    Soon everything will change. :roflol::roflol::roflol:For example, whites in the US are already a minority.

    It's his choice. Maybe he does not have money for a hobby.

    Nope, its business as usual here. Living in a free society we have experienced divided government many times in the past. The divide over Vietnam was sharper than the street theater displays from mindless youths and half hearted criticism from disheartened leftists in Congress we are seeing today.

    This is not racism. This is a statement of fact. The accusation of racism is a manifestation of hypocrisy.

    No it's racism as you know, your spin doesn't change you're a racist.

    You've shown your true colours why not embrace your racism?

    Everything changes. For example, most recently by historical standards, the United States was the most influential in the world, and China was on the margins of world politics.
    Today. The Japanese news agency Kyodo News published an internal document of the Central Army Commission of the PRC with a clearly outlined strategy for fighting the US.
    In the not too distant future, we are faced with a radical increase in the risks of a military clash between the United States and China. The fact is that the Beijing strategists are going to not just defend the PRC, but intend to challenge the American domination in the sea, which allows them, if necessary, to "choke" opponents by controlling the sea trade routes.
    It is difficult and almost impossible to imagine that the American leadership (regardless of party affiliation and ideological orientation) will allow Beijing to implement such a plan without fierce resistance from the whole power of the American state apparatus and army.
    In other words, China is seriously preparing for a war with the United States. And at the same time he is not going to defend himself only, but he intends to attack. And if he thinks it's a good time, attack first. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2...shore-expansion-communist-party-document-says
    Economically, China will soon become independent of US markets. By the way, 10 years ago they began to focus on the development of the domestic market. And that was the right strategy.

    But the most important indicator, following from this information - no one is afraid of the United States anymore. And this is the beginning of the collapse of the American model of the development of society. This was not the case during the Vietnam events.

    I do not know. But maybe they want to leave the US without cocaine? However, Trump introduced additional import duties from Mexico. So there is something in the Mexicans.

    I do not care about tolerant idiots in the US, the EU or any other country. If in the United States the number of whites is reduced, soon the US will turn into a wild country. And this is a fact. Look at South Africa. Or on the EU, where hordes of savages turn developed countries transform into Papua new Guinea.
    Therefore, I wish you good luck in mastering cannibalism.

    As Nixon said - "show me at least one successful country run by a Negro"

    Good you admit you are a racist then! After you just denied it as well and then confirmed it.

    You'd make a good Democratic candidate with that philosophy lol

    The employer-boss us always the villain in their play.
    He owned five trucks and employed four other drivers and could have retired nicely while the money poured in from his other trucks

    Just about every county I've had contact with up and down the east coast, freeze property taxes for 'seniors'. Some utilities also offer discounted rates for the elderly/handicapped.

    I know an 88 year old lady who mows 20 yards per week in the Texas heat because she likes to work and make spending money. My brother used to work with her when she was in her upper 70s doing 40 yards per week in the Summers.

    She must be a tough woman. I applaud her. I couldn't mow one lawn in the Texas summer heat.

    The USA lost in Vietnam and had the stupidest political and military leadership it ever has had. I say the decline of the USA began with the assassination of JFK, and then the idiot LBJ getting the US deep in the quagmire of Vietnam with no intention to win.

    If you love what you do for a living you'll not only almost certainly excel at it and make a lot of money but you'll also never really work a day in your life. So choose well

    However, if those octogenarians are working because they HAVE to that is very bad, and a sign of the real breakdown of society. People are not going to put up with choice 2 in Post 1 above

    There is a television commercial about this that is on right now.

    Yep, if you love what you do, you can do it as long as your body lets you. That’s why I think I won’t stop working in finance/accounting till Alzheimer's rots my brain, and after that I’ll be a Walmart greeter (look up Dick Cheney Walmart greeter in Family Guy). :)
