Within the last week we have seen two contrasting sides of America. The first one deals with the George Floyd killing and the protests. Some are peaceful and legitimate. Many others are an excuse to vandalize, loot, burn businesses and a historic church, causing hundreds of millions in damages. Many anarchists hide from the police by blending in with the peaceful protesters and throw rocks, bottles, etc., at police and National Guard troops. Their goal seems to be to have fun, steal and burn and tear down America’s democracy and Constitution.
The second is what made America the greatest country in the world. SpaceX Falcon 9 lifted off from Cape Canaveral to connect with the International Space Station. For the first time, a private company sent astronauts to space.
Contrast the anarchists (tearing down) with SpaceX’s brilliant, dedicated workers coming up with the technology (best in the world) to better America so she will remain the greatest.
China is licking its chops waiting in the wings to be No. 1. Like most great civilizations that fell in the past, destruction mostly came from within. Remember the Trojan Horse.
