Problems with the Social Security Administration of the USA

I'm an American that left the States several years ago.
I am grateful for having been born in the US, but things have been going downhill for the last few decades.
One organization that has hit rock bottom, IMHO, is the Social Security Administration. 
They owe me three payments from April 2024 (it is now September 2024) and I still don't have any of that money that is owed me.
One of the payments they owe me is one that was payed to someone in the US. I live is Sweden. How the SSA could be that inept, is beyond me.I would feel somewhat better if they would actually send me the funds before my passing :-)

The Fast Food Epidemic and The Degradation of the US Goverment

Obesity, all over the world, has now reached epidemic proportions.
Fast food seems to dominate the choice of 'nutrition' these days. 
 
Now, speaking of the USA, the US leads the world in heart attacks and general heart disease. The food pyramid presented by the FDA was totally wrong. That put high fat and cholesterol items at the top of the pyramid and caused the whole situation of obesity and disease.
 
You'll understand, when you listen to this episode, why the US government should be rebuilt from scratch.

The World is Getting FAT and the Education System Needs to be rebuilt

The world has been going steadily downhill since the Vietnam War. 
The US is the ONLY place, in the world, that puts fluoride in water.
I'm pretty sure that it has dumbed down the American public so that they have been duped into voting for many people into office. The lobby system is corrupt, and so is the Electoral College.
Our education system is broken. Only very few can escape its grasp. The education system is not meant to teach anything other than fitting a square peg into a round hole.
The educational has to be rebuilt from scratch. We have to look at each child as an individual, then, and only then, will the population blossom and reach its full potential.
Because of Elmo Calkins, the marketing machinery has convinced people to buy things they don't need. Billions of dollars are spent every year on clothing that you don't even need! 
Fast food companies have convinced you that their food is very tasty and helps your body. Unfortunately, this isn't quite true.
In fact, fast food has caused an epidemic of obesity in the US, but now it has also spread in Europe and other continents.
Reject fast food if you want to stay healthy!

Education, or lack. thereof, is a HUGE problem in this World

I've know, since I was a kid, that education is only about making a round peg fit into square hole.
 
We need to educate children with the proper values and morals to build a better society. 
 
Teachers need to be vetted before they are allowed to teach. The system has to support the good teachers in order to teach what is REALLY important.
 
The world would be a much better place with the right education of our young people. Help make this happen in your own community. Let's build a better world, together.

We, in this world, need to pull together. Please. End all wars.

We, as a race, have a tendency to want more. This includes wanting what other people have.
This podcast episode is more on a macro scale. The reason for wars has almost always had to do with the grab for land, or resources that were possessed by another country.
Whether  the USA, or Russia, or many other current countries or in the past. It' always about taking from others.
What we really need, if we want to save this earth, is to pull together and help one another .
