Dumbastheycome Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Interesting responses. However as usual maintain the self imposed illusion of what governance is about. I do not defend the legitimacy of a militarially imposed jurisdiction but rather point out the undeniable . It would appear that many prefer to support the unprincipled devolution of society unto criminal chaos yet complain ever so bitterly about the necessity mostly due to the curtailment of the chaos they have long taken advantage of ! Tuff excrement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment is my opinion mostly in reference to those who label/ignore anything positive the current regime has initiated yet in deference quote and quip the philisophical illusion that "democracy" as a principle is derived from the aspirations of those who manipulate the ignorant mass without reference to or appeal of opinion of them on anything other than based on deception. Individual crass aspiration need be tempered by consideration of the continuity of social order. I feel no compunction to provide specific evidence in support of my opinion . Shoot me !

I missed the "It would appear" part of your post. I don't agree with you, but that is your point of view and I am all for your right to express it whether I like it or not. I am also against any government who would seek to repress such opinions not to their liking and have you jailed or deported. Point conceded.

Individual crass aspiration need be tempered by consideration of the continuity of social order. I feel no compunction to provide specific evidence in support of my opinion . Shoot me ! The continuity of social order is absolutely vital to any society and yet democracy can be a hindrance. as an example, mass immigration is needed by almost all Western countries if they are to maintain their social security systems (health care, pensions etc.) the Western adults don't produce enough children to keep the system going but the mob sweeps away all concerns and demands an end to it,politicians are only too happy to ignore the warnings that social science has been giving about this for for tens of years. What happens to society when in 20 years pensions are no longer payable because there aren't enough workers paying into the system, the NHS is already collapsing. I have read that the very rich are already preparing for the ensuing chaos by buying homes in New Zealand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon4546543 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Forget the hyperbole. See I can use long winded words too. Thailand is controlled by the military. That is a fact. Thailand is the most peaceful in many, many years. Sure everyone, especially the civilian and former political scammers are not happy but who gives a rats about them. There is the most infrastructure development in my area I have seen in 10 years. Drains, swamps, roads and power poles are being renewed or replaced. The political situation does not affect me nor any farang. Get over your opinions and make the best of living here that you can, except most of the negative posters are based overseas. We Thai living farang can see through you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read that the very rich are already preparing for the ensuing chaos by buying homes in New Zealand. You are probably correct about almost all you state. To maintain a top heavy system as is applied does indeed require reductions in mass social support. But with a little research I am left confused as to why the very rich would be investing in New Zealand domestic property when it is priced disproportiatly high relative to domestic disposable incomes. Or is that perhaps a confusion with the fact it has one of if not the highest Central Bank rates in the world? Or is that the cause of it? The very rich may avoid some aspects of chaos in doing such but will likely be prepared to suffer the isolation . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Thai wife is appalled at my comments to you. That is not the Thai way she lectured me. And I agree. Lets meet half way, just say things in plain language and keep the post to 4 sentences or less.
