Most of the good people here seem to be from the States which is cool..I first got online in 1994 and back then the only people online were mostly American. SO i made a lot of truly lovely American friends, some of whom I am still in contact with and a few I have met in real life.
Quid pro quo? Many Americans retire in Mexico because its cheaper. Should the American government plan housing and benefits when they return? They will need Medicare or Medicaid, too.

Tears!Watching the States fall one by one, like dominoes, . . .Florida, Boom! . . .Pennsylvania, Boom!. . .Ohio, Boom!. . .Minnesota, Boom! Boom! BOOM! Two inches from the TV my stomach contorted and I felt like throwing up, my chest filled and my nose itched. And sniffled. Then, without my approval, tears jumped out from my eyes like tiny little frogs.What a thing folks. What a thing.Note: This is not about expressing your views on how much you despise President Trump or Hillary. There are plenty many a thread for that. less

I don't know if homophobia existed way back then but if it did they would be that as well. PET is no different now than they were then except for the slavery thingy. That's only because we have made slavery illegal.
Hello:Or, a BETTER question is, WHY don't Trump supporters BELIEVE that he's going to DO what he SAID he'd do?? And, why aren't they JOYFUL about that?excon

Trade agreements, taxes, walls or tariffs won't change that. There IS an industry just WAITING for us to take the lead, but it's not very popular among the powers that be.. You KNOW what it is, doncha?excon

"Elegance or beauty of form, manner, notion or action. A pleasing or attractive quality or endowment". Gracious. Graceful. Amazing Grace. Religious or not is grace something you have or something you learn? Are you born with it? Does it come naturally to some and is it out of reach for others? Can it be taught? Can it be emulated? Is it a worthy goal to be gracious, graceful? why?

Almost like he just wants to surround himself with people who will just agree and not argue with him.. hmmmmm very odd.Perhaps this is just a team while he waits to be in position but.. but.. it doesn't bode well and what's the betting they will get positions within the government..It's scary!!!

The Republican excuse for the advantage of no taxes or few taxes is that it will bring business back to America. Taxes drives companies away from a state or a country. Well there will no longer be any excuses. So America will flourish without the burden of regulations. Everyone will benefit, right? Or maybe we the people (you know.."the little people") will get SCREWED (CHEATED) but the rich will get richier and isn't that what everyone wants? Of course it is! :( less

Doesn't the elephant grow larger when you try and soon the entire room is occupied by that elephant? There are mood enhancers/changers of course. Drugs and booze and meds can mitigate just great. Temporarily. But they kinda fry your brain. Bottom line. Are you in control or are your emotions in control? Does your brain causes you to change how you feel or do your emotions cause you to change what you think and how? less
