Does it turn out that this is mostly 16-18 year old paid volunteers (i.e. high end prostitution) who once of a certain age recruit (i.e. madames) paid volunteers?

Would explain the lack of victims speaking out.

Why on earth would a lesbian want to come to the US?
Hasn’t she heard how she’ll have no rights? Be hunted?Her life will be pure hell…she’s clearly better off in Morocco.

This saved her life.

trade-deficit-just-had-its-best-quarter-in-33-years


While the annual 2025 deficit was essentially flat at $901.5 billion (down just $2.1 billion from 2024), this masks a seismic shift in the second half of the year—and particularly in the fourth quarter.

November 2025 posted the largest rolling three-month trade deficit decline in recorded history, with the three-month average falling $35.3 billion year-over-year, a 45 percent drop. This surpasses even the peak months of the 2009 Great Recession.

Three consecutive months in late 2025—October, November, and December—each posted year-over-year rolling-three month declines that rank among the top eight largest in recorded history in monthly data beginning in 1992. The only comparable period is 2009—but there’s a critical difference. The 2009 improvements came from economic collapse and demand destruction wrought by the financial crisis and recession. The 2025 improvements are happening during unusually high GDP growth.

The three-month average goods deficit in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $80.5 billion, down 27 percent from $109.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024—a decline of $29.1 billion. The combined goods and services deficit fell even more dramatically, dropping 40 percent from $83.6 billion to $50.7 billion.

Over the six months from July through December, the average goods deficit ran about $84.6 billion per month, roughly 20 percent below the year-earlier period. From the March peak—when importers were front-loading ahead of tariffs—to December, the combined trade deficit fell 48 percent, from $136 billion to $70.3 billion.

The trade deficit soared in the months following Trump’s re-election in late 2024, as companies raced to bring foreign goods onshore ahead of the tariffs they expected him to impose.”

This is important context. The outsized deficits in the first quarter of 2025—averaging $154.8 billion per month—were artificially inflated by front-running. The subsequent decline partly represents a normalization after that surge. We’re essentially watching the payback period.

But even accounting for this, the improvement is striking. The question is whether the current run rate represents a sustainable new equilibrium or if deficits will creep back up once the inventory correction is complete. The next several months of data will be crucial.

Yup.

You are correct.

You aren’t less a patriot by admitting America has a culture problem, an education problem, a work ethic problem, an entitlement problem.

Think of the American worker like most things- a bell curve.

The average American isn’t some spectacular example of why freedom is a treasure to be cherished and defended.

Many are amazing - more are not.

51% take. Keep that in mind. They don’t contribute yet that chest is full of pride and that arse full of lead.

Thank you all!
Checking them out online and all look worth a visit.

Just a friendly reminder - fascism is when government and corporations partner to impose the governments will on the people.

When the government can’t constitutionally force you, private industry can extend that power.

This is a go to tactic for the left. Widespread during the last admin.


That is all.
