“Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is; it is the act whereby one part of the population imposes its will upon the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannon”
From personal experience I can say that the stock market of less financialized economies (like China, and to a lesser extent Germany) aren’t that good for investing. As a proof just look at the performance of the US stock market (most financialized economy in the world) against the stock market of virtually any other country, you’ll find out that the US stock market very often performs better. At the expense of the real, material, economy.
(Just to clarify I’m neither a financial expert nor a big investor, just somebody who’s saving for retirement since the pension system in my country is a complete joke)
Breaking news: for the first time ever, 2 wrongs make a right
What are you going to do about it? Complain more on the same internet invented mostly by the country you hate?
You don’t like slavery, yet you’re using Latin characters, who were invented by the Romans? Checkmate!
Another map that i found so that our American comrades can undestand better (no offense, underfunded schools n all that, but the average American probably cant find ukraine on a map)
Ukraine is in blue, the parts occupied by Russia are in green and the “huge and glorious” ukrainian advance into Kursk is in yellow.
Yea, wish we had a green race just like we had a space race during the 1st cold war, at leadt something useful would come out of it.
The liberal veneer of civility goes away in the moment you criticize their idols.they cant fathom somebody that doesn’t like mr joe “saviour of the world” biden or mrs kamala “sent here by god himself” harris since they live in political ecochambers, so the only possibile explanation is that Russia pays a bunch of people to post normal people’s opinions online (most people are not hardliner diehard democrats)
Russia doesn’t exist, it’s all Russian propaganda.
How will they enforce it? I’m sure big/medium businesses will comply, but how can you track a cash transaction between private citizens?
Furthermore in the country where I live (Italy, one of EU founding members) more than 60% of independent professionals (partite iva) evade/elude taxes in some way or another, and it’s very common (so common that every Italian experienced it many times in their lives, me included) for small businesses and professionals to offer you a slight discount if you pay cash under the table (no receipt, so no taxes) and, even if we have an entire police force dedicated to financial crimes, the submerged economy is just so big that they can’t deal with it now, imagine when they’ll have to arrest/fine everybody that accepts more than €3000 in cash.
What somebody writes on a piece of paper and what happens in the real world are 2 very distinct things, many stores in Italy don’t accept credit cards even if it’s against them law, and only a minuscule fraction of them gets fined.
The EU has extremely nazi-esque control on the private financial life of its citizens (the state monitors your bank account, to open a bank account you need to give every info about u in the future they’ll ask for your DNA probably, if you withdraw/deposit a “suspect” amount of money our IRS will come after your ass, ane you need to prove your innocence basically guilty untill proven otherwise, ecc, there are a thousand examples, I’m sure EU citizens can relate) but I can’t see how they’ll be able to track pieces of paper.
TLDR I can’t even see how they will be able to enforce this law, especially when we talk about small businesses/independent contractors, and the situation gets even funnier when its a transaction between 2 private individuals.
You too oppo.
Amazon didnt pay a penny in taxes where i live, theyre giant criminals yet they dont need to use cash to evade taxes.
Trump: evil dictatorial genocide
Biden: acceptable, respectable genocide
Obama: What genocide?
Biden cant even run, let alone run a country
Turns out if you’re a rich country and don’t spend trillions on war and financing terrorists, you can achieve great stuff for yourself and the whole world, but who will think about the poor MIC executives? They have families to feed you know.
Also common China W
YOU TOO OPPO
Let me say this ad clearly as i can:

5 minutes later: I am… Yeah as I said, I’m the president of Russia.
OK appatently only a few countries can benefit from this policy
China announced on May 6, 2024 that visa-free policy provided to citizens of 12 countries including France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands was extended to the end of 2025, which was previously effective till the end of November this year. Benefiting from the policy, citizens of these 12 countries can enter China without a visa and stay for at most 15 days.
From May 15, 2024 on, all foreigners, in despite of their nationalities, arriving in China by cruise ship can enjoy visa-free stay for up to 15 days. The allowed stay areas are the whole China coastal regions including Shanghai, Hangzhou, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and its capital Beijing.

China will grant visa-free policy among New Zealand, Australia and Poland passport holders from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025.
