None of these ridiculous things would have happened, If I was the leader of this country, and people listened. Starting in 1970, I was trying to spread the word, warning everybody I came in contact with, at every bar b q, party family get together etc.
The “message” was, don’t buy anything foreign made, don’t go on foreign vacations etc. All those US dollars given to foreign people in foreign countries, will come back here, and hit us in the face. Like they can afford to buy the house next door, but your son can’t afford to buy it. Unless he’s a Suffolk County cop. 🙂
Unfortunately I was first but I couldn’t get on TV, but George Carlin did, and was on TV warning us. Then Ross Perot was on TV warning us. (The Great Sucking Sound) Even Trump was warning us in the late 1980s, also on TV. Nothing was done, nothing happened, it was too late already during the 1990s, lots of damage was already done to the US people and US economy.
Evidently, “they” whoever they are, weren’t finished gang banging us, feeding off the USA like we were a big fat global carcass, fair game, until the crash in 2008. Now they all know they went too far, and the goose that was laying golden eggs for their consumption, is sick, anemic and has corvid 19 flu germs in the air we breathe. The USA is saying “We can’t breathe without a mask. “V” shaped recovery? “U” shaped recovery? How about a “limping dick” shaped recovery?
