In 2020 we spent $725 billion on our national defense. It climbs about 9% a year. I don't think any country spends more.

It's my country and I love it, but I'm not oblivious to how fucked up it is and what a fricken joke we've become internationally in the last 5 years.

It’s funny, right? As world citizens (which I know Americans disregard, mostly due to your pride, but also your peril) we all thought you were fucked when you employed dubbya…but then you kinda reset the course with Obama, and that’s where the divide started. I mean nobody wanted to say it, but in your own words, you took the nigger from the wood pile and put him in the Whitehouse. After that, it just made the whole spiral into trump more realistic. And here we are today where the divide ‘in the greatest country on earth (fucking haha)’, has never been bigger

Even maggot doesn’t really believe it anymore….ayup

We'd fuck China up. Not Russia though.

You ever hear of a Chinese fire drill?

this country has the largest military force by far. 350 million citizens and 400 million weapons; that is why they want to destroy the constitution. there are 2 million soldiers on active duty, about a million in reserves, and 18 million veterans; 12 million of service age. come and get us booger eaters.

How much you spend means nothing if you're not spending it intelligently. The F-35 debacle is the most recent example of the corruption that is endemic to government contracting in general, "defense" contracting in particular, where it's the worst.

Countries have enough firepower to kill every living thing on this pre-Mars planet, no need for a puny air bourne virus.

I have a friend who has done a complete 180 and now wants to move to Texas. WTF.

That's mental. COVID wonderland with all the political COVIDIOTS. The IVF is not about about, it's about disempowerment of women.

listen Shelia, those are facts easily verified if you weren't a progressive piece of shit hell bent on inflicting your idiocy on a country you know nothing about.

Got it now, this a troll.

Look at this library. *swoons* It's at Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. It's the most beautiful library I've ever seen.

When's the last time you were in a library?

Before covid all the time.

I like libraries too and book stores as well. Like you, I haven't been to either one since before Covid. My library does have curb service tho, one can request whatever they want through their online catalog, they've made it convenient.

I like to dog ear the corners so I used to buy from the donation store at the library, but this is a great site- https://www.thriftbooks.com/

I used to go to our local library with my daughter, but they're tearing it down now. I guess the bastards don't think out little town needs one.

I will probably go to the library tomorrow to print off my resume.

During covid it sucked not having access to a printer and I refused to purchase one.
