Started watching this short documentary every September 11th. 

Former Boston College lacrosse player Welles Crowther sacrificed himself to save over a dozen individuals on this tragic day. Highly recommend 🇺🇸

Craft beer prices increased dramatically over the 7-10 years preceding the pandemic.  The "hops shortage" was cited.  In reality it was mostly just AB-InBev buying up the global hops supply in an anti-competitive effort to drive small craft breweries out of business.  It didn't work, but it did significantly increase the cost of good beer.
Wouldn't that violate the Monoply policies the government levied at Rockerfeller back in the 1900s?

Sure.  It would if you could prove it in a court of law. 

All sorts of anti-competitive practices occur and never result in charges or convictions.

yeah the memes are funny cause they are true. I'm from South Florida where Haitians that are here legally will fucking grab wild ducks, geese, chickens, peacocks, and fucking butcher them and eat them.

people from 3rd world back water shit holes are going to act like: people from 3rd world back water shit holes. shouldn't be surprising to anyone. most countries, people, and cultures are vastly different to ours. they don't have the over abundance of well everything that we have here. we have it easy as hell compared to most other parts of the world.

illegal immigration is a massive problem but the truth of the matter that no one will ever talk about is that it has been caused in large part by the US gov't itself via things like NAFTA (which absolutely devastated small Mexican business owners and farmers) and by US intervention whether that was funding proxy wars to fight governments it did not like or directly overthrowing governments and staging coup after coup via the CIA and it's cut outs like the NED & USAID and of course placing harsh brutal economic sanctions on the countries the US government couldn't successfully subvert or overthrow in order to try and bend said country to it's knees and get the people their to overthrow the government that the US doesn't like- which by the way- NEVER works- all it does is make the people of that country more reliant on said government that the US is trying to subvert.

you want to stop massive waves of illegal immigration from people in god awful situations coming from failed states- probably a good idea to stop continually interferring and contributing to the failure of said failed states.

need a federal government that will actually bring those cases and try to enforce the anti-trust laws that are on the books. the lady Biden appointed to head FTC- Lina Khan- has done that a little bit- so of course Kahaha's largest donors are pressing her hard to fire Khan if she wins- and of course she will because Kahaha is just an empty vessel. A puppet on a string to be controlled.

would love to live in a world where those anti-competitive practices result in charges and convictions, but kind of hard to do that in todays climate where the US based mega multi-national corporations are the largest donors to political campaigns, provide significant portions of the funding for regulatory agencies via user fees and have completely captured the regulatory agencies.

nearly at the point where corporations and the state have basically merged....almost like there's a word for that....fasc..

Trump's inability to know or lack of care about what is actually real and what is a conservative twitter fever dream remains an issue.
