keg Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 A little bit longer than 24 hrs, a few years ago some economists did a study into such a scenario of the world's wealth being redistributed equally. The outcome of the study was within a year or two there would be mega rich people and mega poor people once again (but not necessarily the same people who are rich/poor now) they believed the criminals and the clever would prosper. You get my point though? Human nature will be what it will be.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandringstar Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 trump dident set out to play any blinder, he allowed himself to get pressured by the hawks, I suspect he wont make the same decision again, America needs fixing, Syria needs no more damage from anyone, he needs to keep his eye on his manifesto pledges. Someone please remind me of what happened to Russia when they thought they could play it rough with Afghanistan in the 1980s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 It was lawless - Russia invaded, lost and withdrew. Fast forward tens of years, swap Russia for America and still the country does as it pleases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandringstar Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 look at how they liked it when kruschev parked a few nukes on cuba? And cuba wasn't u.s. territiory. Admittedly it was very provocative, what with communism and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
four-wheel-drive Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 I do not now what to make of Trump but the way that he is letting himself be bullied by others worries all of this rubbish about how bad Russia is its all down to the arms companies wanting him to buy more guns bombs planes etc etc what really worries me is the UK spouting off that Russia is behind all of the problems in the world I am beginning to wish that I had voted to stay in the EU if only to stop these war mad people we have got in power.

Rewulf Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 trump dident set out to play any blinder, he allowed himself to get pressured by the hawks, I suspect he wont make the same decision again, America needs fixing, Syria needs no more damage from anyone, he needs to keep his eye on his manifesto pledges. Someone please remind me of what happened to Russia when they thought they could play it rough with Afghanistan in the 1980s. Whether he set out to do it or not, the results are very much welcome in his camp. And no, next time he needs to run it past the house, but cant you see how this has panned out? No one dare condemn his actions (as much as theyd like to) without being seen to sympathise with gassing kids. And Im not being funny here, but Syrias doing a pretty decent job of destroying itself, how on earth is it ever going to go back to how it was ? As far as his manifesto pledges, he ' didnt ' have the house support to put them through, now , he might. The Russians got defeated in Afghan, by thinking they could walk in and do what they wanted, when the Yanks started supplying stingers and anti tank rockets to the Mujahiddin, the fight became too costly to continue, proxy war, get used to it.

Walker570 Posted April 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Your not serious four wheel drive, The numpties in Brussels have caused all of the problems in Eastern Europe. As Nigel said, " You poke the bear and your going to get the result you don't expect" or words to that effect. How many innocent people have been killed and maimed? What about the airliner brought down by a Russian supplied rocket. ALL of that because the useless overpaid berks in Brussels had to poke their noses in, in an attempt to enlarge there income and land to control. Trump told the world he would not take excreta from anyone and he has just proved it beyond doubt. Fat porky Kim must now be pacing the floor, wondering which hole to crawl down. Huge US battle group steaming from Singapore to lay off the Korean peninsula. If Kim decides to fire another rocket I would not be surprised if the USA shoots it down ... just for practise like. Kim is a maniac and as soon as he thinks he can he will use a nuke. He needs stopping now and I am sure Trump pointed this out to the Chinese at the recent meeting and he got an invite to visit China later this year, which does not point to them having any bad feelings.

I reckon you're right, and after they've shot it down they'll rain hell fire and damnation down on the area it came from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
