    Oh yes, look at the falling birth rates in countries with prosperity... Then compare that with other places in the world...
    then don't forget that in other parts of the world many die as babies or children and yet there are constant or rising rates.

    I'm not saying that educated people are dying out or that education is dying out. However, there will always be more stupid people. Especially as the prosperity of the educated is built on the stupid.

      Can I steal this? Or is this from somewhere else?

        I haven't copied it from anywhere else, but it's a pretty general statement anyway.

          "Keep 'em guessing". You have to understand Trump is not a statesman. It's that simple. He views everything as a one-to-one personal power dynamic in the context of some silly real estate deal about which restaurant supplier to choose for the crispy tortilla shells.

          I don't think he understands the ramifications beyond a contract he won't respect or some clever insult he can hurl.

          He's a trust-fund nitwit cosplaying as an entrepreneur, who has been parachuted into the Presidency.

            Nope I don’t support Putin at all. I’m glad I stopped thinking like you.

              Mike Lee is a notoriously despicable person even by GOP standards and the bill doesn't have any legs. Like, just a week ago he said terrible things about the Minnasotan politicians who were shot dead in their homes, and he's also the one who was pushing to sell off public lands (which he was bullied out of; also seems to be in the pocket of the Mormon cult).

              The US stance on NATO is complicated under the current US regime but I doubt it'll be by this assholes bill.

              Try the US stance on China, ever heard of "strategic ambiguity"?

              https://www.usni.org/magazines/proceedings/2023/march/strategic-ambiguity-taiwan-has-run-its-course

              It basically means as long as the US interests align with getting cheap labor and items from China, it's the best, until it isn't.

              What a beacon of the international rules-based-order. No wonder the world looks up to American Values strategic bombers...

                  I doubt that you think much at all. Just take the rubles, and peddle the crap from the white board in the data centre in St Petersburg.....

                    As predicted years ago.

                    Trump is Putin's ally, not NATO's.

                    This was forseen by some YEARS ago..

                    As I've said before, they're committed to destroying all the "woke" countries in a pincer between Putin & Trump,

                    & that's why Greenland is required, so the US can do to Canada what Russia's been doing to Ukraine, & once Canada's destroyed, then the hated-by-them-both EU can be destroyed.

                    It's a strategy, & it will succeed unless the TrueNATO countries SMARTEN UP SHARPLY, QUICKLY, which looks to not be going to happen..

                    Whatever.

                    There are other worlds in endless-stream-of-universes: our continuums/souls will just do it again, on another world, after obliterating this "Garden of Eden" world, right?

                    whatever.

                    Watching humankind "prevent" snuffing-of-humankind is like watching a junkie's life be obliterated by whatever junk they're addicted-to.

                    Inevitable, depressing, pointless..

                    Oh, sure, it's possible that the addict in question might somehow change & fight-for-their-life against their unconscious-mind's obliteration-addiction, but is it likely?

                    not.

                      Putin has and still is committing cruel, evil, disgusting atrocities against humanity why would I support that. Listen to yourself you sound silly. Its possible to be against the West while also being against Putin, you just have to evolve your thinking.
