Is it because the USA has such powerful weapons why so may of its
citizens all seem so entitled?
This pervasive air of entitlement is constantly being
massaged by the media too!
Yes, I get it, fentanyl overdose kills around 100,000
Americans each year.
But who is it that force feeds drugs to the American
people?
I recall with great resentment the terrible days in my
little island of Jamaica, when DEA agents would arrive in their planes and
spray ganja (marijuana) fields, destroying farmer's vegetable and other crops
in the process.
For decades, some people in Jamaica had been enjoying their ganja and it never killed anyone.
Then the Americans discovered it and it
became a problem FOR JAMAICA!
Now all over the world, the harmlessness of ganja is
being recognized and its use is even being legitimized in state after state in
the USA.
Then they took on the Colombians.
Colombian peasants had been chewing their cocoa
leaves for decades, then someone discovered that it could be chemically altered
to give young people a high.
Americans immediately took to it and it suddenly it
became an international problem and they were all over Colombia spraying
deadly herbicides.
Now, the powerful USA is now contemplating….multiple
bills to designate Mexican cartels as “foreign terrorist organizations”
in order to broaden the actions that can be used against them."
That sounds ominous and naturally, President Lopez
Obrador is not amused!
(Incidentally, Mexico is the USA's most important trading
partner.)
Look at this crazy bill introduced by Texas Republican
Rep. Dan Crenshaw, which would give authorization for the use of military force
against Mexican cartels, similar to those approved for Iraq and Afghanistan!
Are these people crazy.
They must be, for if you keep doing the same thing
over and over again and expecting different results, you must be!
When is the USA going to recognize that it is, its people’s insatiable demand for mind-altering drugs which is the problem,
so they need to deal with that, instead of using their powerful military, DEA
etc to terrorize militarily weaker nations?
I forgot, they are all powerful so they
are entitled to demand that weaker nations solve their problems!
As a matter of fact, other nations including China and
Russia have superior weapons, but you don’t see them threatening others because
of problems they have at home with their citizens' crazy desires!
Yes, they flex their muscles for territorial reasons and most people are appalled at these actions. So, when they do, the USA and the rest of the world usually join in the condemnation.
However, the USA sees nothing wrong when they flex their well-armed
muscles because of their own idiosyncrasies.
The insatiable demand for mind altering drugs is a
unique American problem as is this entitlement they hold so
dear.
American politicians and media need to recognize this
and stop driving the public into a frenzy on the basis that other nations are
supposed to solve their problems.
With their overabundance of serial killers, mass
murderers and generation after generation of young people always wanting to
have some new mind-altering drug, the USA is clearly a very dysfunctional
society.
However, the age of entitlement is over.
They need to deal with their internal shortcomings rather
than continuing to terrorize their poorly armed neighbors for the things their
citizens crave.
