“We aren't talking about "people" kev, we are talking about the governments of countries...”
But in what sense was Biden using the term.
Do you think that the US is Mexico’s superior.
Someone can be richer and better looking than me or you but that doesn’t make them our superior.
It seems you and Joe have heard Biden espouse equality among nations, in this case the US and Mexico then placed your own / the most politically negative slant on it that you can.
"Do you think that the US is Mexico’s superior." - In any conceivable economic measure...yes.
"Someone can be richer and better looking than me or you but that doesn’t make them our superior." - In America, I agree... However, if your richer and better looking in Mexico, you are superior to other Mexicans.
"It seems you and Joe have heard Biden espouse equality among nations" - but the nations aren't equal. If they were...there wouldn't be mass unidirectional illegal immigration.

I haven’t seen or heard his speech did he specifically claim that Mexico was economically equal to the US?

That’s not really true though is it they haven’t actually passed legislation in that regard.
But even if they did Biden would still be right in stating that Mexico was equal with the US and / or any other nation.
He wasn’t claiming that they were equal in terms if gdp or that they had the same size military budget. But they still have one vote at the UN as does the US. I’m sure that’s the kind of equality Biden was referring too until your namesake ( who is confusingly the third Joe in this debate ) decided to clutch his pearls come hell or high water.

Ah, apologies. Have you recorded anything like on reverbnation or soundcloud? If you are interested I can send you PM link to my soundcloud site, not getting gigs now because of covid so I am composing instrumental acoustic tunes on guitar, mandolin, dulicmer, keyboards, banjo.
What guitar do you have? My kit includes a 1944 Martin 0-18 just refurbished and sounds like a guitar 2X bigger. Also a Takamine classic guitar from 1968 which wife bought new when we lived in Venice Beach. Also just found a Yamaha FG435 only made in 82 and 83, at a hock shop in Allentown, dreadnaught size, sounds almost as good as a D28. Got it for fifty bucks!
I have 132 tracks so far on Soundcloud, traditional Irish tunes, songs my wife sang on stage in Jerusalem and my own tunes.
It really sucks not being able to get gigs right now but maybe 2022 will be back to more or less normal.
I played in three bands, Southwind, back in Venice beach, got some really nice gigs from that band, traditional Irish.
Then in Phoenix, a band called Sugarloaf Mountain String band, then a family band in Jerusalem where we lived for 4 years.
@sonhouse saidThat splains it all. Been to Venice beach a few times. Never seen so many freaks in my life and I've been around the world. https://www.westland.net/beachcam/

@mott-the-hoople saidSaid 'equal' To have said economically would have been even worse. But , maybe not,,,,,he could say anything,and nothing could be worse.

@mott-the-hoople saidAre you trying out new on-site names for yourself? I like it, succinct and it lets people know what to expect.

@averagejoe1 saidAfter the the last four years culminating in the insurrection do you think anyone but you blunt tools think the US is ‘superior’ you should thank your lucky stars us liberals still see you as equals.

Venice beach is a human zoo for sure🙂 I still miss seeing them on the beach, like the roller skate guy playing guitar with a small amp in his clothes and "General Hershey Bar". Those were the good old days🙂
