ALLAN'S CANADIAN PERSPECTIVE
If you want to know who’s feeling the most pain... [because of Drump's idiotic tariff war] look at these images of marine traffic!
The green arrows are cargo ships in motion!
The circles are ships anchored or docked!
The screenshots are of Shanghai and Los Angeles!
The Port of Los Angeles is completely dormant!
Shanghai is booming!
I got an interesting question the other day!
Q: "Will the USA ever recover from the stupidity of MAGA?"
So... we will let one of our contributors... who is much more qualified by virtue of his two decade "stint in the states" ...answer!
A: The thing is... that the Republicans could be defeated... and MAGA could also be rendered powerless!
BUT, that still won’t change the passivity of tens of millions of woefully ignorant and insular Americans who aren’t even MAGA!
There are so many millions of perfectly decent Americans who don’t espouse MAGA values, but who are so embarrassingly uneducated and lacking in even the most fundamental basics of intuitional wisdom and emotional intelligence!
I’ve watched so many clips of Americans on the street being interviewed.
They’re not MAGA, just regular folk.
They’re asked about the most basic things!
And they have no clue!
One young lady couldn’t identify the US on a map!
She giggled!
She’s not MAGA, but she’s more focused on what the latest Spring fashions are than the world she occupies.
Others were questioned about who they will vote for in the upcoming election.
A surprising number of people tried to appear switched on, proffering gibberish about which way their vote would go, without realising the election HAD ALREADY TAKEN PLACE!
They had no idea they were being had!
They didn’t care enough to know when the election was... or what the issues are!
I lived in the US for 20 years, and trust me, my high school and college mates were overwhelmingly stupid.
Utterly vacuous!
I’d have to find the quirky/nerdy/foreign students to congregate with in order to get an ounce of intellectual stimulation.
It’s so embarrassing.
Soldiers actually sacrificed their lives so these twats could prioritise The Kardashians over their own politics and future.
America is full of people who are entitled, complacent and oblivious, and who, until 9/11 had no worries.
Even 9/11 didn’t wake many of them up.
They don’t realise how high the stakes are now, and that they truly need to pay attention and make an effort to safeguard their future.
The US has a dire education problem.
Heck, my son, an 18 year-old Brit can identify all US states on a map, and he doesn’t even need to know that information.
The US places such little importance on proper education, and we’re seeing the consequences.
