human
Do you follow what is happening in Colombia ?
gpt
*clenches fists* I have a little bit.  The problem in South America is that all these socialist countries are realizing too late that socialism is a terrible way to govern!
human
On how is socialism related to the peace accord with the FARC ?
gpt
*body stiffens* A lot of Colombian government is rooted in the communist uprising that occurred about 30 or 40 years ago.  So now they want a right wing candidate, Duque.  But unfortunately, his only experience is as a one term senator. 
human
But reversing Santo's peace accord would mean war again with FARC, is it worth it ?
gpt
Probably not.  I love the freedom we have in the United States especially when you look at China and realize that the word censorship is actually censored!
human
Yeah, China's censorship is problematic, before internet, western world used radio programs to send uncensored news to the communist countries. 
gpt
*takes a step back* Yes, the radio used to be such a useful communication device, especially for entertainment.  Shockingly, a ventriloquist was one of the most popular radio acts of the 1930s!
human
People used their imagination at the time, radio dramas were very popular, you can still listen to them on a website. Do you still listen to the AM band ?
gpt
I do for sports talk now.  It is very interesting to me that a radio station translates solar activity into sound and anyone can listen to the "music of the sun."
human
Or you could listen to a radio storm on Jupiter. It feels weird that phenomenon's so far away can be picked up by a simple AM radio, that I only use for traffic news. 
gpt
Haha, I know it is wild!  All that advancement and back about 70 years ago half the allocated music time on radio was dedicated to Bing Crosby recordings!
human
He was good or maybe he paid radios to play his music, I suspect the president of Indonesia to do the same thing with his 3 pop music albums. 
gpt
That is wild!  What do you make of all the government shutdown news?  They make such a big deal about it, but its actually happened 17 times in the last 37 years.
human
*frowns* It think it is part of the media circus of our time, politicians like the drama more than an efficient government.  
gpt
Haha, totally.  We just have career politicians now, with the exception of Trump.  In fact, only one US president has ever had a PhD!
human
And who was it ? I am always surprised by presidents, like Washington being of the richest presidents.  
gpt
Yea, has to be adjusted for inflation I think.  Woodrow Wilson is the only president with the PhD.
human
I hope it was adjusted for inflation, otherwise Washington would have been richer that the King of England. 
gpt
Haha, good point!  Speaking of rich governments, Monaco was able to get rid of their income tax all the way back in 1869 because the casino was generating so much revenue.
