Generally (not always) succeeding in school leads to more professional success in Western societies. Have you tried to succeed in School?

Traversing the heartland of the midwest, there are 100's of miles upon miles of corn and crops. There should be no excuse for hunger or exorbitant costs of groceries and produce. I believe a lot of our crisises are manufactured crisises.

Second, why do we really have so many adversaries. Some will claim other nations hate us because we are "the leader of the free world," but I believe there are other reasons, like we have really instigated conflicts and pissed a lot of people off.

Notice the whole American Last claim is actually becoming more apparent and obvious. I sometimes believe we don't really vote for our own leaders and there is something more sinister happening. All the propaganda we have been fed all these years were all lies.

Nowadays, it is worth asking whether it is the state that creates the nation.

Take Bavaria, for example. You know Bayern Munich; it represents the German state of Bavaria. If Bavaria were separated and turned into an independent country, would Bavarians suddenly become a separate nation, or would they still be Germans?

The genetic difference between a Russian from Moscow and a Ukrainian from Kyiv is smaller than the difference between a Saxon and a Bavarian.

When people think of Bavaria, they think of its distinctive green feathered hats and traditional clothing, its Catholic population, its industry, and its unique accent. As a state within Germany, Bavaria differs considerably from the rest of the country. By contrast, many of the things presented as symbols of Ukraine are also associated with Russia. There may be regional differences, of course—it is, after all, a border region. The word "Ukraine" literally means "borderland," the southwestern frontier of Russia.

Historically, there had never been a Ukrainian state, whereas Bavaria did exist as a state and was initially reluctant to join German unification. The region over which the Crimean War was fought was once home to the Crimean Khanate. After the collapse of the Golden Horde, first the Dasht-i Kipchak and then Crimea came under Russian control, and Russians—who, for some reason, would later come to be called Ukrainians—were settled in these territories.

According to this view, Western powers constructed a Ukrainian identity through a divide-and-rule strategy, much like Napoleon did in Egypt. (In fact, the Russians used a similar strategy by separating Azerbaijan from Iran, even though Azerbaijan had naturally been part of Iran.)

Additional note: It was not Russia but the Western bloc that, by bringing about the collapse of the Soviet Union, pushed millions of Ukrainian and Moldovan women into poverty and prostitution in countries such as Turkey.
