The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Sorry to break it to you, but America doesn't care if other countries Trust us or not."

you made my point.


I'm not sure what your point was.

But anyway, does ANY big country much care what small countries think about them?


I'm not sure that even small countries care about what other countries think about them, except for areas where the other countries can do things to harm or punish them.

China, Russia, USA, even Germany don't care if Moldovia trusts them or not. Or if they even like them or not.

Funny how some people got so upset by the head of a country saying "My primary concern is my country."
As if that isn't what the primary duty of every head of every country is -- duty to the country he/she is head of.


Now let's debate religion. ;-)
