    Tanks are mobile vehicles which launch large projectiles over relatively short distances.

    Personnel carriers are not remotely tank like.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

It's all been around for over a century, and it's never worked no matter how much you polish those turds.

    I have always gotten it. Been saying it.

    Prior to Reagan and JFK presidencies, Reagan was about slow process and JFK was about fast process. JFK had the imagination and we all did along with him and we got a man on the moon!

    Conservatives are about maintaining the status quo or slow progresses in areas such as economy, spending and technology.
    Liberals are about exploring, rapid progresses and such.

    Thus there is a balance between them as it was meant to be.

    But since JFK and Reagan (and Nixon too), America has been going down in a spiral to a shithole, then Trump and the GQP hammered a final nail in the coffin.

    So we are pretty much fucked.

    Right now there is no balance. Who is to be blamed for it?

    Every time a politician gets "imaginative" and/or "creative", it ends up costing Americans either freedom or money. And you should know, there's nothing new, cutting edge, "imaginative" and/or "creative" about communism, socialism, "democratic" socialism, or national socialism.

    Correct. We see that the GQP media is very "imaginative", "creative" and "liberal" with the "facts", causing further divisions and throwing everything off balance.

    I think, if you are even serious, are beginning to see it. We see it clearly and it seems hopeless.

    Supporting immorality in the name of stability is wrong. It's unChristian.

    Do you believe all of your female relatives should be denied the vote? The same equal rights you share? Or do you support the STABLE idea of keeping them as second class citizens, maintaining white males in charge "just like Jesus said"?<--- Jesus didn't. It was someone who never knew Jesus who wrote it and selected by men 300 years later to be in the Bible.

    Disagreed on fucked, but We, the People most certainly have problems to work out.

    Agreed on lack of balance. Blame the American people as a citizenry and culture. The United States is largely a victim of its own success. With success comes laziness and complacency. I blame ending the draft in 1973. Too many Americans have grown up fat, dumb and happy without a fucking clue about the world outside of their own. It's all about "Me". There was even a decade named after it and 1/6 was further proof of the narrow selfishness of Americans. If it was up to me, in order to vote, a person would have to do four years in the military or civilian service such as the Peace Corps. For satisfactory service, they'd get two years of college after service at selected schools. They'd have the option of completing college courses for free while in the service. Played correctly, they could have a four year degree by age 24....and be voting citizens.

    LOL. Agreed. Fox is very imaginative. I favor a law requiring "news" agencies not to put liars on air. Make those going on the air to take an oath that what they are saying is true or to clearly admit it's only their opinion and there are no facts to prove their statements or "theories".

    The situation isn't hopeless, but it's distressing to let the nutjobs be the loudest voices in the room. At some point, a majority of Americans will stand up and shout "Enough!" The recent Midterm vote was one indication We, the People, are nearing that point. A major White Nationalist terrorist attack would likely be a tipping point.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.

    I like your optimism. A subject of empty half/full half glass of water came up while I was talking to my mom. Made me think of something.

    I told her that the glass is always full of "water" and asked her to figure it out. She asked me if it was a metaphor or a riddle. I be like NOPE. It's scientific.


    I'll let you answer it.

    If you include water vapor then, yes, it's always full.

    Optimism isn't perfect, but it often produces better results than negativism. The whole Little Engine That Could motto is correct. A positive attitude helps produce success because it optimizes the individual. Positive people keep trying until they succeed. Negative people give up.

    What Is Positive Thinking?
    Research has found that positive thinking can aid in stress management and even plays an important role in your overall health and well-being.1 It can help combat feelings of low self-esteem, improve physical health, and help brighten your overall outlook on life...

    Positive thinking is linked to a wide range of health benefits, including:

    • Better stress management and coping skills
    • Enhanced psychological health
    • Greater resistance to the common cold
    • Increased physical well-being
    • Longer life span
    • Lower rates of depression
    • Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease-related death
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.
