Oreo cookies made in Mexico and at my local grocery carrots imported from Israel. I'll make my own cookies, and I stopped buying those carrots a long time ago in support of local farmers.

What's already on shelves in stores should be grandfathered in, but being capitalist, I'm sure there are store owners that will up their prices on what's been on their shelves forever.

Being alert and standing up for your rights is what 'stay woke' truly means in the real world. God may not always give you what you want, but He will always give you what you need. The pursuit of freedom, justice, and equality is never stagnant in a democracy.

The threat of invoking the 25 Amendment if a president's negligence leads to a financial collapse of the economy and world markets should get his attention.Taking action before that happens as opposed to letting it run its course and then playing the blame game doesn't seem logical. 🗣

The frequency of global economic cycle problems has become somewhat more compressed in recent years, likely due to the growing interconnectedness of economies and rapid technological advances that amplify disruptions. It seems the timeline of our economic crisis is becoming shorter 2,4,8 years...

As major department stores close, there should be a resurgence of ma and pa businesses. If these ma and pa businesses open in regular neighborhoods in low overhead buildings, maybe we can see better pricing. Not to knock malls or strip malls, but they do add to higher prices of goods and services.

China is looking to spend 11 trillion dollars developing the moon. When I saw the article I'm like nah you ain't right messing with America's mind like that. They already say they "can't live in a world where China is the leader," now China's throwing in the moon too. That ain't right🤭🤭🫣

Not to give in to fear, but reading about France and other European countries developing survival manuals for their citizens is the smart thing to do. They said it's in the case of World War 3, natural disaster related to weather, and / or the return of Covid issues.👀

Tariffs the high cost of rebuilding US cities that are being rocked by tornadoes and floods is just mindless and irresponsible thinking. It shows a lack of foresight and awareness of the times we're in.🛌🛌

Nature is really putting a beating on the country. There is so much intersection connected to extreme weather. Starting with globalization, that movement that the US thought they would be able to control.Growing economies around the world,I don't think,was fully anticipated. Then covid exposed us...

I feel Elon got played. Republicans let him do the dirty work and catch the heat over the layoffs and shut downs. Their jobs are secured while his businesses and reputation are trashed. If he was woke, he should have seen it coming.How many people went to jail and were sued in the first presidency😴😴

Each time winter passes, nature takes a small part of us. Unlike a bandit or thief who steals to keep, nature returns spring, offering a chance to reclaim some of what was lost. In our ecosystem, we observe that our bodies weaken slightly with each passing season.

Nature's question of race superiority is being addressed every day. When tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes strike, the message is clear as people stand there crying because everything you pride yourself on is trashed. The message is that you're no better than anybody else. One Humanity.

Continuous threats of war on specific countries have me wondering if they see the only solution to this madness is preemptive moves. When you're so confident in your oats that you don't see the pieces shifting, you become a bigger threat to yourself.

Mainstream media is reaping the returns on its investment by keeping Trump in the spotlight throughout Biden’s presidency, downplaying Biden’s accomplishments over his four-year term. They covered Trump 24/7 for four years straight what an experiment in social engineering. 👏👏👏

With all the things that have seen cut and is being cut, it tells me that maybe the greatness that they're pursuing was all ready here. With aid for education, foreign aid for the needy, medical research, international security, and much more. A fool will piss on you and tell you it's raining...🤥🤥🤔

This is what happens when politicians are competing to leave a legacy. "In my time as president or whatever, this is the legacy that I chose to leave behind." This is why he's always referring back to Obama and Biden listen to him. He's legacy chasing, and it's costing us big time.

? To Deepseek "What came first space or time?"" Thought for 38 seconds. Okay, so the user is asking, "What came first, space or time?" Hmm, that's a deep question. I need to think about how to approach this. Let me start by recalling what I know about space and time in physics and philosophy.

For 5 million dollars, you can buy a gold card and become an American citizen. But 40 million dollars, you can buy a position in government and fire as many people as you want at will. You gotta love capitalism.🤩🤑🤑

Democracy expands and contracts. Voting rights,civil liberties, and press freedom have grown but also faced setbacks. Examples include U.S. suffrage,Germany’s reunification,the Arab Spring,Brexit,and South Africa’s transition. Democracy thrives through advocacy but contracts when power is unchecked.

"Fools think that just because you shut down all discussions about climate change, it will somehow go away. But climate change is here. We're in it. It's happening every day, all around us. Burying your head in the sand and pretending it doesn't exist is just foolish." 🤧🥵😓

If smart glasses are supposed to replace Cell phones then good bye facial recognition. I just don't see how facial recognition can get it right, wearing all kinds of shapes and sizes of glasses in the future.

People voted and supported the LGBTQ movement. Churches flew flags off their buildings while other churches split up and separated. People thought it was a Nobel movement because it hadn't been fully exposed. When it started showing up more in public,that changed. Movies,kids' books,seeing it fully.

Telling Russia that he gave Ukraine those high-tech missiles that destroyed all their tanks and killed their soldiers is something that only a fool would do unknowingly. He put out way too much information. While trying to be hardcore.
