They are connecting it to China though!

There is a NK internet, that China helped to build. Access and use of internet is increasing a lot in NK.
What if you were born into a Thornberries esque family, grew up traveling the world as your researcher and adventurer parents did their studies in the wilds, ancient ruins etc.
You fell in love with adventure and ancient mysteries, so after graduating from adventurer college (you were a legacy admission), you intern for [initial quest giver for campaign].
Easy one, done off the top of my head.
Cool little story and all, but Canada is the furthest thing away from socialist.
Socialism is not when the government does stuff. And the more stuff it does, it doesn’t get more socialist. Even if it does A LOT of stuff, it still won’t be communism.
Socialism/communism is the method and path through which the working class will liberate itself. It’s the death of classes and class struggle through the dictatorship of the proletariat.
Most people have fallen for neolib propaganda… of “we don’t have enough money for free universal healthcare”, “if you want free university we’ll need to raise taxes” etc etc.
They think the government is a household.
As I said, the initial inflation was caused by supply chains shock. Many countries had lockdowns. Like China, who produces the majority of everything anyone purchases around the world. Then when the lockdowns ended there was a shortage of shipping containers.
Inflation is caused when money is printed and sits in financialized investment. If it’s used to increase productivity it causes the opposite.
China has been running massive deficits (printing money like crazy) for over a decade and they have very consistent and low inflation.
It’s just that this argument, based on things that are not facts since the 70s, is used to cut social programs, investment in education, infrastructure etc.
When it makes no sense. The gvmt is not gonna go broke from paying its programs. It prints its own money, and all its debt is denominated in dollars.
We SHOULD cut military spending, subsidies to harmful industries, to private prisons, police forces etc. The way the money is spent SHOULD reflect the will of the people more.
But this argument about “revenue” and “public debt” are literally from the mouths of establishment neoliberal ghouls who have no objective other than enriching their friends. It’s not reality and is only used for harm.
That was only true when money had any relation to a physical good like gold.
Fiat money dominates, and it’s not bound by anything.
Like I’m not saying any crazy conspiracy theory. It’s just how the world has worked since Nixon…
How is it wrong if it’s factually what happens now? People have a “common sense” understanding of how the government works, and THAT is wrong.
Ever since fiat became the norm, all governments all over the world that print their own money and have debts denominated in their own currency simply print money to spend, for their budget. That is a FACT.
Only countries that have the majority of their debt denominated in another currency (the dollar mainly) that face inflation when printing money.
The US and Europe printed trillions during covid, and that barely caused a blip in inflation. Inflation only came after supply chains shock and the war.
Like do some basic research, if I’m so obviously wrong it will be very easy to see..:
Ski mask? Only do (Minecraft) crime during the winter? 🤷♂️
