Are the glory days of the U.S. over?

[KlatooBNikto]

Right after WWII, this country reigned supreme.Its military power was unchallenged.Its automotive, aircraft and general industry were the envy of the world. That outlook continued until th early 80's when, one by one, the industries became loaded with debt,burdened by egotistical CEOs, and assaulted by more hungry competitors from around the world. The world learned that the trick to dominating any industry is to educate the people and empower them with capital so their ideas can be brought to the marketplace.India, China, Japan, Korea and increasingly Brazil, Argentina, Chile are kicking our ass after learning from our playbook.

We who have taught these countries to value their own people and empower them are going the other way, treating our own people as a burden and destroying the hopes of our children by throwing our money after phony wars waged for the benefit of the rich.

There is an Arab proverb that goes something like this. "If a man has his health, he has hope.When he has hope he has everything" These Republicans have committed the crime of destroying the hopes of millions. And destroyed the one country that was truly the hope of mankind for many years. I cannot forgive them for that crime.
