Once upon a time the US had a number of aluminum plants hooked up to dams on the Columbia River. But between US energy policy (higher electric prices) and the EPA regs they are all gone. They aren't coming back as buying dirty aluminum from outside the US is much cheaper as polluting in Russia is the high moral ground.
Feels like they’ve just kind of given up on nationalism and borders in Western Europe.
We coddled them for too long and now they’re soft and getting steamrolled by 3rd-world immigrants, with their governments actively helping with this demographic takeover.
it’s almost a lost cause. They don’t really share the same ideals as Americans do now. Let them fend for themselves and let’s focus on the USA and our prosperity.
Headboard got 48.3% of the popular vote. We had $36 trillion in debt and open borders in November and yet 48.3% thought we were on the right track. We have ostensibly college educated leftards on this board that can't discuss basic policy issues. We are closer to the EU or the blue event horizon than you think.
I'm old enough to remember the Reynolds aluminum plant in Longview that shutdown because it was more profitable to resell electricity than actually produce anything. Obviously never reopened.

I asked for Next Day shipping so it drops like Benghazi

I like the London Mob in this one.
Undefeated since 1688
