It's unbelievable to look at the past forty years of global history and think civilization's biggest challenge is the rich are taxed too much.

Dummkopf Trumpf recklessly withdrew the US from the WHO on the first day he seized power on 20 Jan 2025. This year's spikes in measles cases could cause the US to lose its "elimination status" by next year after the CDC reports nearly 2,000 cases and 50 outbreaks nationwide.

Superflu Spreading in Empire State
Dummkopf Trumpf and the Republican Party's war on the poor, sick, vulnerable, and disabled continues in our insidious privatized healthcare system which puts profits before people, unlike the healthcare systems of Germany, Israel, France, Canada, or the UK.

Hi Hamburglar
Thanks for posting. That surgeon is a genuine Samaritan. As luck would have it, I was just gifted a National Geographic subscription for Xmas.
The Pyongyang regime is silly to show film of Westerners to their people. The Norks see how healthy and well-dressed the Westerners are compared to them, as well as their South Korean cousins.

*** Poverty Drives People to Catch Rare Songbirds in China ***
"Each year on China, tens of thousands of birds are caught in nets for the pet trade, or for meat.
The pandemic and a property crisis have turned the economy sluggish, so catching and selling songbirds on the black market is a low-cost and often low-risk way of making a large profit.
A pretty songbird, such as a Siberian rubythroat, can often sell for nearly 2,000 yuan (210; $280), which is more than many farmers earn in a month."

*** North Korea Tests Long Range Cruise Missiles ***
"North Korea fired long-range strategic cruise missiles into the sea to test the country's nuclear deterrence, days after Kim Jong-un showed off the apparent progress in the construction of his first nuclear-powered submarine.
Sunday's launches were the latest weapons display by North Korea ahead of its planned ruling Workers' Party congress early next year."

Meanwhile, the morbidly obese Kim Jong-un stuffs his face with gourmet food as the children of his country starve, another generation of under-weight infants born under their nefarious dynasty.
ICE agents barked at the pastor that they had to take him back to their office in order to prove his legal status to be in the US.
"He's a pastor! You're beating a pastor," one witness yells.
"He's not a pastor in this country," one of the ICE thugs growls.
"God will judge you," an eyewitness warns. "You're taking people from their kids, and leaving them alone."

Your father and my friend served in the USAF as navigators at the same time. 'Vic' also flew missions during the Cuban Missile Crisis and met JFK (and MLK Jr later).

#9: There is no confusion on my part as a cook or my friend who worked in the food industry as a "taster." .
My wife and I bought fresh groceries and produce in Paris France and Tokyo Japan and ate like the natives during the day on picnics.
At night, we went to eat where the locals ate, not the tourist spots.
When I was single, I did the same in Thailand, Turkiye, and Germany. I bought local produce and ate picnic style. At night, I ate with the locals.
Food and produce taste better overseas because they are fresh, are less chemically-processed, and use different pesticides than US food. I can see the difference when I shop in the foreign grocery stores.
