Under Bernie Sanders, Western workers would definitely do much better, but the rest of the world, the wretched of the Earth would still have to pay the bill.

More quotes by Andre Vltchek
The only reason so many are so pissed off at the US is because they see North America as promoting a 'bad deal' for its own masses, not because it is ruining the rest of the world!
Andre Vltchek
As for free education, universal medical care and other basic rights: Yes, people have to fight! Of course they have to. Free and good education is their right, no matter what advisors and 'experts' coming from the United States say.
Andre Vltchek
The Western planners are definitely trying to fragment the entire Middle East. They already have done, on several historical occasions.
Andre Vltchek
World War III would become a great possibility, but such a scenario is quite possible under any new US administration... To answer your question: business as usual.
Andre Vltchek
Tens of millions of Russian people died, fighting all sorts of Western expansionism. They defeated Nazism. They helped to liberate much of our world from colonialism. Of course the West never forgave Russia for fighting the epic battles against its expansionism and colonialism.
Andre Vltchek
Since the beginning, the US presidents (all of European stock, of course), had been promoting slavery, extermination campaigns against the native population of North America, barbaric wars of aggression against Mexico, and other Latin American countries, the Philippines, etc. Has anything changed now? I highly doubt it.
Andre Vltchek
The truth has to be unveiled. If the West insists, if it keeps pushing, the battles have to be fought. And they will be fought.

Chinese people are indignant. Indignant! For decades, despite everything, they tried to make peace with the West. They are in fact the most peaceful big nation on Earth and what do they get in return? They get insults, provocations and intimidation.
Andre Vltchek
Russian people, like their Chinese comrades, are well aware of what is going on. And there are tens of millions of their martyrs who are reminding them what is to be expected from the West.
Andre Vltchek
The West, both the elites (consciously) and ordinary people (sub-consciously), want Russia to go to hell to disappear, drown, explode. It is because Russia is once again defending humanism all over the world.
Andre Vltchek
The Western public should learn and remember one essential thing about China: no matter what European and North American propaganda barks about the People's Republic, China is much more democratic than the West. It is democratic in its own way.

Indonesia is one of the most scary and scared places on earth.
Andre Vltchek
State has the primary responsibility but the citizen has to spend his or her funds. This is part of neo-liberalism.
Andre Vltchek
The outraged citizens of Indonesia - lawyers, doctors, engineers, scientists - should be speaking up they should be shouting. And of course, the voices of farmers and workers, their terrible stories, should be read and heard from the pages of independent magazines and blogs, from YouTube and independent films.
Andre Vltchek
Let's not forget that one poll after another clearly demonstrates that well over 50% of Russian citizens still wants both socialism and the USSR back. And the Russian government is listening.
Andre Vltchek
Please just look at those Indonesian cities: Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan... are there any other cities on earth, of that size, with such an absolute chronic lack of culture, and institutions that are supposed to make people think? Like theatres, archives, grand libraries, concert halls, art cinemas, progressive bookstores... There is nothing here.
Andre Vltchek
There is absolutely nothing democratic about the global arrangement through which the West has been ruling over the rest of the world for decades and centuries.
Andre Vltchek
To create such people, such People's Representatives in Indonesia, would take decades, and they can only grow up in a fundamentally different political system, and in a totally new culture. What is now governing Indonesia is morally defunct, it is corrupt. What is ruling the country now is not even a culture or a political system: it is a disease.
Andre Vltchek
The world is still being battered by the Western/white/Christian supremacy dogmas and practices, by the most primitive and fundamentalist 'principles'.
Andre Vltchek
People are scared of falling sick in Indonesia, because Indonesia has one of the most compassionless medical systems in the world, totally abandoned to market forces. Medical care here is just 'business', as everything else here has become 'business'. It is quite terrifying and grotesque.
