The truth is the truth

[Silverhair]

Is your country respected in the world?

Quite well actually. Rule of law, stable government etc.

 

[Mikoo]

Not as bad as I see in the US but we have a serious housing and lack of jobs for our youth problem do to the policies that the left leaning Liberals brought in. We are now dealing with another liberal gov. that has a green agenda.

But we will get past that.

So are you doing anything to change that?
How about the moral and social decline in Canada? Doing anything about that?

 

[Mikoo]

Quite well actually. Rule of law, stable government etc.

Of course the extreme liberalism of Canada is respected by other extremely liberal countries. Are you and the rest of Canada thankful that it is the US that keeps you safe in the world? How about the moral and social decline in Canada? No complaints about that?

 

[Charlie24]

Charlie it is not an either or problem. It would be nice if it were but live is not like that.

As a Christian I obviously would not go with the "clown show" on the left but then again I could not agree with all the over the top actions that I see from the right either.

The extremes of left or right will only destroy.

We have enemies in this world fueled by Satan, they want to take our freedoms and will if we sit by and let them.

Trump is gladly willing to take on that enemy, he enjoys it, he was trained his whole life for it, and he does it well.

I thank God that we have Trump at this time in history to show the enemies of our freedoms we will put a boot in your rear if you mess around with what we hold as a right from God.

 

[Silverhair]

And I asked you was Biden not in opposition to all that is right and moral?

From his gov position it was clear that he was in opposition to what is moral.

 

[Silverhair]

So are you doing anything to change that?
How about the moral and social decline in Canada? Doing anything about that?

Yes pushing for a change in government.

Praying.

 

[Mikoo]

Yes pushing for a change in government.

Praying.

So are you taking out the 'plank' in your country's 'eyes' first?

 

[Van]

Nope. Russia has announced them and have used at least 3 different models in Ukraine already. Putin challenged the West to Pick a target and defend it from the orsrink (probably misspelled) . The West could put in whatever batteries it wanted to defend whatever target around Kiev and we could see. The West would not take up the challenge. They have 5 super duper sonics and we have none at the moment. The Russians have better missiles than us.

To prove the US does not have the undeveloped technology to intercept high speed missiles by pointing to the fact the military of Ukraine has no such system deployed, means you are not really trying to present reality.

 

[Silverhair]

Of course the extreme liberalism of Canada is respected by other extremely liberal countries. Are you and the rest of Canada thankful that it is the US that keeps you safe in the world? How about the moral and social decline in Canada? No complaints about that?

You seem quite angry @Mikoo.

Canada has it's problems but we do not try to export them to the rest of the world as the US seems quite willing to do.

The US has a might makes right mentality and seem to think that invading another country is allowed.

I would hope that you can see the problems in your own country and would like to do something about them.

 

[Silverhair]

So are you taking out the 'plank' in your country's 'eyes' first?

You are just rambling now.

You are angry that someone would dare criticize or call into question anything the US does.

Blindly following following is a sure recipe for disaster. Be it on the left or the right.

As I said before, I can see the problems in Canada and am doing what I can to change them.

But the question for you is what are you doing for the US.

 

[Ben1445]

So you think your leader is above criticism?

No. I think your opinion doesn’t matter.

His lack of basic understanding of how tariffs work and who actually pays them is quite shocking.

But you understand tariffs and money and how he is using them. You understand that he is bankrupting the country and our business’. You understand that he is starving the masses.

Could I take out a loan from you to pay for next weeks lunch. From what you say, I will need it.
Which floor of Silverhair Tower will I find you on? Which location?

He cannot seem to understand that invading another sovereign country is wrong.

You don’t seem to understand what was involved. But you can stick with your conspiracy theories, big business, billionaires, and oil.

But I have found that many in the US will defend him even when they do not actually agree with him but just because he is their leader.

You speak of what you know little about.
By comparison, you know little of the US. When you consider how many you know vs the total number of US citizens, it becomes obvious that you inflate the weight of your own observations beyond their value.

But go ahead. You don’t know a thing about me and what my living conditions. You don’t know what I need but you clearly can live my life better than I can.
Please tell me how to breathe now.

I have always been told how arrogant Americans are with their opinions. I don’t see any differences between yours and ours.

 

[Silverhair]

No. I think your opinion doesn’t matter.

Then why do you get so upset by it?

But you understand tariffs and money and how he is using them. You understand that he is bankrupting the country and our business’. You understand that he is starving the masses.

@Ben1445 basic economics says the country imposing the tariff on incoming products is the one that pays that tariff.

Your other comments are just hyperbole or your part.

You don’t seem to understand what was involved. But you can stick with your conspiracy theories, big business, billionaires, and oil.

I think you have me confused with another poster.

You speak of what you know little about.

I speak based on information for numerous sources from both side of the aisle.

I am not blinded by loyalty to one view.

 

[Ben1445]

Then why do you get so upset by it?

You assume that I am upset. I think you are projecting your own feelings onto my post.

@Ben1445 basic economics says the country imposing the tariff on incoming products is the one that pays that tariff.

I’m not arguing basic economics. I am talking about the intended effect of how they are used.
You are blind to it because of your dislike for them. If you were as open minded on the subject as you say, you would be able to understand why they are being used.

Your other comments are just hyperbole or your part.

In other words, too embarrassing to you to answer. You have lots of criticism but how do your accomplishments compare?

I don’t know. But based upon your comments, you don’t come close, do you?

I think you have me confused with another poster.

Nope.
You doubled down on your it’s all about oil conspiracy in post 52.
See screenshot below. I’m not confused. Maybe you are having trouble remembering all of your theories.

I speak based on information for numerous sources from both side of the aisle.

That doesn’t mean that you are accurate. They each have your problem. They are trying to shape opinion. They shaped yours and your are passing on your training as they have taught you.
But your “reality” is a poor picture of where I live and what is real.

I am not blinded by loyalty to one view.

Blinded by several?

But ignoring mine.

Since day two Ukraine has got our newest Patriot System. They used up the world's supply of them. They have to shoot down drones and then they are overwhelmed by numbers. Of the 2 or 3 hyper sonic missiles they have tried they cannot hit.

Also you mentioned Greenland. The US already has radar stations and sub listening stations on Greenland. It's not our land. They would lease us all the bases we want. But China may want a port there. Greenland has the right to lease them a port if they want to. Trump has no right to seize land that's not his. War is not God's will. Trump said he was going to get us out of the always never ending wars. But he never had any real intentions.

I believe you may know the kind of interceptions the Patriot System is designed to make. For you to suggest we do not have other technologies on the drawing table seems far-fetched.

Next, Greenland has an important "geopolitical" location. Mr. Trump says Greenland is vital to our proposed "Golden Dome." He also asserts if we do not take control, then either Russia or China will take it from Denmark. Naysayers assert Mr. Trump really wants Greenland to loot it of oil and rare-earth deposits. A few wack-jobs claim Mr. Trump is simply engaged in a petty ego trip because he did not win the Peace Prize. Those that cannot smell the stench of Marxism behind these claims need a nose job.

 

[Mikoo]

You seem quite angry @Mikoo.

Not at all. You know you should not assume!

Canada has it's problems

Oh, Canada has major moral and social problems.

but we do not try to export them to the rest of the world as the US seems quite willing to do.

LOL. You don't have have to export them. Most of the world has the same moral and social problems.

The US has a might makes right mentality

Canada has no might. Thanks to the US you will always be safe. You are welcome.

and seem to think that invading another country is allowed.

??? You mean like others countries have invaded the US. Canada, Europe by sending millions upon millions of their citizens?

I would hope that you can see the problems in your own country and would like to do something about them.

All countries have problems.

 

[Mikoo]

You are just rambling now.

Truth hurts

You are angry that someone would dare criticize or call into question anything the US does.

LOL. You really like to assume things.

Blindly following following is a sure recipe for disaster. Be it on the left or the right.

Agree.

As I said before, I can see the problems in Canada and am doing what I can to change them.

What would that be?

But the question for you is what are you doing for the US.

I have and continue to serve my country for coming up on 41 years.

Great post. SH is really something isn't he? He has 'plankless' eyes I guess. He throws out judgement with great confidence.

 

[Silverhair]

I can only go by what you have posted Ben.

Actually rather neutral overall. I can see the good and the bad.

Which it seems many Trum* supporters are unable to do.

I’m not arguing basic economics. I am talking about the intended effect of how they are used.
You are blind to it because of your dislike for them. If you were as open minded on the subject as you say, you would be able to understand why they are being used.

To ignore economics is to miss the actual effect no matter what the intended effect may be.

Your tariffs do not really effect me directly and from what I have seen it has caused our gov. to diversify our trading partners.

I have heard what Trum* has said they are for but is that what you see happening. Not from what I have heard.

In other words, too embarrassing to you to answer. You have lots of criticism but how do your accomplishments compare?

I don’t know. But based upon your comments, you don’t come close, do you?

I have done quite well thank you.

Thanks for your concern.

See screenshot below. I’m not confused. Maybe you are having trouble remembering all of your theories.

Well if Trum* did not invade Venezuela why is he making such a big deal about it. Has he done anything to change the gov for the better for the people?

That doesn’t mean that you are accurate. They each have your problem. They are trying to shape opinion. They shaped yours and your are passing on your training as they have taught you.
But your “reality” is a poor picture of where I live and what is real.

That is why I view information from both side of the argument. You should try it.

Blinded by several?

But ignoring mine.

Your view can be blinded to the other side of the argument because you will not look at it.

 

[Silverhair]

Not at all. You know you should not assume!

Just telling it as I see it.

Oh, Canada has major moral and social problems.

Did I say they did not have them?

LOL. You don't have have to export them. Most of the world has the same moral and social problems.

But most of the world does not have the US try to tell their gov what they can or cannot do.

Canada has no might. Thanks to the US you will always be safe. You are welcome.

We do not see the need to try and control others. Only those that are insecure do that.

Ah the arrogance of the US.

??? You mean like others countries have invaded the US. Canada, Europe by sending millions upon millions of their citizens?

The US made the mistake of allowing those millions into their country just as Canada and Europe have done and we are all paying the price for doing so.

All countries have problems.

Yes I agree
