President Trump’s tariffs are a further assault on the 97% of United States (US) employees whose wages have not increased since the 1980’s. Walmart has decided to export its operations abroad in order to mitigate the damage to its profits caused by these tariffs. Please click on this link for more: https://youtu.be/JjUvyHsy1wM
This video doesn’t address the real problem in the US. The real problem is that the US is not the champion of democracy as it proclaims. On the contrary, only 43% of US citizens are satisfied with their government!
While 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are Americans, 40 million Americans live in poverty, and 201 million more live from paycheck to paycheck.
Contrast that with the People’s Republic of China that eradicated poverty in 2020, despite having 4 times the US’ population. Over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their government, without boasting to be champions of anything.
Further evidence of plutocracy is the fact that the US has consistently refused to comply with 42 United Nations’ (UN) resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. 6 million Puerto Ricans have abandoned their national territory in the meantime (gentrification), and half of the 3 million people in Puerto Rico live in poverty too! The UN’s Puerto Rico decolonization hearing this year will be on Monday, June 16, 2025.
Walmart moving abroad only adds to the evidence that the US Empire is collapsing.
Walmart further signals the US Empire’s collapse.
