Do you mean the shortage of baby formula or are you referring to the empty shelves/bidenflation more broadly

Last I heard, they had not found this person and CPD is no longer pursuing because no one was shot.

No joke, in Chicago, if you want to file a police report someone needs to be shot. If you want detectives to actually look into it and catch someone (30% homicide closure rate) someone needs to be killed.

It's literally a joke at this point.

Am seriously researching dual citizenship in New Zealand. They've got a hiring program for the next 10 years, they're looking for STEM graduates to help build their tech/healthcare sectors, and my expertise match what they're looking for. It'd be a cool change of pace, and if chit seriously hit the fan here, i'd have an alternative place to live. So, its a win win for me.

America is still far and away the greatest nation on earth.

As compared to what?

Australia? The banana republic

-Entire economy is built on selling raw resources, houses and citizenship via fake uni degrees
-Politicians constantly get replaced mid term without elections
-Run by left wing warlords (state premiers) who divided up the country over a flu

Honestly, kinda. But not in the way you think.

We're not becoming some African despot country.

But the middle class is disappearing and there is a culture war between facets of economic success.

I'm a finance brah and I remember when I was in college, barely 10 years ago, people like Buffet, Gates, Bezos, and Slim fought for worlds richest man. They all tended to flux between 40-60B... which is crazy money. Barely 10 years later, that's nothing. What Musk and Bezos have is wildly insane. It's more than quadruple.

But it's not just the super billionaires.
The regular billionaires have gotten much richer.
The super millionaires have gotten much richer.

Etc.... etc.....

But pay of the standard worker (from the factory worker to to the accountant to the doctor) has largely remained stagnant.
And in the meantime, housing is up 30% (corrected for bubble), food is up, gas is up, everything is up.

So yes, in many ways the US is creating subservient country. But not a 3rd world country. We have food stamps and free health care for the poor. We're creating a country where a middle.class doesn't exist.

You're rich or you're poor.

Some small differing levels, but what made the USA great was the MIDDLE CLASS DREAM. It was the fabric of society as we know it.

What the US is becoming and will soon be?
Look at
- Brazil
- Russia
Etc.

Very soon to be Canada.

I'm US - But Our fellow brahs in most parts of Canada can't make over 100k. Their partners do too. Over 200k family income can't afford a shack in any of the major cities.

The Boomers tell them to move to cheaper areas, bit at the same time demand everyone return to the office where a 1bd 1bth apartment rents for 3k.

And we're seeing it happen here in the US... just more slowly.

Is is good ifyoura professional with marketable skills. You need these skills to acquire work permits gojirra.

You would be a 3rd world Mexican if you had moved there instead of australia from north Macedonia or whatever **** Yugoslav country you came from.

Nz is generally regarded as terrible place to work, good for retirement.

Cost of living there is even hgher than Australia with lower average wages.

Lol why?

take out hyperinflation from OP's list and it's legit. as far as crime.. can only think of LA and Chicago.

Chicago, there was a news crew filming and a jogger skipped in view of their camera and pretended to fire his gun at the crew while he stared at the camera, and this was in the nicest part of downtown. dude just walked off carrying his gun at his side. and the mayor/leaders say that crime is under control and going down. if THAT is normal, that's pretty much third world



imagine how much confidence these thugs have to have to literally be on camera and do this lmao

I keep hearing on some of the podcasts I listen to, mention of billionaires like bezos and bloomberg keep talking about the world being over populated. Maybe it is plausible that the theory of a plan to destabilize the country and food supply, with the end goal to limit and even reduce the population is fact.

A lot of people believe this was the goal of Covid but it didn't work out as intended.

Gates is already saying there will be another pandemic within 10 years that's much more deadly.

Come to serbia we dont have lgbt stuff around here
