Moving To Switzerland, For the Sake of Guns, and Military Security, After Losing A War
A NEW REPORT has been released, by somebody or other, presumably competent and official, stating in no uncertain terms that the United States might possibly lose a war, should she be silly enough to participate in one, to either Russia or China, or both. It might have even been the beloved Pentagon saying this, since the Pentagon is likely to say anything, being a very loquacious edifice. No other countries were mentioned, if memory serves, but, aren't two enough? Certainly we the American electorate might hope that the list pf potential ass kickers of America does not extend any further, to, say, France, Germany, or England, or even, heaven forbid, to Sweden or Norway, or worse yet, to those impoverished nations all across the fruited African plain which Donald Trump rather unflatteringly referred to as "shit hole countries". Good Americans certainly hope, presumably, that the American military has not sunk to the bottom of the pack, number one hundred and eighty something in the world, below even Switzerland, which, as of the latest report, scarcely has any military at all, apart from its national requirement that everyone must keep a gun in the house. That in itself is sufficient to entice right wing republican NRA gun packing types to want to move to Switzerland, and, by all means, by our guest. Switzerland, it would seem, is an NRA members dream come true. But, I digress. With thousands of nuclear warheads, and a variety of means of delivering them to unfortunate enemies, and fourteen aircraft carriers, how on God's green Earth could the United States of Aggression ever hope to lose a war, other than the ones in Viet Nam, Afghanistan, and the War of 1812, which were flukes, and which we Americans would sure as hell win, if we could talk our conquerors into giving us a mulligan. Maybe it has something to do with the level of intelligence and training of our actual men and women in uniform, or the number of them available? Like P.T. Barnum said, "nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people, so, maybe its the lack of smarts thing which is our potential Achilles heal. I heard this shocking report on the CBS nightly news with some cat named "Glor", on Wednesday, November 14, in case you want to check it out. don't take my word for it.And, if all else fails and our beloved U.S. of A. actually does meet its match in a match against some shit hole country, at least we can take consolation in knowing that one can move to Switzerland, and at least have a gun around the house, if not much else, and, as a bonuds, some great mountain scenery and skiing to boot.
