    Can anyone explain it?

    Dolphins dying in mass of USA waters.

    American bald eagles dropping like flies in USA national parks.

    Mass die-off of billions of bees across the USA landscape.

    Funny none of those things happen in Argentina.

    I warned Yankeeboy that his country was filthy dirty with all that industrial and antibiotic crap food and products they pump out, now they are paying the consequences. The Pacific ocean off the California coast is officially in terms of tonnage the world's biggest garbage dump. I could go on and on.

    And as I warned him, now with the oil fracking their food supply will be poisoned.

    The future of the USA:
