Well you sound like someone who’s completely out of touch with reality so I figured your must literally be in the most dire of straits, suffering more than the rest of humanity because milk costs a buck more than it did in the 2000’s

Humanity is hurting worldwide, there is a major war taking place in two areas of the globe following a global pandemic. Seas are going to be choppy for a bit. But you have it better than everyone else. The situation is literally the best it can be right now.
And make the most of it, you have a tremendous advantage. A historic low unemployment rate, highest wage growth and demand for blue collar workers ever. If you’re not in a great situation, remember you’re a free agent always and the market has never been hotter for you.

Not at all, but you do have to move on to move up often. We’re not Boomers, we don’t get to stay put at a single job for 40 years. There has never been unemployment and wages have been higher for blue collar workers, with growth outpacing inflation much moreso than white collar jobs. Your labor has never been in more demand so get yourself your just dues because you can and should (and DESERVE to) be earning more than minimum wages.
You have more opportunities here than elsewhere. Seek them out.
And I pointed out that wages actually did go up, moreso than any other country on the planet. Then pointed out that inflation has been the lowest of any country as well! And cited it! Yet that is not good enough. No one has had it easier than Americans following the pandemic.
Your feelings are not matching up with reality. Your situation might suck, idk but the overall situation is comparatively better than everywhere else.
Isn’t that the point I was making?
As compared to what? The inflationary rates of the rest of the world? Because things cost more everywhere and comparatively the US weathered that better than about anywhere else. Real Wages have also have increased a lot to compensate in comparison as well. US is smoking other countries in this regard. People ARE dumb because they lack the critical thinking skills to actually look what’s going on.
The Inflation rate is lower than most other countries AND real wages have risen much more in America compared to peer countries as well. Each one of them would trade their numbers with the US in a heartbeat.
Feelings aren’t facts, turns facts are facts. And the fact is when measuring real numbers Biden has absolutely crushed it.

As an American it’s equally annoying how people cannot fucking see what a great job Biden has done overall. Land of the Free, Home of the Dumb
Sweet jesus, talk about reading a headline and not the whole srticle. Go back and see what they were supplying and in what quantities to each side.
Never skimp on Cybersecurity, you’re gonna pay for it one way or another!
You don’t need surveillance, if anything that just opens up an avenue for espionage. What you need is AUDITS. Audits fucking suck but they keep everyone accountable. You back up your auditors with strong penalties and clear guidelines and you’re good.
No spending should occur without an auditing plan on how to ensure you’re getting what you paid for.
Probably the only way you can telegraph “never wanted anything to do with this” to the West.
I think instability of the world at the current moment is being acknowledged by military brass throughout NATO as having the potential volatility to see current regional conflicts expand considerably. Middle East, Taiwan, NK (unlikely but a bit of a crapshoot always), Ukraine, etc. Throw in the wild card that is Trump and his rhetoric surrounding NATO and Europe combined with his embrace of Putin and Russia/dictorial aims in the US and you’ve got several things that would have you worried presently. His job is to make sure the UK is ready to address any situations that arise I think statement is more publicly acknowledging that troubled waters COULD be on the horizon.
They are, they just wasted a lot of time with Hydrogen tech instead building up their EV capabilities
Didn’t the Japanese car industry only just finally jump in the EV game?
Who would you have preferred instead of the major powers?
Meh the US at the helm typically keeps everyone else chilled the fuck out so I would say net-net they’re good.
