Babyboomers, yours obsession :)

Well, not really.. You study economics , right? You want to tell me the US is not in serious decline? It is.. mostly because of these idiotic decisions made by these babyboomers. I'm sorry but it is true. They have been in power for sometime now. Not only do the decisions effect us but also Europe.. I dont know why you should be so kind to them. ??

Yep.. they're bringing those jobs to the US Midwest I just read. German and Italian firms.

but who is going to figure out your taxes in the IRS corn maze or get your a** out of trouble when you need it?

The stupid business class created this corn maze. Like children you have to be watched hence things like Sarbannes - Oxley.. hence a damn Pay Czar to keep you from ripping off shareholders. You are pathetic most times.. needing protection from your own kind. :-(


I'm not yearning for 'good ol' communist anything'.. but I am learning for the business class to be exposed for what they are, which is typically pathetically greedy.

Look at what your babyboomer generation has done to one of the greatest economic machines ever conceived. .. and still you don't get it do you? Only: Profit, profit, profit, money, money, money. Now my poor generation has to clean up and pay for your idiocy.

Who needs another landfill?


Lying and cheating, falsifying earnings reports, creating more credit crises? Nobody needs them.

Right, a true product the idiot 80's mentality. Hopefully.. we can soon replace that with "scientists and teachers" syndrome. With green energy all the rage there is actually a market for these jobs more and more.

Things are getting better not really worse, imo.

I am heading up to Vancouver this summer though. Don't get me wrong, you guys do a lot of things right. If you didn't genuflect to the limey so much I would respect you more.

Longing for some of that good old Canadian Socialism? ;-)

Uhh no.. Could we use an occasional teaspoon of that medicine? Yes.. but not the whole damn bottle. :- )

There is the problem: You are letting other people dictate to you what the good life is. People always have more / less. Worrying about what you don't have all the time is ridiculous.. and it sadly permeates American culture. I love the US always will but not that aspect of it.

Not if it puts you in an early grave. I can tell you're young. "Big money" isn't really all that attainable. But good luck to you if you want to go for it. Don't lose your soul in the process.

If you graduate in the US, hell, even if you don't graduate, you can go to college as long as you you're test scores are in line.

basically true.

History / Life in communism vs democracy in Poland [234]

You're following capitalism's definition of success, which leads you to work, and never find success. Each and every one of you should define your own success. Don't let someone else define it for you. Indeed, don't let a system that wants only your labor to define it for you.

A lot of people will blow this off as a socialist's rant. Not me. I've chased money (and found it on occasion) .. it doesn't make you that happy. Women will just prey on you basically, lol. It's fun in your 20's not your 30 - 40's.

You know what makes me happy in general? Learning things, new experiences.

That used to be true but it's not so much as it was. Things are tightening fast with the ascension of China. Real wages are down and you'll typically need some kind of higher education to get a decent job.

Haha.. that would do it!

Haha, I know.. Krysia's a trip on here. Has some good pts though.

What's the bad news? I'd be drinking if I had to eat it. Go find a ham.

Given a choice I'd take Poles too. At least Polish kids don't start gangs if they don't get into college. Be nice to have a lot more Polish restaurants too.

I don't think there is a preference for Mexicans though. They just flood in all over.. dig tunnels , etc.

Racist people everywhere. However, Poland is a ally and should be given respect.


Hoo boy, it figures. :- (

I don't wear gray but many Southerns will buy you a whiskey and try and adopt you. Johnny Reb was good fighter.. I will give him that.

No.. not really. It's beaurocratic snafu.. not necessarily hating Poles.


The people who watch over those battlefields like it when Europeans come to these things. They're usually complimented by it. Watch out.. many Confederate ghosts at night on Little Round Top ;- )

Uhhh.. probably Neo Nazis.

These guys sentenced to 10 years will make them martyrs in a sense to Neo Nazis. Just get them more excited.

The "Scream" has been stolen several times out of Norway.. I don't think they got 10 years in prison.

Not a huge fan of the Big Apple but there's a little more to it than the Statue of Liberty. And you can get robbed or killed anywhere. Had rocks thown at me in Paris once. (Arab neighborhood) :- )

For a wrought iron sign? Which was recovered. Take a welder about 2 hours to restore it. They were broke guys trying to make money.. no need to overreact.

You take it too personally, man. It's nothing against Poles. Look at Zbigniew Brzezinski.. you think he's been discriminated against? No, he's a Pole immigrant and has sat on our National Security Councils. Republican and Democrat.

The British get deported all the time , so do the Irish. We have no jobs for our own people right now. It will be a bad situation for the next 3 - 4 years at least. This is capitalism. You have to be tough and wait for the good times to return. They always do

Work / Why is Polish workmanship so bad? [52]


Polish stonemasons can be really good too. Construction sites in the US often want them.
