The majority of countries are paying much more for gasoline that we are--
For what it’s worth, the EIA estimates gas prices will average $3.57 a gallon in 2023.

President Trump to attend the World Economic Forum
"Davos Man" is a neologism referring to the global elite of wealthy (predominantly) men, whose members view themselves as completely "international." [Wikipedia]
"Globalization is a phenomenon driven by technology and the movement of ideas, people, and goods. Globalism is an ideology that prioritizes the neoliberal global order over national interests. Nobody can deny that we are living in a globalized world. But whether all of our policies should be “globalist” is highly debatable," says the World Economic Forum's web page.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that the president was looking forward to attending the gathering of world leaders and business executives.
“The President welcomes opportunities to advance his America First agenda with world leaders,” Ms. Sanders said. “At this year’s World Economic Forum, the president looks forward to promoting his policies to strengthen American businesses, American industries and American workers.”
Whereas the World Economic forum is "committed to improving the State of the World," President Trump's presence should be an interesting encounter for all the elites who will be attending considering President Trump's attitude of Draining the Swamp and America First.

World Poverty Rates
Comment Up
It illustrates "one of the most remarkable achievements in human history – the 80 per cent reduction in world poverty in only 36 years, from 26.8 per cent of the world’s population living on $1 or less (in 1987 dollars) in 1970 to only 5.4 per cent in 2006." Source: Click here

China--why aren't we concerned?
Comment Up
What do you think of when you think of China? Lots of people? Coolie wages? A China doll? China is the world's second largest economy with growth rates of 10% a year over the past 30 years. What's going on with China? And what's going on with the United States when it comes to them? They export 2.021 trillion dollars of goods every year and the U.S. is the main export for them. They are the largest foreign holder of U.S. debt which owns more about $1.2 trillion in bills, notes and bonds, according to the Treasury. It has to make you wonder and perhaps it should make you worry.
Obama decided to allow China, a country with over 1.35 billion people and the 2nd largest country by land area, to take over strategic drilling interests in the Gulf of Mexico in a move that will bring riches to several of the president’s financial supporters, according to claims made in a lawsuit. Read more... about it at Judicial Watch. Obama's top bundlers, you know, that dreaded 1% he is so phony about, will make a fortune on this deal. China has been buying up oversees rivals since 2009 and has spent 92 billion buying already discovered reserves and even entire groups such as Canada’s Nexen.
According to The New York Times who quoted the International Energy Agency, the United States will overtake Saudi Arabia as the world’s leading oil producer by about 2017 and will become a net oil exporter by 2030.
Per CNN, and its article, Is China our new Enemy, "without a major public debate of the kind we have about raising taxes, or a congressional vote, the U.S. government is moving slowly but surely toward characterizing China as an aggressive superpower and is preparing for war, should it become necessary."
Because of an exchange rate that is partially set to be always priced lower than the dollar, last year the U.S. trade deficit with China was $315 billion, higher than any previous year. Donald Trump is always alerting us to this and "libs" aren't listening.
It seems that we are allowing China to build up their economy at our expense. Why? American innovation has always been part of our DNA but even China is stealing our technology and hacking into our systems. We used to be number one in innovation but we are losing ground. China is taking the lead and it is predicted that they will be ahead in two to four years.

Stand-Up Guys
Comment Up
Britain being ruled by Political Correctness. The name of this article should be change to political "stupidness."
The entire world is falling apart, economies are collapsing and Muslims are reproducing at a number that will never be surpassed. People all of a sudden are afraid of their own shadow. Few people stand up for what they believe anymore. You can see it on blogs when comments are primarily by anonymous posters. They are afraid of their own shadow and consequently when you get elected officials like Allen West who is the most stand-up guy around, he "takes a bullet" by left-wing extremists.
Let's get more politically incorrect people to tell the truth and show us the way.

World Economy falling down a cliff
Comment Up
The window of opportunity offered by US recovery is slamming shut again. America’s dire jobs data for May - and the downward revision for April - confirm the fears of cycle specialists that the US economy has slipped below stall speed. America risks tanking back into recession as the "fiscal cliff" approaches late this year, unless the Fed comes to the rescue again soon.
