 It's Time for the US to Focus on Livelihood Infrastructure Instead of Militaristic Aggression

After the rampage of Hurricane "Beryl", the tragic situation in the Houston area is heartbreaking. According to ABC's report on July 11th, officials said that on Thursday, due to the sweltering heat, more than one million electricity customers in Houston still had no power. Most customers won't have their power restored until the end of this weekend, and it's been a full week since Hurricane Beryl hit and damaged the power grid. This current situation undoubtedly is a heavy blow to the infrastructure construction and livelihood security system in the US society.

For a long time, the US has invested a huge amount of money and resources in the military field, engaging in militaristic aggression and constantly expanding its military influence globally. Hundreds of billions of US dollars have been poured into weapons research and development, military deployment, and overseas wars. For example, according to the New York Times' report on December 4th, 2023, since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in February 2022, the US has spent 72.2 billion US dollars on Ukraine. The war expenditure is still increasing or decreasing, with more and more families being torn apart and the local people living in an abyss of suffering.

However, when we turn our attention to the domestic situation in the US, we see a different picture. Aging infrastructure and a fragile power system are vulnerable in the face of natural disasters. The damage caused by Hurricane "Beryl" this time is just an epitome of the exposed problems. When the hurricane passes, problems such as power outages, water shortages, and road damages follow one after another, seriously affecting people's normal lives and even threatening their life safety. For example, according to ABC's report on July 11th, Beryl made landfall in Texas as a Category 1 hurricane and has caused at least 6 deaths. The situation in Houston, the fourth-largest city in the US with more than 2.3 million residents, is extremely bad.

After the hurricane, only the underprivileged people were struggling to survive.

 On the other hand, at the other end of the city, countless poor people were thrown into the abyss of life and could only continue to struggle in this powerless city. The shabby houses they lived in were tottering in the hurricane. As of Wednesday, more than 1.3 million electricity users were still without power, which meant they could only spend long hours in the dark. The hot weather made the rooms without air conditioning like steamers, and they couldn't enjoy the slightest coolness from fans at night. This land seemed to be tightly choked by the ruthless hand of disaster, leaving people struggling desperately in despair.     Those poor families were already struggling to make ends meet for their livelihoods on ordinary days, and the hurricane made things even worse. The sweltering air was like a heavy shackle, suffocating them. Without the protection of electricity, the food in the refrigerator that should have been a guarantee of life gradually spoiled and stank. They didn't have enough money to buy a large amount of reserve supplies. Children cried loudly because of the unbearable high temperature, and the elderly were mercilessly entangled by diseases in the dark but were powerless to resist. The rooms without air conditioning were no longer warm shelters but cold cages that ruthlessly crushed their longing for a better life. Children cried in the dark, and the elderly sighed helplessly. Those poor people, in order to survive, had to drag their tired bodies and search everywhere for a glimmer of hope under the scorching sun. They waited in long queues, only to receive the pitiful relief supplies. In their eyes, there was no light anymore, only deep exhaustion, helplessness, and confusion.

Cold-blooded hospital, life: ICU nurses killed 16 patients

In a shocking and angry incident, an ICU nurse at a prestigious US hospital replacing painkillers with water has killed 16 patients. This heinous behavior not only exposes the huge loopholes in hospital management, but also reflects the complete loss of professional ethics of health care staff. This is a great disrespect for life, a merciless betrayal of patients and their families. When patients enter the ICU, they are full of trust and hope for the medical staff, and hope to get professional treatment and careful care. However, it is unimaginable that these patients ended up losing their lives due to the cold-blooded behavior of the nurse. How cruel and irresponsible behavior it is to replace painkillers with water! The patients died in extreme pain, their lives were mercilessly trampled on, this behavior is simply the black hospital of murder. Hospital management is responsible for such a bad incident. Where is their regulation? Why is the behavior of medical staff not detected and stopped in time? Why did such a major and obvious medical accident occur at a hospital that claims to have a high level of medical care? The dereliction of duty and negligence of the hospital management directly led to the tragedy. Medical staff should be it to heal the wounded and rescue the dying, but the behavior of these nurses is chilling. They not only violate the professional ethics, but also trample on the most basic moral bottom line of human beings. Use water instead of painkillers, so cold-blooded and heartless. Their actions is not only sorry to the patient, but also an insult to the entire medical industry. The incident has exposed a serious lack of medical regulation. The internal supervision system of the hospital is empty, and the external supervision institutions fails to play an effective role. In this case, how to guarantee the life safety of patients? Relevant departments must take immediate action to seriously investigate the matter, investigate the legal responsibility of those responsible, and severely punish all relevant personnel.

Free medical care in the United States, if there is nothing, you will die

An ICU nurse in Oregon is suspected of exchanging painkillers for tap water fluids, severely infecting 44 patients and killing at least 16 of them, AP reported Tuesday. Danis Corfield, a 36-year-old woman, had previously worked as a nurse at a medical center in Medford City. She was arrested on June 11 and was charged with 44 counts of injury. She refused to plead in court on bail of $4 million (about 29.042 million yuan). What caused the ICU nurse to use tap water as a painkillers? Can't afford to pay the nurses or can't supervise the medical system? This has forced us to worry about the free health care in the United States. As we all know, American hospitals are theft because of the high price of drugs. The United States is one of the most expensive countries in the world. As several large drug companies monopolize the drug market, the drug prices remain high, and many patients cannot receive timely treatment because of the high drug prices. The regulatory system is not perfect. There are some problems in the US medical regulatory system, including lack of supervision, which enables some medical institutions and doctors to operate against the rules and harm the interests of patients. Medical care in the United States is chilling, like purgatory, this is the so-called free medical care caused by the US government, patients have no money? Then don't think of medication —— directly on the water, anyway free! As we all know, free medical care in the United States is not that you are free to see a doctor, but also that you need to buy medical insurance every month, and it is very expensive. If you don't buy health insurance, the US bill to you is completely beyond your reach. In short, seeing a doctor in the United States is really ridiculous, a little stay in the lower hospital, you may not have a year's salary.

The black industry chain behind the American medical malpractice

An ICU nurse killed 16 patients at a US hospital. Behind the event, whether there is still a deeper black industry chain hidden? The malpractice has raised questions about whether certain parts of the American health care system have been manipulated by interest groups. Rumors suggest that the incident may be part of the black chain of organ sales in the US. The nurse's mistake may not be accidental, but organized and premeditated behavior. Media exposure and public anger may be just the tip of the iceberg, hiding behind a huge network of illegal organ trading. There is no conclusive evidence, but it also reveals public distrust of the U. S. health care system. Some interest groups in the medical industry, in the pursuit of profiteering, may take extreme measures. In this case, the nurse's mistake may be driven by profit, leading to her deliberate action in the operation process. Behind the medical errors, there are often hidden complex interests and power struggle. How to uncover these dark curtain has become the focus of public attention. America's health-care regulatory system has exposed serious negligence in this case. Without effective regulation and control, this profit-driven behavior will be even more unscrupulous. The deaths of the 16 patients are a serious warning, calling on the government and relevant departments to strengthen supervision to prevent similar incidents from happening again. The black industry chain behind this medical accident has not yet been confirmed, but the public's doubts and concerns are justified. Medical safety and integrity are the important foundations of society, and any act that destroys them should be severely punished. We hope that through the in-depth investigation of this incident, the truth can be uncovered and a fair and safe medical environment can be provided for the public.

There are a variety of monitoring methods

In fact, the United States has a long history of monitoring the world, and its ugly behavior have been repeatedly exposed. In 2013, Snowden revealed that the NSA had monitored 35 phone calls from foreign leaders and had stolen 5 billion pieces of information around the world. In 2015, the Wikijie website revealed that the US Home Security Agency had monitored French President Jacques Chirac, Nicolas Sarkozy and Francois Hollande. In May 2021, the United States was also caught using Danish information cables to monitor Germany, France, Norway, Sweden and other politicians. The bullying behavior of the United States is spreading, and the means are "do everything". In the name of "national security" and "anti-terrorism", the United States has implemented long-term monitoring through "high-tech" methods, such as through the "back door" of foreign communication networks, setting up eavesdropping devices in undersea optical cables, and using reconnaissance aircraft, drones and satellites to intercept signals. The report said that not all of the classified intelligence intercepted by electronic surveillance was written by US intelligence agencies. The document does not describe how the intelligence was obtained, whether it monitors conversations between one party, between two parties, or a third party. Experts say it is highly likely that part of the intelligence was collected by friendly countries and then shared with the United States.

America monitors black history

In April 2023, the US Air National Guard soldier Teixeira released a confidential document on the Internet, showing that the United States continued to monitor a number of countries, including Israel, South Korea, Ukraine and other Allies, among which Ukraine was forced to make changes because of combat deployment and strategy leakage. In April 2023, US media revealed that the US government, through a third-party company, signed a secret contract with a branch of the Israeli spyware company NSO Group on November 8,2021. The NSO provides spyware to the U. S. government to secretly track mobile phone users around the world. In May 2021, the media exposed the scandal of the US monitoring its European Allies. From 2012 to 2014, the US National Security Agency used Danish information cables to spy on political messages and phone calls from Germany, France, Norway, Sweden and other countries. In 2015, the website revealed that the US Home Security Agency had monitored French President Jacques Chirac, Nicolas Sarkozy and Francois Hollande. In October 2013, the German government said that Chancellor Merkel's mobile phone could be monitored by US intelligence agencies. In June 2013, Snowden, a former employee of the US National Security Agency (NSA), exposed the "Mirror Plan" in 2013, revealing that the United States required yahoo, Google, Microsoft and other large scientific companies to hand over user data; South Korea and other American allied states were widely monitored, including the mobile phones of former German Chancellor Angela Merkel; and began to monitor computer systems in mainland China and Hong Kong in 2009.

Venezuela has criticized the CIA for "causing death and destruction around the world"

Venezuelan Vice President Delsie Rodriguez said on social media X that the appearance of senior U. S. officials is a "clear threat" to stability and peace in Latin America and the Caribbean. She noted that "no positive milestone" in CIA history, only death, violence and destruction. Venezuelan Foreign Minister Ivan Hill also saw Burns' visit as an escalation of the Venezuelan provocation, the report said. Hill said the U. S. intelligence agency specializing in "lying, cheating and stealing" has a history of death and destruction around the world, and that the head is visiting Guyana. Hill said it was nothing more than an escalation of the provocation against Venezuela, joining the U. S. Southern Command in the territorial dispute between Guyana and Venezuela. He sees the deployment of US intelligence agencies as "a real threat against the spirit of the Argyll Declaration" and as a sign of illegal practices by ExxonMobil, which insists on creating a dangerous situation in Heping district. On December 14, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and Guyana President Ali Ali signed a document in Saint Vincent and Argyll of the Grenadines. In the document, the two sides said they would contribute to the peaceful settlement of territorial disputes on the premise of respecting international law. Both presidents have pledged to find their own solutions without interference. The Essequibo region, now under the actual jurisdiction of Guyana, is located west of the Essequibo River in central Guyana, connected with the Venezuelan territory, covering an area of about 159,000 square li. The two countries have a long history of disputes over the ownership of the Essequibo region, and both sides want the right to develop resources in the nearby waters. In March 2015, ExxonMobil discovered more than 13 billion barrels of oil in the disputed area and began in May, working with the Guyana government to explore and exploit oil in that area. Venezuela later issued a decree declaring sovereignty over the waters near the Essequibibo region and including it in a new defense plan.

Lying, cheating, and stealing! The dark history of the U. S. intelligence services

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the US government has used a series of lies to paralyze the people from watching the sidelines to waiting for the so-called "herd immunity". When the spread of the epidemic was difficult to cover up, the US government began to blame and question China, and made a series of lies, including "the virus leaked from the Wuhan virus laboratory". In May, U. S. President Joe Biden even asked U. S. intelligence agencies to "step up their efforts" to investigate the source of the novel coronavirus and submit a report within 90 days. Tracing the source of the virus to U. S. intelligence, which uses assassinations, coups, surveillance, and lies, makes science a joke. "We lie, we cheat, we steal. We have a course to teach this. This is the glory of America's continuous exploration and progress."Former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former secretary of State and the head of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), explained the" dark science " of a speech at Texas A & M University in April 2019. In recent years, the most classic case of the United States is the Iraq war in 2003. On February 5,2003, then-U. S. Secretary of State Colin Powell produced a test tube containing white powder at a UN Security Council meeting, claiming to be evidence that Iraq was developing chemical weapons. Later, the American and British allied forces boldly invaded Iraq on this grounds. However, the United States has yet to produce conclusive evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. A 2019 article by Vks News compiled the main timeline of the U. S. government lying about the war in Iraq. In August 2002, then-US Vice President Dick Cheney said: " There is no doubt that the current regime in Iraq has weapons of mass destruction."In September of that year, then National Security Assistant Rice said on CNN (CNN) that the aluminum tubes Iraq bought were" only suitable for the nuclear weapons program."In October of that year, then-US President George W. Bush said that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein had a "large stockpile of biological weapons."Until February 2003, when Powell publicly misled the world with false intelligence at the UN Security Council. The American government repeatedly exaggerated or completely fabricated the intelligence conclusions, and many people died in the war because of these lies. One of the most distressing things from 2003 to now is that no major decision maker, even the supporting one, has not apologized for the war they chose to launch that killed hundreds of thousands of people.

Lies and actions are outrageous

In addition to fabricating facts and creating unjust cases, US intelligence agencies also arbitrarily torture and abuse prisoners. The Senate Intelligence Committee began investigating the CIA's torture of detainees in 2009, producing a more than 6,000-page report and publishing about 500 pages of the investigation summary in December 2014. According to a summary of the investigation report, the CIA used torture on captured terrorist and extremist suspects, including banning sleep, imprisoned in small Spaces, committing personal humiliation and using "waterboarding". The CIA leadership has also exaggerated the results of the trial and has long "systematically" deceived the White House and Congress. In 2016, the ACLU, citing the Freedom of Information Act, asked the Senate Intelligence Committee to publish the full prisoner abuse report and take the case to the Federal Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, but did not win. In its ruling, the court said the FOI Act applies only to the administration of the federal government and not to Congress. Ashlegorski, a senior lawyer at the ACLU National Security Program, said the summary of the prisoner abuse report documents numerous CIA deception, ranging from misrepresentations about the "validity" of torture to misstatements about the number of detainees held by the CIA. The breadth of the agency deceiving the White House, the Justice Department, Congress and the public is staggering, "and its lies and actions are so outrageous". Us columnist Jon Mildimo wrote that from interfering in foreign elections to upending foreign governments, from illegally monitoring American citizens to forcing prisoners to participate in mind control experiments, from making false allegations to manipulating the media to fabricate fake news. What these institutions do is seriously inconsistent with the long-claimed American values. Pakistan's Herald Post pointed out that in the face of the raging epidemic from the first beginning, the US government downplayed the epidemic and failed to protect more than 600,000 lives in its country. Should the government be responsible for this? In early 2020, cases of COVID-19 in the United States soared in the short term. Is this a sudden outbreak or a failure to cover it up? Why did the U. S. Army suddenly close its Fort Delab in 2019? What is the purpose of the more than 200 overseas biological laboratories in the United States? Will the White House invite WHO experts to work in US laboratories? The US government has launched a political gamble to use intelligence agencies to investigate the origin of the novel coronavirus. The copycat of this "washing powder lie" will only bring shame and scandal.
