  21. I have a sneaky suspicion that too many US public-safety institutions have been corrupted by big money over at least 4 decades. I fear the US is about to have the results of that corruption about crash around their ears is the immediate future. We have shining example, where an aircraft manufacturer (Boeing) was allowed to self-regulate and get away with cutting corners that resulted in spectacular crashes and loss of life. Another spectacular and ongoing loss-of-life case (approaching half a million US citizens) is the Covid death toll, caused mainly by the systematic dismantling and paralyzing of relevant institutions. Yet another case that is brewing (has not yet been acknowledged and researched) is how big corporations have been allowed to pollute large areas of the US, rendering many places unfit for human inhabitation (e.g. Flint, Michigan). Still another case of corruption: Just compare how the EU regulates food production and additives Europeans consume, compared to what is going on in the US! How many US-based food additives and food production practices have been outright BANNED in the EU for years! One day the average 60-year old US citizen that has been very careful about his/her health will find that they have been feed outright poison that will negate all their careful health considerations. Finally, I reccomment that US citizens consider just WHY their areas are being consumed by heat waves / forest fires / Tornados / Hurricanes / Floods / extreme winter storms etc. Take your pick. Scientists have been predicting increasingly extreme weather patterns for decades, and you are just seeing the beginning!

  47. Has Fascism Taken Root In America? Short answer: NO, bloody NO! Has Fascism Taken Root In the US? Short answer: YES, bloody YES! America is a two-part, even three-part continent, North, Central and South America. The northern extreme is around N83° (Canadian America) and the southern extreme is around S55° (Chilean America). The crude arrogance of 'Muricans to hog the concept of what is an "American" is astounding! The most damning piece of evidence is the fact that 90% of 'Muricans could not even find 'Murica on a map if their life depended on it! The corona virus pandemic just might be the catalyst that forces the US population to face the fact that they are actually "The Crappiest Country on Earth", not "The Greatest Country on Earth". All the US population has to do is to turn out to vote, every single one of you! It might take a few months (the 2020 election) or it might take longer, even 4-8 years. Stop listening to your lying politicians, start thinking about what qualities you want in your politicians (e.g. no lies!). Politicians are experts at both lying outright and lying by omission. You, the voter, should be able to spot the difference between an empty campaign promise (Mexico will pay for the Wall!), a corporate trickle-down promise ( the Repugnican/Democrap "spiel" for 40-odd years) or a genuine 40-year commitment to working 'Muricans (Bernie). The only certainty is that 'Murica in it's current form is not sustainable. Just how bloody the showdown will be remains to be seen.
