America is an eyelash behind: Note: Meloni is deeply involved with the Republican Party of America and has been for a long time.

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has worried Italian Jews through her past connections to the Italian Social Movement.”

“A nation run by bankers will never be out of debt.
A nation owned by weapons manufacturers will never know peace.
A nation that allows a small segment of its citizens to write the laws will never know justice.
And if these elements own the media, we will never know the truth.”

Democrats and Republicans have a monopoly on who can run for office in America:
“Dem Party Turns On Anti-War Democratic Primary Winner”
“In the past, MIT graduate and anti-war activist Geoff Young has run for office as a Democrat, a Republican and a Green, all to no avail. He is, in fact, hostile to all major parties but this year managed to win the Democratic nomination in Kentucky’s 6th Congressional district, upon which the state party declared that they would not be supporting his run. In this interview with Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, he describes his fiercely anti-war, anti-duopoly and anti-establishment views.”

Not necessarily a good thing:
“Looking to diversify your portfolio? Create your free account to make passive investments in farmland, one of America's most attractive asset classes over the last 30 years.”

Government approved price gouging of the Working Class:

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.”

“Leave the leaves
The decomposition of fallen leaves returns nutrients to the soil, it’s part of the vital ecological cycle that sustains both garden and woodland environments.
Organisms that break down the leaves, like fungi, insects, and other arthropods form a complex and vibrant food web, which are a food source for birds!”

They don’t govern for the working class at all. It’s just one big grift:
“Federal Officials Trade Stock in Companies Their Agencies Oversee”
“Hidden records show thousands of senior executive branch employees owned shares of companies whose fates were directly affected by their employers’ actions, a Wall Street Journal investigation found.”

The United States owes the rest of the world Climate Reparations and the Western Rich should, without limit, be the ones who pay for it. They benefited from cheap energy and they are a the class responsible for most of the Green House Gas emissions.
Howard Beckett:
“In 2021, Superyacht sales surged 77% and in 2022 sales are 68% above a 13-year average.
There is no cost of living crisis for the super rich.
We need a proper luxury tax.”

“Deep inside the food industry’s research laboratories, scientists not only exploit food additives, but they also harness the latest brain science and cutting-edge technology to keep us wanting “just one more.””

“Not long after the rollout of coronavirus vaccines, women around the country began posting on social media about what they believed was a strange side effect: changes to their periods.:”
“Women said coronavirus shots affect periods. New study shows they’re right.”

John-Alex Pilling:
“Cognition is the mental transformation of sensory input into knowledge about the environment and the flexible application of this knowledge. While the term cognition refers to the process of doing this, intelligence refers more to the ability to do it successfully. The bat works with plenty of sensory input, even if it remains alien to us. Its auditory cortex evaluates sounds bouncing off objects, then uses this information to calculate its distance to the target as well as the target’s movement and speed. As if this weren’t complex enough, the bat also corrects for its own flight path and distinguishes the echoes of its own vocalizations from those of nearby bats: a form of self-recognition. When insects evolved hearing in order to evade bat detection, some bats responded with “stealth” vocalizations below the hearing level of their prey. What we have here is a most sophisticated information-processing system backed by a specialized brain that turns echoes into precise perception. —Frans de Waal, Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?”

“When someone says “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas”, remember, they’re not doing it because of political correctness. They do it out of respect. Because from the 20th of November to January 24th, there’s at least 14 different religious holidays. So, when someone says Happy Holidays to you, thank them. Because they don’t know what you believe in. It’s called respect. Not a war on Christmas.”
