What George and Xwarrior said.....
Go home? ? ? Where is home ? The old adage goes "Home is where the heart is" and for me, THIS IS home !
The America I knew as a child some 45 years ago has faded into history, never to be seen again by this or any other generation. With the Homeland Security stuff, America is no longer the home of the brave, land of the Free......There is no freedom in the US any more. It has become the type of country/government we send our brave young soldiers to die for to free other peoples from. (Bad grammar, I know, but makes the point better !!)
I, like many of you, have found great freedom here in China....in many, many areas of life.....and would not have most of them when we return to the US.
Eat my supper, breakfast, lunch on sidewalk? NOT EVER !
Have a beer on the sidewalk? NOT !
Buy my vegetables and meat on the sidewalk? Not in a thousand years !
Buy a quality Winter coat on the sidewalk? NOT !
I DON'T THINK SO IN AMERICA !!!! There are the Unions, National Health Organization, the Local Health Department and thousands of other agencies that see to it there is no free and unencumbered market anymore.
Am I down on American right now? ? You betcha ! Too Damn many people looking for the fast buck and everyone out to scam someone. AND, on top of that, is the "I don't care" attitude which drives me crazy!
