C, Blathin and I I'm sure would have been killed long ago. Hahaha. And on top of that, my gosh C..a very sinister, a very scary possible. You get my drift C. I hope Blathin does.
Blathin NO! NOT only for a night. They're given a place to live, free. But they're manipulated. The organization I told you give them drugs to do what they do for this corrupt organization.
I got news for you. Elon Musk says in five years, we'll be almost all AI. Now read the scientific claim of AI engineers other than Musk, they say about 25 years more. Either way, the alternative factor that is brought by this phenomenal change is a s game changer.
It makes you think doesn't it?
And yes read my post about what can we do or hope for?
Without the Philippines holding the Japanese for three years for US to recover, the Allied power would have lost the war. Think what would have happened then. No I am not apologizing for the brutal and heinous crimes committed by the Japanese. Read why the Nuclear bomb helped in ending the war.
Absolutely. History shows, had the Nuclear bomb not used, Japan would have killed us all, in Asia. Read how they were so barbaric in killing and torturing us. They raised the baby in the air, kill them by their bayonets coming down in front of the parents and family. My uncles were killed this way according to my grandmother. Imagine that.
Nuclear yes, it ended the war. It made hirohito surrender.
Check this out, if the universe is 8 billion years old and earth is 4 billion according to science, wouldn't you think of possibilities of so many civilizations to have rose and fell? I do. Same story, start like the stone age, fast forward, 5000, 10,000 years, voila, one button, kabooom. Start again. We're just here for so short a time Bod.
.Bid, I put exactly your words in one of my threads and blogs. I called it, THE OXYMORON WE'RE in. Qe created a deterrence called the Nuke for prevention of such a catastrophic destruction, and yet it's the very creation that can wipe all of humanity. Listen to the speech of Trump on Talk TV, interview actually.
"Why did US freeze Afghan money? Why were the Afghan central bank's assets frozen? Afghanistan's central bank holdings in the US were frozen in August after the fall of Kabul to the Taliban. The Taliban's rapid takeover of Afghanistan came after the chaotic US and NATO withdrawal from the country after nearly 20 years.Feb 11, 2022"
"Germany's got its gold back. The country's central bank announced Wednesday it has completed a program to repatriate gold bars worth nearly $31 billion from storage locations in New York and Paris. Germany has been bringing gold home to Frankfurt from the two cities since 2013.Aug 23, 2017"
Blathin this is for your review. Did England return theirs? To Germany I mean?
In 1914 a war began, a million soldiers lent a hand, Weren't many planes to give support, hand to hand was the way they fought. Young men were called up for the cause, for king and country and the cross, In their naivete they thought it was for glory, so they'd been taught. In 1939 once again there came the sound of marching men, Occupying European land, all the way to North French sands, But, in the final year of that war, two big bangs settled the score, Against Japan, who'd joined the fight, the rising sun didn't look so bright. Since that day it's been stalemate, everyone's scared to obliterate, So it seems for peace we can thank the bomb, so I say thank Christ for the bomb (3) Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: T. Mcphee
Blathin I'm sorry to disappoint you but here's a slice of the truth. All homeless are given aids and shelter. As long as they are registered in the social services. Here's what happens, some organizations, take advantage of these people and collect all their monies and send them to all the corners to actually beg. Now it's probably not true to all but it was generally addressed how these people are living like this?
There's also a side of the story that those who run the social services has self defeated their function by creating this mess to be bigger so that their budgets rise up to the ying yeng. Never mind that money and resources are allocated for these services.
My observation is this, part of what to blame are drugs and laziness. They pander in the corners asking for jobs. I stopped once or twice to provide them jobs (my small business is in construction and repair), guess what they do? Refuse to. We pay a minimum of 25 bucks an hour. With record of experience, we pay aup to 40 bucks an hour.
Now it's so complex and believe me, if we can take care of 18,000 illegal immigrants coming daily, this homelessness shouldn't be a problem.
Oh there's silence. Sure we wish there's no war. I get it. So do I. I guess we will have to wait for either the complete take over of AI, and or the complete destruction of earth again and again. Until then, I am not sure if the promise of religion specially Christianity, that the second coming will be the complete redemption of man. Paradise. No more hate, no more killing. Just Paradise. I can only hope.
Tes, here's a run down on weather Nane. November to March a most agreeable weather, from 55to 75. Google Baguio City. Shangri-la of the Philippines. I graduated there and taught in the university as soon as I graduated in 1974. I'm from the North. Luzon, Laoag City, Google it, too. Beautiful.
The rest of the months April to October is very hot. Now here's the best part, a thousand dollar a month makes a family of five live like very comfortable at least for me. My daughter who is a nurse here in the US, very young, only 45 years old but her husband 55, worked in the Union for 33,years. Ver happy they decided to retire without waiting for my daughter's retirement age. They are so happy. Paid an SUV brand new cash. No mortgage in their house and just go from one resort to another. I am so happy for them Name. If they'd have stayed in California, they'd be driving an old car and their house mortgage would have made them unable to travel even with my son in law's retirement from the union.
Yes, 6 months preferably in winter for Philippines and either travel as I have been doing or simply stay two months each to my children, who are so happy for me to do. I have a dual citizenship so don't get taxed so much in my purchases if any in the Philippines.
My oldest daughter believe it or not already retired there. Her husband and my daughter sold their house in Vallejo California, and bought a big one twice the size of their US home and paid a fraction of it in PI. Dollar ratio is good for us Name. If I live here without extra part time job, it'd be not as financially comfortable. I plan to join them there. All I need is improve our family home in PI.
He was a very smart and logical person and a very wonderful father, but yes, it was liberating to be alone. Making a huge mistake is hurting but even worse when you have someone to explain to. The pain and guilt is worse. Now if I make a mistake, (I try not, too) I learn and move on. Not as bad as that particular case. It was a global meltdown Name. I found out after about 8 months. I was one of those affected so badly. In March of 2006, we bought a big house for our growing children, we sold a house in 2003 with a whopping 300k profit bought another one in 2006, my gosh comes 2007, the price went down and can't even sell for what we paid for.
Anyways yes, ever since life was never the same. But I am so happy, that's for sure. Now retired and don't even own a property here anymore. I bought a land and a house in the Philippines but that's it. I can buy here again but it means I am going back to a daily grind. Nah, my children are happy for me to live with each of them anytime I want. My apartment is comfortable and rent is very comfortable.
Yes, I divorced him not because we weren't solid and happy. After we lost two houses in the Northbay and another one in Bakersfield during the meltdown, I've been disillusioned. My fault, I controlled (he let me), our investment for early retirement and lost it all in 2007 meltdown. He's asked me to marry him again and again. My children, in their thirties and older even asked me for their dad, but I told them I'm never going to change my status again.
Yes, he was controlling but had also a lot of good traits.
My gosh, my nemesis, control hahaha I guess that's why after being married (quite good really), for 28 years, father of my three children, I chose to be single because of that. He was pure Irish by the way. His parents are from Dublin.
I hope you don't misjudge these kind of trait, though. Elon Musk is mistaken to be one and I don't think he is. Arrogance and display of knowing too much even if it's not true is a fraud to me. If I am accused of that kind of demeanor, I either shrug my shoulder but if credibility is needed then I'd not hesitate to prove it.
RE: What will happen with the homeless in USA?
You're wrong again Blathin, all of the G5 has nuclear powers that kill us all.Past tense, the US used (Japan) to end WW2.
Now think of this. If not a single country heeds the US protocol in arms race, where do you think we are now?
Russia has Sarnat, supposedly the most potent today, NK gas another powerful one, India, China. My gosh, Blathin, please know where this will end.
