Jagmeet bent over backwards to appease folks like this and it left the party on the verge of complete oblivion. The sask and Alberta NDP need to respect the will of the members and work with Lewis

Unironically yes, real capitalism has never been tried. I will even grant that "real socialism has never been tried" if it means I get to say real capitalism has never been tried without being accused of double standards.

In 1960, the economic starting line for India and Pakistan was nearly identical. India’s per capita income was $84.93, and Pakistan’s was $82.02.  For the next thirty years, the two nations remained within striking distance of each other. However, the data for 2025, where India stands at $2,818 and Pakistan at $1,707, demonstrates the story of "The Great Decoupling."  It is a chronicle of how one nation eventually broke the shackles of a stagnant socialist past to embrace its civilizational potential. At the same time, the other became trapped in a cycle of radicalization, feudalism, and foreign debt. 1. 1960–1980: The Illusion of the "Golden Decade" Early data shows Pakistan often leading India (e.g., 1970: Pakistan $166 vs. India $114). This wasn't due to superior Pakistani productivity, but rather "Borrowed Growth."  Pakistan aligned itself as a Cold War client state, receiving massive infusions of Western aid and military hardware. This created an artificial middle class without a deep industrial base. Meanwhile, India was held back by the "License Raj," a byproduct of Nehruvian socialism that viewed profit as a vice and entrepreneurs with suspicion.  This "Hindu Rate of Growth" (which was actually a Socialist Rate of Growth) suppressed India’s natural mercantile spirit for decades.

Beautiful seaside fitness plaza in a third-tier Chinese city Weihai. As the country rises, China is placing greater emphasis on people's fitness and investing heavily in public sports infrastructure.

Pelosi and the other San Francisco liberals made 1,000 arrests of Food Not Bombs over eight years for sharing food with the hungry. They even tortured some of us. I spent 500 days in jail, nine days in a stress position cage and faced 25 to life in prison.

Today’s final count: 7 million Americans. 3,000 cities. Every state. Philadelphia. Atlanta. Dallas. St. Paul. DC. San Francisco. 500,000 in London. Tel Aviv in the streets. A human banner on the Pacific Ocean spelling out: TRUMP MUST GO NOW. One of the largest single-day demonstrations in American history. The founders settled the kings question in 1776. America settled it again today. Never stop connecting the dots.

One of the most beautiful aspects of capitalism

the neoliberal mindset is more that we already live like royalty and don't appreciate it enough, and should appreciate and recognize the systems that make it possible

This is such an unbelievably dark timeline. Would have been too marcabre and far-fetched an episode for Black Mirror in 2012.

Bad immigration economics assumes every extra person is one less seat. Good economics notices they also bring a seat, a side dish, and demand for the bloke selling drinks. ⁣ ⁣ The first story is fear; the second is how economies work.
