Blobby is very mysterious these days...

A friend and her dad just went down to Mexico for dental work (implants, etc) - flying, driving etc was still cheaper than even the local dental college - and they got great service.

What the fuck has happened to our society.

Once upon a time, people stayed with an honest employer for decades or more and the reciprocating factor was the employers treated their staff like family by paying bonuses and having good dental and extended bennies. The unions were strong and manufacturing was all done within your country, or at least within the commonwealth or USA.

Then the greasebag globalists came along and now our cities resemble Mogadishu or Lagos once the sun goes down

We became static.

Forgot that an educated and mobile workforce leads to prosperity

There was a shift from companies wanting to make good products, keep employees happy and make a decent profit. Then it became about stock price and quarterly earnings and the CEO keeping his job. This also shifted the manufacturing base from Canada and the US to overseas. I'll guess a lot books have been written about it, but that's how I see it.

The quality in goods and services has gone way down in the new economy. Chef went to Brown’s recently and had a burger Dave Nonis style, the zit faced millennial chef just slopped it together, extreme poor workmanship, no pride in his job. I would’ve been better off going to McDonald’s, didn’t finish the slop.

Browns is Wendy’s in disguise. And the bill for my wife and I was well over $100 and then at bill time they prompt you with tip options now as high as 22% and if you don’t tap the highest option the smug millennial waitress is giving you the bitchy resting face.

I know it’s a restaurant but it’s across the board regarding you don’t get what you paid for, not anymore

[almost everyone at the Bar & Grill seems to be in panic mode).

Who is almost everyone?

I don't get that vibe at all.....

Just seems a lot of people are whining over 'wokeness' (whatever the fuck that means), immigration, and the general collapse of (western) society.

It’s getting worn out and tired but that’s how society rolls now, bitching about “woke” is next level woke. Immigration is just another term for white fear or the great replacement theory. Globalism is a natural evolution in mankind, good luck in stopping that tsunami, it’s too ingrained now, that ship has sailed. The great reset (nuclear war) seems inevitable.

Well that's because it's collapsing Cornuck!

The comedy show down around your parts can be compared to how the fall of the Roman Empire went down

At the moment, however, America is moving in the wrong direction. New York City, a hotbed of leftist ideology and a microcosm of what’s causing America’s decline, recently announced it would cut police funding to spend $12 billion more on illegal aliens. The streets may not be safe for U.S. citizens, but at least those here illegally will be comfortable.

New York was once the greatest engine of prosperity in the world, and now people are fleeing in droves. We haven’t quite gotten to cows grazing in the Roman Forum, but entire swaths of once-thriving cities are now abandoned. Even the inhabited cities are in decline, with rising taxes outpaced by the crumbling institutions they allegedly fund.

Left behind is lawlessness, dying communities, and a two-tiered society with the lower class living in progressive misery and insecurity while the rich retreat to luxurious enclaves

Go woke- go broke

Rather than link to something as biased as the heritage foundation - this government report is a little more interesting

Summary: Illegal immigrants are a net fiscal drain, meaning they receive more in government services than
they pay in taxes. This result is not due to laziness or fraud. Illegal immigrants actually have
high rates of work, and they do pay some taxes, including income and payroll taxes. The
fundamental reason that illegal immigrants are a net drain is that they have a low average
education level, which results in low average earnings and tax payments. It also means a large
share qualify for welfare programs, often receiving benefits on behalf of their U.S.-born
children. Like their less-educated and low-income U.S.-born counterparts, the tax payments of
illegal immigrants do not come close to covering the cost they create.
