As I've been thinking about these atrocious, horrific kidnappings, I'm curious about helping families who have been impacted. I understand people are scared, afraid to leave their homes and leaving business's abandoned. Has there been thought given to creating a fund, maybe by state to help to families survive?

Your speaker is absolutely correct about countering the lies being told about the Democratic Party. Republican strategy is two-pronged. 1) Use of buzz words such as "Communist" and 2) getting voters not to want to be identified with whatever group Republicans have currently targeted as being "bad:" such as Mexican, Venezuelan, Colombian. "murderers and rapists," etc.

Both approaches are negative in that they encourage voters not to want to be associated with either label. They lead the voter away from a candidate. The ads are never positive, in that they don't promise voters actions which would benefit the voters in any way. It would be great to see a unified Latino voting force. That would be very powerful.

Finally, my vote is Bolivian empanadas -- the ones I first experienced and the standard against which all others are compared.

Thank you, David, for your always informative videos.

Mexicans have to start uniting as a voting group. Mexicans are too busy fighting each other when they should be looking for a unifier. It Makes me angry that my Raza can’t see that we are all in the same boat regardless of color, religion, country of origin, gender, education, etc.. There can be no condition for our loyalty to each other. As long as we use a condition to keep from supporting one another the holes in the boat get bigger. No one goes anywhere and nothing gets done. Use each others expertise. Chingau !!

The sheer financial burden associated with the development, maintenance, and inevitable obsolescence of these ultimate deterrents is staggering, consuming vast national resources that could otherwise be directed towards societal betterment. Each device, from its conceptual design to its eventual retirement, represents an astronomical investment in materials, highly specialized labor, and secure infrastructure. The ongoing costs of safeguarding these stockpiles, ensuring their readiness, and managing their intricate delivery systems further compound this expenditure, creating a continuous drain on national treasuries. This economic weight is borne by taxpayers, diverting funds from essential public services, infrastructure development, healthcare, education, or scientific research with more immediate and tangible benefits for humanity.

Beyond the direct financial outlays, the act of proving the efficacy of these devices imposes a significant global burden. Each test detonation, whether atmospheric or subterranean, releases a cascade of environmental contaminants. Atmospheric tests, historically, dispersed radioactive particles across continents, contaminating air, water, and soil, and leading to long-term health consequences for populations far removed from the test sites. Even underground tests, while containing the immediate blast, can fracture geological formations, potentially releasing radioactive materials into groundwater and contributing to seismic instability. The cumulative effect of decades of such activities places an undeniable strain on global ecosystems, impacting biodiversity and altering natural processes. These tests also contribute to a pervasive sense of anxiety and distrust among nations, fostering an environment where resources are allocated to defensive postures rather than collaborative solutions to shared global challenges. The long-term cleanup and remediation efforts at former test sites further underscore the enduring environmental and financial legacy of these activities, a cost that will be borne for generations.

Considering the profound economic and environmental tolls exacted by these destructive capabilities, a novel approach is imperative. Imagine a global initiative where nations possessing these powerful armaments could actively reduce their national debt or accrue significant reductions in interest payments on international loans, in direct exchange for verifiable and irreversible dismantlement of their devices. This proposal envisions a structured, multilateral agreement, overseen by an independent, transparent international body. This body would establish rigorous verification protocols, ensuring that each step of the dismantlement process is meticulously documented and confirmed. The financial incentives would be directly tied to the quantity and type of ordinance disarmed, with specific metrics and milestones agreed upon by all participating nations. This would not be a one-time transaction but rather an ongoing framework, encouraging incremental disarmaments over time, each step unlocking further financial relief. The funds freed up from reduced debt servicing or interest payments would then be demonstrably reinvested by the disarming nation into sustainable development goals, humanitarian aid, or environmental restoration projects within their own borders, or even contributed to a global fund for such purposes. Such a system would transform the burden of these armaments into an impetus for economic stability and global well-being, fostering an environment of trust and shared prosperity, rather than one defined by the looming threat of ultimate destruction.
