Is America great again daddy?

Was it ever? I admit my contemporary US education was crafted to make me a good, dutiful citizen. However even it couldn't make the shit we've done throughout our history seem great. Nor could it identify a period of time as an era of "our greatness".

We have always been either stealing our neighbors stuff. Or shitting on what little we left them with, telling them they should be thankful for the privilege of having to clean it up.

This comes to mind whenever I hear someone say that the US is the greatest country in the world.

Presumably the whole network will feel the pinch, because cities paying the tariff directly will try to by from neighbouring grids.

yeah the messaging is just aweful though. Unfortunately most of the states that border canada are more liberal.
