The u.s. has remained top dog in this economic fight for as long as I can remember; with China on its heals .... may be it is time for a change? How is China doing as the rest of these countries muddle through ... ?

I wonder how many crying about the lockdown also bravely said they would live in that cabin on an isolated mountain top for a year? LMAO

Me? As long as have my wife and access to my children I could do it. I think most sailors could. At least those from my generation and older.

I could ... it has been my childhood fantasy to live out in the middle of no where ... however, it seems some people did take to the hills only to find the communities that live there already, it was katy-bar-the-door.

Thats pretty pathetic and sad actually, its only been a little over a month now!! Geez, people today are so weak, I read so many of their comments online...this one girl from my state, she commented on one of the Governors posts, she asked what she was supposed to do if she had to go back to work, but daycares were not allowed to open yet, and how would she be able to go to work?...Sheesh, how about FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF and find a way!!!


I guess she was expecting the governor to address her concern or tell her specifically what to do. LOL


I see other people, whining and crying about the restrictions, they are starting to use the words 'tyrannical' and 'unconstitutional'...and they are also asking questions...they want SOMEONE ELSE to do something about it and right the wrongs! LOL Hello...this is America...if your govt is becoming tyrannical...THAT IS UP TO THE PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH!! (its not like the FBI or CIA is going to step in and correct it).



I have no idea how the American public became this way?!

Liberals will tolerate them forever because they want their lives to be run by government.

When is a democrat not a liberal?

Liberalism

Liberals espouse a wide array of views depending on their understanding of these principles, but they generally support free markets, free trade, limited government, individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), capitalism, democracy, secularism, gender equality, racial equality, internationalism, freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion.

When they became modern ...

Democratic Party

"The Democratic Party's philosophy of modern liberalism advocates social and economic equality, along with the welfare state. It seeks to provide government regulation in the economy to promote the public interest."
