Mike Pict: It's too easy to see you're missing the entire Picture. Washington is a global empire that uses Americans to subsidize their war efforts, just as you are paying your online and wireless bills. You are displaying a racist behavior towards seniors, just like American media with this pandemic. If you are seventy years old, a life-time non-smoker, non-drinker who didn't do drugs, how does that compare to being a twenty-year old who is high on meth and homeless?

@mikepict9011 : I agree with most of what you say, but a country that depends on the wealth and oil of other countries isn't free from anything international. When I saw the presidential debates I was surprised nobody said anything about federal aid for wildfires, making water bombers or converting military aircraft.

@mikepict9011 : I'm agreeing with everything you say except for the use of the word cult. Most would say cabal or secret organization. I can't call it the military-industrial complex any more when it's such a big part of ordinary American society. No matter what you and I say it's only going to get worse. Thanks for being mature about my slam on your name. I am a Watt, another four-letter name that's also a word.

@mikepict9011 : As being of the Clan that created a lot of the "English" language before there was an England, I'm totally into authentic words, and yes, semantics. I see what you say here and see where you're coming from, so I can agree. Cult is a bad word because it's part of culture, and culture defines human beings. Saying you are against socialism is an idiotic thing to say, jus'sayin'. Canada is officially a multi-cultural country, from natives to recent immigrants. Being heavily into semantics, sometimes I pronounce multi as "mool-tee" like the perfect woman in the Fifth Element.

@mikepict9011 Yeah, Americans and their cultural sayings. How many times do people say it's a jungle out there when they live in a forest? Mankind was given the ability to take care of all living things and the earth with live on, far beyond being what natural selection is. What's natural selection for most Americans is who has the biggest and baddest weapon.

@mikepict9011 : Oh no! I'm going to make myself a target. But I have to say it. I'm getting tired of hearing about life in the jungle when we live in a forest. The getting tired part is about me, now typing that three times today. It's just a short and dictionary definition truth, when it's not a good reply for me. I know why it's not a forest. If all Americans cared as much for the west coast does as much as the west coast does, the federal government might be moved to convert current and future aircraft as water-bombers for the annual wildfires they are having. Neither candidate said anything about that during the debate.

@mikepict9011 : Let me tell you something that's easy for Clan Watt to say, to parallel your engineering over-view, and for me, to give you a hope for any alternative reality, upwardly mobile or down. Will it resonate with you? Dr. James Watt invented horsepower. He didn't like the fact the Industrial Revolution was being powered and lubricated by marine mammal oil and crushed Egyptian mummies. 25% of locomotives in Americas' wild west used mummies. He traveled through Europe and improved manufacture in every country by a minimum 65%. HIs only patent was for the valve that made all that possible, as a legacy for his family. He toured the world talking to government scientists to warn them about what The United States was doing with Nikola Tesla and Guiglielmo Marconi in terms of using new electric devices. Other scientists name the watt after him. He and his ancestors did not go through the Dark Ages. Coming down from Hadrians' Wall and going through Europe exposed him to diseases they had never seen themselves. Bay-an-uck-let, blessings on you in Gaelic.

Americans have an opportunity to redefine their capitalist system. They took their money off the gold standard a long time ago, American money now only being worth what you are willing to do to get it. Americans should just start giving away cash and online debit do anyone who needs it without any future debt or repayment. There is a printer in America who keeps printing hundred dollar bills to make palette loads to give or air-drop to foreign war-lords who Americans want to take over legitimate governments. That's one big precedent. If you were a financier, and someone asked you to lend them seven billion dollars a year, so they could give it away to drug addicts and alcoholics who can't function for themselves, would you approve that loan? That's what the Province of Ontario does with Wall Street money. That's another big precedent, creating a sub-society of people that Washington is only interested in getting money from to subsidize the military online that used to be the information highway. It's obvious by now you can't build a healthy society using American spy technology. I'm not saying call it Buy the Buy Biden, The New Economy says it all. When all this cash becomes the new global currency, that will help Americans save face for their failure.
