CRYING WOLF

 

CRYING WOLF

 

The world’s movers and shakers are once more gathering in Davos, Switzerland, congratulating each other on a 20 percent increase in wealth for the Super Rich, checking up on their accounts in Zurich while there, and frustrated with an American president who is upsetting their global agenda.  Geo-political threats, hailing not from the usual hot spots, but from an America that is making headlines with bellicose threats and insinuations that Russia and China are eyeing the artic region for a potential invasion.  Excuse me!  The artic!




Who in his right mind would seek access to the Americas through the frozen North?  All that is there is thousands of square miles of cold, snow and ice.  There is nothing worthwhile pursuing; no roads, no harbors, no towns, no industry, no resources.  No infrastructure of any kind and those that poor Canadians did start (Military installations and a harbor), soon fizzled out and were abandoned.  Thousands of kilometers away from any kind of civilization and creature comforts.  Who in his right mind would even consider this a viable option?  Trying to sell this as a viable threat makes as much sense as selling tanning beds to desert dwellers.   They need those extra UV rays like an extra hole in the head.

From deporting Mexican illegals, to regime change in Venezuela, bombing Syria, Somalia and Iran, wanting to take over Greenland (part of the NATO alliance and a supposed friend), hinting that Canada should be annexed as the 51st state, or the 52nd if Greenland is the first to fall, dropping tariff bombs as threats to anyone daring to oppose Donald and America’s aspirations to expand their security to secure that much anticipated golden dome missile defense system (profits equally shared between Elon and Donald), a scheme that makes as much sense as the one proposed by Ronald Reagan with a Star Wars theme when Ronald occupied the Oval Office. (Donald likes gold, his favorite color).  Reagan liked candies.  Well, you can see why Donald was upset when he didn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize.  Although his definition of peace doesn’t coincide with mine.  Does it with yours? 

You have to realize that Donald, before he occupied the White House, didn’t even know that Greenland existed.  He probably thought that it was the name of a golf course and why didn’t he think of it first.  It’s got a nice ring to it.  The Trump Greenland resort and golf course.  No, Trump and company are desperate to keep sowing the seeds of discord, distraction and disruption.  The desperation that emanates from the mouths of Trump and his merry band of conspirators and fellow thugs is the same that flows from leaders around the world, but not as vociferous and belligerent.  America is keeping its bureaucracy afloat on a sea of red ink and they’re anxiously looking for ways to shore up some extra cash.  All nations are broke by the way!  Too many people are dependent on government services and jobs and the consumer and consumption markets can’t keep up with the taxation demands required to keep the show on the road and the train moving.

There most definitely are no security threats.  And there never have been.  The only threats issued and directed at the rest of the world emanate from the United States and the lunatic occupying the highest office in the land.  Not unlike his idol, Adolf Hitler, he is busy solidifying his grip on office to stay in power and he is bowling the opposition over like bowling pins.  He should have been locked up a long time ago and put behind bars.  Let’s keep our fingers crossed that nature will take its course and that stress or out of control cholesterol levels will do us a favor.

In Davos we have become a distraction because they are the architects of a system that only benefits a few deep pockets at the expense of the masses.  The bulk of us are straddled with bad debts, inflated property prices and crippling inflation.  When questionable leaders are trying to right a sinking ship we all have reason to be concerned.  Trump and his merry band of thieves are behaving like gangsters in a candy store robbery and they can’t believe their luck.  Nobody is doing anything and they’re getting away with it!

Personally I don’t want to pin a medal to Donald’s chest (the right kind hasn’t been invented yet, but give me time) but replace it instead with a firm boot to the ass.  It’s what he deserves and needs.
