>he still thinks the 08 crash was caused by deregulation.

AHHHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

apparently you cant read. I'm not interested in your retarded theories on the crash

my understanding is that the southern strategy was to capture anger at the government for the civil rights victories of the 60's and direct it at regulations that fetter business. All in the name of profit of course.

This strategy is still working, notice that the GOP promises trade regulation and tax cuts as well as getting rid of illegal immigrants. Watch what actually happens though, since exporting jobs, importing cheap labor, and cutting taxes on the wealthy are all normal agendas of business. The GOP runs on a populist platform but delivers primarily to biz.

The libertarian and anti-establishment types found on both sides but particularly on the right are just useful idiots. Nobody is going to ban abortion, nobody is going to fetter the businesses that sponsor them, and nobody is going to reduce the size of the military/industrial complex that employs them. That would be silly.

of course this betrayal just results in more anger with the government and the cycle continues.

here of all places it should be clear. Racism and muh free markets go hand in hand. Convince poor uneducated whites that they're failing while minorities are succeeding not because of social factors, but because the government is interfering in free markets that would otherwise elevate them.

and maybe they're right, though history shows there was always a large class of whites that didn't thrive, even when minorities were enslaved and racism was part of the institution.

fact is like your cartoon shows, most businesses love regulation. We just want regulation that protects us and harms our competitors is all. And sometimes we get it.

I think he has a point regarding the neo-con movement but it didn't start in a vacuum.

Reagan for example pushed the popular idea of granting amnesty to illegal immigrants while increasing border security to stop more from coming. He did in fact grant amnesty but overlooked border security because only one of those goals is in line with what businesses wanted.

it's worth looking at what conservatives actually do, not just what they say they want to do. In practice deregulation is aimed at helping specific sectors of business, it always has been.

You faggots even realize we're playing on a completely different "battlefield" now?

Every fucking Chinese conglomerate, like Alibaba is looking to take American business share, and they are doing it with rapid success thanks to the CPC protectionist policies, regulation, and direct financial support.

Every fucking chinese company competing for your market share is backed by their government and their self favoring regulations... why not ours?

De-regulation has been a popular idea since 1776

>> China floods the world with cheap crap subsidized by the CPC; effectively destroying and disrupting world industries (Solar for example).

And for you faggots who think "why do we need industry regulation?" Take a good look at the rise and dramatic fall of the domestic US solar panel industry as a case study...

US policies allowed the chinks to flood the domestic market and the world with so much overcapacity and destroy an entire industry, including their own.

Why do you think the Americans are scared of handing over SanDisk to the chinese?

We're afraid the Chinks will flood and destroy the DIMM/Memory and semiconductor industry like they did with Solar.

>That must mean you are retarded because images with text are never wrong.
/leftypol/ fuck off. you are worse than plebbit.

Bottom line, the world market
> in 2016
is a whole new ballgame of Global manipulation of currencies, industries, and resources by every country and every power, from the EU, to China, to Venezuela.

Saying that the US will not use domestic policies to reduce the influence of other Countries market manipulation is like trying to play the world economy game with one arm tied behind your back.
