Oh boy Obama was more of a dictator.
 
 
Sorry but no.
 
No president is a dictator. There are branches of Government to prevent them from being that. Mainly the Legislative Branch and the Judicial Branch. If the President wants to be a dictator then why is he on twitter almost all the time calling people out like Rosie, Obama, and might I suggest UCLA Players, and Kap, and so much more. If he was a dictator he would get his way and jail all of them even Lavar Ball.

Indeed and at some point, what if the best plan, to get things done, and to get stuff done with the corruption at all levels, what people need is a president who have the balls to change things, and actually force the congress, the senate, and skip the rules of democracy.
 
then only their result would be judged. If that’s effective or not to put the country out of the shit accumulated over the 30, 40 past years.

Fair point.
 
It’s kinda an interesting human behavior though. You have all the money in the world, far more than enough for you to use, and yet you still want more money you’d never use. For what reason? None! You just like to have money! But never use it!
 
Weird, really.

You know, I believe Germany got a leader like that once: he wanted to change things and electing him seemed like a good idea at the time. His name was Adolf Hitler. Ring any bell?

Here and on many countries it would be, but this is not the decision of any government, it would be the presure of cable and telecom companies to change the prices and let the business determine it.  
Actually, we never had any. Some companies here (Orange and a few others) limits the bandwidth to services on 4g or even wifi hotspots. ISPs at some point used to even block P2P and a few other protocols.
 
Laws are different everywhere, but again, it’s you, as a consumer, as a person who pay who will decide. This is capitalism, don’t wait for mommy government to defend you all the time, vote with your Master Card, instead of being a blind consumer. That’s the thing and it’s always been, but that’s not politics here, it’s commonsense, it’s math. it’s logic, it’s business.
 
It’s not corproations or capitalism that created monopolies, but you, the consumers, who drool over the newest iPhone or makes memes out of a fucking McDonald’s sauce.
 
No one here knows shit about what’s going on. Net neutrality is not endangered unless you aren’t giving a fuck and stop having an influence over the market. People are using spooks and fear over a CNN article, a biased, abridged form of clickbait. If they could make an article or post about “Nasa found Aliens and we are all doomed” they would. Times Warner CNN and all these news media groups would be the first to profit from the loss of net neutrality, and will not do a shit to stop it but make you cry.
 
“Bwaaah look! Our mother corporation and the banks that funds us are pushing to take down net neutrality, so be mad at Trump! It’s all his fault!”

It is sad people still consider his charisma means he wasn’t bad.
 
I remember when he was selling Icann to places like China a lot of us said Net Neutrality would soon follow, and people said “It’s no big deal.” pretty much since who was doing it, it didn’t matter.
 
Well, look where we are now.

Honestly, someone should do a study on biological responses (in the brain) regarding greed. Like, make a survey with random people which puts them on a level 1-5 of “greediness”. Then, study their brains while they play a type of game focuses on currency, and see how the brain acts and the differences between participants. Compare that with the survey results.
 
That would be neat.

Wow. That’s pretty much it. They put so much faith into giant corporations like Google, Apple and others they became blind. Some still don’t think Disney of all companies is becoming a monopoly.
 
And now they just want a scapegoat to blame.

Also, I just realized that in Malaysia (my place), net neutrality doesn’t exist and literally nobody is bothered by it because Internet is already cheap.
 
Also, nobody uses mobile data to stream or watch videos. Social media uses so little data as it is and I only use 3Gb-6Gb per month.

Oh you know him too, fun because I made a post about him earlier.
 
@neutralgrey  
Exactly, that’s the regime we are in today because the consumers are no more actors, but just buy what the TV tells them to, and will accept to work for nothing, because even the unions are helping the corporations, and not the employees.
 
I totally agree, this is no more capitalism as it should be, but in some cases, like with EU regulations and especially here, how cable and telecom companies are lobbying, and much more with biological agriculture, or militaro industrial complex, when corporations are subsided by the government and merged into it, and powerful banksters ruling more than elected presidents… it’s worth being called corporate-socialism.
 
good luck draining the swamp.

Yep, and well, that’s what is happening. here too, the EU is also pushing the same model, hence my argument on how traditional democracy doesn’t change, and not gonna say we need a Hitler or a Stalin or any kind of “great comrade of the happy people” that will just shill for his perfect *ism, and repeat the same problems. But at least someone who is determined.
 
So my protip is: Let Trump do his job. Stop crying about it, he’s doing what he can. I’m also giving the same chance to our Micron, and so far, I’m going to say this once, and only once: this guy is more chaotic neutral than lawful evil, even if he’s a puppet of the banks. There are things that cannot be controlled and soon or late, they have to deal the fact they have to make compromises.  
It’s mathematical.
 
edit: to me all things “socialist” means one thing: submit to the mass, and obey.used at any sauce, any ingredients, shit is shit.

Oh, the UE is worse! Countries under the EU have little say what happens in their own country and who does? Some unelected bureaucrat in Germany, and they want to control more of Europe and have an army!
 
“But the EU’s not bad, guys! They wanna help people”
 
Yeah, but flooding countries, which “cheap labor” and you agree with that, but you still let them do it!
 
I honestly can’t understand the mental gymnastics of that. It’s like Stockholm syndrome.
 
“Those in charge are terrible and oppressing citizen. Let’s keep them, because we’re afraid of Far-right.
 
The funniest thing, is they are causing this “far-right” push, but never admitting what those in power are doing wrong, and just labelling anyone that disagrees with their decisions as “Far-right”
 
Talk about self-fulfilling prophecy.
