Socialism will save us all (technology edition)

[rote fahne]

But Russia's economy did grow faster than America's for many years even with the handicap of the Stalinist dictatorship.

Economies with lower level of production usually have faster growing rates once they get awake.

Concept of diminishing returns.

Well it's not happened in Africa or India has it?

What has not happened there?

I figured overdo it just to be safe since it's obvious sound and pictures MUST accompany anything said on the internet for it to believed. Should I scan my MM in Music Theory for you too?

Matt's a good guy and a good player (guy on the left). Apparently they do well for themselves with the wedding gigs.

You must understand that it's hard to believe there are two stickists with right wing politics regularly posting on the Ableton forum...

Uh, you think I have right-wing politics?

When have I ever espoused any right-wing beliefs?

Ooohh, that's right. Ideologues, whether left or right, always believe that if someone disagrees with them or criticizes them then they MUST be on the other side.

Gotcha.

Yep, in reality the left can be right on some points, and the right can be right on some points. Or wrong. Its never that one of the sides is completely right on all points.

To conclude then that the center centrists are the most right is false too.

To conclude that all issues can ever be simple enough to have one "right" or "wrong" way to think about them is the ultimate falsehood.

Or is it?

Its all viewpoint.

The Van Cliburn competition is going on now too. First one since his death earlier this year.

He cannot be "right-wingy" because he is THE NIHILIST. He believes IN NOTHING.

Never heard of, will see if I can find some of his music on the internet to listen to.

Here's a string quartet by Tristan Keuris.

For me people are free to believe what they want.

Their economies have not got going

I dont have a clue what you are about to say, but in case you want to tell me that their economies have stayed the same since ww2, then I'm done with you.

I'm not going to waste my time discussing with an idiot, you know?

[lowshelf]

Their economies have not got going

Central and Southern Africa are doing great, for the most part, with growth rates that Europe can only dream of. Not just for resources, but it's taking business investment capital and personnel away from Europe. Other than that, I won't get into how utterly amazing Libya's economy was before NATO gatecrashed, it's too depressing, but it would probably show up this thread's Transformers-versus-Gobots conflab.

That diagram has nothing to do with the parameter we discussed, that is the gross national income.

As i've said before, countries at a lower level of production will have higher growing rates than countries higher up in the curve.

There's 100 million germans, and 1 billion chinese, still the gdp of china is only two times the gdp of germany.

So china is lower in the curve, and they can have higher growing rates.

Here's a list of African countries by GDP.

Congo has a great potential. 5 million people killed there recently is a good indicator.
