The pendulum is not swinging back. The Dems have the same policies as the Repubs. It's a shell game. Better to plan on getting out before they start putting up the barbed wire and you get stuck inside. As noted in earlier responses, it is the 21st Century equivalent of the Roman Empire. "Those that do not learn from history..."
While that used to be true, I think many Americans are waking up. We realize we are living in a police state and abhor the international policies being pushed by the present and previous administrations. I'm afraid we can't do anything about it. Many of us are planning to get out as soon as we can and hopefully the whole thing will come crashing down. It is much too far gone for correction, better to let it die and start over. Sorry about that.
This has already been accomplished, with great success. Cuba. Check it out, I'm sure you will be on the next flight to Havana and living the good life...
Explaining the joke. HP was founded on one product. A bench DC power supply. They (H and P) came up with a clever use of a light bulb in their regulator circuit. The details escape me.
No. The first HP product was an audio oscillator (the 200A). Used to make the movie Fantasia. The light bulb was used for negative feedback, its resistance changing as the current changed.

Except democracy. You can't have too much democracy.
Except maybe the case of two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner...
Being "nice" to nations can do wonders. After all, we turned Japan, our mortal enemy in WW2... on whom we dropped two atomic weapons
So your definition of being "nice" to a country is to nuke them... Got it. The bombing begins in five minutes...
Except that doctors lawyers and engineers are licensed by a professional body, not by the government.
Not in the U.S.. My Professional Engineer license is issued by an agency of California state government...

airports are Federal property. That's why.
Incorrect. The vast majority of airports are city/county owned and operated. Some are even (gasp!) privately owned.
Because we all know that people in the EU, Canada, and the US are too stupid to make decisions about what they put in their bodies on their own...

In the UK, it is illegal to threaten to kill someone, except if you are a muslim imam preaching in a London mosque. There, fixed that for you.
