It's almost funny watching the USA trying to remain a world leader while cutting its investments in absolutely everything: healthcare, education, energy generation and distribution, welfare, science, roads, electricity, railways, air traffic control, sanitation, everything that's needed for a basic quality of life and to be even running in the same race as other countries. The USA seems to think it can get by with just the police and military. It won't work.

I mean... In a way, good? The "AI" bubble has to burst eventually, sooner would be better than later

• US government wants more AI/data centres
• US government doesn't want more renewable energy
• US government wants expensive oil, gas and coal plants to keep running or get built
• US government give no shits about water conservation or anything else environment related
• US government raises taxes on any international inputs to domestic production, putting domestic industry at disadvantage
• US government cuts education, climate response and health funding for future labour resilience

This is definitely a strategy that will pan out for the US...

The world kept moving while American cut off its own legs to run with it.

Friendly reminder, the US people, in majority, are not, in fact, the US. No one asked me my opinion about shit. I didn't vote on any of this. Please be sure to separate the two. We, the majority, don't want these failures. We do not vote, we pick shit teams we are also not members of.
