The US Needs to Pick Itself up Before it Sinks

What we see in the above news is a pattern of ineffective, incompetent, and irrational leadership by what is known as the West. Fanatics and fringe groups dictate policy.

PBS: Pass Health Care to Boost US Lifespan; End School Lunch 'Crisis'

The PBS NewsHour Weekend show on Sunday pitched for more Euro-socialist-style government programs -- for the children in a school lunch “crisis,” and in the name of U.S. average life expectancy.
