  1. Thermodynamics.

    You're trying to freeze a cup of coffee with an ice cube, or make a pig from sausage or make oil from plastic.

  2. I can tell you why.

    There are three major political parties in the US: Democrats, Republicans, and Capitalists.

    The Capitalists are running the country. Guess who those stealthy bastards (and bitches) are?

    It's you and me. We're shareholders and, above all else; at the expense of all else, we want asymptotic sales in time increments of nanoseconds.

    SCOTUS, via Citizens United, supports the Capitalist party. Democrats and Republicans support the Capitalist party as do state governors.

    Hell, we want stocks to do well so much that we're selling off parts of America for the bucks.

    That's why.

  4. Human nature.

    It explains America's society.

    The European Invasion pitted iron age peoples against a stone age civilization.

    It's not the first invasion of all time.

    It's China's turn to grab the brass ring.

  5. Since you are not the author of my post, your dissection is moot.

    Your task is to either provide a valid refutation or ask me a question.

    China is knocking King America off the hill. America wants to be off the hill: no immigrants, no climate collaboration, anti-science, Islamophobia, anti-globalism, return to 19th century pollution levels ...
