Some of the more strict Muslim countries have laws against prostitution, so the US 'sounds like a Muslim extremist', although its a fundamental extremist Christian country - which is worse.

Who gives a F** what the USA think about morals (what other reason is there to object to a business transaction?), being as morally corrupt, sick society it has no right to export its filthy mindset and no hope of doing so. I wouldn't take Iran's view on what is right or wrong either as its the most comparable country to the USA from religious viewpoint.
Prostitution is legal in many countries, the USA is a exception, as it is backward in most social issues compared to the rest of the world.

I have an uncle-in-law who retired in Poland a few years ago. He has a pension of under $20K and works various engineering jobs depending on the exchange rate. He had a medical scare recently, but i can't see how he could afford to goto the US for treatment, he went to a small town hospital and paid for private physio treatment.
He says he misses quiet a lot of things in the US (possibly the 300k credit card debt/bankruptcy/spending spree).
I know of two different couples, friends of the family, that went back to Poland for retirement, and both came back to US within few years.

Questioning why you can't open the windows on an aircraft was proof enough for me.
I sincerely doubt that either candidate will be able to sort out the mess. Debt has to be paid down and it will take many years. Obama has failed to do many things - like get out of Afghanistan and close Guantanamo so people are entitled to be disappointed about that - not Republicans though, as he's followed Bush's 'war on terror' policies. On the economy he's continued dealing with Bush's mess using Bush's economic policies. Again, what are the Republicans complaining about? US's economy is in very good shape compared with the rest of the West.
pip,You say that Romney is a complete idiot,what do you base that on?

WB, you shouldn't care who gets elected in the US, neither of them will be able to make much difference. Romney will probably do nothing, for all his talk.
Obama will get elected because its almost impossible to remove an incumbent president, which is why they sent a pea brained, previously rejected, candidate to have a go.

They have Stalins signature for the death sentence of 22,000 Polish officers and of course most of the bodies have been counted. Russia has also admitted responsibility. At the same time around 1.5 million Poles were deported to Siberia where half died in the two winters they were there.
Please don't try and make up excuse for Stalin as its not believable or acceptable.
Right, the hundreds of thousands of Russians soldiers on Polish soil, directly controlling the Polish army and killing thousands of Poles who resisted is not an occupation? Poland fought the first Soviet invasion in 1939.
Up to date Russia recognized that death of only under 2.000 of Polish officers from NKVD
have some documentary evidence and not over 20.000 as total number of estimated.For example:

Is the NYT a socialist newspaper owned by its workers and read mainly by semi-communists/socialists?
There is nothing wrong with the Guardians news reports but ridiculous opinion pieces like your link, are worthless.
The author complains that the left wing journalist were sacked... because nobody read the paper. A typical ex-communist who think that their opinions should be forced on the public and are outraged by capitalism where people choose to buy newspapers. Or not, if its boring left wing crap.
Another flaw in the article is the whine about the lack of anti-capitalist protests in Poland protesting the 'austerity'. Problem is there is no austerity in Poland and has not been, spending is going up with wages.
How terrible for the communists, capitalism is giving Poles higher incomes and there is no place for the communists to get back in power.
Except Poland, the subject under discussion.

UK, Ireland / Polish women in UK caught involved in prostitution scheme [39]
Which one was that, the one with the talking pig, flying man or angels, you idiot?
Prostitution is mostly about women making more money than they could in any other way doing something they love.Problem can arise when its organised which is why brothels are illegal, not prostitution.
In other words, they were let off free as they were technically a brothel but in practice simply selling sex.

A decline in prices means there is no reason to buy, as its not an investment. Nothing major, just wait until prices bottom out 20-30% below what they are now and they start rising for a few months.
As he said, its not a crash, just a very good reason not to buy now.
