Hi Brian, you're some hypocrite ;-) but sure amusing (no offense). Am So, den 28.03.2004 schrieb Brian Chase um 23:46: > Tell that to my starving kids.

We are facing the very same problems in Europe too. Maybe our situation is even more complicated since the European Union is shifting its boundaries some thousand miles east in a couple of months. You can certainly imagine what happens when there are no more borders between Germany and Poland, just to name one of the ten new EU members. Imagine the US opens the borders to Mexico without restrictions... You get the picture, don't you? But it's certainly not their fault. The mechanism that drives this situation is called capitalism and competition. It's the stuff our economies are built upon and if it's the poor folks in Poland and India that can profit from it for a temporary period I can only support this. After all, economic growth and wealth leads to more stability. And you don't want the Indians to be mad on you, believe me ;-) It's difficult enough to control where Pakistan sells its nuclear technology already... And whining about how bad the situation in the US is... sorry. The US is still the most wealthy nation on earth by far. It is up to you to make sure the wealth within the US is somehow evenly distributed. I'd recommend getting rid of this barfly of a Texan first who is filling the pockets of his friends from within the White House. But this is your business ;-) In any case, please don't feel offended. But your statements called for a written intervention ;-) From European friend to American friend :-) kind regards, Tobias W. -- *************************************************** ____ _____ | _ \| ____| Tobias Weisserth | | | | _| tobias@weisserth.[de|com|net|org] _| |_| | |___ http://www.weisserth.org (_)____/|_____| Encrypted mail is welcome.
