It's what happens when a democracy turns into a oligarchy with bought politicians.

I can't argue that point... we're definitely an oligarchy now because the gov't is no longer for the people or by the people. It's for the politicians and by the politicians.

Sorry.. didn't mean to kill your thread... Angel

And the 'sunsabiches' was aimed at MasterCard who won't let you buy tobacco products through PayPal.


Yeah, has nothing to do with Visa programs... but ... well... ok then,

Beer

This has to be the funniest **** I've ever heard... This country is just fine, turn off your TV and close your internet browsers and go for a walk in American prosperity. Even if it is kinda **** it's still better than every other country's best day.

Does it seem to get worse each time you return ?

Or as we get older are we picking better countries to visit?

I'm going with yes on the first question and no to the second . The last country I was in was Mexico and it competes with the US imo

A lot depends on where in those other countries you go. Visiting is one thing, living there is much more.

Look...the politicians are gunning for IT jobs now...next it will be medical...so on and so on and so on until nobody but an exclusive club of CEO's gets really paid.

America is getting sold down the river for nothing but a nod and a wink.

Wake up.

They're in on the swindle. Start reading up on the Asian Trade Agreement (Trans Pacific Partnership)...it's like NAFTA only better for the CEO's!

The TPP will go through if either party wins unless it's not one of the establishment cantidates. Bernie , Trump,and Carson lol are the only ones who would be against it . Bernie is the only one of the 3 who I believe would follow through.
