Hummm, this will come as a surprise to those "failed socialist countrys", all of whom think they're doing quite well. (You might try actually visiting Europe some time before attempting to lecture about it.) > If gas gets to be $7.68 per gallon like it is right now in Germany or $7.97 in the Netherlands, and nobody can afford to drive, then tell me about how good Obama is doing. Funny, the people in Germany and The Netherlands are driving every single day. I wonder how they can do that if "nobody can afford to drive"? (Q: Do you ever proof-read the stuff you write, then look at it and say "Whoops! That can't *possibly* be right!"? Apparently not.) > The whole country will shut down with $8.00 per gallon gasoline. Yeah, just like it did with $3.00 gasoline.

I know, I know, I should be used to it by now, but the level of geographic ignorance of some people in a certain country still never fails to amaze me. With what they don't know you could easily fail another half dozen students. jue

Only a rightard would claim that European countries are "failed". But then anybody who thinks that workers should earn less in order to make rich people even richer cannot be all that smart. -- Ray Fischer rfischer(a)sonic.net |
