I don't understand; what do you mean?

The Cold War didn't end when Russia dropped communism, or rather, when the oligarchs who took over decided that democracy wasn't good for their existence and continued to treat the West as their enemy. Yes, the US financed and provoked the revolution and democratic process in Ukraine and it's...

This is likely the case in all countries in the world. I will repeat again and again that the worth of education is not necessarily to make more money. There are many professions that benefit from educated individuals yet don't pay particularly well. The problem with America is that it's the...
