Cockroach Girl is Making a Return

Cockroach girl is coming back in full force today. I haven't read any newspapers this week or kept up with the news, since I've been buried under massive piles of homework and doped up on cold medicine. Today, my geography teacher set out to inform of us of the world's current situation, which is not promising.

Since I don't believe much of what people say, I came to do a quick search on my own via Kip. And let me say that the man is right.

We (the U.S.) spend nearly 30 billion dollars a year buying Chinese goods and supporting the Chinese industry. The Chinese industry is controlled by the Chinese military, something that I was not aware of. This means that every dollar we spend on Chinese goods goes to the military. The United States has been building the Chinese military for several years now. We supply them with the money they need to acquire the weapons they need.

And because the U.S. can't keep its nose out of everyone else's business, we have pledged to defend Taiwan from China, should Taiwan want to seek its independence from China. This is just absolutely fantastic, given the resolution passed by the Chinese government. The new resolution authorizes the use of military force on Taiwan to stop any moves on independence.

So, if Taiwan does seek its independence and the U.S. helps them, we will be fighting the Chinese military, which we built up in the first place.

This is freakin' stupid. Can't anyone up there in our nation's capital see what's really going on? Or are they so concerned with Iraq that they have no time to look around at the rest of the world? And what about North Korea? Hello! They have nuclear weapons, which we never found in Iraq. This whole situation infuriates me to no end.

I'll probably never graduate college at this rate. The whole world will be in nuclear winter before too long and there will be no time for school when you're frantically searching for food that isn't there. And then we will all starve or freeze, or both! And all that will be left are the stupid cockroaches!
