geez, there's a constant barrage of "end of days " threads and reporting from all sides .
Chill out pansies ! We live in pretty good times.
There's no warring nations (other than some terror his spots and civil war actions)
There's no real nuke war threat/worries .
Crime is at all time lows ( high profile crime gets overblown) .
Jobs and the Economy is doing ok .
Gas is cheap!
When have things been better ?? Maybe clintons 2nd term, but we were blissfully ignorant at the time .
People look at history wh rose colored glasses and forget hoe shitty things used to be .
1. North Korea and China are rising threats.
2. Russia and The United States of America are still playing proxy war in the Middle East.
3. Gas Prices are lower but don't count on Oil to stay this low.
Final remark:
I don't look at History with Rose Color Glasses but the reality is the Economy along with the State of the World is not as great as you wish and before you even utter I am just being this way because of President Obama, well no and I am this way because the World along with this Country are about to hit hard times, but ignore me because I am insane and if it happens I promise to write I told you so!
In fact, bruce, the state of the world is better than you think. There have always been "rising threats." I do agree we need to get out of the ME once and for all. Gas prices are good, and when they go up again, that will continue to spur alternative fuels. I agree with OP. The end of days is not here.
Noted and remember when another crash happens I promise to say I told you so and no the State of this World is not good at all...
Africa is a cluster ****... Middle East is still a Proxy War area... Mexico is ran by Cartels along with Central America... South America is not any better... Asia is about to erupt into a war...
So as you and the OP'er pretend the world is perfectly fine or better than it was eight years ago, well keep on ignoring it and reality is this Country is on another bubble and when the Market crashes again all of you will claim it was this side or the other while ignoring the reality you knew this was going to happen again!
If you are saying the economy is cyclical, up and down, then say so. We did not fail then and we will not fail in the future. Wait, elect a Trump or a Clinton, and I might take that back. Don't ever put words in my mouth, "the world is perfectly or better than it was eight years ago," that I did not say. That's a loser.
Hey asshole you are the one agreeing with the ******* OP'er so make up your damn mind up if the world is perfectly fine or better than it was eight years ago or not!?!
You're the one claiming the State of the World is better than I think and offered no proof to support your comment and I can provide all the proof about China and North Korea being threats, Africa being a cluster ****, Middle east is another Proxy War, and Asia is about on the verge of war, but I am the one that is wrong according to you!
What a ******* loser you are and cut the shit because I know damn well you will vote for Clinton come this November while denying it until something goes right!
So it is your turn loser because the State of the World is fucked and you should also explain how alternative fuels have helped this country because of right now this country is still on the Oil like a junky hooked on crack!
