    I doubt its bullshit however it seemed like a way to sell merch. but then again, Richard Gage took time away from his business. got to make a dollar. just, It cheapens the "Cause" of finding out the real truth.

    if it was shotty work, the buildings could just fall apart. like rebar not welded but twist-tied in concrete not designed for buildings. These twin towers had welded box columns encased in reinforced concrete designed to hold 5 times redundancy loads. it held up to huricane force winds for 36 and 41 years (One finished in 1969 and the second one in 1974)

    one big ass bomb that collapsed 6 floors in the "Bathtub" which is the foundation. that was reinforced with more modern building material. which saved the life of firefighters and tourist in Building WTC3 the Marriott tower underneath. it was partially destroyed with the 1993 bombing.

    the planes did some serious damage. I won't deny that. and floors sagged. but there is resistance. and the building peeled outward lessening the weight. yet it just kept going with no resistance. nearly freefall speeds.

    LOL Something had to have brought that thing down outside of a collapse. even in Earthquakes, building sandwiches but they have floors between sandwichs still standing intact.

    building 7, big area torn by a piece of steel (oddly, unexplained how it was thrown so far in a collapse) 800 feet from WTC1 and WTC2. that's 2 and a half football fields away. and it caught fire. but it neatly fell into its own footprint.

    I can see a collapse but this is silly to think all three of these just fell into themselves.

    also Im a "Fed who pretending to be crazy"

    or some shit. for 40 years I have been faking taking meds for lols.


    a part of my brain was damaged. I have had an incident. it affects moods and the way shit gets distorted. however other parts of my mind work. I can see patterns of bullshit. you can't write people off like that. Einstein had OCD and Autism and was said to have talked to imaginary friends.

    I wonder what he would of thought regarding 9/11

    Life isn't simple. different people react in different ways. Grow the hell up.

    Honestly, Jig.. I would think someone like you could see this didn't add up.

    maybe it's your culture not to question "Offcial"

Originally posted by Lanny Honestly if you just dumped more money into the accounts of people with significant savings (e.g. people with several years of their current spend rate saved) then you really wouldn’t expect there to be significant inflation. If you subscribe to the “inflation is a function of money supply” model of inflation (which isn’t a given but w/e) then you have to realize that long term savings aren’t an active part of the money supply and spending power really shouldn’t be significantly impacted by people with money they aren’t spending getting more money that they’re not going to spend

    not just to people with SIGNIFICANT savings, but to everyone with turkish lira in their bank account, ie all turks.
  9. Originally posted by aldra there's a lot more value to controlling the oil trade by proxy than just using it to float the dollar

    US controls the oil trade directly with UN rubber stamp rather than USD. Theres really no need to control via proxy.

  11. Originally posted by aldra OPEC's oil output capacity, and hence their power and stability, is waning.



    Any good sauce on that? It seems like a macho thing with the Saudis that they have loads of oil and can pump more whenever they feel like it. I wonder if the same situation that lead to $100+ oil in 2008 will reoccur. Back then the Saudis blamed it all on America. I don't think the Saudis respect America, especially not the woke tranny BLM America of 2022. When Brandon asked for more oil production the Saudis basically said "no".

    Goddam Americans whine about the price of filling up their gas guzzlers a lot. They were so used to the cheap oil during the pandemic they just can't cope with having to actually pay for the rare and high quality chemical product they are wasting to haul their fat arses around.

    yeah, not yet at the level I was thinking of but it certainly has the potential for it, especially now that an Eastern European taskforce has been deployed there.

    I know a bunch of countries in the region have been surviving on government fuel subsidies but I didn't expect such a fast and violent reaction the moment they were repealed

    They don't even seem to be denying it. The media aren't even putting out a narrative about a Libyan style popular uprising as far as I have seen. "The people are rising up against...blah blah blah"

    In Syria there actually were organic protests against rising fuel costs. For whatever reason oil and gas rich shithole countries all love fuel subsidies. Instead of just using the oil and gas revenue for government services like pensions and education they insist on siphoning from it to provide the population with retarded cheap fuel, so the people who benefit are taxi drivers, smugglers, and truckers. It fucks with price signals and with the functioning of the market, and ultimately it doesn't help.

    NGOs pushing it to turn violent but they don't really have to work hard. in these countries fuel prices are prohibitively high and the only way people are able to get anything done is by the government subsidising fuel costs, otherwise nobody would be able to drive and businesses would be largely unable to operate. I don't really know why they specifically chose now to end them but it hits everyone hard.

    'overthrowing the despotic government' or whatever the narrative is this time will do nothing to solve the problem

    I don't believe fuel subsidies are required. For instance Ukraine is dirt poor, but fuel is about West European prices (slightly over €1 a litre for petrol for instance). Gas is slightly cheaper thanks to Russia subsidising those fuckers for no real reason.

    When something is expensive you just make an effort to use less of it and pass on the costs to your customers/employers.

    nevermind, you're right, I just looked at the actual prices.

    initial riots were over the subsidy - LPG was at around 15c a litre, the subsidy was removed and it went up to 30 or so, then the government walkit it back to around 12c.

    the subsidies are back in place, now it's just another general anti government colour revolution (they're trying to use the momentum to get subsidies on food now), which explains why CSTO was so quick to send in a taskforce
