A mime is walking down the street. Suddenly he bumps into something in front of him/her. There is nothing visible there, but the mime can’t seem to be able to pass through. He reaches out with his hands and “feels” the barrier. His hands move up and down the wall, but he can’t push through it. Now he turns to the left, but unfortunately the glass is there too. So, he reverses and tries the right side. No luck. There is a wall there too! The only thing left to do is the turn back around to retrace his steps from where he came. But NO! there is a wall there now also. He is trapped in a glass box that appeared out of nowhere, and now has trapped him in place.
Have you noticed that a new Glass Box has suddenly appeared around Americans, and we didn’t even notice it being constructed?
If you are a citizen of the USA, currently living in this country, you are now trapped. You cannot enter Canada. There is a wall on our southern border preventing you from leaving this country into Mexico. There are barriers to entry for countries all over the world. Americans no longer have unrestricted travel.
It would be too difficult to list all of the countries that are prohibiting Americans from entering. It is far easier to list the countries that DO NOT restrict travel entry from the USA.
The Caribbean
Croatia, Turkey
Egypt, Rwanda, Tanzania
French Polynesia, The Maldives, Seychelles
Mexico
That’s it.
If you want to leave this country and go somewhere, that is the sum total of where you can go with a US Passport.
Can you blame them? Here are some statistics from the past month:
Within the US there are additional restrictions.
The following states require a mandatory quarantine if you travel into them:
Alaska
Connecticut
District of Columbia
Florida
Hawaii
Kansas
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
North Dakota
Rhode Island
Vermont
Depending on where you live, you are restricted from movies, theatre, indoor dining, fitness centers, churches, sporting events, beaches, etc.
SURPRISE!
This is our new Glass Box.
