I say jess that the native American, which I am 1/8, listened to piss
poor advice from bleeding hearts inside their tribes, and they lost it
all. Well thats not true they do have reservations, but Im more like
Geronimo, or Tsali, they are the ones we remember, and even their people
celebrate. The ones with the bad advice have been forgotten like their
proud traditions. They remember Tsali, because now that it is too late
they see the wisdom these great men were trying to guide them with.

Its a damn shame they saw it too late!
Thats what I think they will and do say. I remember the past, only a
fool forgets, and if need be I will go the way of the proud rather than
cower to the ignorance. Thats what I say!!!!

Well everyone here migrated from somewhere including native americans
but that is neither here nor there.I will send money to anyone to help
them improve their country and their lot but we cant feed the whole
world just because they feel like wandering here.I am all for helping
countries help themselves but there is a limit.The we are the world
stuff only goes so far with me..illegal is illegal period whether your
hispanic,british or whatever.

why jess did you take that as a personal confrontation

i did not mean it as such i was just pointing out another country
with a simular problem


hope all is well

Fanta, and where would you be if you ancesters settled in Iraq????

luck of the draw. You did not get here of your own volition. You did
not choose to be born here. Because you have the freedom to leave but
choose not to do so, means nothing. Would you be one trying to get to
this country or to Canada or the UK, if the 'luck' of your birth put you
in some adversly afflicted country?

And Jess - I see the bird you speak of, they are now becoming many.
Like Fanta they stay, it is thier claim, this land of plenty that you
have provided. Who will feed them, when you can not, who will feed
you, if every other country who once had the means to help SOME, can no
longer help themselves????

I think it would be far more cost effective to try to help these people
raise the standard of living in their native countries. You could help
more people that way.

GAMail, that is the point of Globalization. It seems the intent is to
create a monetary system that is consistant throughout the world. No
exchange rates, you see. That means, for example, that the dollar would
be worth the same anywhere in the world. It seems a good place to
start, and it will be the most affluent countries who will begin it.
There are many concerns though for this process. One would be, how will
this new system, compensate for current exchanges, who will value up and
who will devaluate?

We may be heading for depression that will level out the countries of
power, that means the people with the most, will suffer the greatest.

There wouldnt have been a Saddam, Id have killed his ass

Redy, thats neither apples or oranges, What kind of question is that? my
relatives didnt settle there, so thats a mute arguement...

crazy horse

i love it when an argument goes mute...

You mean when I go to bed? LMAO

The leveling of currencies through out the World are American
coorparation driven to create a larger market for their goods, not to
help the poor, but to help them.
Globalization is not the leveling of currencies. The leveling of
currencies is Globalization...The only ones benefitting from it are the
CEO's....

and i bet they hate birds.

Just to clarify I am not in favor of globalization or a one world
monetary system.

hey get back in the closet
