True. Unfortunately we apparently haven't learned from history.... Rome, Wiemar Germany, Zimbabwe, Venezuela, Argentina, Turkey, South Africa... many others. Apparently our politicos never heard the expression, "A smart man learns from his mistakes. A wise man learns from the mistakes of others."
Problem is they don't actually care about joe public, there only interest is signing deals and getting huge back handers and like Boris is about to do, run away leaving everyone in the shit. Amazon will slip him a quick Billion for closing all the shops and bankrupting them, to his offshore account then off to Billionaire Paradise Island never to be seen from again.
"Leftist Government" of all swipes have NEVER CARED ABOUT JOE PUBLIC! Their ideal objective is to have a very small ruling class with everybody else being slaves to their whims and/or tax donkeys (Think former Soviet Union). American DemoCraps are that too! That's the nature of "Leftism" all around the world. With Biden, Peolosi, Schumer, et all "in power"... we'll see every bit of that in America.
Our righty conservative government turned out to be Lefties aswell, worryingly. Which is odd, considering years ago the Labour government we had, turned out to be rights LOL Which is why there using Covid and BS Lockdowns to bankrupt all the small businesses so the Public rely on them for essentialls like food and housing, then more CONTROL ie better slaves. UK's signed a deal with the USA so Biden will export his Leftie crap over here aswell. Sounds GREAT for the poor huddled stupid masses, until they hugely over spend and then you've got no job, no income, no food, no health care, but hey your own fault for not being able to support yourself LOL
Yes. My view... #1, many so-called "conservatives" are actually RINOs. #2, many from the right have deduced, "the Left is going to win in the end... so, for our own personal well-being, we'd better go along with them so as not to be left out". No principles "for country"... just CMOA (Cover My Own Ass) for when the SHTF!
Sadly PC which is Leftie Social Control programming has screwed everyone brains as what is right and wrong " can always print more money " for example, thinking for yourself was outlawed and frowned upon since 2018 so no way to reverse this. Must Follow the other sheep, must go Baaaa!!
Unfortunately, sometimes when someone "sticks his head out" above the crowd in opposition, he gets it shot off! Seems Americans don't understand the Patriots of the American Revolution... who basically told King George III, to "F'off".. and declared, "If we don't hang together, we'll surely all hang separately". America this time is at an equivalent "crossroad", but the enemy is not the King of England, but is rather our own DemoCrap Lefties.
Worse, labelled none PC like Elon Musk then hated for ever and attacked for even the good things they do. Interesting how PC's hate the rich, but they made them rich and there making them richer, while slagging them off LOL
Makes you wonder. They make it seem as if the lower apr on credit cards is a world of awesomeness but I can tell you even with my fantastic credit score I can barely get my apr down to low double digits, so imagine those with a credit score lower than 725 or 650!!!
%% Slightly related to that, Pres Andrew Jackson was one of the best.The job of the commander in chief is not to win a popularity contest+ you already have that figured out. Some people have a hard time finding fault with USA/so they go back over 100 years/LOL Also strange; Pres Lincoln was an ''honest lawyer'' LOL
