    Sure, but, you realise that "capitalism" is only really an economic system, right? The way we use it is to not just let it run wild. It's regulated, taxed, it has laws that control it, and, importantly, we have a welfare system that works independently of it. You should know this.

    That isn't capitalism, that's the failure of the UK to protect and care for their vulnerable people. If not for capitalism, those old people, like most other people, probably wouldn't be alive to die.

    Sure, it's part of many hotels peak time, but that isn't Thai people celebrating Christmas. In terms of greed, where does it stop? Most companies want to maximise profit, and that means charging the highest amount that people pay. Do they increase rates during peak time, or do they reduce rates during off-peak time? I wouldn't complain too much about greed or capitalism. Without it, you wouldn't have food to eat.

    "Mastermind".

    "He has a speech impediment!!!" They're all just silent right now. Completely dishonest, and don't even have the decency to admit what they did and apologise. 🤷‍♂️

    You don't even need a news article to tell you this. Everyone could see that Biden had dementia, therefore his team had to be hiding it, as they denied it repeatedly. It's not even debateable.

    He was her boss. That was the problem.

    Back dated.

    Interesting. Probably not the best idea to attack the mother of your brother's under 18 girlfriend, nor try to steal their baby. Multiple charges could be faced by the family now. Poor baby doesn't stand a chance.

    They don't. No more than they "celebrate" Valentine's Day. Basically, it's become a highly commercialised holiday in the West, with the religious element removed, and Thais enjoy that part of it. It has nothing to do with greed. Why would it?

    I think what you have to take notice of, is the fact that this is a "matchmaking firm". Only wealthy guys are going to use them, so this is the opinion of the minority within Thailand.

    The left/MSM seems fine with this trade-off.
  13. BangkokReady
    No! There is an increase in crime, at least crime reported here.
  14. BangkokReady
    Things seem to be getting more dangerous in Thailand.

    He's hardly going to choose people who are disloyal, is he? Still, better than a stunningly unqualified president. It could have been Harris!!
  16. BangkokReady
    Always has been.

    Very sad. Probably didn't trust banks. Their house sounds like it was a tinderbox waiting to go.
  18. BangkokReady
    It's almost as though people want some sort of middle ground where crime is taken seriously but the public isn't put in unnecessary danger. 🤔

    That's quite the excuse, even for Thailand. "It's not my fault I crashed. I was scared of being arrested!"

    He fits the profile more than you might think. "Champaign Socialists". Most of the left-wing dictators that kill millions are privileged and well educated. That's where they become radicalised. They then use the antifa types to do their dirty work.

    If you actually think about it, if they didn't confirm the cause of death, someone could murder someone, then stage a car accident, and possibly get away with it. Also, someone could die in a car accident, but could have had some sort of pre-existing condition which contributed to their death, and without checking what actually killed them, the person who caused the accident could face a harsher penalty than they should. 🤷‍♂️

    Contact a shady "agency". Depends how legal you want your work to be. It can range from White skin to a relevant degree and TEFL qualification. Probably. Depends how old you are. Thailand! 🤦‍♂️

    Isn't that Thaibeachlover?
  24. BangkokReady
    probably worried that it would create a negative image.

    Wealth is a marker of status. Status symbols are displays of wealth. Wealthy is a status. They're pretty much the same thing. An E-class Mercedes is a show of wealth. The high cost of the car shows your status to all who see it.
