I’m on a board in a contest with Forf motors to think of ways to improve traffic.

i am in the top 10.

But the THOUSANDS of kids in their teens and 20s who came up with GREAT ideas that were sharp and different impressed me immensely was great.

MANY have their own businesses and they are from all different backgrounds.

It was great to see America is still producing many, many young bright kids.

You are negative and you’re not ahead of any curve except the negative miserable curve.

Good luck in life with that

I am from Southern California originally, and I remember living near Boeing and the Rockwell Space companies. At night, they would test engines and you could hear them for miles. That stopped years ago. The Los Angeles Unified School District, which I attended, is now 8% White. I kid you not. I fled California and now live in a city that is fairly great. Mexico is not great. It never has, and it never will be. I know why that is, because I lived on the front lines, and I watched with my own eyes an entire state turned to ash. Those people aren't going to stay there, of course. They move, they pack up and head to wherever it is great enough for them to subsist. Millions and millions. The numbers are astounding.

And that's my point, it is very difficult to look at our numbers, and not become a realist. I wish I could poop gumdrops, I wish America could be great again. I don't see how. Well, I do see how, but the American public would not be keen on the surgery needed to make us well. Surgery is very bloody, it hurts, and you have to lose all sorts of things. Scalpels, radiation, caustic chemicals. Nasty stuff. Slowing immigration isn't going to do it. Reversing it, by deporting millions, and building a wall would have done it. It doesn't seem like we're going to get that.

America is a huge machine, and when you turn off a huge machine it still runs for a while. The cogs spin, the levers chug along and everything looks quite lively although it is dead. Our power was removed a while ago. All civilizations have a limited span, and we, unfortunately hit our peak with the moon landings.
