Does that sound like Manifest Destiny?

Because many people are completely unaware of what is happening outside of a rise in prices. They're aware of the war, but not of what is happening domestically. They are too busy working and taking care of the kids to keep up with politics.

The guard never appears to patrol what may be considered the higher crime areas of the city. I've seen them in the subway, the mall, and other popular tourist and city gathering areas. Are they afraid to to do real peace making work?

The same is true of the Kennedy Center. Once trump stacked the board and appointed himself as chairman, many acts cancelled and people refused to attend. Any financial crisis of the center is of trump's own doing.

I think the rapture happened years ago we're living in the thousand years of chaos some translations predict. Look at all the wars of the past 600 years, religious and otherwise.

At a tourist site in Oslo, when the line for the women's room gets too long, they just go use the stalls in the men's room. No one complains.

I never understood the depletion allowance. You acquire a limited asset, and the government gives you a tax break because you used it?

If Americans are serious about the debt, then we should return to the tax rates and spending levels from the Clinton balanced budget. Or even the Nixon budget that was reported to be balanced.
