It is capitalism, venture capitalism. Richard Branson and the Barclays are two mahoosive cogs in that very British machine.

It is no coincidence that the majority of countries living in poverty are bogged down in superstition and primitive religious practice. Such cultures are a breeding ground for dictatorships and violence.

The West are not responsible for the ills of countries/continents still living in the past and refusing to move on. These people are often their own worst enemies and need to do more to help themselves otherwise nothing will ever change.

The West spend billions every year to help but change needs to come from within. Therein lies the problem.

the problem isnt religion as such, its the old testament and its a particulalry warped interpretation of the curan, whereas the new testament is infinitely more enlightened. Thats why the west is so much more civilised , we have a pretty great country built in large part on Christianity. Given a choice between Christianity and islam, Its Jesus all the way for me. But of course due to political correctness were not allowed to say that in the mainstream

  • “I mean, we could say politically correct that look doesn’t matter, but the look obviously matters, like you wouldn’t have your job if you weren’t beautiful.” - Trump to a female reporter
  • When lawyer Elizabeth Beck requested a break from a 2011 deposition to pump breast milk, “He got up, his face got red, he shook his finger at me and he screamed, ‘You’re disgusting, you’re disgusting,’ and he ran out of there,” according to Beck.
  • “If Hillary Clinton can’t satisfy her husband what makes her think she can satisfy America.” - Now deleted Tweet by Donald Trump
  • According to New York Times columnist Gail Collins “During one down period, I referred to him in print as a ‘financially embattled thousandaire’ and he sent me a copy of the column with my picture circled and ‘The Face of a Dog!’ written over it.”
  • Trump said that Arianna Huffington, founder and editor-in-chief of the Huffington Post, “is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision.”
  • Talking about Megyn Kelly at the debates: “She gets out and she starts asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions… You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever.”

They’re sort of always stuck around that 25 category.”
  • Gloria Allred represented Ms. USA contestant Jenna Talackova, a trans woman, and said that Trump needs to stop focusing so much on genitals after he joked about her client.

all he said about equal pay is if a man or a woman do the same job to the same standard then they deserve equal pay

As usual, the economists here are as ignorant as Trump (the guy with multiple bankruptcies) when it comes to finances. The deficit fluctuates month to month based on how much the government spends or how much tax revenue it takes in. Trump hasn't done a damn thing yet.
