Please....on so many levels....

You defined an otherwise beautiful post with this;
The US is today in the position that Europe was when it was starting up...

So, Answer this;

When did Europe start up?

Please be specific, because it is an impossible question to answer....

Do you think we do not understand the hubris of socialism, at our core we know the difference, despite the momentum of this present...There are many levels of hierarchies, some understood some not...

your veiled threat of us facing some music in some not too distant future, betrays your very substance....envy.

While we wait, some of the very base lines are being worked out that will change the world and all your assumptions about your market share in a commodity will become worthless.

You should take your message to brazil and suggest to brazillians, that the malfeasance of thier own oligarchy, is the root of thier poverty..of spirit and invention....we both know PBR cant do the presalt on its own, and it may very well be complicit in instigating the fleece of partner shareholders....whose model is that? Whose goals are behind the curtain pulling even your strings and shaping your positions?

originality is not the touchstone for most living on this planet, as you well know, the psychology of herding requires sensory organs...ro/rs=cf.....is the arbiter of social system output, no well crafted propaganda, escapes its reach.

an open invitation to the 10 bought and paid fors who recommended this post....put your brain to the task of proving that what you inherit through subversion, included any justice and freedom for anyone but your own self interest. the record is clear; take your victories and show what you've actually done with them. Examine the effects of your cause, determine for yourselves if you've done anything but to diminish those you claim to have an interest in.....mostly your ideas are superficial garbage, designed to make you feel happy about being on the side of some momentum. sharing your elitist views with others just like you. Prove it that there is any meaning from your ideas effects, within recorded.....history.

Canada entered WW1 years before the U.S.

"Canadians were not only considered expert and professional soldiers, they were feared by the Germans as an omen of impending attack.

  • 619,636 men and women served - 400,000 overseas
  • 66,655 died
  • 172,950 were wounded
In 1914 Canada entered the war as a colony, a mere extension of Britain overseas; in 1918 she was forging visibly ahead to nationhood. Canada began the war with one division of citizen soldiers under the command of a British general, and ended with a superb fighting force under the command of one of her own sons.

For a nation of eight million people Canada's war effort was remarkable. A total of 619,636 men and women served in the Canadian forces in the First World War, and of these 66,655 gave their lives and another 172,950 were wounded. Nearly one of every ten Canadians who fought in the war did not return.

It was this Canadian war record that won for Canada a separate signature on the Peace Treaty signifying that national status had been achieved. Nationhood was purchased for Canada by the gallant men who stood fast at Ypres, stormed Regina Trench, climbed the heights of Vimy Ridge, captured Passchendaele, and entered Mons on November 11, 1918."

Then long after everything that substantiated your position is gone, you still think, act like you were still holding that leadership . But looking carefully the only thing that remains are the after effects of the US creation: the self confidence, loudness and arrogance.


Elmat, the only thing wrong with America is government. The great corporations and innovators of the world are still American. When that changes - let me know - until then - the above is poop.
