Yep, for the past 10 years or so hardly a month goes by that they don't try to trash something to do with a western economy, while ignoring the real sh*t holes worldwide. National Geo still clings to the completely discredited Algore/IPCC theory of anthropogenic global warming, too. It's a crying shame for somebody like me who has subscribed to the mag since the 1960's.....btw, I have a copy of a National Geographic from May of 1921 that I found in my grandmother's attic after she passed in 1973. Pretty stark contrast to what they put out nowadays......
Treasure that 1921 copy. I know you do.
