North America Political & Social Issues

Many similarities. Usually predictable....but not always. So goes Nature and Human Nature.

Falsehoods and bogus information circulating, ruling & ruining the day; such garbage crammed down our throats! We must get back in the word of God, with focus on the family. Critical thinking, not theory, common sense, not nonsense. Respect for our fellow man/woman...including those in uniform.

Oh verdict of guilty was handed to Derek Chauviin in the case of George Floyd and there is a possibility he could spend 40 years in jail.

Many in the Mainstream Media have made a dangerous practice of convicting now, asking questions later. They have gotten away with igniting the fire, fanning the flames and then leaving the scene, come what may.....for far too long!

It is possible to take a stand, to make a point, to welcome back normalcy into our lives, without making a scene. I am challenging all who read this to join me in this endeavor, it's the only way we take our lives back! What do you say...let’s get naked-faced!

The US withdrawal from Afghanistan signals the 6th consecutive defeat after WW II and raises questions about America's commitment to its allies as well as signals the eclipse of the USA as a global power

My mind is blown over what is currently in the News feed of the day! The gist;Georgia wants to deny voters water, while demanding they show i.d. They expect people to have an i.d. to vote AND their own water (should they become thirsty) Outrageous! MLB, for one, has had it. Wow just wow!

Ontario premier Doug Ford claims - rightfully - that the province doesn't need paid sick days as there's a federal benefit. Here's why that's problematic.

Closing in on ten years of doing what I love to do...write! I am so thankful for the opportunity provided by Hubpages and I am forever grateful to those who have guided, supported,constructively criticized, followed and have taken the time to comment and/or discuss various topics. Thank you all!

I don't think so. I don't believe for an instant that citizens of this great Country are ready to trade it in for whatever 'the left' has envisioned for us. No retreat, no surrender!

During the pre-2020 election, the Trump people would often mention (and they still do) that Biden is a one term president due to his age (78) and his growing reduced mental capacity. They would note his gaffs while speaking, which sometimes were mind boggling, and now?

Whenever a teenage girl runs away from home to be with someone older she met on the Internet, a criminal investigation ensues. However, the subject of teenage pregnancy never seems to get brought up in discussions about it. Meanwhile, our society scorns adolescent mothers as young as 12 years old.

How many lives do you know of that have been affected (beyond the inconvenience) in a very costly and impactful way, not due to having Covid, but because of Government policies centered around Covid? Please share your stories in the comments section.

Obama was the first non-white President but he did not set the Thames on fire and after a brief interlude with the rightist Donald Trump, Joe Biden has won a suspect victory but does it auger well for America?

A recollection piece about the presidency of Donald J. Trump from the perspective of a willfully ignorant millennial. From overt hatred to constant misinformation, it was one hell of a ride we will all need to recover from.

Losing a job is tough. Being told your job is cut through a Zoom, Slack or Google Meet? Unimaginable.

Dedicated to Rush Limbaugh and my fellow Dittoheads

Impeachment trial of Donald Trump is over. He could not be convicted but his trial appeared to be a Kangaroo court and the purpose was to humiliate the president. It served no purpose and lowered American Prestige all over the world. It is also a pointer that America is imploding.

The American empire is tottering just after 75 years and one of the reasons for its likely demise is its policies to destabilize the world and prop up unpopular and dictatorial regimes as well as exploit the other nations.

It has been suggested that we consider a 'Reality Czar' as a part of the Biden Administration. One more almighty ruler, a truth detecting Wizard, in a position to have even more control and power over We the People. Scary!

Do you want to make Canada your new home? Have you done all your homework? Are you up for the challenge?

Biden's Stimulus Plan.

Joe Biden's speech was historic.was It historic or not?

When Donald Trump hit D.C. like a man on fire, I wrote of buckling up and holding on, because finally, someone was there to get things done for the benefit of the people. I will suggest once more, buckle up and hold on, but for different reasons, they are putting lives in jeopardy, we aren't safe!

We may be down, but don’t count us out. Times may seem bleak, but we’ve been through bleak times before. How much fire do we have left in the belly?

Obama Did The Same.

A look at opportunities way back when, compared to opportunities today. How far have we advanced as a society in our search for the American Dream?

For starters, have we ever been any further apart from each other, from God? From where I stand, I don't see how we progress, in any positive form or fashion, when HATE has been allowed to fester, grow, control the narrative, hold the spotlight, bringing us to this DARK place in time.

A summary of the social issues in this country from a Republican's point of view.

Taking a cue from the US president Donald Trump demonstrators entered capital Hill and ransacked the place. This never happened before but the French revolution took place in 1789 after hundreds of years and there is every possibility that this could be the start of a big upheaval.

Because we dared to elect an outsider, Donald J. Trump, we are being paid back? Career politician D.C. Swamp dwellers, many spineless Reps and Senators, certainly the biased, leftist MSM, have already condemned us for what happened in D.C. on January 6, 2021, before any evidence has been presented.

Joe Biden will be the next President of the United States but one has a feeling that he may not be the engine that slowly ebbs away the great power status of America.

Take a trip with me back to 1960, a young couple, disaster strikes, and the similarities I see today, sixty years later.

What now for our beloved United States of America? Are you, personally, ready to give up on this Country, in lieu of something else? What does something else look like? Are you surrounded by other individuals who feel the same as you or do you feel like a minority, when it comes to your opinion?

It's a personal look at this whole highly advertised, massive racket destroying our immune system, our only true defense against the virus -- under the excuse of "raising the public awareness".

Ontario's finance minister and director of media relations are reportedly out of Ontario AFTER Premier Doug Ford cautioned against out-of-province travel for Ontario residents.

To many people, American exceptionalism conjures the image of egotistical people telling other nations what to do or refusing to acknowledge that the world has changed. For others, though, it creates the image of opportunities to become what you want to be in freedom and without oppression.

We are being asked to accept a lot, including; fraud, deception, false imprisonment, espionage, cowardice.....How much more do we accept? How much longer do we turn a blind eye or worse...see with two good eyes, but choose to ignore?

There is very little chance that Trump will continue as president despite all the plans that he is making. A Joe Biden presidency means going back in time to what it was earlier. This was the time when the down slide of America had begun and many people outside feel it will be accentuated. now.

Listening to today's Left, day in and day out pondering how the United States has managed to survive for over 240 years...without them...is excruciating! This current crop of leftists are the worst; always telling us that our Country is worthless and that we need THEM to save us from ourselves!

In simple words, we are programmed to constantly need an enemy. Now see the complete version of it.

What a year! I usually don't like to say goodbye to another year, sentiments and all that...time we'll never get back...but to 2020 I'll say goodbye and good riddance!

Despite some hiccups, Biden will be the President of the USA but he is touching 79 and at that age men generally play safe. Ever heard of a revolutionary at the age of 80? Chances are he will do the tango with China to get some benefits so that he can win another election. Shades of Bahadur Shah.

Without any logical motivation that would have become globally popular, what's really behind this peculiar national passion of Americans to possess guns?

As Trump continues to try to remain in office after the obvious defeat via an "internal coup", he faces litigation on many issues, needs to repay $400 million in loans due, and Melania's planned divorce. No wonder he is desperately trying to stay in the White House.

After Election 2020, the United States is living out Hans Christian Andersen's folktale "The Emperor New Clothes."
