How To Be Loved And Approved By The Rest Of The World

 

We were at one point the most successful and beloved country on the planet.

Not everyone liked us but when we were treating our citizens appropriately that was making millions of people very impressed and wanting to live here.

We have destroyed that now since the only thing we are ding is helping those that are very wealthy become obscenely wealthy by letting the abuse their employees and by allowing them to send jobs overseas.

I have no problem with people working overseas but they should be used to cover problems where we do not have enough people here to cover the issues.

When we have millions looking for work there is absolutely no excuse for sending jobs overseas. Once we have all our people employed then we absolutely can send jobs overseas to cover what we do not have enough employees for.

Every single company in this country and in other countries should have their leadership placed in jail for abusing the people of their country.

If you are making 10s of millions of dollars or more while many of your employees are barely able to survive on their salaries then you should be fined enough to place you in the same financial situation as your employees and the fines should be distributed evenly among your poorly paid employees.

All you need to do is make sure you are paying your employees enough to live reasonably well. As the CEO and developer of your company you absolutely deserve to live very well but you should be forbidden to live well if you refuse to pay your employees enough to at least be reasonably comfortable.

At my last job I was not by any stretch of the imagination the lowest paid employee but I was still barely living paycheck to paycheck and the CEO of that company was making about 1000 times more than I was making.

I wonder how proud of that he was.

The biggest world problem as far as economy goes is that we have apparently taught many countries how to make a few people insanely rich while screwing over their citizens.

If this is allowed to continue for another couple of years I expect to see the majority of people living in tents or shacks outside the castles or mansions of the wealthy as most become peons again as what was happening several centuries ago and it lasted through the gilded age.

Those of you who are wealthy assholes be prepared for the torches and pitchforks to come back out. It will be something other than actual torches and Pitchforks but whatever it turns out to be will make you unhappy.

Start paying people well and treating them properly and that will never happen.

Why The US Is No Longer Seen As The World Leader In Many Countries

 

One big problem is the fact that our political leaders are completely unwilling to work together to do what is needed. We have way to many politicians that think that we have no need to work with other countries to truly help them. No one is willing to actually try and work together. There are issues with terrorist groups that we just play with and won’t do what needs to be done to get rid of them.

Another problem is our citizens who travel overseas. Many act as though they are in their own home and refuse to adhere to the laws in the other countries as they should. Many Americans are pretty xenophobic which means they have no respect for the cultures and/or the Religions in the countries they go to.

Since we are completely unwilling to actually be truly helpful the rest of the world just considers us to be inconsiderate and unfriendly. Isolationism is a very bad thing.

Piracy

 

It is still relatively dangerous to be off the coast of Somalia but several countries are patrolling that area and have cut down on the number of ships taken over by pirates.

This was happening because Somalia for decades has not really had a government so it was completely uncontrolled.

Now we have a new area of the world that is becoming a piracy problem. We have ships being prated in South East Asia now.

Not everyone may agree with the types of government but the countries there all actually have a government and they are not in a position where criminal groups can just take over so not sure what the hell is going on there.

We need to put together a world group that has the power to handle problem like this but with common sense people in control and the authority to tell the legislature of any country that wants to stand in the way to go screw itself.
