Americans consume like no other nation

Is this a great country or what. But of course the Boston Globe doesn't like that, especially when evil republicans are in charge. /s

Because we invent, create, build, make, devise and produce like no other nation. And we have the money, and the power. Shut up and move to France, you apologetic Nancy-boy.

We do consume too much so I recommend that we no longer buy newspapers. How many forests can we save if we all stop buying the Boston Globe, NYT, etc.

We consume like no other nation, but we also produce like no other nation.

Sometimes I almost find myself wishing that the USSR still existed so the US wasn't the "lone superpower" and some of these whining, hand-wringing whackos would get off America's back. It's lonely at the top, but we're at the top for a bunch of good reasons.

I mean, can't people give it a rest? Doesn't anyone subscribe to the old adage "live and let live" anymore? People just have too much time on their hands to worry about senseless crap.
