    The well regulated militia is called the state national guard.

    It is starting to make sense, but it puts me back to my comment about the general public being in a position to come into power. That was what happened in Germany prior to WW2 and we all know how that ended up. By the time the public came to their senses it was too late.

    The US, along with the rest of the west have one enemy, that is China. Their export policy, along with no reciprocal balance means that we have all the goods and they have all the money. Why people cannot understand the dangers and how it reduces the value of going to work baffles me. I was taught this when I was about 10 years old and it made perfect sense.

    It saddens me that the US has degenerated into this state, but the same could easily happen here in the UK, our elected representatives ae largely idiots.
    Climate change is little but an excuse for making money, sadly California is the largest victim of it all going wrong. I don't know whether you have read any of my posts explaining this. They are hypothesis, but hundreds of people have told me that they make perfect sense. These include the UK,ITE (Institute of engineering and Technology), which I have an honorary fellowship (retired).

    One thing that I am curious about.
    Over the last few years, we are being bombarded with programs telling us that mankind is not native to this planet, something that I firmly believe.
    What puzzles me is why now.
    We are a bit stupid really, no one can even start to comprehend the meaning of infinity, either plus or minus, both in the aspects of space or time.
    No one seems to have noticed this one. We have now discovered a star that appears to have been sending RF modulation. Thiers little point in investigating, since if we contacted them at the speed of light and they replied, the communication would take 20,000 years.

    Did they forget that they're supposed to be protecting a FREE STATE and not an evil fascist authoritarian oligarchy?

    What about Russia, North Korea, Iran, Afghanistan, etc.?

    No I haven't read your posts about climate change.
    You deny the climate changes?
    I had thought there was plenty of evidence that it has changed in the past such as the Last Interglacial age, the Karoo ice age, etc.

    Further, do you deny that last year was the hottest year on record, the past ten years have been the hottest on record, and that from 2021 to 2024 the glaciers have melted at the fastest rate on record?
    Do you deny that the climate, on average, is changing?
    I was unaware that we are being told, in mass, that mankind did not originate on this planet.
    Who is bombarding us with the fact that mankind did not originate on this planet?

    The current theory is that charged particles are emitted by a red dwarf star which are then accelerated by a white dwarf star turning them into radio waves.
    Regardless, I don't think any known life forms can exist on a star of any form.

    The National Guard was set as militias up to protect the colonies as there was no federal army, or federation for that matter.
    After the Revolution the militias were retained as the Anti Federalist refused to allow the federal government to raise an army.
    The First Militia Acts of 1792 allowed the federal government to call up the militias when needed.
    The Second Militia Act of 1792 organized the militias by law.

    The army was formed in 1775, it was basically disbanded after the Revolution.

    The History Channel, of course! Weird Hair Guy knows, cuz he's probably one of 'em. Don't you know that the Anunaki, a crew from the planet Nibiru, colonized the earth and created a race of humanoid slaves, but their renegade science officer Enki bio-engineered some humans with intelligence and the captain of the crew decided to destroy them, but Enki saved them by helping them build and Ark? It's all on the ancient tablets. I take it you don't read Sumerian!

    There was a period of 300 million years that the Earth was a giant frozen iceberg. It changed . . . very slowly.

    Yeah, well I knew that, I thought maybe he was talking about scientific theories or something.

    Past climate changes were due to natural events sans humans.
    Today human activity is also causing climatic changes.

    How much do natural active undersea volcanoes contribute to climate change? Such as the volcano that almost toasted the island of Tonga - in Dec 2021 - Jan 2022.
    (rhetorical question)

    The U.S. isn't #1; they're 24th in happiness; the lowest ranking since they began keeping data. Finland, Denmark, Iceland, and Sweden top the list (damned Socialists!).

    Still, happiness isn't everything. Real wages are up, unemployment is the lowest in 60 years, and the stock market's above 45,000.
    Oh, wait...

    Regular people--you know--the ones who do all the actual work in this country and buy all the crap not needed by anyone----are going to BLATANTLY get fucked over by trump and the right wingers, so at least for the next four years we'll know who's to blame
    for the standard , ongoing regular American fuck-- over, instead of the faceless corporate and legislative pricks that do it and have done it --in the dark , secretly forever.
    So get on the treadmill--put in the required hours and don't forget to--BUY MORE. BUY MORE NOW.:sleeping::pensive:

    I don't think we're number 1 at shooting ourselves in the foot while cheering, but some people sure are bent on us being number one.
