Not a bit.<br />Is it not the old fashioned Lampedusa's"changing everything, so that nothing really changes" ?<br />The same trick being applied by more and more so called "populists", eager to blame every suffering on foreigners and to use the national flag so as to avoid the hard issue : wealth and power distribution throughout society and how globalisation is reshaping it in a totally undemocratic way.<br />(Neoliberalism is dying, long live neo-neoliberalism ?)GLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04372485857847843352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245381193993153721.post-47664843664524588492019-01-01T03:38:20.219-08:002019-01-01T03:38:20.219-08:00It's like if you are anti-war, then you are a ...It's like if you are anti-war, then you are a traitor.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10814629694630632470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245381193993153721.post-83689413069422958492018-12-23T14:18:43.080-08:002018-12-23T14:18:43.080-08:00No comment on the Syria pull out?

The Democrats in the USA seem want open borders.

His combination of moderately left wing economics with nationalism and social conservatism is bound to appeal to the white working class. As a class this group has voted Republican on social grounds for decades, despite the economic pain it brought. Western nations are crying out for a responsible and modern left wing nationalism, but all the Fake Left delivers is more mass immigration and rainbow minority grievance mongering. <br />I wonder, though, whether his conservative network will eventually want to steer him back to the swamp of neo-classical economics.. Time will tell.<br /><br />.jingelichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09998585247772423235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245381193993153721.post-82992435963659976882018-12-11T13:20:04.614-08:002018-12-11T13:20:04.614-08:00Make more posts about history as the one about aus...Make more posts about history as the one about austria pls LKdisequilibriumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09760922141392402211noreply@blogger.com
