You know NYC is already minority white right?

They could have voted socialist at any point in time. Americans could have had healthcare, 36 hour work week and a pension system.

That is the tragedy of the American empire- instead of improving the lives of its citizens all the money went to tax cuts.

Why do Americans want to break things anyway? The economy was doing fine, unemployment was low. What is the trigger that made half Americans go nuts? There does not seem to be a rational cause unlike 1860.

Disagree. Polarisation existed long before Trump. America was going to face this sooner or later. The culture war was always coming.

Ah but you forget that the economic exploitation of the former colonies was supposed to continue. It is not so much communism that frightened the West as it was nationalism.

"incentive to move manufacturing back to the US"

Only for the internal market. America will never again manufacture steel or cars for the rest of the world. The days of America being the factory of the world (which really only lasted a few decades) are forever gone.

In the Netherlands newspapers have traditionally been funded by subscribers. Running a newspaper is not that expensive- most of the news is after all happening in the third world were a few thousand euro can get you far. Have your journalists fly economy- or worse Southwest lol.

People who cannot afford your product are not your audience, it is okay to be elitist.

You honestly think anyone in the US wants to evaluate just why Americans turning to drugs? Nobody wants to open up that can of worms.

You are right but this requires Americans to stop thinking their country is perfect. Any deep introspection and the whole facade breaks down...

Anyone who does not want to worship Jesus or Trump is welcome to check out the Netherlands.

The US is not the only country that suffers from avian flu- although the inability to get the outbreak under control is alarming.

They invested billions into AI so you can be damn sure they call everything AI.

Exactly. We don't live in a cyberpunk world were corporations run their own universities and have their own private army.

Everything that allows a company to exist- from electricity to roads to law enforcement of patents is funded by taxpayers.

On the ISS astronauts can call their family members but I think there is a 20 minute communication lag between us and Mars?
