Boiling the downturn of one of the largest military contractors in the country down to "accountants" is a mass simplification. Boeing has 1000s of employees focused on regulation and oversight. If the federal government didn'

Canada may attribute some of its problems to America, but its success, is also attributed to proximity to America.

I don't think I've seen good news come out of Canada in some time. Weak military, overspending, corruption, counterintuitive commitments to mass immigration, a higher education that is focused on international students, CCP infilt

I understand your argument but this supportive coddling methodology which has dominated our culture over the past few years has gotten us fatter and more unhealthy. Maybe for children or mentally ill people that is a compassionate strategy
