Trump on Juneteenth: US has ‘too many non-working holidays’ President Trump on Thursday — which marks Juneteenth, the newest addition to the U.S. holiday calendar — said the country is losing money due to the number of federal holidays. “Too many non-working holidays in America. It is costing our Country $BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep all of these businesses closed,” the president wrote in a Truth Social post. “The workers don’t want it either,” he added. ... Rece stabilni, koji polovinu svog "radnog" vremena provodi igrajuci golf - na racun poreskih obveznika, sto na neki cudan nacin ne uznemirava MAGA sledbenike, koji su inace uvek zabrinuti za njihove poreske pare.

Znaci, ajmo pare iz ruke srednjeg sloja da prebacimo u ruke bogatasa, to jest drugih pojedinaca koji taj novac nisu zaradili. Zar zaista mislis da se bogatstvo Muska uvecalo za 100 milijardi u par meseci teskim radom u stvaranju DOGE haosa. Ili da su kompanjoni stabilne budale postale preko noci bogatiji stotine miliona radom ? Ili mislis da je ok da prosvetari u US moraju sami da kupuju nastavni materijal, ili rade dva posla da bi preziveli, samo ds bi se bogatasima smanjio porez ? Ili mislis da profit industrije hrane i farmaceutskih firmi treba staviti iznad dobrobiti ljudi ? Ili mislis da su svi beskucnici sami krivi za svoj polozaj jer nisu dovoljno radili ? Ovo nabrajanje mozes nastaviti u nedogled. PS Znam da tako ne mislis, barem ne u potpunosti i tako ogoljeno, sto govori tvoj drugi pasus, ali smo svi mi privilegovani skloni previdjanju izvesnih mana sistema i zaboravljanju zasluga nasih prethodnika, licnih i opstih (sindikati, feministkinje, borci za bolje uslove radnika u drustvu...).

To je news ticker koji se s vremena na vreme menja.

Oduvek sa sumnjao da Svajcarci naginju komunizmu - zdravstvena zastita je obavezna, 4-6 nedelja godisnjeg, 42 sata radno vreme, do dve godine 70% plate pri nezaposlenosti, placeno materinsko osudstvo i zastita od otkaza za vreme bolesti, a sad vidi ovo - imaju cak i sindikate. Ne postoje tačni podaci o tome koliko je radnika organizovano u švajcarskim sindikatima, jer to nisu javno dostupni podaci, a članstvo u sindikatu se stalno menja. Međutim, postoje razni sindikati koji deluju kao udruženja zaposlenih u Švajcarskoj i predstavljaju veliki broj članova. Evo nekoliko primera švajcarskih sindikata i njihovog procenjenog broja članova: Unija: Najveći sindikat u Švajcarskoj, koji je zaključio oko 250 kolektivnih ugovora o radu (GAV) za različite sektore kao što su građevinarstvo, usluge, industrija i trgovina. Predstavlja 1,34 miliona radnika u Švajcarskoj. Da, svi koji su propali 2008. usled bankarske krize (=muljanja u neregulisanom trzistu) bi se slozili sa tobom. Setih se sada groznog Marxa, koji je ci mi se negde napisao da su periodicne krize i slomovi, inherentne kapitalistickom nacinu proizvodnje. Istina ? To je to.

Ti paralelni svetovi vec postoje. Tvoj komentar ? Kapitalizam je trenutno jedini sistem, koji povezan sa demokratijom, omogucava vecem broju ljudi relativno ugodan zivot no to ne znaci da covecanstvo nije sposobno pronaci nesto bolje (prvo se mora promeniti svest i drustveni odnosi, a to ide jako sporo; prelasci robovlasnistvo-feudalizam-kapitalizam se isto nisu desili preko noci). Vec sada se vide razlike u kapitalizmima - USA je po meni primer loseg razvoja, a Zapadna Evropa manje loseg kapitalizma. Privatizacija ne cini svaki sistem efikasnijim i boljim. Potpuno slobodno trziste koje sve samo idealno regulise je bajka, koju je smislila manjina kojoj to odgovara. Isto vazi i za privatizaciju, trickle down ekonomiju i na prvi pogled logicnu izjavu "ako ti posao ne odgovara nadji si bolji". Razlog je uvek isti - ogromna razlika u moci pojedinih ucesnika. Izvesna drzavna regulacija je neophodna, ako se zeli koliko toliko postena igra. Da bi drzava bila u stanju da igra svoju ulogu neophodna su joj odredjena poreska sredstva (optimalno bez gubitaka na korupciju i ideolosko rasipanje). Posebno treba vise oporezovati bogatase, finansijske spekulante i velike multinacionalne kompanije, koje legalnom utajom poreza cine najvecu stetu drustvu. Svakom drustvu. Strari se, postajem sve konzervativniji. 😞

Ulazak SAD u rat? Tramp želi da odluči u roku od dve nedelje, ili barem tako tvrdi. Međutim, kako piše Njujork tajms: Dve nedelje mogu značiti nešto za Trampa – ili ništa. To je i da i ne. To je i odlaganje i rok. To nije objektivna jedinica vremena, već subjektivna. Potpuno je odvojena od bilo kakvog vremenskog niza. Jednostavno znači „kasnije“. Ali „kasnije“ ponekad može značiti i „nikada“. Kada je pre osam nedelja upitan da li može da veruje šefu Kremlja Vladimiru Putinu, Tramp je odgovorio: „Javiću vam za oko dve nedelje.“ Poreski planovi, zdravstvena politika, dokazi za mitove zavere za koje je tvrdio da su istiniti, borba protiv ISIS-a, otvaranje rudnika uglja, planovi za infrastrukturu – sve su to nekada bile misterije čija su rešenja Tramp obećao da će javnost imati za oko dve nedelje.

Zaboravite na Princa mira – Tramp je obećao mir koji nikada nije došao Tokom svoje predizborne kampanje, Donald Tramp se predstavljao kao „mirotvorac“ i „ujedinitelj“ koji bi mogao da okonča ratove u trenutku. Kontinuirano nasilje u Gazi, Ukrajini i Iranu jasno protivreči tome.

Sve ok, samo jos da razjasnimo ovo. Pogresno si procenio tonalitet - receno je sasvim neutralno "ja cu se i dalje igrati, a ako moderaciji, ili vecem broju forumasa, smeta kako pisem - jednostavno cu to promeniti, bez drame i negativnih emocija". Prosto ko pasulj.

@fancy Ok. Bio bi potpuno u pravu da ja samo prenosim tudja misljenja, ali uvek iznova pisem i svoje stavove i ucestvujem u raspravama. Vesti (linkove na portale uvek stavim) i misljenja drugih koje prenosim sluze samo kao podloga za eventualnu raspravu. Posto su u velikoj meri odraz onoga sto i ja mislim, ako neko reaguje na njih ja cu odgovoriti u daljoj raspravi, kao da sam sam to napisao. Mislim da pogled drugacijih, a ipak nasem mentalitetu slicnih ljudi (iz Hrvatske na primer) moze osveziti forum, pogotovo sto je po raznovrsnosti tema i brojnosti ucesnika puno veci, no ako je to ovde problematicno onda to vise necu raditi. PS Ja nisam dosao ovde da se popickam.

Ima foruma na kojima je zabranjeno stavljati link na druge forume, pa sam mislio da je tako i ovde. Jedini izvor je forum.hr (sto se vidi i po jeziku) na kome sam vise od 20 godina (bio i moderator na duhovnosti par godina). Autori su naravno anonimni forumasi, a meni stedi vreme i trud ako neko napise priblizno onome sto bi i sam napisao. Ako je ok koristicu nadalje quote tag. PS (ili ovako) Eto, MAGArci će do besvijesti ovo ponavljati i opravdavati svoje nasilje.

"Putin šalje čestitke i ljubavna pisma Trumpu. Danas ponovo. Ne postoji niti najmanja šansa da ikada Trump uvede sankcije Rusiji. Zelenskom bolje da je tiho jer što više priča, može jedino biti sretan da Amerika ne uvede sankcije Ukrajini. Vezanost Izraela, Ukrajine i Irana je enormna, ali Amerika niti nema ozbiljnu vladu pa to ne vidi. Postoji jasna osovina Kina, Rusija i Iran gdje je jedna zemlja ekonomska velesila koja s nikim ne ratuje, a 2 dobermana i napadaju i prijete svijetu nuklearnim uništenjem. Istovremeno režim iz Washingtona priča o 51st stateu, radi probleme EU od koje obadvije strane pate, i govori da će aneksirati Grenland. Kao što rekoh, ljudi u Washingtonu su ili zakinuti ili rade za nekoga. Amerika je patila pod Bidenom kao slaba, ali ovo sad više nije ni smiješno. Poslije Bidena i Trumpa ostatak svijeta ni ne treba uvest sankcije Americi, oni se sami izjedaju kao Neron i Kaligula nekada."

A prominent Democratic state lawmaker in Minnesota and her husband have been killed, and another Democratic state lawmaker and his wife were shot, in the early hours of Saturday.

"Uglavnom obećao je od Gaze napraviti Kaliforniju, a na kraju će od Kalifornije napraviti Gazu." TACO man opet promenio misljenje o imigraciji. "Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace," Trump said Thursday on his social media platform. Trump – who employed immigrants for years at his hotels and golf courses, many of whom were in the country illegally, according to a 2019 investigation by The Washington Post, made similar remarks at a news conference later that day. "Our farmers are being hurt badly by – you know – they have very good workers, they have worked for them for 20 years," he said. "They're not citizens, but they've turned out to be, you know, great. And we're going to have to do something about that. We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back, because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have, maybe not."

Lep pozdrav iz Grcke.

Let’s talk about the real reasons behind the implosion of the Elon Musk and Donald Trump bromance. Sure, Trump wants you to believe Musk was having a tantrum over EV tax credits getting axed from his “One Big Beautiful Bill.” But Musk has known about that for a while. Trump signed an executive order to remove EV charging stations across the country months ago. Plus, as Tesla’s reputation and shares took a nose dive, Musk continued to embed himself deeper in to the Trump administration. Sure, he supposedly was able to get rid of a lot of road blocks for Tesla while running DOGE - but that was just a bonus - not the end goal. I believe he had his eyes on some much bigger prizes. And the only reason to believe Musk’s rants about fiscal responsibility and deficit spending were sincere is if you believe the narrative that he truly got involved because he “wants to save the country.” If you really believe that’s what the dispute was about, you probably also think WWE wrestling matches are real. What actually happened is much simpler - and much more predictable if you’ve been paying attention to how power actually works. It’s not hard to see that months of frustration have been building up as Musk found himself increasingly sidelined from the real levers of power. This wasn’t about policy disagreements or philosophical differences about government spending. This was simply about control, access, and ego. The final straw came when Trump withdrew Jared Isaacman’s nomination to head NASA - Musk’s handpicked candidate who had already been approved by committee and was awaiting a full Senate vote. But that rejection was just the latest in a series of personnel defeats that had been eating away at Musk’s influence. He’d already been blocked from his preferred picks for the IRS and CIA. Marco Rubio wouldn’t let him into the State Department, and he got blocked from meetings at the Pentagon. For someone who spent north of $280 million helping Trump get elected, being treated like a junior advisor instead of a shadow president had to have been becoming increasingly intolerable. The NASA snub was particularly galling because space policy is literally Musk’s final frontier. SpaceX has $22 billion in government contracts at stake, and the company has essentially become NASA’s lifeline for getting astronauts to and from the International Space Station. If Musk can’t control personnel decisions in the one area that affects him the most, what’s the point of having influence at all? The writing was on the wall weeks before they started publicly feuding about spending bills. The thing is - the government has become so dependent on Musk’s companies that cutting ties would be practically impossible. SpaceX is the only American way to get astronauts to the space station, and there are literally people up there right now who need Musk’s rockets to get home. When Musk threatened to decommission Dragon spacecraft, he was essentially holding NASA hostage - though he walked it back hours later after someone presumably explained the optics of stranding astronauts in space. The broader lesson here is that when you give billionaires this much influence over government functions, personal disputes become national security issues. This isn’t just about hurt feelings and bruised egos - it’s about the fundamental question of whether critical infrastructure should be controlled by people whose main qualification is having money. Musk deleted his posts about Trump this morning, and they’ll probably kiss and make up eventually because they need each other. Trump needs Musk’s money and tech influence for 2026, and Musk needs those government contracts to keep his Mars fantasies funded. But this public meltdown has exposed just how fragile these power arrangements really are when they’re built on personal relationships instead of institutional frameworks. This whole mess is what happens when you hand over critical government functions to private companies run by mercurial billionaires. We’ve essentially privatized our way into a hostage situation where one man’s hurt feelings can threaten to strand astronauts in space. Think about how insane that is. The United States government - the same entity that put humans on the moon and built the interstate highway system - has made itself so dependent on Musk that his personal beef with the president becomes a national security crisis. We don’t have backup plans because we decided that competition and efficiency were more important than redundancy and reliability. This is the logical endpoint of decades of privatization rhetoric. Instead of maintaining government capabilities, we outsourced them to the lowest bidder - or in this case, the flashiest entrepreneur with the best PowerPoint presentation about Mars colonies. Now we’re discovering that private companies can hold essential services hostage whenever their CEO has a bad day. The problem isn’t just that Musk controls too much infrastructure - it’s that we’ve structured these relationships to make government dependent on corporate goodwill. When your space program, satellite communications, and electric vehicle transition all depend on one guy’s mood swings, you’ve basically turned governance into a reality TV show. The next time some politician tells you that private industry can do everything better than government, remember this moment. Remember when America’s space program nearly got shut down because a spoiled, billionaire narcissist didn’t get his way.

Koliko ljudi znas koji imaju kontrolu nad emocijama ? Pri tome ne mislim samo na socijalno uslovljenu kontrolu, ili nesvesno potiskivanje. Smrtokapa je dao dobar link koji dosta toga objasnjava. Moj pogled na stvar dolazi iz jednog drugog ugla, koji nije samo psiholoski.
