Man, factory made food is going to totally beak some people's perception of reality.

I pray he's actually a troll from somewhere else.

... account for human nature, not ignore it. One of the many issues that a central economy presents is that it reduces the number of decision makers, creating less points of critical failure for the system. There's a reason why market driven socialist economies regularly deliver better results.

Short term thinking is the historic norm for humanity, regardless of economic philosophy. There is a difference between a system's intended result and the actual one.

It's about times for the two main parties in the US to shatter. It's insane that 70-80% of Americans can agree on what the major societal issues are, but the political apparatus is so incredibly inept that they can't resolve things. Just like in the UK where institutional parties are collapsing.

Best place to cut it would be before it crosses from moskovia into Belarus. Given the probable outcry, UA should kill it where it enters their territory from Belarus.
