false. Each person in the group got more intelligence than zero, so their chance of picking the right option from the two is a bit better than 50 %. Assume the same percentage for each person, with no particular correlation between people. That’s the model. What follows from this? Three things:

1. The banal thing: The best approach to finding the truth here is to just go with the option that gets more votes, not requiring a super-majority or people voting for representatives who then vote.
   
2. The beautiful thing: We can get arbitrarily close to being correct 100 % of the time if the group is big enough. These two conclusions are known as Condorcet’s Jury theorem.
   
3. A tricky detail: If you have a group size that is odd and you just add one person, the probability that the group gets the right decision just stays where it is. So the group size should be odd.
   
   

When it comes to punishment, I’m thinking of something a bit more complicated than just two options. I think the topic fits into a one-dimensional spatial model. I think such a model fits because we can think of prison time as a quantity shown on a line, and everybody agrees what more or less means here. This agreement is necessary, but not sufficient for a really good fit. It is also necessary that people see themselves as standing on a point on that line. A counter-example: A parliament discusses different proposals for military spending and there might be consensus on how to order these plans from small to big, but the politicians may not all see themselves as standing on one point on that line, but rather with each foot on one end. On that issue, one may be of the opinion: “Go big or go home.”

The punishment in a criminal case is to be decided not by a judge, but by the intePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I thought "wall of text"-anon was Leone since it's kind of his posting style but your post directly contradicts this

Are you Adam Smith anon from the /political economy/ thread?

>>2845874

If rights are not natural, how is it possible to violate them then?

And a much more important issue: One can always deliberately set themselves up with a normative framework that demands given rights be violated at least in given circumstances. You can shout "unnatural" or "evil" all you want and your opponent can simply "Yes. Fuck your rights."
