Wrong if basically happens for the wrong reasons.

By loving someone you inherently invest in them unconditionally. Just because you like to be around that other persona and vise versa.

That being said, you should also be careful and don't go straight ahead charging in. Some people are manipulative and might use that against you.

And If it happens you should move on. you will eventually find some group of people or at least someone.

> In professional economics, Capital was a detour into a blind alley, however historic it may be as the centerpiece of a worldwide political movement. What is said and done in its name is said and done largely by people who have never read through it, much less followed its labyrinthine reasoning from its arbitrary postulates to its empirically false conclusions. Instead, the massive volumes of Capital have become a quasi-magic touchstone—a source of assurance that somewhere and somehow a genius "proved" capitalism to be wrong and doomed, even if the specifics of this proof are unknown to those who take their certitude from it.

Honest question.
Is capitalism preventing space travel?

There is no "right now" profit in going to the stars (long term yes)

So with a pay out in the life time of an investor its not worth it with the millions people make off oil and other things like that,
Its my belief that we could of had a settlement on the moon 20 years ago but there is no payout in it so it isnt worth it for investors.

A human society with no capitalism probably wouldn't have made it to electricity, let alone space travel.

If you mean "nobody wants to fund that shit" you would be correct, but this is inherent in every economic system, not just capitalism. It's capitalism that's given the US government a three trillion dollar a year budget to spend.

OP here, not totally against capitalism but i notice a trend of current capitalists not wanting to take risks like they did before.
In the early industrial days and before that when explorers were discovering the world there was huge risk.
no ones willing to risk it all anymore in the name of progress.
Clean and Solar energies would benefit a lot of things and even make profits for investors but since it wouldnt happen in the holders life time "its not worth it"

Its sad really.

I guess you could call it crony capitalism or something.

Knocked them out before heading south to deal with Poland-Lithuania.

Hungary was colloquially known as the happiest barrack in the Eastern block due to perceived greater freedom and quality of life its citizens enjoyed. Compared to other soviet countries, Hungarian human rights record was relatively clear and the people enjoyed many amenities and were unkown to chronic shortages and long queues. Lot of alternative culture was tolerated to a degree, best described by Kádár's slogan "Who is not against us, is with us".

Lets get into detailed economic history.

The main lesson learnt from the 1956 regime for Kádár and the Party was the importance of keeping people fed and satisfied with their lives. While the 1956 revolt certainly had lot of ideological elements it couldn't have happened without a failing economy, constant shortages and general lack of common goods, coupled with great extortions from the still large agricultural sector (1954-55 marked probably the only years in history when Hungary couldn't produce enough food for its own!), excessive military spending and over-focusing on heavy industry development.

Following an inital period of political stabilisation and huge retorsions, The Party turnt to revising ithe whole economic doctrine. The centrepiece of all economic decisions will from now on be improving quality of life. This is extremely important point and will be recalled numerous times in this writing. Practically every decision, plan, idea was subordinated to this doctrine. This however didn't really mean raising everyone into middle class, rather, it meant satisfying the workers and labourers.

This was first undertaken by large investments into light industry and agriculture to produce goods. The focal aim was to always have and make plenty of food, both for consumption and export, being Hungary's main trade item at the time. The prices of foodstuff were centrally dictated, and they genereally stayed constant! for long long years, despite inflation and increasing wages. Quality was not stellar but acceptable.

For the people to have money, already in 1956 Hungary aquired large loans from the USSR and spent it on raising wages mainly. In 1957 the first larger reform attempt was sketched up. What it included was pretty much introducing elements of market economy, less direct orders, creating economic agents (companies managed by workers councils). However most of these were quickly redacted ue to general economic stabilisation.

The early 60s showed a strong growth but by 1965 lack of national capital begin to slow down investments, necessiting borrowing from international credit. The hoped source of new indogenous capital was agriculture. Collectivisation was sped up, both through concessions and force. Compulsory delivery for private farmers was suspended, small scale private agriculture fully legalised and regulated, the welfare state was extended to these peasents too. This worked and agriocultural production increased by ever year.

The 1961 5-year plan laid the goal of surpassing capitalist countries by the 1980s. In 1962-ben the Party's 7th congress declared "we have laid down the foundations of socialism and can begin building a modern socialist society".

cont. of last post

A note on intra-block trade at the time, and how it related to Hungary. Due to the 1956 revolution, Hungary's situation in the Comecon gained new freedom of space. As Hungarian production simply couldn't keep up and frankly just couldn't produce all the populace needed, the Comecon supplied the rest in exchange for Hungarian goods, notably agricultural items, but also (low quality) industrial products. The most famous were the Ikarus buses, as Hungary was assigned to be bus producers of the Eastern block. The other great benefit of Comecon was bountiful cheap energy, mainly in the form of oil and gas from the USSR, supplied way under global market prices, enabling upkeep of wasteful, inefficient production practices.

The successes of the 60s encouraged the party leadership to redesign the whole economy, marking the start of the so-called New Economic Mechanism.

The reform started on January 1, 1968.

The central invention of the reform was redesigning the whole plan-driven economy. It gave more autonomy to companies, limited markets replaced orders as the main mechanism. Collectivised busineses got a degree in freedom in choosing what exactly they produced, prices of global and internal markets started to converge. The totally centraslied distribution of resources was no more, and depending on company perfomance interests of leaders and workers were recognized.

The reforms were in effect until 1972, despite the Prague spring. However in 1972 the largest 50 industrial and food companies were put under central orders again, pretty much killing off the reform.

This step is begging questioning, One element was the fact that now that company perfomance was taken more into account, naturally some workers and leaders (but especially leaders and managers) started to receive greater payments thus income inequality grew, much to the disdain of labourers elsewhere. Unions spoke out loudly.

Two, due to limited freedom in production, certain kolhozes and companies started working for existing market holes, yet again creating additional income for themselves. This was of course not allowed for large corporations at all to maintain economic integrity.
As such payments again become heavily regulated, but all this did was giving rise to grey incomes. For example many workers simply stayed inside plants using the machines to produce then sell it for their own pockets.

Finally these the practices of the NEM did not increase export, partially because agriculture was still just too dominant in this area, partially because foreign policy did not accodomate to the NEM. In fact the choice of said 50 companies was very much due to trade worries and to boost export.

"In violent opposition to all this sphere of Jewish effort rise the schemes of the International Jews. The adherents of this sinister confederacy are mostly men reared up among the unhappy populations of countries where Jews are persecuted on account of their race. Most, if not all, of them have forsaken the faith of their forefathers, and divorced from their minds all spiritual hopes of the next world. This movement among the Jews is not new. From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, and down to Trotsky (Russia), Bela Kun (Hungary), Rosa Luxembourg (Germany), and Emma Goldman (United States), this world-wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilization and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily growing."

"There is no need to exaggerate the part played in the creation of Bolshevism and in the actual bringing about of the Russian Revolution, by these international and for the most part atheistical Jews, it is certainly a very great one; it probably outweighs all others. With the notable exception of Lenin, the majority of the leading figures are Jews."

How does Israel define itself? Help me understand without /pol/ level trolling.

What does a "jewish state" mean?

if you're defining yourself as a jewish state, doesn't that mean you're creating a second class of non-jews?

if an ethnic arab converted to Judaism--would that make him a jew?

are you looking to create an homogeneous state with only jews? how is that not dramatically undemocratic.

why not just define yourself as a secular state without religion sprinkled in. wouldn't that garner more western support? or am i conflating being jewish as being like presbyterian and it's more of an ethnic group? still though a modern country shouldn't be a home for just one ethnic group or another.

yes. not only that, they'd qualify for Israeli citizenship under the Law of Return (don't ask how someone who's ancestry was never even hypothetically related to the Levant can "return" to it)

It's an ethno-national group.
>still though a modern country shouldn't be a home for just one ethnic group or another.
It doesn't imply that(though arabs are a long-term ethnic nightmare).
And it's not unheard of in modern times, as well.
Romania, for example, defines itself as a national state in the first article of it's constitution, and the elected president is a saxon, while the hungarian party has always been a part of the ruling government.
