Economy artificially run into a crisis is an instrument of enslavement in the hands of a few - a 'virtual senate' of lenders and investors. You can't cure the enjoyment of servitude by those fearing the crisis.
consigned to the dustbin of history where they belong
Leon Trotsky referring to the Mensheviks: You are pitiful, isolated individuals! You are bankrupts. Your role is played out. Go where you belong from now on - into the dustbin of history! (25 October 1917)
U.S. President Ronald Reagan: freedom and democracy will leave Marxism and Leninism on the ash heap of history as it has left other tyrannies (a speech to the British House of Commons; 8 June 1982)
Either in the past illusion never changed into something real though there is a man who claims that dawałem z siebie wszystkom, i mądrość, i odwagie...
Both the long term future and the short term future prices can be higher and they can be lower.
Not that they always go up. Those are two different statements
If the short term future price would always go up then the long term future would always go up as well but as a means of short term prices during the time of the whole period of time you measure the long term future price - that's elementary.
Future price contain a premium for holding the contract and this decays over time.
Here you are using technical terms. What is premium? What is contract? And what it is that decays over time. Why do you get into the technicalities of that sort? I do not understand that.
I didn't ask him because this stuff is too difficult for me. I would be intimidated by the complexity of investors' language. But can you explain in a plain English what he means?
God, what they done to my country, in the middle of Europe, just to make them profit
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time that those sharks will eat us one by one but I say unto you that at last the children of the Devil will not inherit the Earth.
Those taking part were easily recognizable as they were wearing the obligatory KOD sticker.
Maybe they defended democracy everywhere?
A poet once wrote in defence of workers rights, refering to the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947:
YOU WHO WRONGED
You who wronged a simple man Bursting into laughter at the crime, And kept a pack of fools around you To mix good and evil, to blur the line, Though everyone bowed down before you, Saying virtue and wisdom lit your way, Striking gold medals in your honor, Glad to have survived another day, Do not feel safe. The poet remembers. You can kill one, but another is born. The words are written down, the deed, the date. And you'd have done better with a winter dawn, A rope, and a branch bowed beneath your weight.
Washington, D. C., 1950
His attitudeds were best expressed in his book Kontynenty page 66:
J., który poza tym, że pisze książki, pracuje w fabryce, opowiada, że nie zauważył żadnego w ogóle stosunku do Taft-Hartley Bill u swoich kolegów robotników. "Za dużo mają sadła w pasie, kiedy schudną i spostrzegą się, będzie za późno"
And the poem occurred more universal.
Do you guarantee that they were protesting against the current political situation in Poland and not in defence of democracy anywhere and everywhere?
the Dear Leader, Chairman Mao the Dear Leader, Chairman Kim Jong-il the Dear Leader, Chairman Pao the Dear Leader, Chairman Obama the Dear Leader, Chairman Clegg the Dear Leader, Chairman Mao-bama the Dear Leader, Chairman Robert Mugabe the Dear Leader, Chairman Gates the Dear Leader, Chairman Gupta the Dear Leader, Chairman McDonnell
Why anyone would sit down and watch Polish TV as an evening's entertainment is beyond my understanding.
I did not watch Polish television unless there are some good programs from the past. Dumbing down made some audience too dumb to watch Kabaret starszych panów or even to enjoy themselves waching Sylwester Chęciński's comedies like Sami swoi.
The sole motivation of the above-mentioned string-pullers is the acquisiton of wealth and power.
The master puppeteer is always behind the scenes pulling the strings connected to little puppets. You can delude the public by an illusion of participation, that is democracy, but only within the confinements of their scene, that is televised political shows; however, when you are at large, you somehow loose that illusion.
If voting made any difference they wouldn't let us do it.
The investment theory of party competition or the investment theory of politics is a political theory developed by professor Thomas Ferguson - Right Turn: The Decline of the Democrats and the Future of American Politics.
The theory focuses on how business elites play the leading part in political systems. Sometimes it is summed up as: elections are occasions when groups of investors join together to invest to control the state
Indeed, they most likely will share the same fate that happened to the Roman empire, they vanished because of foreigners.
Chronicle of the deeds of Richard I Richard of Devizes, late 12th century, English chronicler:
All sorts of men crowd together there from every country under the heavens. Each race brings its own vices and its own customs to the city. No-one lives in it without falling into some sort of crime. Every quarter of it abounds in grave obscenities. The greater a rascal a man is, the better a man he is accounted... Behold, I prophesy to you: whatever evil or malicious thing that can be found in any part of the world, you will find in that one city... You will meet with more braggarts there than in all France; the number of parasites is infinite.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Thanks for your insight Johnny, its been good to be able to discuss two topics with you without your shadow trolls spoiling it
Unlike the United States, other nations offer universal health care, free education, and an almost universal high standard of living. There is as a result, very little crime and almost no violent crime . The U.S. on the other had, funnels more than half of their GNP into military, spying, destabilisation of other countries, and associated endeavours. Furthermore, unlike more civilised societies, the United States allows their citizens not merely to own multiple handguns, but also military assault rifles and even machine guns.
Lately the surviving Kaczyński twin seems to be taking over Lech Wałęsa's habit of saying things that don't make any rational or logical sense whatever.
Lech Wałęsa:
1. Przybyłem do was niejako w trzech osobach - I came here in three persons, as it were. 2. Jestem za, a nawet przeciw - I am for and even against... 3. Nie można mieć pretensji do Słońca, że kręci się wokół Ziemi - You cannot blame the Sun that it runs round the Earth.
4. Tonący brzytwy, chwyta się byle czego - A drowning man clutches at anything.
Jarosław Kaczyński:
W potocznym sensie znaczenia, słowo zbrodnia jest adekwatne do tego co się stało. Ale już w sensie prawnym nie.
In a colloquial sense of the word crime, it adequatily describes what has happend. But in a legal sense, it is not inadequate.
Does anyone else have any idea what (if anything) that was supposed to mean?
In a colloquial sense of the word crime, it adequatily describes what has happend. But in a legal sense, it is not inadequate.
Sorry for mistake. The translation should be more like this:
In a colloquial sense of the word crime, it adequatily describes what has happend. But in a legal sense, it is inadequate.
their language was heavily influenced by some Slavic languages and they are mostly orthodox Christians as far as I know .
Romanina is a Romance language like French, Italian, Spanish or Portuguese.
From Wikepedia:
The lexical similarity of Romanian with Italian has been estimated at 77%, followed by French at 75%, Sardinian 74%, Catalan 73%, Portuguese and Rhaeto-Romance 72%, Spanish 71%. In modern times Romanian vocabulary has been strongly influenced by French, Italian and other languages.
While most of Romanian grammar and morphology are based on Latin, there are some features that are shared only with other languages of the Balkans and not found in other Romance languages. Nonetheless, Romanian together with Greek and Romani present the lowest "factor of Balkanization" among the languages commonly included in the Balkan sprachbund.
