I like hamburger and don’t have a television. What does that mean?
Yup. But this nation still out produces the rest of the planet by a wide margin. And our military (actual war fighters, not the leadership) is far superior to anything else the world has ever seen.
So there is still some slim hope...
I believe it is still true that Americans give more to charities than any other population on earth
I think the author sounds like a self-satisfied elitist fussbudget.
wow....
heading out to the gym right now.
then coming home to make a kale and quinona salad.
“Am I being too harsh on the American people?”
NO! You’re right. Americans are a bunch of slobs. Everyday I see things that wouldn’t have been thought of 20 or 30 years ago. Satan has us in a hugh bear hug.
Lord quickly come.
Demographics underlie a lot of this.
“#5 The average American family purchases 200 pounds of meat per family member each year.”
How on earth does that prove anyone is a slob?
“#6 Large numbers of cows that are killed for hamburger meat in America stand ankle-deep in their own manure all day long.”
Again, how does that prove we are slobs?
Well, I think he’s right. Summer is slob season, IMO.
But he left one very important factor off that list: flip-flops.
Actually number 9 is wrong. Mexicans consume more soda than Americans do.
Commonality?
Corn, zea mays, is a major part of the diet, as corn tortillas in Mexico and high fructose corn syrup in the USA.
If a farmer wants to fatten his livestock, what is the feed of choice, hmmmm?
This guy has no friends and no fun.
I have been around cattle all my life and I have never seen cows ankle deep in poop. Pure BS. The cattle men in our neck of the woods take great care of their livestock, spending a lot of money on vets and medicine on their cows.
Thanks for a full-throated defense of liberty!
What about the issue of littering on the roadways. here in America, there needs to be trash can on every corner instead of a bar (tavern) on every corner. People are slobs in that they throw the McDonalds, Taco Bell, Subway, KFC packaging, soda and beer cans, and yes dirty diapers out the car/truck window. When cleaning up alongside the roadway I do find a lot of stuff. I did find a $100.00 bill two days ago in a McDonalds bag!
The people of this nation kicked God out of the schools back in the early 60’s...it is time to reap the whirlwind. Sit back and watch the frantic passengers rearrange the deckchairs on the Titanic.
Did Morrissey write this?
The French smoke like chimneys and their capital city is awash in dog poop. They may not have potholes but they have praying Muslims taking over their public sidewalks and roads. They love their meats, entrails and all. They get to live their socialist lives with free schools and health care because their defense is subsidize by us.
It would be easy enough to pick apart other European countries. South of our border would be even easier. You have to be a liberal to care who laughs at us.
This guy is a loon. His economic blog has been wrong on soooo many occasions it isn’t even funny.
Onoz! 200 lbs of meat per person-year? You mean 3 ounces per meal?? We’re all gonna die!
