Yeah, well thats what its about. They decided to burn down their business relationship with US agriculture and farm their own shit for the sake of ideology.

Now theyre starving, and they have a fucking tyrant ruling over them and using the fact that they cannot produce enough to feed themselves against them. The US is embargoing them because they decided to bite the hand that fed them...literally.

The rest is all partisan bullshit, bro.

You know those bananas we eat? You should see what natural banana looks like? Huge black seeds in such a mutlitude that its hardly even edible. Those "organic" bananas in the store? How often do you find a seed in them while they cost twice as much as perfectly fine chiquitas?

Sorry crazy conspiracy people, if the government wants to take over, they can and will, because they have vastly superior weaponry. The 2nd amendment isn't what protects your freedom: it's our democratic system of checks and balances.

The day that fails all the guns you can hoard won't do shit when the corrupt government drops a bomb from a plane on you.
By that same logic, I could argue that the military does not need small arms, because its potential enemies have nuclear weapons and tanks.

My point being that while a nuclear weapon is more devastating than a person with a gun, a person with a gun is better able to defend himself against government tyranny than a person without a gun.

A nuke is too messy anyway, it would likely kill many of its allies along with its enemies.

The capitalism described here is crony capitalism, where the big corporations and big government collude to push out competition by using the regulations referred to in your post. Big corporations have the legal and financial resources that the little guy doesn't have. This is why big government, with their oppressive regulations, have got to go. We need free market capitalism, not crony capitalism.

Philosophy is 1 thing. Real life has proven that capitalism has lifted people up for more than any other economic system. Certainly more so than anything the far left has presented.
