Did I take that too far? Is it still too soon after Brexit to hit back with the Thatcher?

Your capitalists aren't more responsible than ours Rum. They're pigs.

What do you suppose she meant by 'the economics of liberty'? How did they go about finding this 'liberty', which had been lost?

I found mine under the sofa, last place I looked.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

You know you'd never, ever use that thing for fear of your stoner mates breaking it.

Re: Should Communism Be Declared A Criminal Ideology?
She was a free market capitalist, at least in theory, and the liberty she was referring to was the freedom to exploit the working population. Thus she set about dismantling unions and the infrastructure of ordinary working class people, who she somehow believed also suffered at the hands of the left here.Sean Hayden wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 7:31 pmWhat do you suppose she meant by 'the economics of liberty'?

I agree with you that our capitalists are just as nasty for the most part as yours. But I also believe they are generally speaking more regulated in their desire to exploit.

That is the nature of the beast anywhere in the world. But you guys allow them much more freedom than is wise. Capitalism will always stray into a robber baron mentality unless corralled by strong government, unions, and an educated public.Sean Hayden wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 7:30 pmYour capitalists aren't more responsible than ours Rum.

It's the machine gun that goes "bong bong bong" instead of "bang bang bang".

Yep, I think laklak and you are correct. As for what it's modelled after, that would be the WWII Imperial Japanese Army Type 96 light machine gun.
