Real unemployment is reaching 20%, Obama has done nothing to help even though he constantly touted mainstreet, and he has abandoned California. The income gap has probably widened even further. And he's given trillions to the very companies that created this mess.
For some reason he is enjoying flying around the globe talking about wars with other poor countries, and making up excuses why they are a threat, so the US can deal "defensive" weapons to countries like Japan.
Its not the end of an empire, it is more like the rise of the imperial army, except noone can see this.
Here's what the imperial army did to Afghanistan as it did to Vietnam:

Thanks Scooby, I agree. Of course Australians have manta rays, while the US is prone to shooting itself in the head at times as well.
Nuclear energy is the contentious issue, its still unfair that wealthy countries can benefit from nuclear energy but poorer ones can't.

I hope he considers that it is mostly wealthy countries that hold nuclear weapons, and that it does put all other poorer countries at an increasing disadvantage, particularly in terms of the use of nuclear energy.
The income gap has not only widened within all of our own countries as Sweden, US, Japan, etc, but also between rich and poor countries. My concern is the rights of the little guy, of which I would argue is the main reason why North Korea is so defiant.

Maybe Aso could give tips on Manga escapism, in a time when the global economy slips into recession, and US soldiers (cool!) go after guys they don't even know. Let them eat "manga".

I can also think of many reasons why ganj could be good, especially if you look at the many crack and heroine addicts in North America, and in the same sense, the many salarymen in Japan who drink until they can't remember which station they left their briefcase. I agree that ganj could be a better alternative, much more chill, and that it goes well with good music, girls, etc.
But, you never know what happens when you die, after a while I know many people who quit and don't touch that stuff because it costs a lot of money, the utility of it bottoms, and it wastes a lot of time.
But the number one thing to me, is that the most hardcore of these guys, are not your friend, they couldn't care less if you fell off the face of the earth, even though when you are with them, they seem like the best thing that ever happened.
It might get you girls, and friends, but that is not really what they want from you, they just want your ganj.
So the next time you smoke up, fine if you want to, but the guys next to you are not your real friends, it starts to gets really boring, your wasting your cash, unless of course you grow and sell to your friends who are wasting their cash, while the world is in a global recession, more than 10% have lost their jobs, 1BN around the world are now in poverty, and 26,000 kids are dying everyday.
You can smoke up and celebrate this great world and great life you have, but eventually you will start to wonder, what the f#%$ is going on?
We live in a crazy world, even if we don't smoke, and maybe even more so if MJ is legalized, but you can't ignore the world that you wake up to every morning. Your chains are this world, and that you will die some day, so it might be in your interest to try to understand why, regardless of what good or bad religion you live by.

I had so called friends push me on cigarettes everyday until I started smoking when I was in grade eleven. I didn't even drink. But as per the gateway theory . . .
I don't mind smoking, and figure I can do it till I die, but the reality is that noone knows what happens when we die, and this is where things like cigarettes, weed, and alcohol begin to matter for anyone who has spent any time thinking about it.
If it wasn't for this I would be all over it, no problem, but that isn't the problem.
The easiest way to think of things is that while you do whatever you do, there are wars going on, people don't have jobs, and little black kids are dropping like flies everyday. In everyday parlance, our "brothers".
These are the main reasons why people should minimize "indulging" in the first place, while people you don't necessarily know are going through fairly tough times.
In simple terms we are either part of the problem, cleaning it up, or doing nothing. Pick up a spade brother.

Lets have a celebration for Franken. I really, honestly, hope and pray he can do something for you guys.
I guess he constitutes the better arm or a leg of the overall Frankenstein called the United States of America.
Get your "freedom" fighters out of Afghanistan, quit twittering about Iran, send Carter to North Korea again, or else at least give North Korea a chance to put California out of its misery, because Obama really doesn't seem to care about it, its really disappointing.

So the US has election accuracy problems, maybe there needs to be a regime change if Obama keeps bending over for Wall Street, selling out California, and wearing Bush's war panties. You guys are disgraceful and an embarrassment to your own people, if they haven't already started noticing.
I bet there is a higher likelihood of a regime change in the US than in Iran. You guys embarrass yourselves.

I found the link for who you guys work for, its called the United States Special Activities Division in the CIA (acronym SAD). You work for the cyber warfare division.
"The political action group within SAD is responsible for covert activities related to political influence, psychological warfare, and economic warfare. The rapid development of technology has also added computer or cyber warfare to this type of operation."
This is your mission:
"If there are missions in countries that are denied to US military special operations forces, such as Pakistan or Iran, SAD/SOG units are the primary national special missions unit to execute those operations. [166]"
These are the missions you have been involved in throughout history:
"Tibet, Korea, Cuba, Bolivia, Vietnam, Laos, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Somalia, Afghanistan, Yemen, Iraq"
Of course you will deny this, because:
"If they are compromised during a mission, the government of the United States often denies all knowledge."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpecialActivitiesDivision
But your current mission, along with what Kissinger is saying, is to garner support for a regime change in Iran, and resources and cheap labor in North Korea (Kim Jong already knows this). Pull the wool over the eyes of people who are afraid of losing their jobs, and made to be fearful of other countries.
You waste Billions of dollars, meddling with Billions of lives, putting a Billion worldwide in poverty, for the Billionaires that control you. You are the biggest sell outs, and you have the nerve to post ads for ex-bankers. Your selling out your own people.
But there are Billions of us. We will eventually figure this out if we haven't already, and we will definitely not let you get away with this.

Kissenger, a "non-religious" person, is calling for a regime change in The "Islamic" Republic of Iran, including the use of war and at the cost of soldiers, women, and children dying, at a time when his people on mainstreet are facing a historical recession. He's a sociopath.
For someone with a username "TheQuestion", you might want to try to focus your questions and avoid the use of word play.

So by the above examples we can see how heated and sensitive election issues can be, even if they were ages ago, and even without an outside country meddling with US affairs.
So when Iran calls the US or UK meddling "intolerable", I think I can see where they might coming from.

Sorry, how many states in the US are on the verge of bankruptcy? How many promises has Obama held since coming to office? Sorry, what are you talking about with this western system? Is this the same western system you are talking about? Lets talk about how it is doing today, pick a country if there are any left. You must be old, because what you talk of is old news. As zurcronium says, don't try so hard, and posting your garbage twice doesn't help either.

"In absolute terms, the United States currently has the largest inmate population in the world, with more than 2½ million[8] or more than one in a hundred adults[9] in prison and jails." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prison
"a spade is a spade" As is the media that you and I read. Keeping up, is a matter of comprehension.
Kissenger, being a former Jew, would be relevant to anyone who is a Jew, and wouldn't want to be associated with him.
I know that at least 50% of my friends in different companies in different countries have lost their jobs. I guess you haven't noticed or care, but its the bleeding of people that is ultimate indicator for the economy.
A spade is for digging holes, it might dawn on you at a later stage, when you are looking in its shiny reflection, and you might be wishing that you were a Jew, or a Christian, or a Muslim. Take care man.

Real Estate agents need to sell mortgages to pay their rent, recruiters need turnover, soldiers need war machine. Its a big policy machine we live in run by psychopaths. "Just doing your job" within the machine just doesn't justify anything or make you feel proud of yourself anymore.
Tough and understandable call, but sell out and pretend to deny it, or stop fooling yourself.
Its not how tough, proud, or face-to-face you are, its what you are selling out to. It doesn't matter if the old man or old lady is saying "anno", maybe they think you're prone to violence.

Saddam Hussein led the totalitarian regime that invaded Iran, only to be defended by the US that sided with the Totalitarian regime against Iran. The the US flipped sides later and took out Saddam Hussein. And now it is calling for a Regime change in Iran. They are looking for any excuse to do this.
And Injet, like Kissenger, is the apologist for going to war. Spineless.
