View Full Version : America's Money Makes The World Go Around

Didn't have time to reply to the other topics today so I thought I'd start one of my own.
To start with the corperations, we'll I'm in the state of Ontario. (Opps sorry forgot about the pretence, the "province" of Ontario.)Which is fueled with American Corperation's money, (They make the investments) which would be ok if it was their money. It's Canadian consumer money which was spent in the American owned stores which is all there is here. (Sorry guys but Roots Canada, Canadian Tire and Sam the Record Man are American owned, Canaidian pretenced.)(Don't worry I won't bring up the Free Trade Agreement I don't like to talk about consentual rape.) So American corperate money is buying who are Premier is, (One of the big election issues is who can bleed the corperations the most to keep the econimy going.)
This hasn't happened only in Canada, and it isn't just the corperations. The American government has control of a good chunk of the world's governments via trade agreements. Trade agreements are a great way to bully others into doing what you want, if America called for a trade block against France. France's neighbors wouldn't help them (...need....American....money to...survive.) so after awhile the ruler would fold and the Americans would have their way. (This all of course relys on wether the ratings a good military action would generate were needed or not.)
AMERICA HAS BOUGHT THE WORLD!
Or am I wrong??

You may be right...but dont be pissed at us for it...we just did it first...
Basically, America has been positioning itself since day one, trying to get to the top of the heap...weve probably used every method imaginable to get to where we are right now and Im sure we will contuniue to do so...and thats just fine with me...call me crazy, but if some dumb fucker in a foreign land has to die so that I can have my gouda cheese and jello puddin pops, so be it...just dont make me look at that shit while Im eating...

I'm not mad 3MAT3. I understand my role in today's global society. (Moo!) And if the world developed so that this can happen then it is getting what it asked for. But I hope you realize that the only reason your allowed to have your gouda cheese and jello pudding pops is because you were born in better financial classes of the U.S., not the Constituation, not your individuality, but the fact that you were born in the U.S. and your a needed number in the polls and a couple of extra dollars in the local sales. Once that's no longer needed you'll no longer be needed.
Actually something just hit me, why does such bought power have such trouble containing crime in their own borders, the answer...they don't, you apply what they have done on a global scale and apply to the concept of justice its basically the same thing. The people with money control the results of any court (via lawyers,specialists etc) they want. Justice is yours for a price...and if you don't have the money you "fall through the cracks" (thats the term the newspeople keep using right in their 'impact stories') and used as entertainment on that nights news.
Hhhmmm....I hope you can always have the money to buy your cheese and liquid vanilla flavored plastic or going by the practices that the government is using on any level or you might find yourself declared guilty by 12 of your peers. (I don't have to worry about this because I still have my government that doesn't use money to determine who is guilty or not but what the latest stats Canada survey saying how guilty a person is if they do such and such. http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/biggrin.gif )

Ok...what Im getting at is that if you refuse to use your intellect then you are a fucking steak on my table by choice and consent...to gain and hold onto power, every trick in the book and then some must be used to accomplish said goal...would you rather have the Ruskies in control?? No.
Sacrifices must be made for the well being of the few...if your not one of the few, too bad, get yourself there or be run down by the rest of us who are on our way...I have no respect or mercy for the less fortunate because usually(there are always exceptions) they are there through fault of their own...look at the homeless, why the fuck are they homeless?? Possibly mental illness, most likely they are fucking drunks who cant get their shit together...they have made bad choices and suffer for them, as do we all...life aint fair and it never will be, you just gotta deal...
About money buying justice, it only buys ability...all the money in the world couldnt have gotten The Menendez brothers off the hook...OJ lucked out(and thats where most of this sintement comes from)...I wont be declared guilty of jack or shit as long as expost facto is on the books...obeying the law(for now) is a cakewalk...
I look forward to continuing this one Tanis...

I don't want to be one of the few, (All it would take is me moving to the states the rest I can deal with easily myself.) I like being one of the many (Moo!) in Canada, getting all the perks of American Corperate rule while living in a safer, cleaner, unfriendlier country. (There is always a draw back http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif ) I've been to alot of the States and most of them the day or two I was there was too much, excluding Texas. Texas rocks, again I will praise Fort Worth and it's fully functioning police state running the downtown core.
Oh and Rogue you're right you won, all it cost you was your society.

What a lot of people ignore is the reason for this american economic domination is the simple fact that they are one of the hardest working peoples on Earth. They are just good at it. If you don't like it, don't whinge about it, improve yourself. Course, that's what Australia did, and as soon as we became too efficient for our own good, America slapped tariffs on us totally against their expressed policy. So...
DOWN DOWN USA! DOWN DOWN BUSH!

You don't have to...but we're still going to be here whether you like it or not...just because you're jealous that your puny little country can't do anything (let alone get along with eachother - the french and the english canadians) outside it's borders, doesn't mean you have to drag us down. Deal with it or kill yourself...America will still be here - yep...whether you like it or not. Do something about it economically...develop a better economy...try and compete instead of just being jealous...and if you're going to be hard core against the US...send back half of your food products and starve along with other products that keep your country going. We have the money because we know how to compete. Live with it...have your country do something about it...or kill yourself. *smooch* http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

We didn't slap that many tariffs on you...we just put a quota on how many of your stinkin sheep we import and how much wool we buy from you. (because the people here finally got smart enough to realize that we HAVE ENOUGH FUCKIN ROOM FOR SHEEP HERE. Not to mention, we could probably get it cheaper somewhere else or that some other country is wining because we won't try theirs, saying things like " but you try Australia's and New Zealands " *much whimpering*. Then the do the thing that catches our eye...they lower the price.) You're right...don't winge about it...try exporting to other countries instead of just us. (hmmm...wasn't just us that said "every little bit helps"...we're just the ones that proved it.) http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

Actually, you couldn't find it cheaper anywhere else - that's why we're pissed off. We make an effort, accept your good because you produce them cheaper than anyone else, we start producing something cheaper than you, so you start bitching and slap on tariffs. All because our farmers are better at their jobs than yours and yours started whingeing.

I have not been whining I'm just seeing who knew their place in society. (I don't personally give a shit to the political borders or who controls them.)
But just to deal with the whole French/English Canada thing...which country had a country dividing dispute that was solved through democratic measures and which country when faced with country dividing dispute tried to kill each other?....Hmmm let's see the Quebec referendum and the Civil War, and the LA Riots hmmm which happened where.
As for competition, can't have competition if the U.S. is too chicken to let it happen. Is it just a coincidence that everytime a Canadian company does well Americans force buy it or drive it too the ground?
And lastly as for starving to keep you out. Sure great take your money and get out! To hell with free trade! Of course I don't know how well you'll be, seeing that Alberta is one of the main providers for America's Natural Gas, Newfoundland is in the top 3 energy providers for the North Eastern United States, you take as much clean water in a day then my province (Ontario) uses in a week. Don't forget about Ontario timber which you guys take by the acre.
So you guys lose wood, water, elcetricity, and natural gas.
We lose Kraft Dinner, Tommy Hilfigure Clothing, Danielle Steele Books, HBO, Britney Spears and the corperations that are destroying our enviroment.
Now then you will be viewed as bullying the World's peacekeepers (shudder) so then we can get countries like Japan, England and Australia on our side. (If they kicked you out who would lose more?)

One point worth considering in this thread is America's "Loans" to third world countries. It is the role of global drug dealer using influence pedaling. All you do is hand over "free" money and let them get used to it. If they are doing something you don't like....no more "loans" until you do what I tell you.
That's my tax money those dicks are passing out like crack pipes in order to control the weak.
Sucks Huh?
