Millions of people stopped receiving taxpayer-funded food, and grocery prices dropped
Now imagine what would happen if they stopped tax-payer funded healthcare, housing, college...
People forget that Gov DeSantis beat this guy in 2018 by less than 0.5%.
He would’ve been our Governor during Covid, kept us locked down, and the country would’ve never been the same.
The reason he almost won was b/c deep blue Broward County kept “finding” votes weeks after the election.
The vote fraud was stopped, DeSantis cleaned up our elections, and he won by almost 20% in 2022.
It’s amazing what happens when election fraud is cleaned up.
One of the most misunderstood facts is that the US was founded with abundance, whereas it was in fact built from scratch.
At the time of founding, Britain was the greatest nation governing the Seven Seas, while China was at its height with total land dominance in the East under the Qianlong Emperor.
The usable land of the US at founding was much smaller than that of either nation. The 13 colonies spanned 430K square miles, while Britain governed 2.5M square miles and China owned 5M square miles of territory.
The trade and economic volume of the 13 colonies was minuscule, consisting mostly of raw materials that barely registered on the charts. Combined, the 13 colonies produced $4B GDP, while Britain made $350B and China $2.5T in today’s dollars.
In other words, the 13 colonies were less than 0.2% of the world economy and much smaller than that of many African nations today.
The wealth of the US was not inherited but earned through survival and competition against stronger nations. Most people who came here brought nothing but empty hands yet built an empire from the ground.
This is something that people who inherit great resources from parents and ancestors cannot understand—like most nations in Europe and Asia, where wealth was dominated by inheritance, not earned. They mistakenly believe what we have now is a privilege. The trees we enjoy today were planted and nourished with sweat and blood by previous generations so that we could cut the wood for warmth.
Be a tree planter, not a wood chopper. Plant your tree today. 🌱
These people can't just say Happy Independence Day. They always have to add some bullshit qualifier like "we're not perfect" nigga shut the fuck up and enjoy the fireworks.
This Country gave you and your family the opportunity of a lifetime and you dump all over it! We are the richest and freest country in the world and it can get even better, but not through Communism. Your experiment will fail and like the Gov already did, the US will bail NYC out
There have been 4 major revolutions in the past 250 years: American, French, Russian, and Chinese. Only one led to individual rights and prosperity. The others led to mass death and tyranny. The US revolution was unique because it said two things: 1. Our rights come from God not from the govt. 2. Humans are power -hungry so we need to limit govt power. So the next time someone attacks the nation of one revolution that succeeded and recycles the the idea of those that miserably failed, you can ask them: are you ignorant, or malicious?
To the Americans:
I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.
And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:
You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.
This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.
Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.
This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.
But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.
This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.
And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:
Thank God for the United States.
Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.
Long may your admirable country dominate the world.
Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.
May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.
Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.
Thank God for the USA.
Happy 250th.

Hey ESPN,
Any reason you post about Muslims praying but you won’t post a SINGLE time about the USMNT praying after every match?
I’m sure it’s not because of an agenda or anything... Probably just a mistake, right?
