As a mental math whiz, I've been trying to describe this problem to my parents for years.
At 18 year old, I figured out this problem pretty quickly just by looking at my first tax stub. Btw, I'm 29 now; married, home, children etc.
People wonder why I'm a minimalist in my personal habits; this is one of the primary reasons. Every DIME you can save now is a DOLLAR that won't be robbed from you in the future. Every cheap/healthy habit you can form NOW is going to be a lifestyle that affords you a good living in the economy that we are creating right now!
For every dollar YOU put into Social Security that is matched by employer, you will receive 50 cents before you die. For the average American, that is a mathematical fact!
Not only that, but we have a demographic crisis that is going to further bankrupt to ability to even pay for the current mandatory spending. Boomers and Gen X did NOT have enough children to pay for their retirement habits.
You want to know why we're having labor shortages? It's not due to laziness, nor even unemployment insurance. The savings, the stimulus money, and the insurance money has been exhausted. There's a labor shortage because we don't have enough people to take over for retirees. Covid jump started this inevitability.
Those 7 Millions men you keep hearing about in the news that are unemployed; they're not kids. They're 50-65 year old men that have retired early.
Once you understand the financial and demographic disaster we are facing, the faster everything else starts to make sense. This is all about the numbers folks.

I wish people would put more thought into moving overseas before they jump ship.
There are always risks, but as of currently. I couldn't imagine a better place to be than the US. Especially with how high the tensions are on an international stage.
You have 50 sovereign states to choose from, natural resources, and services.
In a foreign country, you don't have that option. If you are locked down, mandated to vaccinate, or anything else; it is law. You have no recourse but to seek refugee status.
I wouldn't even recommend east Asia at this point. If Chinese aggression continues, you're going to be in a war zone. And with no US support, you're extremely vulnerable.
At a time where the global supply chain and reserve currency is at risk, moving to an island in the Caribbean is a very poor decision. No natural resources and no exports outside of medical equipment.
The idea is to invest in multiple assets, as well as asset classes.
For many watching this channel that are not multi millionaires, but have the means to leave. Renouncing your citizenship and moving to St. Lucia is a very poor decision.
Andrew is very well off with a wealth of assets, passports and options to endure.
The average Joe watching this channel is middle class; prospecting a move to one island with two passports and renouncing their citizenship.
I just feel that it's going to get a lot of people in trouble.

I'm 30; married, own a home, have a child.
I live in central Ohio, OH down 33 a bit. We live in a neighborhood that has many retirees, but on our own street we have at least 6 house (out of 30 that are being rented out to people older than me.
What happened was that when the FED cut rates in 2020, all these Boomers took early retirement and decided to pay cash for a new home and condo down in Florida. So they moved to their new home with a large acreage and decided to rent out their old house and condo.
So two empty nesters with an equity of $500k, snowballed that into a nest egg of millions in only 3 years. When everybody else decided to jump into the market to buy a new home in 2021, the prices started to inflate due to basic supply and demand.
I personally don't have anything against Baby Boomers, but there's a reason why they are despised. It's because by 1987 they were in their prime working years. They got to buy LOW in 1987, 2000, 2008, and 2020. All the while Gen X and every other generation were barely on their feet before every one of those recessions hit the market. I don't blame them for that, but I do get irritated when they construe it as hard work instead of lucky timing

Unfortunately, in the United States at least, the online dating phenomenon was created because of rising anti-social issues.
Personally, I began dating at 19 and found my wife at 24; she and I found each other online. I asked out 12 different women in those years and 4 of them turned into dates. The reason I went online was because there was a major problem with the social attitude of many girls that I spoke to. Many of them think its perfectly accessible to reel you along, insult you, be overtly sarcastic for no reason, or outright use you. I'm not sure if it was always this way, but it's certainly that way now.
After a while, I realized I was just wasting my time by asking women out in person. It's a lot of effort for the reward of being insulted, belittled, or used.
Many young women have no problem having you take them out on a string of dates (for free food). Just to tell you on the third or fourth date that they aren't interested in relationships. After you clearly tell them that your intentions are to eventually find a good wife and have children when you get to know each other.
Dating online simply allows both men AND women to cut through all the drama and garbage and connect with people that want similar things.
On a side note, I'm pretty sure the dating market was ironically destroyed by social media and the internet. Men obviously have their own string of problems that usually stem from immaturity, narcissism, or even Christian men that assume they are going to rule over their woman. I actually didn't know that was a thing until I met men that espoused those viewpoints. Women tend to be troubled by exaggerated egos and an irrational view of what it takes to build a life or family. Ultimately leading to pampered and entitled behavior towards family and strangers.
Many of the younger women have fallen out of favor in my extended family (including my own sister) because of excessive attitude problems.

A good man/woman is somebody that wants the best for their companion.
I was fortunate enough to find the love of my life and have a son. Nowadays, both of us look at the dating market in complete disbelief.
I know it may be unfair to generalize entire generations, but I find people 18-25 to be almost intolerable; mind you I am 29.
You can't trust men 18-25. They are completely self absorbed, porn addicted, and don't know anything, least of all anything that can make their lives better.
You can't trust women either of the same age. They are married to their own narcissism, expect to be taken care of, but at the same time champion their TikTok/prostitute lifestyles as high status. Then they cry at 30 because their clock is ticking and can't find a good man. Yet they spit on them for 12 straight years as they walked by trying to catch your attention.
My wife and I have to be creative in order to properly raise our son and hopefully future 'children'. We live in a neighborhood where the average home-owner is 50-80 years old and there are no children. At the same time, it feels impossible to relate to the younger/nihilistic types.
I am the oldest (29) of the children in my family. The remainder range from 12-23 years old. If we go to a family gathering (Easter/Christmas/Thanksgiving) the younger people provide nothing, bake nothing, and give nothing. They arrive at our events as entitled little brats. They invite their skank friends (without our knowledge) that wear mini-skirts to family gatherings, then talk about their drinking and TikTok profiles in front of everyone.
It's getting to the point where I want to stop inviting them. They were wonderful as children when I was growing up, but they are something else these days.

This is why the wife and I are moving to Montana from the eastern US.
The economies, even in the Midwest are literally facing annihilation within a short time period. If you are working gig or contract, you're starting to feel the strain.
Every month you're having to work an extra number of hours to make the same amount you made the prior month. Which is getting exponentially worse.
If people are looking for places to avoid the Federal Government and turbulence in the wake of a war, then leaving the country is probably the worst option. Though I could be wrong, it all just depends.
If this country falls into a Civil War, let alone a World War, assuming a financial collapse would have already happened; which is what usually happens. Do you really think you're going to be safe in a foreign country?
The Caribbean - exports are primarily pharmaceutical equipment with virtually nothing that is self sustainable. If global supply chains fall apart, the people in St. Lucia are going to be eating each other.
Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Philippines - these countries heavily rely on US military strength, Intelligence, and business partnerships in order to function. In the event that the US is rendered insolvent or defunct, these countries are a ticking time bomb. Chinese aggression would turn all of these into a war or occupational zone of influence.
Australia already speaks for itself.
Africa - a major Chinese investment
Western Europe - tied to the same fate that the United States is and anything to the far east runs risk of falling into Russian or Chinese influence.

@octoroidd I'm not sure why you're using murder and cannibalism to refute my statement. It rather seems an emotional attempt to refute my argument. It's futile.
You are not going to evolve independent from your ancestors. Believing that humans finally have to ability to eat correctly with technological advances ignores the entire relationship between humans, biochemistry, and mutations through time.
Your ancestors had very few options that they were limited to.
Organ meets (A, B complex C, D, Omega 3 and 9, E)
Animal meat and fats
Perhaps a variation of nuts and seasonal berries on top of that.
That is how you are evolved. To deny that would pervert a large density of scientific literature.
Even your racial background could increase or decrease certain characteristics of your gut mutations through time and it's function in regard to the availability of food.
As a generalizing statement, it also isn't uncommon for vegans to deny bio-chemistry and evolution in humans. The average vegan couldn't even explain the difference between Omega 3, 6, and 9 and their metabolic functions.
Honestly I should say (people) in general, not vegans. So forgive my irritation.
Scientific and medical knowledge among Americans is utterly appalling (in general).

Exactly! I'm a married man and thankfully I married the right woman; maternal, compassionate, and empathetic.
The 'worth' of a man in the marriage is all rooted in Protestant theology where the man is the truest form of creation; women, children, and animals are to be herded. So naturally, this ideology forces the idea that the man bears all the responsibility with all the power and influence as well. This inevitably makes you the tyrant if you follow thru a marriage to it's conclusion. Women don't respect tyrants, which is why they become fickle and disloyal.
Now, as a man, I realized that no matter what your ideology is; a marriage needs a leader. The problem is that many people see that as a a king and serf relationship. It should actually resemble the relationship between a President and Vice President for example.
For anyone not married; dual leadership DOES NOT WORK! You will be in a constant state of confusion and important decisions do not get made. Find both of your strengths and apply them accordingly to tackling life. Respect each other, support each other, and have each other's back when times get tough.

@letgobandit China, Bahamas, Belize, El Salvador, Mexico, and Canada; not much longer than a few weeks at any one location (at any one time). Plus about 40 states. I'm a routine traveler, though I've remained more domestic these past few years.
I don't have cable and I don't watch CNN btw.
I talk to people, I watch people, and I stay up to date on on the market, global economies, and trade.
I am a pessimist if that's what you're asking, but that has just allowed me to stay ahead of the curve. It's not without it's drawbacks though.
That's about it...

PROBLEM #1
Assuming that Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram are not complicit in the bot infestation.
Imagine how profitable it would be for any ONE of these companies to create enough bot accounts, so that a majority of the advertising revenue was going straight back to the corporation.
Remember when advertising on social media for profit started to become popular?
Have you noticed that bots have taken over the entire advertising environment?
It's all just a bait and switch scam folks; no different than Door-Dash or any other tech company that offers a service to (be your own boss).
I remember when many people were able to quit their regular jobs, because they were making money advertising and creating businesses on these tech company websites. NOW, nobody is making money on these sites; at least enough money to call 'justifiable'.
They create a company, screw their suppliers, screw the investors, screw the customers. Then, bankrupt a selection of their company at the tax-payers expense, and continue doing business as usual.
This is how f*cked up our business laws are and this is coming from a conservative voter.

Aside from social issues, the number one reason why conservatives lose (especially with young people) is due to the repetitive economic banter.
"Get married, buy a home, work for 30+ years, pay into Social Security!"
I am 29 years old and I am one of the last of my age group to be buying homes. People even a few years behind me can't afford it!
I was fortunate enough to buy a home in Spring of 2020, get married, and have a child.
However, for younger people this is almost impossible with how much the US Dollar has been devalued over the last 40 years. The repercussions of Covid were that the devaluation of our living standards sped up by almost a decade in a short period of time.
Many young people saw their parent's marriages destroyed in the 2000s, they look at a $400k home as utterly impossible, and they KNOW they will never receive Social Security. All the while the interest sitting on their student loans will be nearly impossible to pay off should those loans resume.
People can't even afford to pay their loans currently while we are sitting at dangerous inflationary levels. If one mishap were to take place in the stock market, the inflation would temporarily drop and then soar to 20%+ percent; it will make June inflation of 9.1% look like a cake walk.
People are terrified of the economic repercussions we are up against. So when young people hear "work harder, get married, pull yourself up"; it just doesn't click with tens of millions of people. It truly feels like fighting against a tsunami sized tidal wave.
I can't exactly empathize with their situation because the money I earned and the timing of my lifestyle were impeccable. However, I'm fully aware of what they say and how they think. The American Dream that Boomers and Gen X peddle to people doesn't exist anymore.

I've completely remained neutral on this entire conflict. Though when people that I know prompt me to choose a side; I say I'd side with Russia.
People have an immensely short memory that they've forgotten this war began in 2014 after the Ukrainian Civil War; props to the Obama Administration.
NATO along with the United States aided in overthrowing the sitting administration and installed a new government under Volodymyr Zelensky. You can listen to leaked tapes of US State Department officials conspiring on who they want to be installed in the succeeding Administration in Ukraine; all on tape and I'm surprised Youtube never took them down.
Afterwards, the US sold them anti-tank and aircraft missiles to fight a border war against Russia in the east that we know as Donbass. At the same time the Zelensky Administration took measures to persecute ethnic Russians living in eastern Ukraine, which the media loves to hide.
NATO set this all up so that the 'bear' would attack after it was poked with a stick repeatedly. They want Russia to be subjugated under their rule, seeing as it still continues to be the closest threat to Europe since the cold war.
This is all a power play by the more recently elected left-wing governments of Europe and the United States; I don't blame Russia for invading, but they gave NATO exactly what they wanted. Another excuse to go to war for profit.
Could you imagine if China overthrew the Mexican Government, made it a puppet, then sold them weapons to fight a border war against the United States??
Conflicts like this are extremely lucrative, especially if you are an official sitting on US foreign policy. You invest in commodities one day; then you enact sanctions on that same commodities the following.
However, this also completely ignores the large amount of money laundering that takes place on the Congressional level. Hundreds of billions of dollars don't actually go to research 'frogs on cocaine' or 'transgenderism in Pakistan'; aid to Ukraine anyone? No, it's a medium to give tax-payer dollars to foreign governments and international terrorists in exchange for favors, pure and simple.

My wife and I are the ONLY Millennials between our families. We are chocked full of boomers, gen X, and zoomers.
Our elders are all between 48-72 and our younger members are all between 12-23. My wife and I are both 30. I'm not sure what's going on with younger people, but our zoomers practically abandoned our family. They don't contribute, they don't cook, they don't clean up, they don't aid/help in any way, and they don't have reasoning skills.
I've known most of them personally for the last decade or two. I'm aware of all the demons and problems that my older family members have, but it's not like these children are desperately attempting to leave an 'abusive' home or get away from psychopathic/narcissistic parents.
These kids 'literally' do not give a flying - F*. They show up, take what people give them, eat their food, and then throw those people away like garbage. The problem is that most of the parents have enabled this behavior for many years.
My own sister will text us and tell us how much she would love having us over. I largely found out that her agenda was actually to 'bring us over' so that we could entertain mom, so that she wouldn't have to engage with anybody; plus she's 21 years old.
It's truly a state of excessive infantilization! They will lay on the couch with their phones when family arrives and basically ignore them.
To this day, my sister tries to guilt trip my wife and I with the 'family' lingo. "Don't leave this family." - "You'll have to explain to your son one day why you don't come around as often." - "This is supposed to be a family vacation time." All of which are one of the reasons that our family fell apart.
In my opinion, generation X is one of the largest narcissistic generations in recent American history. Generation Z was completely neglected, raised on smartphones, and they inherited all of the worst traits of their parents. While at the same time having virtually no life experience or ability to get anything done, because their parents used them as an 'apology' tour for Millennials kids.
Part of the reason you're seeing everything fall apart is because Generation Z entered the workforce in 2018 (post college graduation).

I'm a 29 year old man with a home, wife, child, and dog. I am one of those "Great Resignation" followers and could care less about 'maintaining the system' for at least the sake of the modernized world. Of course there are drawbacks to that type of thinking and unintended consequences.
I quit my job smack dab in the middle of Covid; June 2020. I was a truck driver making $70k a year; working 6 days a week, 12 hours a day. In January of that year, we were asked to sign a form acknowledging that we would accept 8 days of unpaid vacation per year, instead of 13. Which was initially 20. We had 120 guys at the time and an average of 20 call-offs per day. I bought a home and then quit my job 6 months later.
I've since made a great living being a dad and working occasional gig/contract whenever I can find it. The wife also works part time in Healthcare. We are NOT struggling, despite the inflationary insanity.
K-12, High School, College, 45 years of work, and then retire and be happy (realistically depressed)? Is that really the meaning of life? To miss out on life with the promise that it will pay off in the last stage? I saw this trap the moment I entered the work-force at 18, but I decided to do the ropes from immense pressure I got from friends and family. I avoided the University trap and worked for FedEx, later Werner Ent; all to my parent's dismay. They were extremely disappointed to learn that I was making a lot of money, living in an apartment, and dating my (now wife).
They would have been more proud to have me gobble up 100K of debt and live at home until 40 being a loser. Which is want a substantial amount of Gen X parents do to their children. They live in a world of denial about the changing times and force their 1980s religion onto their kids and ruin their lives over it. The same thing has happened to my younger sister, who will be $130,000 deep in student debt over a Bachelor of Design, smh.

To be brutally honest, in your situation (online or at Wendys) and I don't mean anything by that. Those are statistically the best places you're going to get what you're looking for regardless of what kind of man you are.
Trying to ask out people in person (these days) is more or less just for social rep or experience. They will probably all say no or lure your in for a free dinner. I'm 30, married, and have a son. Apparently I'm really good looking and have been in shape my entire life. You're wasting your time with college girls or trying to date in person. Women ignored me my entire life until I got married and had a child, then they got jealous; that's how it works.
Women mate by charisma and resource and then character afterwards; looks and fitness then become bonuses. If you be yourself and show ambition for the future; you'll get really far with most women on that.
The tricky part is that women in the modern age are lapsing 18-25 when it comes to serious dating. Culture and technology give them unrealistic standards and bad habits, then they reach 30 and start getting depression and having regrets. So naturally, you'll have a high turnover rate with college chicks. They may humor you at first, but they will assume that you are childish because you don't have a degree and that they will make more than you. Which is ironic, because they typically end up working at Starbucks for 10 years.
Take your confidence and ambitions, then go looking for a female with family values. If you date non-maternal women; life will be rough going forward. Find a girl that's about average intelligence, isn't hopped up on pharmaceuticals, calm and steady, and family oriented. The rest should take care of itself

Well, to be fair (most Trump voters are not actually voting for Donald Trump).
I voted for the man and regret it in all honesty. Though I tend to have very different reasons than most people I suppose.
The American worker has been disenfranchised by years of Reaganomics and Federal Reserve policies. Low interest rates have given rise to cheap investment in business for high return. It has also driven prices out of control, while real wages have remained stagnant more or less. They feel it at the grocery store, but they can't articulate it at the ballot box. This is how you get Trump!
Trump is a symptom, people need to understand this. NAFTA and Reaganomics has absolutely wrecked this country in the last 40 years. However, people associate Trump "Make American Great Again" with a resurgence of 1981-1986. Which in all honestly was a great time to be alive, be working, and to be raising a family. It can be confusing to understand why people vote for ideologies that destroyed their way of life later on. Even today, there's a strong minority of Russians that still show love for Stalin. They don't identify with his crimes, but rather the respect/power that is associated with him on a global scale.
Not to compare Stalin to Reagan on ethics, but the same principle applies.

I was lucky enough to find the love of my life; a farm girl that wanted to be a health care professional. No mini-skirt, no bizarre lingo, no narcissism, and no anti-social personality disorder. I married her and now we have a home and a family.
A whopping number of women 18-25 are absolutely impossible these days, especially in any metropolitan or sub-metropolitan area of the United States.
They want equity, they want equality, they want to be a Hollywood model, but they don't want to put any effort in, and they expect you to bail out all of their incompetence and mistakes; no thank you! In all honesty, I don't think the men of the same age are any different. Many of them are unmotivated, incompetent, and/or narcissistic to their over impulsive wants.
The more things change, the more they stay the same! Women have always been subject to three survival categories; real-labor, house-wife, or prosititute.
Never in my life did I think that being a 'content creator' (prostitute) would be viewed as 'high status' by the women doing it. What is happening in reality is that young women are forgoing companionship and family, while replacing it with narcissism and impulsive attention seeking.
Then, when their clock starts ticking at 30, they rush out to find a husband. Only to realize that their are no men (30-40) that will marry her and give her a family. So she blames men for her decisions and then collects cats until she dies.

Awesome job Brandon!
I swear, a mental health crisis is an understatement in this country. People are seriously malfunctioning!
Inflation, fatherlessness, despair, loneliness, pharmaceutical meds, too many single people, social media, glyphosate, autism, iPhones, EMF radiation, responsibility, meaning?
The problem is in there somewhere! We didn't used to have these issues back in the day. Even people in the 1950s were armed to the teeth and teenagers would bring rifles in their trucks to go sport shooting after school. Something has gone madly wrong and we are overlooking it.
My greatest fear is this might just be a sad case of Calhoun's Rodent Utopia playing out in the real world.

Not an incel, but a 28 year old man that's married.
Women always puzzled me, especially as a teen. I couldn't get a girlfriend to save my life, couldn't find a prom date, nothing. My first actual date was with a girl a year younger than me when I was 19 years old. Though she had some major anxiety and medical issues, so it didn't exactly work out.
I've always been on the athletic side and maintained a 3.3 GPA by the time I graduated HS. Though that never swayed girls when I was younger.
It wasn't until my first job at 18, working at a dinner theater did I realize that women took an interest in me; older women specifically 25 to 30.
I was sexually assaulted probably 5 or 6 times by various women at my job. I had two grind their rear into my crotch unannounced, I was grabbed, had my rear smacked multiple times, was kiss multiple times, and was sat on too many times to count. All unwarranted.
This really threw me off as a late teen because I never understood where this behavior came from until I got older. Mind you, I'm married to a Physician Assistant and I have an AAS that I don't use. Those making money has never been a struggle for me and I'm told I have good looks along with a great physique. On top of that; I cook, clean, sweep, do the laundry etc. It's how I was raised, because my dad and his brother were raised by a single mother. That is where the money is in a relationship.
It doesn't matter how much money I ever made, even though I bought us our first house and pay all the bills. It all came down to being a homemaker, while paying bills, staying in shape, and communicating.
I realized I was being sexually harassed at my first job because I ran my job as work the same way; with the utmost industriousness and competence.
I think it mainly has something to do with birth control and the career orientation that young women are taught. Women realistically don't understand what they actually want until they get older. That's when all the ridiculous fantasies that women have (with men that despise them) fall away. It makes perfect sense.
The other interesting find is that in quite a few research surveys. They found that women actively on birth control overwhelmingly prefer men that have significantly slimmer jawlines and builds. Which is typically a sign of genetic dispossession to male infertility, no offense to anyone.
Though the same women that went off of birth control and retook the surveys found that they were far more attracted to wider jawed males. Interesting to say the least; it would seem there's a psychological connection at the least.
I think a lot of it has to do with levels of testosterone in men and prescription medications in women to a large degree. No woman ever looked at me twice until I turned 18 and the attraction from females became unparalleled after I turned 25. I routinely get called honey, sweetie, love etc. I picked up an order from taco bell this week and the manager called me "eye candy". It's freaking ridiculous at this point.
Regardless, I think there's a large correlation with the medications that women are on. As well as the socialization and testosterone that men are having problems with.

I'm 29 and have worked in both freight and excavation plumbing.
The idea that manufacturing or (blue collar) in general will return to the United States is delusional. Most of these prospects come from very hopeful Gen X and Boomers that have great optimism to see the rust belt and their personal layoffs redeemed is some sort of vicarious fashion.
When I got initially got my CDL (which was 5 years ago); I had a class of 15 men. Three of which were from (New York, Ohio - Halliburton, and myself in FedEx). The other 12 members of the class were African green-card visas. The previous class was exclusively (African green-cards). American citizens are NOT attending these schools and they are not applying to these industries.
One thing to consider that many people are not paying attention to are demographic problems. Baby Boomers are retiring and newer generations are not footing enough of the bill to maintain the Social Security program. Millennials are 27-43 and Generation Z (the smallest generation) is right behind them with 'zero' equity. Most of both generations have been plagued with ridiculous student loan bills at the direction of their parents. It can be very difficult to convince two generations of college students to entirely switch careers after giving so much prospect into white-collar.
On top of that, due to a plethora of government and private sector incentives. A majority of young people are completely unaware that they can enter these fields with little to no overhead cost and begin making middle-class income in many instances.
Third, manufacturing in the US is not what it used to be. Job security, benefits, and wages have major pitfalls. This country has places very little value on being a producer and almost ALL of incentives on being a 'service' economy. In most cases, non-necessity services; especially in tech and gig markets.
I can't be sure that unionization or lack thereof will be the answer; on top of government regulation. However, I can say, as long as the incentives for (speculation, cheap debt, and service industry 'outsourcing') remain; wage value and equity will decline.
The fact that someone earning an 'income' pays (on average) 22% +7.69% FICA, but someone speculating on the market pays 10-15% is insane.

Can I ask what being an economist meant in reference to your comment?
I'm extremely well versed in economics myself, but your statement was more about media anecdotes if anything. I mean, you claim a colleague of yours got assaults and mugged by an African; there's no a whole lot of information there or confidence in the wording. If what you say is true, then you have my condolences. However, it seemed like low-hanging fruit to loosely attach your self to someone who may or may not have been attacked by an immigrant. Unless you meant something else entirely.
I think people are spending way too much time in the fantasy land of social media and less in real life. I've been all over the world and to about 37 states in the US. The problems are the same everywhere. Weak and complacent culture leads to an upheaval in politics and behavior. The worst people I've ever met have always been natural-born citizens without exception.
I'm well aware that there are moral/ethical problems in numerous cultures like Somalis or Chinese that make it more difficult to have a positive experience on average. However, in most cases it seems to me that the locals of a given area are unwilling to change, the economic fundamentals start banging on the door, and then they start to complain.
Here in America, a lot of culture has been lost. Not because of foreigners or DEI, but because they allowed it to die. They exchanged their friends and family for an iPad and they couldn't be happier doing so.
I will never understand how people think they can profit from a global economic system, but get mad because people want to relocate.

It's always amusing to listen to people (with no financial experience) talk about why this phenomenon exists.
CEO payouts have about as much to do with wages, as cutting Congress salaries have to do with the Social Security deficit.
Factors:
1. Artificially low interest rates stimulate profit growth 'margins'. This plays in to the neutral zone of interest rates (depending on how long they are implemented). It's very similar to how household budgets change when you keep interest rates high or low for long periods of time; levels of scarcity change (and with it, culture). Higher incentives for greed, avarice, etc.
2. Federal Funds rate bond yields and inflation; this also plays into low interest rates. Long term inflation produces more credit based profits. Credit based profits are (in a way) 'unrealized gains' as far as the banks are concerned, since the debts have to be paid back over time by the borrower.
3. Loss of Pensions and Benefits; companies have a decreased interest in retaining long term employees and many employees feel the same way. Hiring and pricing algorithms make it incredibly easy for businesses to find out (what they can pay, how long people will stay, and the demographics of their workers). The amount of consumer/employee data is insane. These international companies can usually precisely predict what you're willing to accept for a salary, how many hours you're willing to work, and how many years you will commit to. Granted there is not a black swan event like Covid obviously.
4. Technology and ease of access to the economy and workforce. For example, Door Dash drivers on average work for a period of 3-6 months. As long as there is a consistent flow of available labor pouring into the company; there is no need to raise wages of benefits.

@jyfjgtyuh It's a bad either way.
Decentralization may be good, but the fundamentals don't change.
Like GOLD, BTC would be a (currency for product exchange). The issue with gold was that nations (by nature of resources) are competitive by imports and exports.
Once a nation exhausted it's supply of gold; it must find new resources by forcibly acquiring them via Imperialism.
This led to the gold standard beginning to wane after WW1 and nations began to use credit instead. It only formally ended in 1971 under Nixon, but realistically died out between 1913-1934.
This eventually led to the idea of fiat Keynesian economics; for all their flaws they're better than gold or crypto imo.
Consider this, even if nations no longer became imperialistic after exporting all of their crypto or gold. Naturally, because BTC is decentralized; a very large amount of BTC would end up in the hands of only a few people; as it already has.
Only, as time went on it would get smaller. So basically, Trillionaires in Tokyo, Dubai, Miami, and Copenhagen (for example); would rule the world with their wallets.
Too many people focus on the (decentralization) narrative, when they should take into account that their asset values and global labor worth are being propped up by the system they claim to despise.

People don't make reasonable decisions because most of society is not reasonable. Have any of your seen how physically and emotionally degraded people in America are? We have the largest health crisis in our nation's history. All of which is the result of corporate greed that is being shielded from a lobbied government. You can't trust any agency or corporation to do what's in your best interest, because becoming healthy doesn't make them profits.
I'm 29, married, own a home, have a son etc. I will say this...
Having children and living a happy life is not a cake-walk, but most people complicate it above and beyond belief. I see many people struggle with children because they are actively participating in habits, choices, or beliefs that are detrimental to their family.
If you want to live a better life, stop following the crowd. You will buy what you are told, teach what you are told, and then die when you are told to.
It blows my mind half the time when people are spending an entire paycheck on baby formula, socially reprimanding their spouse continuously, and then pushing themselves to both work full time jobs while paying for child care. If you want the insanity of the modern world to end, stop participating in it's insanity!

Maybe he's just making a neutral statement; I believe I slept about 5 hours in a 4 day time period all the same for my firstborn. What's your point? My wife loved being pregnant and is eager to have our second child. She wants to try another home birth.
I mean no offense, but you are speaking from absolute ignorance that has been conjured by the media and healthcare companies that would love nothing more than to bill everybody $60k thru insurance providers for a birth. Doctors are pressured by insurance and administration to take measures that rapidly allow for delivery; regardless of the cost to the mother or the infant. The medical standard that we used to have in this country is a freaking joke. They treat it like an assembly line. Anybody that goes into healthcare either already knows this and leaves or stays long enough to not care. Go ask random healthcare providers if they are ready to leave their job in the next 6 months. The industry is on it's knees because it's a racket.
Birth control pills are largely Pharmaceutical greed at it's finest. It's one of the biggest reasons that so many people are employed in healthcare to begin with; to be pill salesmen.
Roughly a decade ago, they began trying to lower the age of giving birth control on the merit of reducing acne in teenagers. They could have easily changed their diet or used spironolactone.
Birth control medication has a list of negative long term side affects, just to name a few; depression, suicide, high blood pressure, hormone disruption, as well as fertility damage. The number one problem being that it is much more difficult to get pregnant after you have taken birth control long term. In many cases, the women are infertile.
The option to risk their health? That comes with the risk of having sex period; a litany of sexually transmitted diseases. Women nowadays are probably the most ignorant about their anatomy and psychology than they have ever been in history. They are not taught how to track their cycles, they are not taught how to use temperature as a method for fertility, they are not taught about periods of mucosa, nor are they taught about the highs/low of progesteron.
It's all intentional and that's the way these pill companies want it. Gotta make money off the ignorance of the masses. Corporate lobbyists run this nation and it's amazing how most of the country still hasn't figured that out.

Personally, with countries like Costa Rica, Ecuador, Argentina, and others falling into good relations with the US. I think it's essential that the US continue to build a stronger alliance with Mexico and then try to pry Panama and Brazil from Chinese influence.
One way or another, Latin America is going to be the next global power house for manufacturing and trade. Especially as Mexico continues to gain a large foothold on vehicles, computers, and other tech manufacturing.
A new trade agreement to replace many of NAFTA's problems could prove essential if the US is going to compete with BRICS nations. I'm not a huge fan of regime change, but imagine if Brazil left BRICS and entered an alliance with the US and USD.
Brazil's exports/imports are overwhelmingly going to and coming from China. If that alliance was lost, China would suffer greatly in terms of agriculture, petroleum, and steel.

I've been talking about this to friends and family for years and it all falls on deaf ears.
It's not evidence enough that my son (born several months ago) is the first child in my entire family born in the last 9 years.
In a family of roughly 75 close blood-line members; we have an infant, a 9 year old, an 11 year old, and a 17 year old.
Everybody else is between 23 and 73. Btw, at the age of 29; I am the ONLY married person and the ONLY one with a child.
My own parents continues to badger Generation Z for (not picking up the slack and working) to better the economy and the labor shortages.
Newsflash, who retired from the largest positions of competence and prestige in the last 3 years during the Covid fiasco? Because it wasn't young people.
Those 7 Millions Americans you see in the headlines "not working" as almost exclusively people between the ages of 45 and 60 that retired early or called it quits due to lockdowns, vaccines, work strain, or even a cultural wakeup call. The idea that a bunch of 20-25 year olds are the reason that the labor force is empty is foolish. Many of those people haven't even left school, let alone found their first job.
Look at the age statistics for each industry! Even Drivers for Door-Dash have an average age of 49.
The priority jobs in the economy: electrician, plumber, truck driver, Doctor, Nurse, Firefighter, Police officer, etc. Are all held by the competency of middle aged Americans.
This problem was a LONG time coming and I find it quite embarrassing that Americans haven't realized that (not having any children) has resulted in a societal collapse.

@skye Based on what?
Type 2 diabetes is caused by insulin resistance. Receptors become overtly saturated by the insulin and begin to lose their function. This can happen from eating too often, as well as eating too many high glycemic foods, considering volume as well.
Going on a ketogenic diet will erase type 2 diabetes. My mother in law and wife have both accomplished this..
I hope you're not referring to that intramuscular fat theory cited by one research scientist... There's not a shred of clinical data to prove it.
If what you say is true, where would prehistoric humans have gotten their fats and vitamins? Plants would not have provided the amount and variation needed.
Native people's that still live using the old ways in places like Indonesia have a diet of pork, organ meats, coconuts, and fruits.
African tribes aren't that different: pork, chicken, potatoes, organ meats, and fruits.

I really admire your efforts, but I think you are creating too big of a goal. This kind of behavior is deeply rooted in childhood development between 2-5. It's almost impossible to change, unless the child undergoes willful growth, self-reflection, and therapy to a certain extent.
My sister (21 years old) is an absolute user and manipulator. This is because my mother was an NPD as we grew up and made her the golden-child, while everything was blamed on me. She learned that the only way to be loved is thru financial offerings.
I have always budded heads with my mother, but my sister learned how to get want she wanted AND appease her at the same time.
So now, she has become a full blown narcissist that uses people to get what she wants; then throws them in the trash.
I spent YEARS trying to correct her behavior and become a beacon of positivity in her life and growth. It all went to waste when she began using me when I offered to spend time with her and help her with school and her endeavors. The moment I told her 'no' when she wanted something; she ghosted me.
My wife and I cut back on Christmas this year due to inflation and my sister made a big fuss about it. Both my mom and sister jumped on the 'you don't care about family' train when we opted not to receive gifts or give them a few months ago.
Win your battles when you can, but don't waste your life attempting the impossible. My dad wasted his entire life being married to my mother (abused and belittled) for everything he ever did. Thankfully, he's contemplating divorce so that he can finally live his life and not have my mom suck his pension dry. Unfortunately, as he falls out with mom; he's falling into my sister's trap now. She fully expects him to take care of her indefinitely thru college and pay off her bills.
The moment he does; she'll ghost him out of her life as well.

If you have the means, temperament, and integrity to do so; I would say yes.
The first part about setting yourself up for success in the parenting world is finance. This is a step that many people cannot manage even on their own. Stop buying things that provide no value in their life, stop wasting things that can be re-used or repurposed, and lastly creating habits that allow you to live a better and cheaper lifestyle.
Once you do that, you really need to work on your physical and emotional health; which even fewer people can do. Do you have trauma, PTSD, or insecurities that manifest themselves in horrible behavior? You should truly consider fixing those before having children.
Third, you need to understand that you constantly need to be acquiring knowledge. Constantly learning, being proactive, and adjusting yourself to changing times and the information available to you. Let the dead wood burn off and plant new seeds in life. There's nothing more destructive than a person that lives their entire life status quo and full of pride.
Fourth, realize that this isn't 1980 and it certainly isn't 2005. There is a wealth of information out there, but there is also a wealth of new ways that governments, businesses, and individuals can prey on you. You are the king of your castle and your home is your kingdom. If you don't defend it as a 'just' ruler, it will fall apart and be taken over.

Unpopular opinion here, but if your politicians are getting worse; I'd bet your culture is too.
In the Midwest, the political behavior in elected positions seems very reflective of the attitude that most people have.
I get the door dropped in my face half the time, a significant amount of people don't even say "please" or "thank you", not to mention the driving has become erratic to say the least. People give each other dirty looks for pushing any direction even close to them at the grocery store. Many of them can't take a moments peace to put their phone away. People completely ignore customers at the front desk REGARDLESS of restaurant or fast food joint.
Mind you, this is all of Ohio. It's also all of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and many metropolitan areas of the southern United States.
We have a serious cultural problem in this country and I think it's time we acknowledge it in order to fix a much bigger problem.
Prescription meds; whether they are Statins, Zoloft, or Xanax are getting thrown out like Halloween candy. People simply can't take it I presume; they walk out into traffic as if they wanted to die.
I can't be the only person that has noticed such volatile behavior in the last 6 to 12 months. I mean, we have patients that walk into the office (that we know) and are genuinely nice people. Only to be screamed and cursed at when their surgery date has to be moved two days.
Whether it's the fuel-grocery prices, vaccines, social media, or something else; there is seriously something wrong with people nowadays. It's like everybody is nice and gentle; until you inconvenience them for 5 seconds and they are ready to rip your throat out at a moments notice.

Well, to be objective, people with Jewish backgrounds do hold a large disproportion of wealth and powerful positions.
The problem is that 'idiots' jump straight to the (conspiracy argument) and completely ignore the math behind competence hierarchies.
Jewish culture has been sustained over thousands of years because their ideas and practices are simply (derp) 'sustainable' lol
Historically, every time there was a flood, famine, or economic collapse in a region or nation. The people living there would notice that the Jewish families were persevering the hard times. So they formed conspiracies about devil worship, thieving, and mysticism.
The fact is, Jews build their homes smart, they grow/store food properly, they eat relatively healthy diets, and they use those successes to lend money to those that ask for it. It's not a conspiracy; they are simply smarter than the general population and plan accordingly.
Stupid people love to blame others for their misfortunes and that human failing hasn't changed whatsoever.

I'm an independent that voted for Trump in 2016.
Believe me, this Presidential race was over before it began. Biden is insufferable, but that doesn't mean everybody is going to magically swap to Trump. Best case scenario, you get a 2020 rematch and Trump still loses. Republicans are focusing too much on social issues and voter assumptions, while completely ignoring the math.
Republicans CANNOT lose a single state that they won in 2020. On top of that, they must win 3 out of 5: Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. Democrats easily get an additional 5 million eligible voters that will show up to vote heavily in their favor.
The biggest problem is Republican voter turnout for 2022 and 2023. If Midterms and the recent General election reflect anything for GOP turnout in 2024; then Republicans will lose in a landslide.
Trump fatigue is real and Republicans don't have any energy left for another rematch. The only way Trump becomes President again, is if we have a Ross Perot situation where RFK takes more votes away from Biden.
In an open election between Trump and Biden; Trump will get crushed. His indictments have partially strengthened his support among men, but drastically cut down support from women. Polls largely indicate that Nikki Haley voters will vote for Biden if she is not the nominee.
Unless 25% of people under 40 magically switch from a (2020 Biden vote) to a 2024 Trump ticket; the Republicans will lose.

Back in my day = (back when I was born in the capital of the world, where our currency could afford ANYTHING, and we could live off one income). Then concludes we had to struggle.
Imo, people need to hold Boomers feet to the fire more often. They are the generation that on average got the equivalent of a $20k gift from their parents after graduating high school, got to smoke and drink to their life's content, stole valor from the Silent Generation that fought in Vietnam, got to buy a house for 2 years worth of income, and also got to invest in the stock market in 87, 00, 08, and 2020 during their peak years.
Yes, the generation that got their assets for peanuts and made it harder for younger generations by inflating their assets thru currency devaluation really worked hard for their livelihoods. Believe it or not, I don't have a problem with it. Just stop pretending that bootstraps got your there and start admitting you were born at the right time.

A combination of poor food quality, prescription med use, lack of meaning in life, and aging out of the dating pool.
Yes, if you are a woman and are not seeking marriage/children in your 20s; you are aging out of the dating pool. It will become harder and harder to find tiered men that have the same interests. Women date roughly men of the same age and older. If your a 30 year old woman, there are VERY few men between 30 and 35 that are seeking children and a marriage. If they are, the odds of them being Tier A are slim to none.
As far as technology goes, people have very little fortitude these days and cave to the slightest bit of adversity. We had people literally killing themselves because they couldn't visit their friends during Covid. That's a serious lack of emotional stability if you ask me. Technology (mainly social media) had bankrupt our children's emotions and future. They can't handle being told no, they can't handle delayed gratification, they can't handle adversity, they can't even handle voting repercussions.
Most of this stems directly from screen-time and social media. The children that began getting the devices at 4 are now growing older and the world is becoming unstable.

Conservative here! This is a HUGE surprise - NOT...
Hypocrisy in these kinds of political and religious groups is about as American as apple pie.
Let's face it, Republicans have nothing to offer anymore. We are being tugged between a bad inflation cycle and the threat of war overseas. Not just in Eastern Europe, but in the Middle East and South Pacific. At the same time, these right-wing organizations and political pundits want us to believe that our greatest concerns are transgenderism, library books, and Disney? Get real...
The 2023 General Election has already shown that Republican politics are deeply unpopular with the general public, especially after 7 years of Trump. I'm from Ohio, a middle-ground leaning conservative safe haven. For the first time in our history, both Marijuana and Abortion legislation passed overwhelmingly in the state constitution. I may not be favorable to one or the other, but I'm not going to be delusional about the results. I can assure you that not many people are taking these kinds of organizations seriously and this kind of complacency is going to cost the GOP big time in the 2024 election.
My greatest fear though, is that their loss becomes an excuse for Jan 6th 2.0.

Well, that's just the problem; what's an exaggeration, lie, or misuse of words anymore?
I mean yes, Trump doesn't tell the truth. However, sometimes it feels like nobody knows the truth and he shoots in the dark. Then sometime later we realize how dumb it was.
I'm not sure how you quantify 'lies or exaggerations' in a day and age like this. We're all human, but I feel that a lie must be an intentional distortion of a known truth.
Tbh, I don't think Trump really lies, as much as he just throws stuff at the wall and hopes it's true to some capacity. Plus, he's an entertainer and they are used to saying things to get crowds going. So I've never really figured out how to interpret it most of the time.
I mean Biden and Harris do the exact same thing. SO again, I'm not sure where the limitations are on human beings.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
As always, humans must find their own ignorant religions to justify their lust for power, greed, envy, and wants. It's terrifying these days because all of these are masqueraded in social media as virtue and compassion for others.
Typically, somebody who wants the population to decrease is someone who has genocidal intentions and/or looks forward to the idea of being in the top 1% of superior peoples that avoids a genocide. There's a strong factor of envy and contempt in this kind of thinking.
On top of that, you have a wealth of people on pharmaceutical medications like birth control, statins, xanax, zoloft etc. Their minds and bodies are messed up beyond belief. They see misery and dread as the norm of human activity.

I am 29, married, own a home, have a child, and have an Associate's Degree that I never used.
The educational system is attempting to keep up with the volume of students that are falling behind. Parent are not being much help either because of the large disconnect between parent and child these days; probably from digital media and screen time. So naturally, the standards are being dropped across the board. Which is why it appears that anybody can get a college degree these days. I've seen teacher and after teacher pass students that are absolutely flunking in their courses.
My sister (bless her heart) is 20 years old and was accepted to an Interior Design program her second year at a University. Believe it or not, her reading, writing, and vocabulary are at a 7th grade level. She went through rigorous student aid and tutoring until around 2013 when school districts began to overhaul their grade and homework systems.
All of a sudden (with no effort) she went from receiving Cs to receiving As and Bs in all her classes throughout high school. Her research papers were full of grammatical errors, sentence structure problems, and simply not following instructions. It got to the point where she stopped correcting herself and quit taking any of it seriously. She still turned in 3 of those research papers in the ladder years of High School and received an A and 2 B's for that work; research papers that would have earned me a D- at best when I was in school.
She failed 3 of the 8 criteria for entering her Interior Design program. Being absent two prerequisite courses AND a late submission past their applicant due date. They told my parents that their program was intensely competitive. Yet, she was accepted at the last minute regardless with no questions asked (on the first try).
It got to the point where my own father, as well as my wife became concerned that my sister was being accepted into an atmosphere and program that would be doing her a disservice due to her SAT scores. On one half, I'm happy that she's made it this far. However, on the other, I am paranoid that these teachers passing her along are doing her a major disservice. She might get to the finish line and part of the way through and be completely broken by the reality that awaits her in the job market.

The irony of your comment is a perfect example of what I just addressed. I'm not saying woke (bs) is acceptable, but people like you pulled your kid after watching a single segment of Fox News.
Go take a look at the educational metrics/stats for homeschooled children in the US the last several years. A whopping majority of those kids are falling behind on basic mathematics, reading, and writing, period!
That doesn't mean children in public schools are doing better. It means that the parents aren't actually doing what they're supposed to.
Parents care more about getting politically irritated than actually caring about how it might potentially affect their children.
In the last several years, we saw mobs of parents (that never attended a 'parent teacher conference', answered emails, or showed up at schooled to address failing grades in their entire adult lives.
But low and behold, have Fox News throw up a few stories about indoctrination and these same parents show up at their local school with 'death threats' and political signs.
You people are being played. Last time I checked; FOX News IS mainstream media.
I can't tell you how many crazy conservative parents we having sending death threats and angry political ranting voicemails to educators in our district. All over something they saw on Fox News.
They cherry pick looney teachers from all over the country and convince viewers that it's happening in their local school.
Do any of you actually realize how ridiculous it sounds for teachers to be systemically indoctrinating your child? (making $40k a year - over-worked, underpaid, and dealing with assault and harassment on a daily basis?)
People don't even realize that this is one of 'many' issues that will break the Republican Party.

I don't find it odd whatsoever.
Generation X birthed televangelism, military worship, and religion of pharmaceuticals. They were the first generation to live during (Reaganomics and the low-interest environment). Allowing utter trash families to get low interest mortgages and slingshot into the middle class.
Growing up in the late 90s and early 2000s, I lived in two separate middle class neighborhoods. Everybody (except one family) came from absolute trash backgrounds; single parent households, drugs, evicted house living, and almost all were abusive.
The finances may change, but the culture carried on. The families I grew up with were extremely toxic, many had violent behaviors, many alcoholics, etc.
We are just now seeing all of those children grow into adulthood and the hell that they lived thru.

@@James_Willow My relation to the topic may be anecdotal, but if you look at statistics for abuse, alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. All of it jumped after Covid.
People were forced to be together during lock-downs that largely had no social relationship. Children with absent parents and wives with absent husbands, etc.
Of course this issue hasn't been studied on a large scale, but I think the idea behind it is up the right alley.
It's not just in my immediate family; it was in all of my extended family and friendships.
It could very well be unique to my circle, but it seems all to suspicious to be happening within the same short time period.
My entire family fell apart post-2020; we're talking at least two dozen relationships (marriages, friendships, siblings, co-workers, all of which went to he11.

Women are probably the most consequential victims in the greater scheme of society and much of it was started with feminists. For the first time in human history, men have choice picks over women.
A woman is most fertile at the age of 18 to 21 generally speaking, but this is not when women are having children. What women have actually been doing is foregoing the family unit to pursue their careers largely do to peer and parental pressure.
By the time the woman is 30, her clock starts ticking and he brain screams "husband and children." Unfortunately, by that time it's far too late for many. A women will generally enter the dating market by starting to date men their own age and five years older. They soon realize that the only men still looking for a woman to bear children with largely don't exist.
The family oriented men were married off almost a decade prior and the only men still circulating in the dating pool are largely men that want nothing to do with getting married and having kids. They just want a booty call when it's convenient, which could explain the astronomical divorce rate.
I don't think women realize that they are not a part of a new, free, and fair system. If anything they are slaves to a pathological culture.
I also have a high suspicion that the early feminists movements were not interested in freeing women, but more or less enslaving them. Look at who the founders were. Unmarried, unattractive, and childless females.
Could it be that these women chose to manipulate other women into throwing out marriage and children, simply because they weren't able to do so themselves? Misery loves company...

@crabbyhayes1076 Two consecutive quarter of 'negative' GDP growth.
By that definition, Q2/Q3 of 2022 were a recession and we haven't been in one since.
Keyword, 'negative GDP'.
(1%, 2%, 3%, 2%, 1%, 0.5%) - not a recession
(1%, 2%, -3%, -2%, 1%, 0.5%) - recession

Nah, I know too many of the people that support him. It has nothing to do with racism, sexism, or corruption; it's very simple.
They watch FOX, Newsmax, QAnon, and Alex Jones. They literally believe that the Biden Administration is sending out goons to blow up railroads, set forest fires, poison the wells, and destroy the economy with high interest rates (because they're evil) lol.
I can't make this stuff up, I truly fear for this country. Theocracy is never too far away from taking over again, and believe me. Theocrats have rigorously infiltrated the MAGA movement.

I began online dating in 2017; it was already dead tbh. Though I am thankful that I found my 'now' wife. An incredibly lucky catch, because both of us were exhausted with the losers online. We hit it off and the rest is history; happily married and I have a son.
In my experience, I guess I was the ugly duckling as a child. Then magically I turned 18 and I ended up getting sexually assault some 7 different times by women at my first job about a decade older than me; not that I hated it. However, it was a crazy experience.
I got serious about dating at 22 and did it solely in person. Personally, I had about a 25% success rate for getting numbers, but the attitude problem was what killed it for me. A lot of women under 30 think it's perfectly acceptable to insult men for no reason whatsoever. It was such a big turnoff and felt I was getting nowhere. The last date lured me into a thing of dates (Christian girl) so that she could get free meals.
When I went online, the women were absolutely crazy and not in a good way. Many are downright psychopaths, stalkers, and some will offer sex before you get 5 minutes in. Maybe it's because I have more of conservative personality, but it was one of the most disgusting experiences I ever had before I got lucky in the end.
If I ever lost my wife, I would never go back into the dating world.

The opposite was true for me!
I spent a considerable amount of my young life as an introvert that was attempting to converse my plans more; push myself to be more social. The more I shared, the more it was patronized and/or shamed as silly, stupid, or impossible.
The moment I began to focus on myself and cut most of my family and friends out of my in-depth conversations; my life began to bloom.
Turned out that I was being manipulated my entire life by my NPD mom and energy sucking relatives that believe in working, suffering, and dying. I knew something was always wrong, but it's hard to put the pieces together when everybody pretends that YOU are the problem, when in fact you're the scapegoat. The people I spoke to were largely just looking for something 'good' or 'productive' to squash for amusement.
I met a wonderful woman, kept my best friend and father, and am in the process of cutting out everybody else that is a blood sucking vampire.
In my experience, most people you share your plans with either try to compare (the one-up you) OR they try to make your plan out to be silly because they are losers.

@halfnorfolk5310 Bud, I'm going to tell you right now. I've shot like 10,000 cops in GTA 5 and I'm perfectly normal. That was when I was a middle-teen.
The problem with these kids is that their parents neglect them and don't raise them.
Even the middle class kids are exhibiting anti-social behaviors. Probably from parental neglect and excessive screen time in early childhood development.
From what I've gathered, iPad kids are very susceptible to having an under-developed neutral pathway for empathy and kindness.
Clinical psychopathy also saw a large increase in younger generation samples.
Turns out that when you ignore/yell at your child, have no relationship with them, and give them untethered access to technology since the age of 12 month. They tend to be rather dysfunctional.
I never got to indulge in any kind of video games or phone until I was 14 years old.
Believe me, I have a younger sister that got fully exposed to it at 8 years old and she exhibits anti-social behaviors. Overt narcissism, no empathy, and problematic social behaviors like telling people to 'shut up' or 'using her hands to animate her disapproval with people', not to mention stealing, and her disgust with little children; she's 21 btw.
The kids that were exposed around 1-3 are on a whole different level of psychotic and dysfunctional. We have people in my own family (teenagers) that give me 'school-shooter' vibes due to inappropriate and bizarre behavior. It really scares me and my wife.
This isn't about (education, learning, or even moral compass). These kids LITERALLY do not have the same brain-function that you and I do. The future is going to be rife with mental illness; it kind of already is.

Well, all of this comes down to the tech industry, mixed with the USD as the reserve currency.
US interests lie in Taiwan primarily for semi-conductors; Nvida, Taiwan Semi, Qualcomm, etc. Proxy wars have been raging between the Dept. of Commerce and China for quite some time. However, recently the US began banning high-end semi-conductor exports/imports between the Chinese and US. It's been crippling their industry since October 7th of 2022. So the Chinese will now become more reliant on Taiwan and the US to fund their tech advancements. This puts China at a major disadvantage to be a tech competitor and is most likely going to be looked back upon as the primary precursor to war. Similar to the US oil embargos placed on Japan before the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
On top of that, all global nations know that the US cannot continue to guarantee it's public debts; the US included. So, at the same time, US officials are most likely going to use any military conflict to absorb their debt obligations and possibly make other nations pay for them. This is largely what is happening in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict. Ukraine is massively indebted to a series of long-term funding contracts between them and the United States; as are Germany, France, Poland, etc.
The USD is at stake of being demounted and not replaced. All nations of the world know this! The US will eventually have to go into hyperinflation or a series of global/military involved agreements to alleviate the debt. It's all a game of "I'm getting desperate, so pay for my stuff!"

@laaaliiiluuu Not necessarily, it's the choices we make to better ourselves, our family, and others.
The seven deadly sins may be a fiction of imagination to many, but they are metaphorically true in many ways.
Pride blinds us from humility
Envy blinds us from integrity
Greed blinds us from spirituality, etc...
It took me a long time to figure it out, but most people are not complicated. We are a mammalian species that doesn't escape the equilibrium and bell curves of the natural world.
People are not going along with the propaganda because they believe it to be true. They go along with it because it's convenient or even furthers their own agenda.
Lockdowns and mask mandates are a complete project of envy. "If I can't host a party or ignore the mandates, then nobody else should either "
It is precisely the same pathological thinking that gave you the Third Reich and the USSR.
People knew that Jews were being rounded up, it was just convenient to ignore it.
People knew that capitalists, priests, and sympathizers we're being rounded up, it was just convenient to going along with it.
Playing your part as the tyrant is very convenient when the people being hauled off represent what you could have been.
People would rather blame others than take responsibility for their own shortcomings.
That is the evil of pride and envy, playing itself out on the grand scale.

@torachan23 Sounds like a life of nihilism.
Doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. Middle aged, parents deceased, no spouse, and no children in a recipe for disaster.
What you'll find is that it's going to lead to boredom, depression, and suicidal thoughts.
You have a curve of about 1% of the population that can put up with that and be happy at the end of the day running their companies. Though most people just come up with endless excuses for why things are not their fault in the current predicament.
I'll tell you what's wrong with men these days. Narcissistic tendencies, no responsibilities, and porn addiction. It will make a man absolutely useless.
What you need to do is find a woman that's not on birth control and start doing things around the house. It's not rocket science.
I'm not judging either of your lives, because I don't know you. My experience with many men has been that most of them are absolute losers. Overweight, porn addicted, man-children that either still live at home or alone in an apartment.
They say they are happy and content as they lie through their teeth. This all comes down responsibility and carrying your burdens while standing tall with your shoulders back. MGTOW breeds baseless collective contempt among people that have never even experienced what it's like to have a female companion.

1. Healthcare is not healthcare; are you trained as a pill salesman.
2. Total burn-out, over-worked, over-time, all the time.
3. The staffing is really bad, so nurses are over-burdened on their floors.
4. The social atmosphere for staff and patients is becoming bad; a toxic environment where bullying and intimidation are becoming rampant.
5. The pay is usually not enough to justify the degree and a continuation in the field. Why work for $80k full time, while a travel nurse will get 50%-150% more pay to do your job for a month?
All of these factors are going to inevitably lead to a collapse of the healthcare system. Physical and mental health in the United States has never been worse. Plus, the calls for a single-payer system are gaining head-way in politics. If people think it is the solution to healthcare, then they are not paying attention to the causality.
Get insurance companies and Medicare OUT of this business, make Pharma patents open-source, and end the FDA and CDC protocols. All they are is a giant circus for corporations to bribe and infiltrate, all so they can use the power of law to subdue their competitors and rip you off at the hospital and pharmacy.

I perfectly empathize with the inflation problem that has taken place over the last 5 years.
However, I do want to point out that most of the time people are omitting massive parts of their story. Like student loans, ridiculous mortgages, or even several vehicle loans, credit card debt, etc.
Life isn't as hard in 2025 if you aren't drowning in debt. My wife and I paid off $40,000 in medical debt since 2022 and killed $167,000 in student loan debt since 2020. Btw, the student loan debt was for her schooling as a Physician Assistant, which is a highly rewarding career.
I knew back in 2012 (at 18 years old) that the college gimmick was a scam. How are people still running off the school for art, photography, psychology, and other dead end fields that result in no reward? I repeatedly get told that Gen Z knows what's up. Yet they seem to be the most compliant and gullible generation in my entire life experience.
I understand there are exigent circumstances, taking care of children, taking care of elders, etc. However, most of the time this is coming from a ridiculous decision that people are making excuses for.
I got my CDL in 2019 and we had 15 student; 12 of them were green-cards. I think it's embarrassing that American born children aren't willing to stoop to driving a semi in order to make $75k+ starting out the gate. People need to work smarter and quit looking for get-rich-quick ideologies.

@ko-Daegu No, I take ibuprofen and expectorants etc.
There's a huge difference between patented items like Lipitor and open source anti-inflammatory drugs.
The key is reading the clinical research trials. Some 90% of them are crap with a 1% efficacy and/or negative risks.
For example, Lipitor significantly raises your risk of coronary artery disease, stroke, and kidney failure. It is listed as a 37% efficacy, though it's absolute efficacy is 1.7% in it's clinical trial research. The company then takes that number and divides it against the initial control group to get a larger percentage. Almost all Pharmaceutical companies do this to get their product sold and FDA approved.
Vioxx by Pfizer was approved by the FDA, then it ended up killing 27,000 people before they yanked it off the shelf and lost a civil lawsuit paying $1.1 Billion in damages.
It's all about trends. Once these companies are exposed publicly, they'll eat each other and come out with a new product to right the wrongs. It's a giant circle jerk.
The current trend is still (lower your cholesterol). They put people on Statins typically at age 45-50 and those people will most likely have a bypass by 60 and dead within a few years after.
Artificially lowering your cholesterol can make you very suspectable to infection and vitamin D deficiency. Since they go hand in hand in your bio-chemistry.
The morbid part, is that when those people end up in the hospital, they blame it on bad genetics.
Our healthcare system is fucked up.

The unrest and division we are seeing in the United States is a self fulfilling prophecy spawned by none other than social media corporations.
Facebook, Twitter, TikTok etc. all generate ad revenue purely from user engagement. This is why their algorithms are designed to be as addictive as humanly possible.
They are going to show you exactly what you want to see and on top of that they will show it to you in the most controversial order. Facebook began re-programming those algorithms in 2018 to show you the biggest dumpster fires first.
There's a reason that mainstream media has become so bad and it's very simple. They cannot compete with the user/viewer volume of the social media sites. It's absolute desperation on their part.
Yes, there are bad players, but most of this issue comes down to individuals making poor decisions.
Data markets are immensely lucrative. What you like, what you buy, which coupons you use, where you travel, what day of the week, what time, etc. All of this is sold and reduced to algorithms; they know you better than you know yourself.
They sell your consumer data and use the rest of your habitual behavior to make you engage more and more with platforms like Facebook.
Considering that Facebook had 1.9 Billion regular users, what could go wrong when you constantly incite an endless cycle of dumpster fires to people that are none the wiser that they are being manipulated?
This is the end result.
