Here's a good example of a lost soul, lost in the techno future.

')The United States must triumph in the escalating “Cold War” against China for AI supremacy or risk a future where robots, powered by Marxist ideology, rule over Americans and the rest of the world, warned billionaire tech investor Marc Andreessen in a recent interview.

Andreessen predicted that AI will serve as the “control layer” for all aspects of society, from education and healthcare to transportation and law. The tech investor then raised the dangerous prospects of children being taught by Chinese AI, infused with Marxist principles and Chinese President Xi Jinping’s ideology.

That bald toad would be one of your hero's wouldn't he adam? Anyone who talks tech and has made billions selling unneeded product to an unsuspecting population gets worshiped over there.

When your country is no longer your country.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '.')..published a comprehensive overview on the riots in California last week, but I also want to examine how we got here in the first place and why many foreign governments are so intrusive when it comes to US immigration policies.

Think about it for a moment and ask yourself: Why is the rest of the world in our business? Why do they care if we have tighter controls on borders and stricter vetting for immigration? Why don’t foreign governments also complain about Chinese immigration standards, or Saudi Arabia’s standards, or even Australia’s standards? Why does everyone else think they have a say in how America handles immigration?

America’s Retirement Crisis Hits a Breaking Point
May 8, 2025
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')Retirement security in the United States is at a critical turning point. As the Baby Boomer generation ages, the nation now has more retirement-age individuals—and more households relying on Social Security—than at any point in history. Yet the program is paying out more than it collects, and without legislative action, the Trust Fund will be depleted within a decade. Meanwhile, most private retirement savings have shifted to market-based accounts like 401(k)s, exposing near-retirees to financial volatility they cannot control. This dual vulnerability—an underfunded public system and risky private savings—demands urgent political action to secure promised Social Security benefits, strengthen the Social Security Administration, and pursue economic policies that safeguard household retirement wealth from avoidable market shocks.

Retirement security in the United States is entering its most precarious moment in decades...

...when he asked Democrats for feedback on the funding bills, one said, "It means death." "There's nothing about death," Trump said. "Theirs is death because they're going to lose Medicaid, they're going to lose Social Security, they're going to lose Medicare, all of those things are going to be gone because the whole country would be bankrupt, and you're not going to have any kind of medical insurance."

The Australian Government old age pension pays around $2400/mth for a home owner, more for renters. This is backed by the vast resources of the nation, a nation of only 27 million people. Funding it is a simple matter as we are not mired in debt not have a debilitating military budget to fund.
