BigIyanga: Keep calling me delusional. Lol. I can see comprehension is a big problem for you. Go back to all our conversation and show me where I said that Naija does not have her share of 3rd world problem. My position is simple,I will say it again since you find it difficult to comprehend. THE US WITH ALL IS WEALTH AND SUPPOSEDLY THE PLACE ON EARTH, STILL GRAPLES WITH ISSUES THAT ARE COMMON WITH THIRD WORLD NATIONS as compare with nations like Japan, France, Netherlands, Belgium etc. 45 million people live in poverty in the US over 1.5 million lived in some form of shelter a with confirm over 500,000 being completely homeless about 33 million American do not have medical insurance estimated 90,185 rapes in 2015 estimated 1,197,704 violent crimes New UIS figures show that 1 in 11 children is out of school, totaling 59 million children The country with the best health care system is in Europe 10 countries with best educational system – sorry your US of A is no where near that least 10 countries with best human right index, your epitome of justice and democracy the US of A didn’t make that cut. 10 least corrupt countries in the world; brother your dear US of A did not make it. 10 countries with the most expensive health care system, you know who took the first spot, US of A of course. So please on what basis are you getting a hard on ? ![]() ![]() ![]() The above statistics is not a reflection of heaven on earth coming from the US of A. You should be embarrassed. Maybe instead of arguing blindly with me it will do a great deed to take some time of the crap that CNN has been feeding. Spend some actual time and researching on what life actual is like for people in Germany, Japan, Finland etc those are countries you should compare with US and pray that some day you non-corrupt politician will be gracious enough to make your life as good as the lives of the ordinary citizens of the aforementioned country. 4 Likes |

woodcook:You keep quoting some numbers that you have no clear understanding and application of. Povery threshold in the US is $12k a year while in Naija it's $2/day/$730/yr? Quality of staff, equipment, medications and care given at Hospitals like Stroger-Chicago, Ben Taub in Houston, and Grady in ATL-all catering to the poor and illegal immigrants cannnot be found in Aso Rock. Dude, in Naija over 30 states are owing pensioners and workers; they are dying of hunger and frustration while you're talking about poverty in the US? 3 Likes |

BigIyanga: Keep displaying your ignorance. You just said I am brandishing statistics and you went ahead to compare US with Nigeria. I really do not know how you make it to the other side of the road everyday. Common sense/first year course in statistics should have thought you; to compare like items- bros compare US with Japan, Germany , France etc. Stop comparing US with Naija to make you feel go. Comparing Nigeria with US is like comparing orange and apple (if you know what that means). Moreover, I do not see you disproving those figures. You just keep comparing Nigeria and US after I have made it clear to you two days ago what the basis of our conversation is[b].To be honest you are the typical American that Europeans talk about. Use your head for once.[/b] I will not reply you again bro as long as you keep parroting this US and Naija comparison without addressing the main point of our conversation. 6 Likes |

Rep Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) showed up at Trump Tower yesterday. There are rumors that she could be Trump's UN Ambassador. The 35 year old Democrat has served in the US House of Reps since 2013, and is quite fluent in foreign policy issues. If the rumor becomes a reality, the Trump team would have scored a strategic coup in poaching a potential DNC Chair and a potential 2020 Democratic presidential adversary. However, serving in Trump's administration would hurt her future ambitions within the Dem Party, especially if the American economy gets worse within the next 2 or 4 years. 2 Likes |

I'd recommend reading "Inside The Beltway.." by Michelle Fields. It's an interesting read on govt waste and corruption. |

CFCman:Any democrat taking up positions and appointments under a Trump administration will be labeled a terrorist by the Left. Right now our top priorities is 2018,we have close to 500 seats to take back in state houses and 16 governor races to battle for.Our top price also is draining Congress of the cold hearted reptilian blood suckers currently in the majority. Tulsi and any other democrat can suck up to Trump if they want.They are the least of our worries now. 1 Like |

missjo:For what it's worth,you should be reminded that Democrats didn't hold the country down and threaten to shut down the government every year just to obstruct the president's every decision. As you've clearly seen,Democrats are ready to work with Trump for the good of the country to keep the country on the right path.If there's one thing we've learnt over the years Republicans are yet to understand the concept of Compromise and Concessions. If the country fails this time,they won't have fingers to point or a President to falsely blame a sitting president for the nation's every woes.Tick tock tick,the odds do not favor the GOP,they fail in the next three years,hopefully they all go down. 3 Likes |

Another croc from the swamp has been added into the cabinet which is intended to be free from members of the swamp. Betsy Devos,a member from the family of republican kingmakers in Michigan.She's a fair choice for Education Sec,a choice that needs to be watched closely once in office. It's going to be a long four years,that swamp seems to be enjoying it's expansion program into new territories thanks to Donald. 1 Like |
