Capitalism, Government, and You

[safeorigin]

In the interest of having a meaningful discussion about the role of governments, I have decided to post this series of videos which some of you may find interesting or enlightening. Of course, some of you may object to it but I only ask that you keep an open mind.

Ah... Libertarianism. Very ideal form of government. Unfortunately, not one that will work in the real world.

People would rather pay taxes than deal with their problems on their own. The voting class will always vote more benefits for themselves "for free" from the government rather than taking a more responsible stand on fiscal issues.

Eto summary notes ko when I studied world history, government and economic systems. Pardon the text kse rush ko Lang Ginawa yan sa notes ng ipad1 ko pa 2010

Jesus died on the cross in the hands of traitor Jews and the roman Empire.

Jesus resurrection and as ascension made a fanatic of the 12 apostles and proceeded on their mission of spreading Christianity towards the Mediterranean region.

Majority of the 12 apostles were martyred ( crucified) but their cause lived on.

Roman Empire became besieged with internal corruption and bickerings which Gradually weakened them to the new threat of the barbarian hordes.

Fall of western Roman Empire entered the Dark Ages. Eastern Roman Empire cut off but persevered.

The Dark Ages was literally hell on earth and thus the people embraced Christianity as only hope for survival.

When most of Western Europe is organized and Christianized, they launched crusade against Jerusalem to retake Jesus' domain.

The Muslims fought back and drove the Crusades as well as the East Roman Empire in the states of Venice and Florence.

The defeated Crusades and the Eastern Roman Empire people who took refuge in boundary of East and West Roman Empire, brought with them the culture as well as ancient Greek and Roman Culture.

Renaissance starts in Florence.
And then the Age of Enlightenment.
And then the Scientific Revolution
And then the Industrial Revolution

The industrial revolution sparked the mass and efficient production of goods as well as weapons.

The mass production of weapons led to the armaments of of new Age Empires such as England, France, Dutch, Japan, Russia, Prussia (Germany),and the new kid on the block - United Republics of America.

The Germanic countries who were also descendants of the barbarian hordes who put an end to the ancient Roman Empire renewed their ideals of domination.

and thus World War I and World War II happened.

If the Axis powers succeeded in conquering the entire European and Pacific Theater, then we would have entered Dark Ages Part II.

in Dark Ages I, Christianity became the savior.

Dark Ages II didnt happen or as simply put history didn't repeat itself, bec of sleeping giant - America! as leader of the modern Crusades.

After the apocalyptic event of WW2, people were divided to 2 economical systems: capitalism (democracy) or socialism (communism) - the iron curtain.

In late 20th century, communism collapsed and capitalism is also in danger of crashing if it will not embrace laissez fare or globalization.

Globalization is threatened by the yet again the ancient protectionism policies of which the War on Terror starts.

judge it if you like but that's my true understanding of history, and the role of religion that paved way for science, economics, and capitalism.

OB wala ka bang pre-Jesus Christ history? May government na rin naman nung time na yun dapat i-consider mo din.

Kung may gusto man akong klase ng government, siguro yun yung sa mga Scandinavian countries.

Minsan pag nag-tour ka ulit sa Europe yun naman puntahan mo tapos kwento mo ulit samin para naman may first-hand insights kami.
