Welcome To Tier 2 Politics and History!

[Daniel Balan]

But I am sorry that I said TIK is tier 2. In retrospect he clearly isn't but I still think he is a very developed orange! To me he is embodying everything positive in stage orange! And guys you are a bit too harsh. He ain't no libertarian! He is pro capitalism that's all. He has a bias against socialists and a fairly justified one none the less.

@Girzo Would you please recommend me a book about economics? I would like to read one to grasp a bit about this topic which I totally admit that I am illiterate in. 

[Girzo]

@Daniel Balan The Economics Book by Big Ideas Simply Explained. Books from these series are usually good for any topic, https://www.amazon.com/Economics-Book-Ideas-Simply-Explained/dp/0756698278

Then maybe something by Steve Keen, if you like to dive in straight into critiques of the status quo.

@Fluran Alex Karp is not a socialist. 3rd generation Frankfurt School is not socialist, it’s to the right of the current SPD in Germany. 

It’s interesting that a Frankfurt School person ends up head of a US national security state project, given the many ties between the earlier Frankfurt School and the CIA, which promoted Marcuse and Adorno as controlled opposition. Adorno published in CIA-funded journals and Marcuse even had a handler.
