As an American, I kind of think you all do.
“Malvinas” is the undeliverable promise of every “it’s going to different, our economy won’t be the joke of the world anymore” Argentinian politician with aspirations of being president.
Fortunately you learned your lesson in ‘82 when you reminded the world that the Brits tend to go, “all in” really quickly when you finally push them too far, and have been sure to include, “peaceful” in your rhetoric ever since.
Pssst, you aren’t ever getting ‘em. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

>I kind of think you all do.
Why do you people just keep showing how ignorant you are about what's going on in Argentina?
>“Malvinas” is the undeliverable promise
Read my comments. I never said it is not a mentioned topic (even suggested the opposite). I was clearly talking about the non-peaceful way not being a thing.
>our economy won’t be the joke of the world
The left has been in power for 16 out of the last 20 years. They don't use that narrative because they use the narrative that the economy is already doing great. You don't seem to be familiarized with the political narratives going around here.
>and have been sure to include, “peaceful” in your rhetoric ever since.
Do you even know that the war was started by a military dictatorship? Democratic governments had the peaceful diplomatic approach both *before* and after the dictatorship. Again man, it's weird you're proud of displaying your ignorance.
Ah, another bit of irony: although the US hasn't significantly intervened in Argentina for a long time now, it DID have at least a bit of influence in favor of that dictatorship back then. Because it opposed some commies.
>Pssst, you aren’t ever getting ‘em.
Oh, you break my heart! Nothing like trying to be offensive and smug on reddit am I right? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
This is a common misconception because two other ships in the fleet that were sunk by bombs burned and had aluminum superstructures.
Sheffield’s superstructure was made entirely of mild steel and the reason for the fire was the loss of the fire mains for damage control, not enough smoke masks and the presence of flammable linings throughout the structure.
The MoD reasesssd the impact and determined the Exocet did indeed detonate within the ship.
Lastly, it’s a general misconception that aluminum burns outright - shipbuilding homologous aluminum alloys do not burn, they instead begin to deform at about 600 degrees Celsius.
Powdered aluminum however can burn, but that certainly wasn’t the reason for any of the fires aboard RN ships lost during Falklands. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
Ukraine is getting D'assault Mirage 2000s soon, and those can use SCALP/Storm Shadow and are by themselves are a way superior platform.
Now the wait is for something like the Rafale/Gripen/Eurofighter for Meteor, which would be the best way to guarantee air superiority. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

I have a problem with this sentence:
"Obama's administration violated our agreements with Ukraine because of their deeply naïve foreign policy regarding Russia and China, which for the record, Obama has since admitted was naïve of them. It took Russia sparking an even bigger violation of the agreement with their full scale invasion before the USA found itself pressured enough to step in per its obligations."
Because it's fucking wrong, and it does not even do any pretendo mental gymnastics to place an argument forward with even the shoddiest proof that even the most bought supreme court justice would have to call you out on. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

> That agreement succeeded in taking away Ukraine's nukes, but has been an absolute disaster for nuclear non-proliferation in general
Would likely have been worse had the nukes stayed in Ukraine. They weren't in any position to manage the massive Russian stockpile they were left with and corruption was rife. They weren't even usable because Ukraine didn't have the codes. Ukraine would need to spend a ton of (scarce) capital to rebuild or rework them if they wanted to maintain a nuclear deterrent. Even in Russia's weakened state, it's *very* likely they would have invaded to reclaim them. Better, in their minds, to do so before Ukraine has control.
The final BM agreement was so toothless because Ukraine wasn't in a position to negotiate for true security guarantees. It was in *everyone's* best interest for them to give up those weapons at the time.
> It's true that US didn't technically break the agreement.
This isn't a "technically" situation. The agreement wasn't broken at all by anyone but Russia.
> But if US's goal is to have less nuclear weapons in the world, they've certainly been failing.
The goal was to remove a huge, poorly controlled nuclear stockpile from an unstable, freshly independent state. The agreement did exactly what it was intended to do. Russia potentially invading 20 years later wasn't even a consideration. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

Are there any targets that represent “crippling” levels of damage? This costs millions of dollars, but also represents a rebuild cost and tech/chip loss. Is it eventually going to be rebuilt? Or is this a knock down in abilities? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
It's only "multimillion-dollar" when exported. It absolutely doesn't cost Russia millions of dollars to force underpaid workers at their military factories to produce more of these. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
So we spent millions to destroy millions. I love seeing my tax dollars fight Russians tax roubles… such a waste | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
They have a limited number of systems and can't just build replacements as they're hit. They're transferring them in from elsewhere--but that makes their defenses elsewhere thinner.
You use a volley of the fancy ATACMS rounds to take down the SAMs so their dinky little robo-Cessnas (which would stand no chance trying to get through the envelope of a Pantsir) to get through and kill the target you actually care about. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

Do you think a blog is an empirical source if it happens to be associated with a university? Hilariously, the blog claims "A large body of empirical research shows that when taxes on capital gains increase, realizations of capital gains fall (and vice versa)" but does not provide a source for this claim. TBH this total lack of empirical evidence while pretending that empirical evidence backs obviously ideological claims is a big part of the reason why I stopped studying economics. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
Also, and I don't want to assume bad faith on your part, especially because this is reddit and not like an academic article, but its very funny that you claim capital gains are "highly elastic with respect to taxes" then link to something that doesn't prove that but also makes the same claim with no evidence, and has no citation of where this claim comes from. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
There’s a link to their data set and it’s written by an economist. I could go dig up some papers if you want, but it’s not like you were going to read them.
It should be obvious that changes in tax policy may change behavior, it’s the whole idea behind pigovian taxes which are pretty well studied and part of orthodox economics. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
Did you read the blog you linked? The link to the data set is their own projections, not real data, and the methodology is unclear. It's a blog, so that's kinda fine, but it proves nothing except that you can find a random economist that agrees with your viewpoint.
Also you claim you can go dig up some papers, but I have asked multiple academic economists at multiple universities why capital gains taxes would be less economically efficient than labour taxes and not one has ever even claimed that empirical evidence exists to back this claim. I would legitimately change my mind on this if you can provide real empirical evidence contrary to my opinion. I don't think it exists because I have looked for it for literally multiple years and both my own research through academic sources and asking for the research of experts in the field has failed to show empirical evidence proving this (wild) theoretical claim. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
Here you go some papers to read.
Here’s a paper on the [lock in effect of capital gains](https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/NTJ41790910?journalCode=ntj)
[Rethinking How We Score Capital Gains Tax Reform](https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/718949), which cites previous work on elasticity.

Do you have more information on the proposed tax rate and exact implementation of this proposal? I read through their website trying to find out more but both it and the linked news articles were highly ambiguous.
The way I understood it it's a wealth tax not an income tax. How are appreciating assets handled? I buy a second house for 1m but by the time this proposal is implemented it's worth 1.8m but I don't have a lot of disposable income. Do I have to liquidate other assets to pay for the tax on the excess 550k above 1.25m in value of the second home?
What stops the heavy multi millionaires from just incorporating all their assets in leasing companies and holding trusts so it doesn't count as personal assets and renting it back from themselves?
I understand that not many people are able to afford this but my threshold for ultra-rich is higher. It feels like it would put more of a burden on entrepreneurs with medium sized businesses who have a huge impact on local economies than on the actually filthy rich who don't do shit beside living off inheritance and compounding interest. I'm open to be proven wrong though. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
