Despite the thicket of regulations and choking corporate tax rates that were once the envy of the world, the good old U.S. of A. somehow keeps managing to not only stave off international economic competition — we’re actually pulling away and widening our lead. How do we do it?

Yes, I can’t get the previous two shows.
But…Thanks Bill, it is truly important to remember how fortunate we are to live in the US.

Unrelated to the program, but rumble refused to connect. I went to rumble
directly and was logged on with no problem. Anyone else experiencing this
problem?

Yes, but I just clicked on the thumbnail along the right side, that lists all the shows. It pulls up right away.

Along the lines of, to paraphrase, so many people with so much money, looking for ways to place it, Columbia came to mind. Me and the missus are “Birders”. We hire guides and go to specialized “Birding hotels” in countries throughout Central and South America. You drive in your van with other birders and go through cities you’ve never heard of high in the Andes that have millions of people. In the not-so-distant past, a huge number of them awakened to a life related to getting illicit drugs to America. Of course it pales in comparison economically, but “Bird tourism”… Read more »

Not only do we have people looking to give away money, we made it part of our entertainment (Shark Tank) and it did well enough that at least in my nearest large city, they had a smaller scale show that was on less often, but did the same thing… richer people in the city bringing in people to pitch ideas for investment in local businesses.

We have a local version (not televised) in my little town. People can come make a pitch quarterly for funding their idea.

you guys are becoming cheerleaders. Trump said MAG”A”, America has always been great but trump is kissing Putins ass at the cost of freedom in Ukraine. how long do you think America will be able to continue?
have you seen that the EU is sanctioning Trump and his inside circle in response to trumps threats?

Bill, Steve and Scott are not the cheerleaders here. Because everything they said is truth and they brought the receipts to back up those facts. Which I notice you have neither the grounds nor the wit to dispute. If there’s a cheerleader here it’s YOU, you are cheerleading the destruction of the United States of America. Which becomes more obvious every time you post something. In fact, as time has gone on and I see more and more of your nonsense it is clear that your agenda is pretty much the destruction of everything. Accepted and proven theology that has… Read more »

Bill’s comment about how the poor in the US live compared to middle class in EU is quite interesting. Our little Burg is experiencing a “housing” boom. In quotes as the local gov’t incentives have gone to those building apartment complexes, not housing. Ronette is of the age where she is in an apartment with a roommate, as well all did at that age. Paying you own rent and utilities is telling. She was complaining about the amount of her rent one evening while we were out and I asked her some leading questions. Have you seen photo of your… Read more »

“Damn – This is almost ACTS length!!” … and I’d like to think that I had something to do with people realizing that a complex thought and convincing argument cannot be well served in a 256 character “tweet”. I don’t know when it happened exactly, I can’t put my finger on the day and year but somewhere around the time that Twitter came along all-of-a-sudden if you had something to say and said it, and took more than a brief paragraph to say it, you were accused of “ranting”. Screw that. Say what you want to say and take as… Read more »

I ALWAYS read anything you post. If you were wondering now you don’t need to anymore.

Bill did a video several years ago along those lines.

An Egyptian pharaoh, master of all he sees, goes into a 7-11 convenience store.

Dozens of things and features in that small space, available to almost any American regardless of economic status, that he couldn’t even imagine.

Very enlightening.

Oh come now gentlemen. Canada is not America’s hat. As the the chaps at the Babylon Bee have taught us, Canada is now Gay North Dakota.

That should be Nihilistic Gay North Dakota, since the rampant promotion of abortion and doctor-assisted suicide mandates that are imposed by Ontario upon the nation’s physicians. [1][3] Canada leads the way to self-imposed national suicide with its 76,475 MAID deaths since the introduction of legislation in 2016. [2]
