  1. Is it wrong that I imagine with pleasure, this man taking a shotgun blast to the face? It is not the USA's right or duty to impose order on the rest of the world, especially when it is such an unmitigated shithole at home. I can only hope that the rest of the world has the balls to sanction the US as a rogue state.

  2. When the dollar ceases to be stable, and the US financial institutions become so corrupt that investing in them becomes a fool's gamble, and the US makes trade with it an inequitable proposition, you'll soon see how untouchable the dollar is. There are nations with three times the population of the US. China is rapidly looking like it will become the powerhouse economy of the planet, and India is taking service business from the US. How long do you think the world will tolerate the corruption and incompetence that governs Wall Street?

  3. That's the problem with insults based upon assumptions isn't it Ausla, you fabricate an entire back story around them then look like an utter prick when they are totally wrong. I'm 54 years old, and have excellent social and communication skills.

  4. I have already vowed that I will never go to the US for work or vacation ever again unless I see a radical shift in leadership and attitude, but frankly, I think the rot goes right to the core and has just been hidden all this time. I'm certain that there are many like us.

  5. I can only imagine the depths of stupidity that looks at the appointment of a proven liar and warhawk like Bolton, and thinks it is a good thing.

  7. Define "greatest". By almost every metric of greatness it has NEVER been the greatest. It doesn't have the largest military, the most nukes, the largest population, the best education, the happiest citizens, the greatest personal wealth, the most honest politics. The only definitions that you can use to claim it is the greatest nation are negative - most people in prison, greatest political corruption, most insane leaders, greatest income inequality, most theists in the western world. Face it, America is a dismal failure and getting worse by the decade. It once looked like it was really going to be something special, but political corruption, greed and incompetence have ensured that it is now a shithole that the world looks at with disgust.

  8. Wipe the saliva from from your mouth and try again Sam.

  9. The US doesn't know HOW to clean up its mess even if it wanted to, which it most certainly does not. It continues to provide arms to Saudi Arabia against Yemen, Israel again Iran, and god knows who against Syrian. Now they're talking about funding rebels in Iran. It welcomes a destabilised Middle East for many different reasons, theological and financial. The US has rivers of blood on its hands. The US is a despicable piece of shit, and sadly it seems that increasingly, like the bully's rat faced little sidekick, Britain is tying her fate to it.
