Politics & Religion!Human beings are flawed by self-interest, so anyone can be manipulated by others who can control their circumstance. Any government is only as good as its leadership but no politician is immune from being manipulated. Every government lies, but when they do they are not working for you, they working for themselves and/or Big Bro. Religion is just a scam to pacify the masses. The promise of eventual paradise in the next life enamours those living in abject poverty, enriches the clergy until their demise without any liability. Our system has been corrupted by religious influence and political corruption for so long it can not last too much longer. We have lived too long at the expense of the rest of the world. Our government creates money out of thin air, gives it to the central bank to distribute to local banks who lend it to us to pay interest on phoney money. The only reason it has value is because it is pegged against a even bigger scam, the USD. No amount of new technology is going prevent some period of equalization. Our money is over-valued, our labor & services are over-priced, & our politicians are controlled by the US. The US controls our economy & our resources for their own benefit. Alignment with rising economies might have helped but Trudeau isn’t helping us, he's isolating us. Hopefully, they won’t hold grudges, if new leadership wins the next election. I can’t see how Trudeau can get re-elected without a war or election fraud. We are living in very troubled times.
