Well, they're cutting on personel to invest in the F-35's. Why do we need them? Publically, they're for air defence (a role the F-35 is not really exellent in compared to cheaper and in many cases sturdier alternatives). But in reality, we still have 10 nuclear bombs only 2 planes can carry. The F-16 (which we have now) and the F-35 (which our government wants to purchase).

Man, I had no idea Belgium had nukes! How did you guys even get them?

lol they don't. He's just lying lol

I think it could be some kind of a Reich syndrome.

Of course they did! But heavan forbid you act as if Russia rigged the election, when they didn't. American's had a choice for who to vote for.

And they voted for Clinton.

Jesus christ...

There is an electoral college! Its so that one state doesn't decide the election!!!! 30 STATES voted for Trump, and only 20 voted for Clinton. America doesn't decide as a whole country! Each state decides so its more fair and allows everyone to be recognized. Otherwise all campaigns would be in big cities like NYC and LA.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Nice speech, blaming the world for US' problems, taking their jobs, stealing their wealth, getting rich off the backs of Americans. No more! He's going to take it all back. Blame the establishment for all other internal problems and instead ask what your country can do for you. Patriotism and Protectionism, but he'll determine the course of the world as well.

I swear I saw Bush chuckling, good luck with that, at some point during the speech about building roads and bridges.

Btw how religious in the USA? How many blessings did he receive during all that?

Well I'm sure those trade deals involved some of those problems. I mean trade deals have decimated OUR economy as well, with our manufacturing leaving, and with low wage mcjobs replacing good earning ones. At least America has someone to stand up for them, the same can't be said for Canada.

I'm no expert on trade deals, yet claiming it's a oneway street doesn't fly with me. How can the trade deal between USA and Canada decimate both our economies... Canada invested too much in tar sands thinking peak oil had already been reached.

But he's right in one thing, if you want to support your own economy, buy local. Yet what is he going to do so people can afford to buy locally made products. Simply making foreign made products more expensive isn't going to make locally made goods more competitive. It's funny, what he wants is basically the same as raising tax. Buy local, hire local, or pay more, and thus generate more tax. It leads to the same effect, reduce your addictive consumer lifestyle and lower purchasing power. We'll see if protectionism can work this time.

Welp, let's give this guy a chance then. I FULLY agree that washington is a piece of shit on both sides. So if he can try to sever the power from them and give it back to the people, that'd be pretty impressive, but it's not going to take 4 years

He has already appointed millionaires and billionaires that donated money to him during his campaign. That after he proudly proclaimed that he is rich enough to pay for his own campaign. That actually meant paying for a portion of it, and still taking bribes from the oil companies, etc, that he now invites into his administration.

Several people he has appointed to their respective department have no experience in that field, fail to answer basic questions during their congressional hearings about their own departments, and several of them seem to want to get rid of the department they are in charge of.

Etc.

It sounds so bizarre you'd think this is a comic book story.

Holy fucking shit. I'm just trying to be optimisic though. It does sound like a comic book story though. What was this from though was it Batman? I'm not good with films these days XD.

Would you be surprised if I told you we got them from the USA? ;)



So funny, "Bikers for Trump" who swore to be a "wall of meat" to protect against protestors are there. One of them just told NBC News that he can't be there protesting because he has a job. I'm like, "Wait? Aren't you off of work and now there just like these protestors?" So... yeah... lol

Belgium has a defence budget of 1.5% of the GDP now (recently up from 0.9%). But they pulled the budget up to buy F-35's. American airplanes...

I'd rather have them stick to 1% of the GDP and invest more of the budget in the military personal rather in expensive toys.

I would think that in order for a country to have any kind of reliable defense, they'd need a decent balance between personel and equipment, right?

Then again, what use does Belgium have for f-35's?

Used for recon flights above the baltic states/isis.






stay classy left. 

really classy.

On a lighter note lmao ahh dubya, classic.  

 

Seriously dying loughing.
