America's Got Talent

November 02, 2024 04:17PM
Does anyone else find it strange there are a Brit, a Canadian, a German, and a Columbian as judges on AGT?

Or that probably 80-90% of the acts aren't from the US?

Entertaining yes, but also misleading.

The "Got Talent" franchise began in the UK. Simon Cowell expanded it to the US. There are now "clones" in many countries, but the US version pays the most to the winner.

Well, this country does not want to put America first, so why should a TV show?

There is the truth.
Then there is the right thing to say.

This just in: The US is nowhere close to being first at anything anymore*, at least not when it comes to anything good.

Back in the day, when the highest tax bracket was 90%, this country led the world in every metric that mattered.

Now we are mired in the mid-30's while a majority of our allies kick our collective asses.

*Apparently we do lead the world in the number of freaking idiots who think it's appropriate for a convicted felon (34!) to head up our government.
