You are right but don't forget the too many benefits the government currently gives to lazy assholes who don't wanna work like every other person.

Right now, there are more money in the hands of non working Americans than in the hands of working ones.

Don't also forget the high tax rate for the rich. When you tax the rich, they move the responsibility to the poor which is why prices of goods are rising.

Business owners will naturally create fake scarcity to increase the prices of their goods and recover the high taxes government imposed on them but Biden believes he is helping the poor not knowing he is killing them the more.

More money in the hands of non-working Americans Where are you guys getting those info from?

The Covid support stopped already, and it really uplifted many families from becoming homeless and hungry.

Many states still have their rental support money that nobody’s is applying for anymore. I still don’t know where you got the narrative that there’s too much money in the hands of non-working people.

The inflation is a result of many things; first the lock down affected supply chain, the great resignation affected a lot of sector, then the OPEC reducing its supply. 99% of machine and tools, including means of transportation requires some sort of petroleum product.
Shortage of petroleum products triple its effect on ordinary cost of things too.

You’re a clown indeed. How comes nobody’s talking about the economy’s recovery record breaking ? The job market? The unemployment?

You’re quick to pick what makes you feel better only …

Babylon the Great has Fallen in the Spiritual realm. The Physical is just a matter of time

You keep wishing for the downfall of America, question is what do you stand to gain when it does??
If it falls then what? China cannot fit in the Americas shoe, no country can dare fit in it.

Be careful what you wish for though … and pray for Nigeria to rise. That’s important too.

And America is not Babylon or Rome or whatever.

JeffreyJunior:
Hehehe, you really saw through their iberibeism.

[b][/b]Whenever someone raises hand and says "I'll slap you now", just go back to sleep because he ain't gonna do nothing.

China will be in for a big surprise if and most unfortunately when the village people that are currently beating the drums they are dancing to succeed.

When it starts to go down, those who think Biden is weak will understand that he is merely a figurehead who serves and believes in something greater than him.

The figure head part you nailed it!

That’s what majority of folks don’t seem to understand here.

America comes first irrespective of what political party that’s in power, the military remains the same, pentagon remains the same under any president.

JeffreyJunior:
The country you listed were and still are breeding grounds for international terrorism (which affects US interests) but North Korea isn't.

US don't just invade a country without a trigger. Other reasons beside a trigger is secondary.

Yeah right, like the trigger for Iraq; weapon of mass destruction.

War = money to your economy.

If you still don’t get it, forget about it.

Bakarehabib02:
But did you believe that NK can nuke some of US cities if they want because there missiles can reach 13,000km which means there missiles can reach anywhere in the US

Oga calm down. It’s one thing to have capabilities it’s another thing to effectively execute your plans with your capabilities. War don’t work like that.

Because You have a gun doesn’t mean you can aim and shoot someone effectively.

Get it ? If you don’t get it forget about it.
Capabilities does not equals to effectiveness.

I’m done explaining to you.

Russia economy has been on Sanction since 2014 yet they are getting stronger everyday
Russia now export more Agricultural food then she imported
Russia economy already moved away from western countries since post 2014
Asia is the main thing now
India and China need market

Like I said before, Russia economy has been great like never before even during the mild sanctions.

You need to understand that a country cannot flourish on its own. Russia don’t need only China to make its economy better, that would leave them dependent on China.

Russias economy is also being boosted by its EU market for its gas, NordStream 2 comes to mind, that was being build your increase the current flow of gas.

If EU decided to join America to decisively deal with Russian economy it can, and this will blow up Russia from the inside. So let’s not even go there. No country can be great alone, and China is nobody’s friend economically. China would control your means of production if you allow it to, Russia isn’t dumb as African leaders to rely solely on China for their survival.

I come in peace.

Bakarehabib02:
That mean USA is also afraid of North Korea because they might nuke there major cities if they invade it .
IMO I will be happy if the people of North Korea are free and know what democracy feels like and know how beautiful the world is outside there country

No the US isn’t afraid of NK nuking it’s major cities, the US have bases across the continent that count intercept that. What the NK would Nuke is all US bases in Asia and the pacific including its Allie’s.. SK, Japan especially.

So a war with a nuclear armed nation is not only about yourself, it’s more of the escalating effect of it. Cos for every action where will be a reaction. Imagine NK tried to nuke a US city, US manage to intercept over Atlantic or pacific … then US returning its own favor, a nuked Nk will affect SK, China and probably Russia too.

Same reason US is not willing to invade Iran militarily, in Irans case it’s not cos of Nuclear but the escalating effect of it on the Middle East.

dannypaul:
If you follow international news well, you will notice that trump had Putin in his pocket. And not until he left before this issue began escalating further.

Btw pls and pls and mention "Buhari" in this conversation.

You miss the point…it was the other way round.. Putin had Trump in his pocket.

Trump was at some point defending the Russians and that’s at the expense of undermining the US intelligence community.

My friend, I think you’re the one who should follow the news. Even local radios in the US invited many intelligence community stakeholders to question why the US President is always defending the Russians and always acting against his own countries intelligence briefings lol

And I mentioned Buhari cos you haven’t been updated about what’s happening locally.

lordm:
There won't be any war, don't decieve yourself

That’s my opinion too.

It’s a drill on the Russian side. As long as Ukraine don’t get provoked and attack first.

goodconsience77:
The bully nation called Russian think that everything is all about displaying weaponry not knowing without good and sound economy it will be difficult for them to win.

Yes this is outright bullying, Russia won’t attack first but they are trying to provoke a first attack.

Economy ? Russian economy has been at its greatest for the past 5-10years. But with the sanctions waiting for them from the Western Allie’s, I’m sure this will bring them 2 step backward.

donestk:
Warning without military confrontation should Russia invade Ukraine.

This is just saving face.

The US cannot get involved militarily, it’s not American fight.

US, China, Uk, Russia and France don’t just wake up and confront each other.

That’s the best US can do right now, sanctions.

dannypaul:
When trump was president, nations avoided US wahala. Trump was the first US presidents to enter North Korea and shook hands with their leader.

Biden is simply a leaf.

If US try nonsense now, China will easily join Alliance with Russia and finish up once God's own nation.

Trump was good for real AMERICANS.

You follow him enter North Korean soil ?
What would Trump do if Russia decided to attack??
Was Trump not there while Dombass and Crimea issue was on going ??

Find solution to naija problem not America.
Buhari you all voted is better for naija too abi ?

Bakarehabib02:
Why can’t USA invade North Korea ?? When they have invaded countries like Libya, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and they accused their leaders of dictatorship so why can’t they do anything about North Korea?

There is not reason to.
Libya, Syria, Iraq were attacked mostly to remove their leaders. The North can’t be infiltrated, the people worship their leader.

A big plus; they have NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

rexwalters:
Yesterday’s selfish followers, that have turned into today’s selfish leaders? You are all the same, chop, destroy, clean mouth & blame someone else?

Young shall grow, even small bit Bola Ahmed Tinubu of SDP in the 1990’s, is now a Kingmaker today.

Maybe you meant to tag yourself as one of the selfish followers.

Why do we always need collaborations to solve an in-house problem that was caused by our selfish leaders.

seunny4lif:
Russia will not attack Ukraine if Ukraine don’t attack the Russia speakers in East Ukraine.
If Ukraine try nonsense the Georgia tried in 2008 then Ukraine will suffer same fate Georgia got and there nothing USA or NATO can do about it.

NATO member without USA is powerless.
Italy, Germany and France will not fight the Russians because they are thinking of increasing their population not decrease it.
Italia will protect massive against war

You nailed it!

Nobody’s attacking anybody, unless Ukraine attacks first, they will avoid since they already know the consequence.

Not just Italy, the whole of Western Europe is not looking for any war on their doorstep, and not even with Russia who’s their major gas supplier.

OLAADEGBU:
Who holds political power?

If you control the economy, you control the political direction irrespective of who’s the head of government.

There’s a reason why lobbyists are so powerful in America and all other countries, irrespective of who’s in power. He who controls the means of production is in charge.

Your home is burning and you are putting the fire out in a house several thousands of miles away. Charity begins at home. Your priorities in life is fvcked up.

This is the double standard I’m talking about. You can’t fix your home but typing crap about another country.

orisa37:
Sorry my dear America can never have a DICTATOR. What you are experiencing now are just skirmishes that are being removed by Trump to fine-tune the Systems. If Obama didn't destroy America in 8 years and Trump hasn't done it in 4, no DICTATOR can rare his ugly head in America.

As for NIGERIA, OLODUMARE WILL SOLVE NIGERIA'S PROBLEM IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF ODUDUWA ASE.

Look at the Hypocrisy

You know perfectly that trump was fine tuning the system … but you still don’t know how to fine tune Nigerias problem… and now pushing it to God

I’m done with you folks sitting behind the keyboard and typing out your imaginations

Omoluabi16:
Niggz you ain't gonna do shit. Get in line, and follow the law. Trump has got it in his kitty now.. you lots are being played and you don't know it.
#David dorn.
#David Underwood.

You sit there wherever you’re behind your keyboard to type that shi.t

Y’all can’t even handle Buhari or corrupt State govt,,, but you know perfectly how citizens of another country are being played… you don’t know about your playing in your country.

This mumuness must stop on nairaland.

OLAADEGBU:
What happened to countries such as Nigeria and South Africa when blacks took over the reins of power from the whites?

You’re wrong, whites have always and will always been in charge of the economy of South Africa.

Lets assume Blacks out run and take over all aspect of the country, from the wall street, the white house, Congress and all virtually all aspect of Economical and Political aspect of the country, What will the country look like after 10,15 or even 20 years.

Do they have the technical knowledge to uphold the millitary, economical and political might of the US. Will it end up like Haiti, Jamaica and other failed states? Can they even built or add to what the white has already developed?
I DONT THINK SO, even my trying to be positive is being judged by my logical conscience.
What is your opinion on the above subject

This inferiority complex is so sickening!

First, America is America irrespective of who’s in charge, they all always follow same scripts just apply different approach.

Technical know-how and all that nonsense, you keep forgetting that America wasn’t built by one single race. America the way it is today is the power of diversity.

White, black, Latinos, natives, Chinese, Indian all combine their best to build this country.

I rest my case.

Keep up with your drugs, you will be alright shogbo

Arkmanbuddy:
Save your regrets for later. When Trump was in power, y'all were ranting and peeing your pants, insulting him at every opportunity you had. Now, here's your savior, Sleepy-Joe, and he's proven to be worse than even Obama! He keeps making the wrong decisions like someone under a spell.

Let him continue with his stupidity, it's just for a little while. Trump is coming back!

Are you going to vote for him ? Just asking respectfully

seunny4lif:
So, is the Roman Empire and British Empire
Those that were alive then when those empire were ruling believed no one can stop them
British and Roman Empires were more stronger than the USA

Like I said, we shall see.

China is the only power that can try to rule but unfortunately they NEVER fit in Americas capacity PERIOD.

seunny4lif:
America Empire will be destroy from within than outside.
These empire were not destroyed from outside but within because of massive military budget to keep up it forces and neglecting the basic at home.
Sending massive forces oversea is very expensive
Roman Empire
Russia Empire
British Empire
Greek Empire
German-Hungry Empire
Mongol empire

We shall see!

American forefather learnt from mistake of past empires when building their country. The idea of breaking from within doesn’t hold shi.t for me … only way American influence will be weakened is only by economy. Americas foundation is STRONG! The structure is SOLID! Patriotism is STRONG! Forget about the democrats and republicans shi.t, they are all working towards the great American empire.

Ever8090:
what about we South south?

And South too if they choose to have their own region. The goal is for all region to manage its resources.

NwaAmaikpe:



It will be only foolish of Emmanuel Macron to return those artworks and also a gross violation of the French law that prohibits the government from returning State property.

Where will they even be kept?

In the Oba's palace I guess; where one of his wives can break them a fit of rage or where one of his sons or palace guards can sell them off.
They can even be gifted to politicians who come visiting.

Nigeria is not ripe for such returns.
The West should continue keeping our artifacts.
They are safer with them.

Ordinary Abacha's money that was returned can not be accounted for.
Let alone these artworks.

Oba please just face your Gelegele seaport and forget about these artifacts.

Calm down sir, the OP is confused, the original news was not referring to Benin Nigeria. The British stole from us not French.

French is talking about Benin Republic sir, and yes they have better structures in place to keep their stuff safe unlike naija

Flexherbal:
All these, just for human destruction!

No sir, air defense systems are to protect not destroy.

God1000:
Despite recently closing hundreds of bases in Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States still maintains nearly 800 military bases in more than 70 countries and territories abroad with a staggering military budget of $753.5 billion.

The United States spends more on national defense than China, India, Russia, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, Germany, France, Japan, South Korea, Italy, and Australia combined

So much of America's power comes from its size: it is one the largest countries on Earth by population and area, and is rich in natural resources and human capital. It is also in many ways an island nation; because it faces no major threats on its borders apart from migrants from central American countries.

The US cultural influence extends across the world, for example over two billion people speak some English in the world today with the majority speaking an Americanised version of the language. US TV programmes, films, video games and music have a large domestic market of more than 300 million customers, in addition to their influence on the rest of the world. The USA also has a social and cultural impact on immediate neighbours such as Mexico and Canada and on North/Central America as a whole.
It is the world's foremost economic, political and military power, it has the third largest population in the world (325) million people.
America remains the last western stronghold/empire.

Since the end of second world war in 1945 and the fall of Soviet Union in 1991, no nation on earth is as powerful as America. Though China is growing rapidly in both economic and military aspect, but can China truly dethrone America in the nearest future?

That’s crap! All English speaking countries outside of the UK were all influenced by the British not America. Even American forefathers were British, so English is spread across the world by the British slave trade.

Yes American culture spread across the globe, but not English. Maybe the food, hip hop music, movie etc

And no, for the next few 100 years, America will continue to rule. China is warming up to take over but I don’t see China lasting in that regard.

This might be a great opportunity to go back to Regional government, where every region control and manages its own resources then make the central government weak.

Northerners will always be northerners anyways … but this is a great opportunity right here. They can enjoy their oil money, while East and West enjoy theirs too in peace.
