unfortunately, on the whole Americans are not at the same precipice as the Europeans. The Europeans have been pushed much harder, thus the much harder pushback. Our politicians (GOP included) like to cook the frog slow if they can and the careful ones know just how far they can push things. How ironic if the hope for a free west falls on Europe. Pompeo was RIGHT. Remember the Goverors conference he spoke at? How many on both sides of the aisle have been compromised by China and corrupted by money?
Europeans have a much more delineated class system. Us vs them. For as much as the cabal tries to drive wedges into our society to create us vs them, methinks we are still rather integrated, and move between, or think we can move between and amongst the classes.
Good points.
