Try as you will, you'll never completely escape the ineptitude that makes this country "great"....or whatever. |
If you're a gringo living here comfortably.
If you're Mexican...not so much.  |
Explaination please. |
We gringos aren't affected by lack of social services, stagnant wages, inflation, inadequate housing and education, economic downturns and the like.
We have our own resources.
Mexicans don't.
Additionally, if it breaks down we have an escape route.
Mexicans are stuck.

Mexicans have friendship, family, humor, and joy in living each and every day.
In the USA we have water pressure, paved roads and massive forced debt, increasing bailouts to umpteen trillions, vast bankruptcy, a military
industrial complex that runs every aspect of our life with an inefficient government larger than even the world economy can support. Worse the USA
media machine is so vast projecting half-truths and lies, its shadow government so devious and malicious that it systematically destroys and kills its
own people with depleted uranium, genetically modified foods, vaccines, chemicals, specious financial markets and a out of control police that has
been trained to turn on its' people with tasers and gunshots if they flinch incorecctly.
Worse the American people in general are each unwilling to take a look at themselves or their situation or act, presumably because "its the other guy
who is suffering worse than me", like a perenial 'dialing for dollars' or 'let's make a deal', the American believes that he is just about to win the
lottery, so let the others suffer, I am going to win.

Good Golly, Gnu.... You should have posted this on Independence Day. That would have added a bit more to the ludicrousness of it all.
Take those meds Gnu. The shrink gave them to you for a good reason.

Har har harumph happy continued holiday Dennis. Harde har hahaha. But let us not forget our individual responsibility to uphold the law and the
Constitution and save America from the hands of global banking thieves.
Funny you bring up 4th of July, Independence day, which is a fitting suggestion since the subject of independence is the matter at hand.

So happy Independence day-I am heading into day 11 of the celebration at the beach!
Today at 7:30 at our beach we will have a moment of silence for those people killed in these senseless wars. Please join us.

Thanks for the invite, Gnu. Appreciate that. Since I can't tell if it's AM or PM, I'll just pay my silent respects throughout the day. Good idea
on your part.

Any chance on your silence lasting more than a moment?

Gnukid,
Your view of America and American's is a little slanted. I think you watch too much Jerry Springer and think that's the typical American. Are you
quoting here, as you say "we have....", I thought you live in La Paz? By the way, most of my friends here in America also have friendship, family,
humor and joy each day, Mexico isn't unique in that regard amigo.
Your rant deserves to be in Off Topic by the way!
Ken
