    United States citizens should take note. We never seem to appreciate the consequences of our actions, at home or abroad, until they return to us.

    You don’t after they return to you either, with WTC being an example. If anything you doubled down.

      Doubled down hard. But it’s ok. We’re getting ours now. We’re looking great on the financial markets. But it’s all collapsing internally. Infrastructure. People are going hungry. Millions homeless because Private Equity decided it wanted to own literally all the houses and turn them all into rentals that are unaffordable for most people. Between climate change and racism we’re months away from supply chain failures when it comes to food. On top of that AI is putting whole industries worth of people out of work. All with no safety nets whatsoever. Just this ingrained nonsensical idea that “Poverty is a choice”.

      We’re at the state of late stage capitalism where the system cannibalizes itself.
