Our New America
To say that our systems are broken is an understatement... our systems are not broken they have changed... and what is rather sad is that those immigrants who are coming into this country for a better way of life and opportunities, are going to find just the opposite and wish they had never come.
The real citizens of America will soon be HATING all immigrants whether legal or not because they changed our country... you would hope that something like this would not happen but it will... and it will because there is a growing HATRED and RESENTMENT between whites and blacks that is escalating faster than it can be controlled.
Ironically, as racism gets worse, we pass laws to DEFUND THE POLICE... we will need them now more than ever... this too is what the immigrants will see and more than likely will become criminals just so they can pay their bills, since they will not be able to find jobs...
NO JOBS... Hell no, not with robots on the horizon... By 2030, robots like immigrants will be hated... except for the fully functional sex robots.
As we move into the 2024 election, the Democrats want to censor the Republicans and if they succeed, then this country will no longer be DEMOCRATIC as it will be governed by only one point of view like a dictatorship... Of course, the Democrats will still think that they are controlling a Democracy... but one that has limited freedoms... or dare should I say it, limited freedom of speech.
One voice is also being pushed by the media, big tech, colleges and universities along with high schools and elementary schools... these new ideas are also telling our children that being white is bad but being black is good... White are the oppressors... Is this true or because we represent 60% of the population...
Anyway, pushing this kind of an agenda is only going to put whites and blacks on opposite sides and perpetuate racism.
If you are an immigrant, legal or illegal, will you be seen as white or black? Or, somewhere in between?
With our new country and new inhabitants who will vote Democratic because the Dems like to give away our money... we will have a congress where the Republicans will NEVER have a majority in the House or Senate... This again will underscore the ONE PARTY rule that the Dems are currently seeking...
Does anyone see the danger in having no opposing views except those who are in power wanting more power.
History is record that America changed during the Biden Administration that was precipitated by the Trump Administration... from the standpoing that had there been no Trump administration there would have been no need for a Biden Administration... 2016-2024 will be called the CHANGE YEARS...
What the historians will also record is that China will take advantage of America's Political WEAKNESS, and will set the stage for an economic, military, educational, societal TAKE-OVER of the USA without firing a single weapon.
I am not WACKY... Democratic military leaders are already speaking that this is a real possibility... but the Dems are saying they are just TRUMP leftovers and should be ignored... China is our friend and wants to build a global world together... as long as China is in charge and not the US of A... not anymore... you screwed yourselves because of all your freedoms.
Sex Robots in 2022
In 2018, Business Leader investigated the fledgling world of sex robots. We discovered an industry very much in its infancy. Sex robots were a new and developing technology and the industry was just beginning to create a buzz on the international stage. We’ve now revisited the industry four years later to see how much it has changed.
During our original investigation, we discovered that there was a large demand for these machines and a desire to create the artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance the sex robot users’ experience. As is often the case in the area of technological innovation, the tech was new but developing at an extremely fast rate. Some experts predicted that the rate of technological innovation in the sector would soon outstrip the necessary regulations.
We also discovered widely varied opinions on the moral and ethical concerns surrounding sex robots and their usage.
Changing trends for changing times
The world has changed dramatically since 2018. Civil unrest in Hong Kong, war in Europe and undoubtedly the most life-changing event in living memory – the Covid pandemic. As the world locked down and streets became deserted, online activity skyrocketed.
Before the pandemic, less than half of Britons said they preferred online shopping to buying goods in a physical shop. According to a survey by Reuters, since the coronavirus pandemic, around 70% of Brits now state that they prefer making purchases online and through their mobile phones than in a physical store. This is a huge and dramatic shift in purchasing habits.
Part of this increase in online shopping was due to an increased demand for sex toys and sex tech. According to statistics from adult brand Womaniser, online sex toy sales in the UK grew by 13% during 2020. This trend has been seen around the globe. In Canada, a 135% increase in sex toy sales was recorded and in Italy, sales increased by 71% during the first lockdown.
A society in need of sex
During the pandemic, we were constantly advised to limit human contact. Single adults were isolated and banned from even the most innocent of human contact. Even some couples were separated by distance and unable to connect in the most natural human way. As traditional methods of dating and engaging in sexual relationships were curtailed, people sought different methods of stimulation.
Alongside the increase of sex toy sales, sites such as Onlyfans saw a huge increase in member registration. Some top performers on the site made eye-watering sums of money with some six-figure amounts being recorded in just one month. Female online content creators had found a way to interact with a sexually frustrated client base from the safety of their homes.
With so much time spent at home, many people began to search for new ways to fulfil their sexual desires in a safe way. According to Florida-based company Sex Doll Genie, demand for their products increased by over 51% during February and March 2020. They also state that interest in their products has come from male and female singles as well as both straight and same-sex couples. Sex Doll Genie is currently developing its own sex robot which will simulate breathing and have a robotic heartbeat.
How have sex robots advanced since 2018?
In 2018, sex robot company RealDoll released the first-ever sex robot that used AI and was capable of learning. Harmony was programmed to react to its users’ preferences through a purpose-built app which could be adjusted dependent on user requirements. In 2022, RealDoll still lead the sex robot industry for innovation and are planning to release their first-ever male sex robot this year.
CEO of RealDoll subdivision Realbotix states that developing the AI software for Henry, the new male sex robot was complex. Alongside creating a new gender for the robot, they also had to create a sexual preference in the profile which would appeal to the female market. Henry certainly seems set to appeal. According to early statements, Henry will be totally AI-activated and will feature a fully functioning penis, strong enough to lift a truck.
Other advancements in sex robot technology for both male and female sex robots have been developed by Realrobotix. The experts are looking at ways to incorporate self-heating, self-lubricating erogenous zones into the robots. Safety concerns, however, mean that the new generation of sex robots may not be ready for the general public for several years. Of course, when a robotic arm mechanism is strong enough to lift a car, when using it as a sexual partner, it must be rigorously tested for safety.
Lack of regulation poses a moral, psychological, and physical threat
According to a team of US researchers, sex robots with AI are being developed in a completely unregulated domain. They say that the latest sex robot technology is escaping regulation because agencies are embarrassed about conducting in-depth investigations.
Dr Christine Hendren of Duke University suggested that ‘some robots are programmed… to create a rape scenario.’ This is a hugely grey area, as one side of the argument suggests that this will prevent real-life rape, while opponents suggest it will affirm a rapists’ desires.
In Japan, the ultimate sexual taboo is already being addressed through sex robotics. One Japanese developer and self-confessed paedophile has developed a sex robot that looks like a child. He says that the device is a prophylactic which will help him to fulfil his sexual desires and prevent him from ever abusing a real child. Critics say that this will merely enable him to practice his desires before taking a drastic step and repeating the actions in real life.
Whatever their stance, either pro or against sex robots being used to fulfill sexual taboos, most people agree that industry legislation is severely lacking. READ MORE...

Forecast of US Economy 2023
The Conference Board forecasts that economic weakness will intensify and spread more widely throughout the US economy over the coming months, leading to a recession starting in early 2023. This outlook is associated with persistent inflation and the Federal Reserve hawkishness. We forecast that real GDP growth will slow to 0.3 percent in 2023, and then rebound to 1.6 percent in 2024.
US GDP growth defied expectations in late 2022, but we expect persistently high inflation and rising interest rates to tip the economy into a brief and mild recession starting in Q1 2023. Real US consumer spending began to contract in the final months of 2022, and we expect this trend to continue over the coming quarters.
Additionally, as the Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates (we forecast two more 25 basis point hikes over the next two meetings) we expect nonresidential investment to turn negative and residential investment to continue to contract. Finally, volatility in trade and inventory data that boosted growth in Q4 2022 is unlikely to persist in Q1 2023 and will therefore push overall GDP lower.
Labor market tightness will moderate somewhat over the coming quarters but will remain elevated relative to previous economic downturns. This should prevent overall economic growth from slipping too deeply into contractionary territory and facilitate a rebound in late 2023. Inflation will continue to cool over the course of 2023 as well, but the Fed’s 2 percent inflation target will remain elusive. As such, the Federal Reserve will not cut interest rates until next year, in our view.
Looking to 2024, we expect the volatility that has dominated the US economy over the pandemic period to diminish. We forecast that overall growth will return to more stable pre-pandemic rates, inflation will drift closer to 2 percent, and the Fed will bring rates closer to 3 percent. However, due to demographic challenges we expect tightness in the labor market to remain an ongoing challenge for the foreseeable future.

Power & Control
One might think that this is mainly in marriages where one of these spouses always seems to be dominate over the other one... In the past this dominance has typically been the male, but this changing as more and more females are taking control of the marriage.
Personally, I have seen this power and control on display in the following areas:
- A Chrstian University
- Board of Directors
- Supervisors & Managers
- CEOs & Presidents
- Vendors & Customers
- Church Deacons
- Religious Leaders
- Manufacturing
- Retail
- Service Industry
- Family & Relatives
- Healthcare
- Volunteers
- Highway Patrol
- Children's Athletics
- Bank Tellers
- Telemarketers
- Salespeople
- Debates with other students
There is almost no aspect of our society that is not touched by POWER & CONTROL...
How is this taught to us???
- By our parents
- By our families
- By our teachers
- By the church
- By the military
- By our employers
- By our community
- By our friends
- By the news media
- By the social media
Everybody is afraid to talk about and worse than that, everybody is afraid to do anything about it...
We have lost this freedom without realizing it...
SOYUS Goes to ISS
Russia has launched an uncrewed Soyuz spacecraft on a rescue mission to return two cosmonauts and a NASA astronaut whose trip back to Earth has been hampered after their original space vehicle was damaged by a mini meteorite while parked at the International Space Station (ISS).
The Soyuz MS-23 vessel blasted off successfully from the Russian-operated Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Friday, live video broadcast by ISS partner NASA showed. of list
Though the MS-23 is scheduled to dock with the ISS early on Sunday morning Moscow time, it is not expected to bring home Russian cosmonauts Dmitry Petelin and Sergei Prokopyev, and US astronaut Frank Rubio until later this year.
The three arrived at the ISS in September 2022 onboard the MS-22 spacecraft and were originally to stay about six months until the end of March. But the MS-22 began to leak coolant in December after an apparent micro-meteorite punctured an external radiator.
The same thing appeared to happen again earlier this month, this time on a docked Russian cargo ship. Camera views showed a small hole in each spacecraft.
MS-23, which took off on Friday, was initially scheduled to launch in mid-March with two cosmonauts and an astronaut on board who would take over from Rubio, Petelin and Prokopyev at the space station. But without the replacement crew on board MS-23, the two Russians and the US crew member will now continue working at the ISS until September.
Officials had determined that it was too risky to bring the three back in their damaged Soyuz MS-22 next month as originally planned. With no coolant, the cabin temperature would spike during the trip back to Earth, potentially damaging computers and other equipment, and exposing the suited-up crew to excessive heat. READ MORE...
