robosmith Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Carlson, like the populist right, dislikes what makes America great Quote Tucker Carlson’s interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin got a lot of attention. But I was more struck by Carlson’s reaction to his visit to Moscow — his first ever. He was not just impressed; it left him radicalized and enraged at his own government. Where to begin? Perhaps with the obvious reminder that living in Moscow if you criticize the government can mean prison or death, sometimes both. In Dubai, a few days after the interview, Carlson put forth a bizarre hodgepodge of assertions. He thought the architecture, food and service in Moscow was better than in any American city. Really? Moscow, outside of a small historic center, is filled with drab Soviet-era concrete buildings. And while food in Moscow can be quite good, is it better than in New York or San Francisco? You need to get out more, Tucker! Carlson also marvels at the grandeur of a subway station, contrasting Moscow’s subway favorably with New York’s. While it’s true that the Russian capital’s subways are excellent, the stations are so grand there because they were built by Joseph Stalin at huge public expense to showcase the superiority of Soviet Communism. In contrast, New York’s subways are a product of capitalism, having been built and operated through public-private partnerships of various kinds, which are more budget-conscious. It has always been true that centralized autocracies can marshal the entire resources of society to build great vanity projects. Tucker should go next to see the pyramids of Egypt and the Taj Mahal. They’re amazing. Once upon a time, American conservatives praised the United States' organic communities, rooted in freedom and choice, built bottom-up not top-down. But the new populist right despises these cities, and that disgust is in part a rejection of modern, pluralistic democracy itself. Increasingly, they are dazzled by the clean and orderly ways of dictatorships, populist authoritarians and absolute monarchies. After all, say what you will about Putin, he makes the subways run on time. Carlson has gone off the rails on the crazy Russian subway station.

The average american income is not the average undocumented farm worker's income. The avearge 'undocumented' person's income is fa less PEW studies on unauthorized immigrants estimates that the average household of 3.1 persons earns about $36,000 per year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_impact_of_illegal_immigrants_in_the_United_States So - 12 thousand dollars a year per person? Maybe if we say 2 of the 3 are adults it's more like 18 thousand? Barely enough to get by even in the us - and that's the average, meaning half are probably lower. Yep - those "Not Slave" labourers sure are living the high life buying fancy cars and massive homes on their 18,000 dollars a year!!!! Just THINK how much zucchini that will buy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
