Those 4 countries that see the world as getting better, are all countries that the US Corporations have outsourced the majority of our factory and industrial jobs to. The reason why they are optimistic, is that their currency is getting a boost from US Dollars, spent by US Consumers.

It’s a global welfare Ponzi scheme. Eventually the frauds in Washington, and the big bankers are going to find that you can’t keep ripping off the American People to the tune of trillions with deflated wages and a higher cost of living. I was offered a managerial job at a local auto parts chain today, and the starting salary was 70K a year. My first thought was it sounds great, but I am not getting vaccinated, I am not getting tested, and I certainly won’t do either for a job that does not change my life profoundly.

I'm wondering if the "elites" aren't trying to slouch their way into a nuclear war thinking they can win. We got motherfucking close during Able Archer '83 exercise in hindsight.

These fuckers think men can get pregnant, nuclear war is good?

That's not bad money, I couldn't spend it that fast. When I was sleeping with my stock broker, Becky, she use to tell me that if I died with a $100 in my pocket, I worked an hour too long. Granted, $100 ain't shit, but around the turn of the century, that would've kept me knee-deep in good whiskey for a couple weeks.

Once again ZH displays its dazzling numerical and logical idiocy.

"More dangerous" and "more things are getting better in the world than are getting worse" are not opposites, or even mutually exclusive. If the 28 countries (around the globe) from which the responses came represent the universe, and 82% of the respondents felt that the world became more dangerous in the last year, then I'd say that sentiment is pretty universal. Naturally, ZH doesn't tell us what percentage of respondents in China, India, Saudi Arabia, and Malaysia felt that the world became more dangerous in the last year.

Right on. Good for you.

I'll be in my casket before they shoot me up.

That's why we keep you around you horrible white supremacist, racist.

BTW, even if I and my wife, a staunch antivariegationist, wanted to adopt a couple of pickaninnies to atone for our unalloyed alabastrinity, we wouldn't be able to -- because we live in a highly Baptist region and they've all already been snatched up.

"What do you do? Sleep with that thesaurus on your pillow?"

"I would if I slept."

No, I do not sleep with a dinosaur.

No, I do not sleep with a dinosaur.

I kinda do. My neighbor, Rudy, about 500' from me turned up with a fiberglass Sinclair gas station (brontosaur?) whatever that thing was. Eight foot tall, maybe eighteen, twenty foot long. One of the few times I was jealous in my life.

He had a boonie hat on it all summer, but it was gone this morning. I wanted to put a scarf on its neck, but it'd have to be about twenty feet long.
