The End of America?

[Haunted Water]

Someone else has the same opinion as me!

I've been thinking this for about a year, and this only proves my point more. With the democrats in power, this is inevitable.

Dems or Reps won't change a thing. America fails to see what is going on. We have politicians who are more worried about serving more terms than actually doing their job correctly. If they want to save the economy, stop cutting stupid s*** like first responders and education, and cut down the spending on the defense budget. We are the most powerful in the world, by a long shot.
And finally, for god's sake! REFORM SOCIAL WELFARE PROGRAMS!
It's what is screwing us over now.

Note: I have not read all of the posts in this thread, just some of them. Don't say I read all of them until I do.

I only have one thing to say.
the beginning of the era of the Hunger Games
I can just imagine my disappointment in the so-called "united" states of America when the people actually start to kill famous figures.
I mean, we are humans, after all. But we are also individuals. We don't evolve, we think. Half animal and half individual...

America has been a mess for a while. This isnt anything new. Since partisanship rose in the 70s its been going down hill ever since.

Its not really a parties fault either, its the overall government structure that's really terrible. Congress has some of the biggest criminals in the world. They sit around doing nothing collecting 6 digit paychecks. People in congress have to "work" about 2 days out of an entire month, which means them showing up to a meeting and arguing in circles. The legislative branch is the most dysfunctional and powerful branch in american government right now and is probably destroying our country more than anything. No matter whoever comes president, they can shoot down anything.

When it comes to parties, neither of them have a clue either. The republicans are obviously out of their minds, they have no grasp of reality. I worked for the Democrats in last years elections and honestly, they are just the new status quo. They arent the future of any means. There idea of reality is a bit better than Republicans and they at least care a bit more about humanity, but they still sweep under the rug all of America's real issues. The Dems still support the big banks, they still support big Pharma, they dont have a legitament policy for balancing immigration, etc.

The debt isnt as bad as everyone thinks. Its a very huge misconception that this is one of our top problems. The british had 4x the same amount of debt in the 1800s (and when you take in fact inflation thats insane) and they lived to tell the tale. Debt isnt a big deal if you can afford it. America has enough production to afford the current and even a decent amount of future debt, so this isnt our biggest problem. America does need to bring jobs home though and find something else to export sides Diabetes (seriously, we dont make anything outside of corn syrup).

The biggest problem in this country is actually a lot of things that people dont talk about. Over population is going to screw us, the environment is getting worse, the FDA is worthless (they allow antibiotics and slime into our food and allow food companies to lie about it), theres a lot of concern over NDAA and Patriot Act (i dont think they are a big deal but they dont serve much of a purpose either), the drug war, all the things the media wants you to forget about.

But the reality is that every state is its own country. As long as you dont live somewhere that completely sucks, it doesnt matter whats happening federally.

Here's some info about the guy. He a well known con artist.

As for the collapse of the US dollar. It won't happen any time soon

Haha, I have seen the same format that the video uses countless times, it's a popular internet scam format. (However, usually they use websites instead of videos.)

First they promise you something that will make you live sooo much better for 100% free, they keep talking about what they are going to present you, they tell you how much you can trust them and what they have achieved (of course, with no proof), they keep telling you WHY YOU NEED THIS all the time, and once they eventually have to offer you advice they will tell you to pay money. Unless you don't pay, you usually get a little bit of advice (for a non-existent problem, that is), but if you want it all you have to pay. Thank you so much for this useful, 100% free advice, you only want to help, right.

Why did you think you can't jump in the video to a place you want, not even see the time that it's going to run? Hmm?

Don't be so naive. If you are stupid enough to be tricked by this shit, you are not ready for the apocalypse anyway, no matter what.

All I got out of that is that you think Pokemon is turning us into Commies. Okay.

There are plenty of problems facing the US and the entire world today. None of them are going to be solved by investing in Argentenian farms. The constant lack of sources and him stating that "I'll explain x y z right now" only to change the topic back to doing what he wants you to makes it obvious that this is a scam.

Oh, and...

Poke Mon is a methodology for getting you to accept the doctrine and it includes Darwins use of dialectics at its base. Believe it or not. Your game is actually subverting your mind into the direction that the Marxists want you to go.

If you want that people listen to you, you should not insult their precious (and innocent) hobbies, it's just going to work against your whole statement no matter what. Especially if you say something completely ridiculous like this. :'D (At least learn to write Pokémon correctly before assuming stuff like that, you know, it reveals how "much" you know about it!)

Man, that guy has a boring voice.

But, yeah, any time someone is trying to sell you anything, take anything they say with an entire bag full of salt.

Also, Pokémon definitely turns you into communists. Ever notice that Pokémon Centers offer FREE healthcare? You can just wander around the entire world on your own without needing to have a job or pay for food!

No I didn't notice the age of this thread lol. But the pusher can't be a bot.

 

[Teal]

Notice how they actually mention "Poke Mon" and "our game". Human "spammer", sure.

In fact, from what I understood from somebody else s research on this topic, America s debt is not as bad as it is: reason is, a large percent of the debt is interior debt, meaning that the gouvernment borrowed a lot of money from the united state treasury. The treasury is printing money, and giving them to the government, but still keeps record of this (quote: "it s an accounting trick").

But, it is also true that the excessive printing of American dollar may reduce its value, but once people realizes that the US$ is overestimated, there will be an economic drop, but not as bad as "hunger games" lol.

Also, I'd like to point out the obvious here.
Jeffreysikes was wrong. In every sense of the word.
Communism comes from socialism, but Marx never intended to have socialism be demonized by such an atrocity as communism. Socialism is not a bad thing; it has a very well grasp on the economy, and everyone is usually somewhat happy. However, Lenin though, 'Let's show those Mensheviks how real Russian Socialists conduct business' and thus, the Russian revolution happened.
But anyway, as I was saying, what was likewise with Marx and Lenin is the same for Darwin and Marx. In fact, reports say that Darwin was appalled by such a use of his theory!
Darwinism isn't bad; it's called progress, the kind the world needs, so idiots like him don't get to make everyone feel stupid for having to read his crap.

~$16 trillion debt
~$300 trillion in assets
Grossly oversimplified, but I think we're good here.

Oh DV, how you never disappoint... My country is... Well, crap right now due to bad management in my opinion. What we need to dois find someone who's not in it for the money/fame and wants to run the country the way it should. Think of this person as a modern Andrew Jackson without the Trail Of Tears or racism. If we can't find someone like this, then I guess we'll slowly flounder until we truly are the laughingstock of the world.
