The balance of the American mind has been exploded by the quasi-religious aggression of corporate guruism-American labor has been competitively infantilized/gaslit for the last half century by the very entities which are responsible for sculpting the contours of the American dream. No wonder there is such fragmentation and malaise-crisis after crisis the gambling elite get bailed out and the average American gets stuck with the bill.
Most, if not all Americans can't seem to wrap their minds around that principle. Their inflated egos, arrogance and sense of entitlement, tricks their minds into believing that the universe was built upon the foundations of America. They do not realize that the great USA is about to become a history lesson for future classroom lectures and debates. The topic will be, "The rise and fall of America"
Spending 2bn a day to keep the military presence overseas, while having 100m people below the poverty line at home, and a middle class that cannot afford calling an ambulance, is unsustainable. Many empires have fallen for less. It's just a matter of "when"
The nature of America is the 2 party division. It’s always been this way. People at each other’s throats for their contradicting beliefs. It is a hilariously good system for preventing extremism. Because when you have an extremist, people are already criticizing their work before they’ve had time to ruin anything. Elon musk said its a big ship with a small rudder, each extremist completely spins the wheel one way, but the ship doesn’t turn very far, then the next guy spins in the completely opposite way and the net result is the US moving straight forward. Albeit not in the most efficient manor, but it’s worth the trade-off
@@Crazyveiwingvirus no, that's the main problem. there are 2 parties and both of them are extremists. the right almost remind me of nazis with their ''America first'' and ''let's bomb the world'' and the left is busy trying to fix issues that don't exist by creating more problems

The U.S. is a declining economic power. In 1960, the U.S. accounted for 40% of the world's gdp. China's share was only 4%. Today, the U.S. share of the global gdp has dropped to 24%, a 40% decline. Meanwhile, China's share is now 17%, a 325% increase. Using Purchasing Power Parity, China's gdp is already larger than the U.S. Despite the per capita gdp being only 1/5 of the U.S , its domestic retail market is larger than the U.S. In 2020, China's FDI was the largest in the world. Since 2009, China has been the world's largest automotive market. It is the largest market for both BMW and Mercedes. 40% of Volkswagen's revenue is from China. GM sells more cars in China than in the U.S. China is also the largest EV market in the world. Of the 4 largest EV battery manufacturers, 2 are Chinese, BYD and CATL. The U.S. reckless military spending, poor fiscal and monetary policies have resulted in this decline. Trade sanctions, embargoes and tariffs will not improve the economy.
Pandemic reveals the intelligence of the populace majority in many countries, inevitably what we see is really eye opening. World majority outside western world used to respect western world and look up at it. Since the pandemic, this view has changed quite a lot. It's good for some pollster to make the study. Yet, the western world does not seem to even know the problem from within, and still busy with finger pointing/war mongering.
Not only pandemic exposed West but their war-mongering westren media. Now people across the world don't trust this media anymore it is tool of govts and corporates.

@Ituber012 anti government type thinking was etched into the fabric of America since it's foundation. When government gets too big, gets too intrusive there is always a backlash. That is what the R.R. era was. Since the 1950s as the government got bigger, as it became more intrusive the quality of life of the average American has steadily gone down.

@Investigative Audit I have noticed and I've seen your previous comment. The economy is in the toilet. I've been looking for houses and jobs in other countries, I'm so over it.
As a patriotic American I can say that I've seen the writing on the wall since the year 2000. American politicians are to blame, voting bills to better themselves and line their pockets rather than what's best for the American people. America is failing to an exact mirrored imagine like the Roman empire fell, there have been many documentaries on this similarity.
America’s obsession with individualism, while seen by many as what has brought it a degree of success, is the millstone that prevents it from maximising its potential. Individualism by its very definition prioritises the singular over the many. Some would argue that individualism has enabled progress that wouldn’t otherwise been possible. However this model is responsible for the ever-declining middle class and the corresponding problems and costs of the widespread poverty caused. Rather than addressed, these problems are normalised. Without meaningful change matters will continue to deteriorate. The only way out is for not one, but a succession of competent, charismatic and visionary presidents who incrementally wean Americans away from excessive individualism. It’s not to turn America into some sort of socialist state, but invoke policies that strengthen and expand the middle class. The economic activity of the middle class fill the coffers of government and the wallets of the wealthy. Reducing poverty lessens the burden on all. The rest of the world might mock America, but deep down would much prefer it to do well. Everyone would be much better off if it did.
Since when is a vaccine created ahead of a pandemic? They started making the vaccine in 2015 however covid did not arrive until 2020. Does that make sense?
Oh dear! You obviously know very little about the development of the vaccines. Scientists have been working with coronaviruses for around 40 years. The Covid 19 vaccine was developed from the Covid 2 and MERS vaccines. Scientists were able to begin development of the vaccine in January 2020. There is no mystery about the vaccines. You just need to read the science articles and university papers.
It’s different technology from previous vaccines. I’ve read explanations of it, but would not be able to portray it accurately. A pandemic had long been predicted by people with experience in the field, and substantial money had been used to prepare to deal with it. During the Obama administration, and possibly before, there was a government department set up to be on the alert and start proceedings early on if a new and dangerous virus was detected. On of the first things Trump did was to dismantle that department and fire the professionals.
@Investigative Audit Are you for real? Of course my information is based on reading! How else would I learn or know about anything in this world? I read primary documents in the main. Some secondary information from Lancer and Science Today. I also watch a variety of videos to gauge the depth of conspiracy theories coming out of the US. You assume that because you get your information from extreme web sites, we all fit into that catagory. We don't!
@Andy Dondy, I'm one of the major critics of our interventionist foreign policy but you should realize that if we go "KAPUT" as you say, in the short term peace will be the last thing you'll see. There are a lot of nations hoping to settle scores with their neighbors but don't do so due to American pressure. Right off the top of my head I can name 15 wars which would immediately start in such an event. China invades Taiwan. Turkey invades Greece. Russia invades Ukraine, Georgia and a plethora of other nations. Iran invades Saudi Arabia. Serbia invades Kosovo. These are just to name a few which would immediately happen if America went Kaput overnight. I do however agree with you that these endless wars the United States gets into have to stop. At what point will our people realize that spending billions of dollars to slaughter a bunch of poor people around the globe doesn't really help them or us.

Contrary to popular belief college professors really don’t spread those ideas. College students come in already thinking that and join organizations that reinforce those beliefs.
I think anyone living here who is going to be honest and realistic can see that we're in decline and have been for quite some time now. It does seem this decline has been accelerated over the past decade.
It took 200 years for Ottoman Empire from decline to collapse. Empires don't end like a cliff jump. They decline slowly and it might take hundreds of years. Ottomans weren't much institutionalized. America is highly engineered and it might take even longer for its eventual finish.

For people born in this country, the American dream is a myth. Your typical monolingual American takes everything for granted, self absorbed and does not appreciate anything. Even a homeless person most times a junkie has a better life than someone in another country, trying to achieve it. I came to the US with nothing, did not know the language but I did something about it. Studied, served in the military, worked hard and the fruit of all my sacrifice: 1. Financially stability for life. 2. I have everything I need and items I wanted. 3. Education. 4. Home ownership. 5. Future generations will have the same opportunity as I did, in this country. Understanding the value of hard work and money isn't something most American don't truly understand and most take it for granted, expecting a hand out or a safety net. For anyone to say, the American dream is dead... I am living it and smiling EVERY day. You are the problem. This whole racism this and that... the man has never ever held me down. Soy Latino!
"The civil war was never about States' rights it was purely about slavery" - NONE of the founding fathers you mentioned were alive during the civil war. All secessions are valid all the way down to the individual, and the North forced war upon the south for wanting to leave the union peacefully. Slavery was the pretense excuse for Lincoln to rile up aggressionist war support. But truly he did not care as seen from all his quotes during that time. Plenty of slaves also existed in the North at that time and he famously said that if he could keep the union without freeing any slaves he would also have done it.
“While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a human being and a mouth that spoke boastfully. “As I looked, “thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him. Thousands upon thousands attended him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the books were opened. “Then I continued to watch because of the boastful words the horn was speaking. I kept looking until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. (The other beasts had been stripped of their authority, but were allowed to live for a period of time.) “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed. “I, Daniel, was troubled in spirit, and the visions that passed through my mind disturbed me. I approached one of those standing there and asked him the meaning of all this. “So he told me and gave me the interpretation of these things: ‘The four great beasts are four kings that will rise from the earth. But the holy people of the Most High will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever-yes, for ever and ever.’ “Then I wanted to know the meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws-the beast that crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell-the horn that looked more imposing than the others and that had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully. As I watched, this horn was waging war against the holy people and defeating them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the holy people of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom. “He gave me this explanation: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it. The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time. “‘But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever. Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the holy people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.’ “This is the end of the matter. I, Daniel, was deeply troubled by my thoughts, and my face turned pale, but I kept the matter to myself.”

The lives of Americans really began to become systematically problematic right around the time that the first Bar Association was formed in 1878, shortly after the end of the war in 1865…and then the act of 1871 creating the separate and independently sovereign pagan capital city known as the District of the goddess Columbia along with it’s own police, complete with expanded jurisdictional privileges, just like the City of London’s Inns of Court at Chancery, The Crown Temple Bar, and then the smallest internationally recognized sovereign nation, owner of all others, including the world bankster currency lenders, governed by the Jesuit’s black pope who’s a marionette of black nobility. The purpose of the American bar, was never a secret, as it was set forth in its first constitution, "the advancement of the “science” of jurisprudence, the promotion of the administration of justice and a uniformity of legislation throughout the country...." That last point tells you all that you need to know, “a uniformity of legislation throughout the country.” This is a direct attack on what the civil war really WAS largely about, states rights… Unlike the untruthful and ignorant narrative dishonestly promoted by racist leftist ideologs who narcissistically play the role of society’s victims while demanding unearned “entitlements.” When will people learn? The fantasy known as “equity” is resultant of a people who have believed that reality is material and therefore put their faith in the materials gained by their contracting with the devil… True wealth can never come from material gain It is already within you.

USA was the first to come up with state-of-the-art vaccines. However, China came out with traditional vaccines shortly afterwards, so the American advantage wasn't significant. And recent evidence show that Pfizer/Moderna are not as effective against the Delta variant, and that the Chinese vaccines are actually doing quite well.

You don’t even have to be a marxist to see there’s no real contradiction between slavery and the free entreprise culture. Slavery was big business in Brazil too, but for different reasons - there wasn’t an available workforce to rely upon - , and it doesn’t show the same racist features not only because of miscegenation - as is the case in Canada too - as much as for the fact it never had an entrepreneurial culture before the european migration introduced it. It’s curious, though, to notice that the U.S. was also flooded with european migrants, and it didn’t change their stance on racism or “rugged individualismo” at all - that’s the point, by the way…

I am a little skeptical of the extent to which it can be said that America failed the pandemic.

Valuable knowledge isn’t about only the things you like, believe or convenient/advantageous to your-self interests!
In order to have a more balanced and accurate view, there should be an opposing view to compare and contrast to!!!
I’ve listened to what flat earth theorists claim and I have yet to be convinced by the evidence they present so I am sticking to a round earth as the evidence is way stronger!!! But at least I gave them a chance to challenge my beliefs and didn’t dismiss their views as nonsense until they failed to give sound evidence that contradicts current scientific proofs!!! So, if they can come up with more compelling evidence, then I will be more than willing to hear it!
The U.S. is a declining economic power. In 1960, the U.S. accounted for 40% of the world's gdp. China's share was only 4%. Today, the U.S. share of the global gdp has dropped to 24%, a 40% decline. Meanwhile, China's share is now 17%, a 325% increase.
Using Purchasing Power Parity, China's gdp is already larger than the U.S. Despite the per capita gdp being only 1/5 of the U.S , its domestic retail market is larger than the U.S. In 2020, China's FDI was the largest in the world.
Since 2009, China has been the world's largest automotive market. It is the largest market for both BMW and Mercedes. 40% of Volkswagen's revenue is from China. GM sells more cars in China than in the U.S. China is also the largest EV market in the world. Of the 4 largest EV battery manufacturers, 2 are Chinese, BYD and CATL.
The U.S. reckless military spending, poor fiscal and monetary policies have resulted in this decline. Trade sanctions, embargoes and tariffs will not improve the economy.

Pandemic reveals the intelligence of the populace majority in many countries, inevitably what we see is really eye opening.
World majority outside western world used to respect western world and look up at it.
Since the pandemic, this view has changed quite a lot. It's good for some pollster to make the study.
Yet, the western world does not seem to even know the problem from within, and still busy with finger pointing/war mongering.
Not only pandemic exposed West but their war-mongering westren media. Now people across the world don't trust this media anymore it is tool of govts and corporates.
USA has Been in decline since Bush but it started with Regan who made 'anti government' popular and has only grown since then
Meanwhile he brought us trickle down economics, which benefited the rich. What Reagan did was get the rich money and the dumb ignorant hicks a hostile ideology.
Reagan screwed the nation with his trickle down economy. The wealth gap has only grown wider since. Bush screwed up the financial markets and deepened the nations deficit by starting 2 unfunded wars, one with no basis. WMD? Trump divided the nation and brought white nationalism to the forefront. Leave it to the Republicans and GOP to screw up a good thing.
So the US has been in decline for decade after decade but some how we keep declining up cause they are still well on top, people said the USSR was gonna eat our lunch and look what happened to that, Who is having a massive property bubble pop right now?????
@Ituber012 anti government type thinking was etched into the fabric of America since it's foundation.
When government gets too big, gets too intrusive there is always a backlash. That is what the R.R. era was.
Since the 1950s as the government got bigger, as it became more intrusive the quality of life of the average American has steadily gone down.

@Investigative Audit I have noticed and I've seen your previous comment. The economy is in the toilet. I've been looking for houses and jobs in other countries, I'm so over it.
As a patriotic American I can say that I've seen the writing on the wall since the year 2000. American politicians are to blame, voting bills to better themselves and line their pockets rather than what's best for the American people. America is failing to an exact mirrored imagine like the Roman empire fell, there have been many documentaries on this similarity.

The dream never existed, it was always a mirage...
America’s obsession with individualism, while seen by many as what has brought it a degree of success, is the millstone that prevents it from maximising its potential.
Individualism by its very definition prioritises the singular over the many.
Some would argue that individualism has enabled progress that wouldn’t otherwise been possible. However this model is responsible for the ever-declining middle class and the corresponding problems and costs of the widespread poverty caused.
Rather than addressed, these problems are normalised. Without meaningful change matters will continue to deteriorate.
The only way out is for not one, but a succession of competent, charismatic and visionary presidents who incrementally wean Americans away from excessive individualism.
It’s not to turn America into some sort of socialist state, but invoke policies that strengthen and expand the middle class.
The economic activity of the middle class fill the coffers of government and the wallets of the wealthy. Reducing poverty lessens the burden on all.
The rest of the world might mock America, but deep down would much prefer it to do well. Everyone would be much better off if it did.
Canadians have gone full bonkers on China.
Hypocrisy is their national sport.

Since when is a vaccine created ahead of a pandemic? They started making the vaccine in 2015 however covid did not arrive until 2020. Does that make sense?
Oh dear! You obviously know very little about the development of the vaccines. Scientists have been working with coronaviruses for around 40 years. The Covid 19 vaccine was developed from the Covid 2 and MERS vaccines. Scientists were able to begin development of the vaccine in January 2020. There is no mystery about the vaccines. You just need to read the science articles and university papers.
@Investigative Audit Just love these conspiracy theories. Good for a laugh or two. Keep them coming. Not much on TV anyway.
It’s different technology from previous vaccines. I’ve read explanations of it, but would not be able to portray it accurately. A pandemic had long been predicted by people with experience in the field, and substantial money had been used to prepare to deal with it. During the Obama administration, and possibly before, there was a government department set up to be on the alert and start proceedings early on if a new and dangerous virus was detected. On of the first things Trump did was to dismantle that department and fire the professionals.
@Investigative Audit Are you for real? Of course my information is based on reading! How else would I learn or know about anything in this world? I read primary documents in the main. Some secondary information from Lancer and Science Today. I also watch a variety of videos to gauge the depth of conspiracy theories coming out of the US. You assume that because you get your information from extreme web sites, we all fit into that catagory. We don't!

Bottom line America is no longer no.1 and it will continue to decline.
America can go kaput ASAP so we can finally have peace instead of endless wars👍👍🙌🙌
@Andy Dondy, I'm one of the major critics of our interventionist foreign policy but you should realize that if we go "KAPUT" as you say, in the short term peace will be the last thing you'll see.
There are a lot of nations hoping to settle scores with their neighbors but don't do so due to American pressure.
Right off the top of my head I can name 15 wars which would immediately start in such an event.
China invades Taiwan.
Turkey invades Greece.
Russia invades Ukraine, Georgia and a plethora of other nations.
Iran invades Saudi Arabia.
Serbia invades Kosovo.
These are just to name a few which would immediately happen if America went Kaput overnight.
I do however agree with you that these endless wars the United States gets into have to stop. At what point will our people realize that spending billions of dollars to slaughter a bunch of poor people around the globe doesn't really help them or us.

It took 200 years for Ottoman Empire from decline to collapse. Empires don't end like a cliff jump. They decline slowly and it might take hundreds of years. Ottomans weren't much institutionalized. America is highly engineered and it might take even longer for its eventual finish.

EXCELLENT! NO MORE WARS AND BULLYING
For people born in this country, the American dream is a myth. Your typical monolingual American takes everything for granted, self absorbed and does not appreciate anything. Even a homeless person most times a junkie has a better life than someone in another country, trying to achieve it. I came to the US with nothing, did not know the language but I did something about it. Studied, served in the military, worked hard and the fruit of all my sacrifice:
1. Financially stability for life.
2. I have everything I need and items I wanted.
3. Education.
4. Home ownership.
5. Future generations will have the same opportunity as I did, in this country.
Understanding the value of hard work and money isn't something most American don't truly understand and most take it for granted, expecting a hand out or a safety net. For anyone to say, the American dream is dead... I am living it and smiling EVERY day. You are the problem. This whole racism this and that... the man has never ever held me down. Soy Latino!
"The civil war was never about States' rights it was purely about slavery" - NONE of the founding fathers you mentioned were alive during the civil war.
All secessions are valid all the way down to the individual, and the North forced war upon the south for wanting to leave the union peacefully. Slavery was the pretense excuse for Lincoln to rile up aggressionist war support. But truly he did not care as seen from all his quotes during that time. Plenty of slaves also existed in the North at that time and he famously said that if he could keep the union without freeing any slaves he would also have done it.
“While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a human being and a mouth that spoke boastfully.
“As I looked,
“thrones were set in place,
and the Ancient of Days took his seat.
His clothing was as white as snow;
the hair of his head was white like wool.
His throne was flaming with fire,
and its wheels were all ablaze.
A river of fire was flowing,
coming out from before him.
Thousands upon thousands attended him;
ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him.
The court was seated,
and the books were opened.
“Then I continued to watch because of the boastful words the horn was speaking. I kept looking until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. (The other beasts had been stripped of their authority, but were allowed to live for a period of time.)
“In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
“I, Daniel, was troubled in spirit, and the visions that passed through my mind disturbed me. I approached one of those standing there and asked him the meaning of all this.
“So he told me and gave me the interpretation of these things: ‘The four great beasts are four kings that will rise from the earth. But the holy people of the Most High will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever-yes, for ever and ever.’
“Then I wanted to know the meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws-the beast that crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell-the horn that looked more imposing than the others and that had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully. As I watched, this horn was waging war against the holy people and defeating them, until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the holy people of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom.
“He gave me this explanation: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it. The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.
“‘But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever. Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the holy people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.’
“This is the end of the matter. I, Daniel, was deeply troubled by my thoughts, and my face turned pale, but I kept the matter to myself.”
Religion has been a huge part of America’s failure to progress. Why ever care about fixing problems if the world is ending?

The lives of Americans really began to become systematically problematic right around the time that the first Bar Association was formed in 1878, shortly after the end of the war in 1865…and then the act of 1871 creating the separate and independently sovereign pagan capital city known as the District of the goddess Columbia along with it’s own police, complete with expanded jurisdictional privileges, just like the City of London’s Inns of Court at Chancery, The Crown Temple Bar, and then the smallest internationally recognized sovereign nation, owner of all others, including the world bankster currency lenders, governed by the Jesuit’s black pope who’s a marionette of black nobility.
The purpose of the American bar, was never a secret, as it was set forth in its first constitution, "the advancement of the “science” of jurisprudence, the promotion of the administration of justice and a uniformity of legislation throughout the country...."
That last point tells you all that you need to know, “a uniformity of legislation throughout the country.” This is a direct attack on what the civil war really WAS largely about, states rights…
Unlike the untruthful and ignorant narrative dishonestly promoted by racist leftist ideologs who narcissistically play the role of society’s victims while demanding unearned “entitlements.” When will people learn?

USA was the first to come up with state-of-the-art vaccines. However, China came out with traditional vaccines shortly afterwards, so the American advantage wasn't significant.
And recent evidence show that Pfizer/Moderna are not as effective against the Delta variant, and that the Chinese vaccines are actually doing quite well.

You don’t even have to be a marxist to see there’s no real contradiction between slavery and the free entreprise culture. Slavery was big business in Brazil too, but for different reasons - there wasn’t an available workforce to rely upon - , and it doesn’t show the same racist features not only because of miscegenation - as is the case in Canada too - as much as for the fact it never had an entrepreneurial culture before the european migration introduced it. It’s curious, though, to notice that the U.S. was also flooded with european migrants, and it didn’t change their stance on racism or “rugged individualismo” at all - that’s the point, by the way…

I am a little skeptical of the extent to which it can be said that America failed the pandemic. The most effective and the best vaccines in the world are still developed by USA and it is still leading the world out of the pandemic. This is all not to say that it could not have been better. Under any other leader the situation could have been much different. But the USA still is the country everyone looks to for solution when there is a crisis.
Thats a lie and you know it, pfeizer was first and is still the best vaccin at this moment. And thats a german company. 90% of europeans were vaccinatie within a short period of time after the develepment of the vaccins, we are even sending our extra vaccins to third world countrys right now .

The dream is there, the line jis st shift, ppl need to follow the shift..

Thousands from Haiti are waiting under a bridge. There is no place to house them. Opening that border should finish fake president Biden. But Obama still pushes his agenda to make us a Muslim country. Sorry there is no room at this country. They need to go home and fix their countries. Or put on a uniform and fight to fix this one. Either way. No more free housing or food or useless paper money. The idiot talking should be ashamed of himself. Go find another country to live in. You are part of the problem.
They actually might save you.
