You missed one, sheeprunner12.
Engage in retraining all politicians; to be honest, educated, and to truly understand what a "public servant" means.

What treaty or agreement has the US NOT broken? In history.
Did you miss the reasons why the world had a "financial crisis" in 2008?
Hint. It was the unethical, legalized corruption and greed of the banks in the US. Aren't we close enough to these criminals without.........................

It is even worse than this, mudda.
Much worse. I think the problem is the contracts were too large. The MPs and others saw a cash cow with few strings attached. Not only that, they didn't even look out for those they were elected to represent. The fire wasn't an accident. Yet, we still must become much more food independent. We need to incentivize farmers, not political criminals.

You are right. We have had the opportunity to become self sufficient, educated and wise. Divide and conquer, both PLP and FNM has led us to where we are now.

Good suggestions. Hopefully, this is what the government wants. More input for the benefit of our country. And, they will consider these and act accordingly.

Patience usually gets easier with age.

At some point the US will collapse financially, due to the over-leveraging and the evident sociopathy of the financial institutions CEOs, the US regulatory non action and the existential fascism now taking over.that country. The US spends well over a trillion dollars annually on its military. Do you really understand and have a grasp of what a trillion dollars is? Type it into Google. "What does a trillion dollars look like?" Th, the US, like all fallen empires before it, will collapse because it spent too much of its treasure and wealth on war making. Along with hubris, exceptionalism, fascism, Trump represents the very worst of that once relevant nation. Yet, he is just the indefensible clown that many could see coming. A vile, lying and mentally unstable human being, the true tragedy is that more than a handful of people have voted for him. This is the lowest the US has ever been, though the trajectory has been rather steady and Trump is not an outlier in this regard. The US should be rejected for the very same objections you have against China. The US people have many good ones among them. The government of any country, not so much.

Good points. Thanks.

How right you are.

The difference being that a country is a figment of our imaginations. Just like an economy, or a religion. We seem unable to see life, as in ourselves and in the nurturing world around us, in it's eminent whole. It seems as if we have come to believe that we are greater than these forces. Is our made up well-being synonymous with the well-being of life? Not at all. Even in these times, we still seem unable to grasp our fragility. We still celebrate our individual wealth, as opposed to the wealth of our nation. We, here and abroad, are untutored, except in making money for ourselves. True leaders are nowhere to be found. Why? We continue to choose psychopaths as our representatives. True leaders, who have the goodwill of all as their agenda, cannot get a word in edgewise for the vast majority of the TV watching human populace. We are no different here.
