china threatened to convert its dollar reserves if america gives it too much hell about its currency. this would cause the dollar to collapse.
are there any downsides to a weak dollar? it seems like it would boost the US economy greatly, just like the artificially weak yuan is doing for china. the only people it might affect are expatriates who live off of dollars. americans dont need to go to europe for tourism, they hate us anyway, and our beaches are nicer.

That today many governments are smart enough build big machines to go to the moon, and look for other planets, yet they still do not have a better system to put out a forestall fire than using some helicopters and a 1000 litter bucket?

Details: When you are in the world, we are put through challenges, even facing unknown situations and processes, and you accept them. You also ignore and accept the unknown or secretive in government answers. We say, if they make war they must have a reason for it.

But if there is something unknown about God's ways within Christian views, then it is not a challenge or interesting topic of investigation but a plane unbelievable fact.

Isn't the whole world a religion and many people are indoctrinated into it from birth?.
Is not the economical concept of balace of offers and demands a fantasy? There will never be a balance of the same to avoid unemployment, or correct distribution of wealth.
What is your view? (Unbiased view)

I heard from a buddy who has a buddy in the Navy that they had many chances to take out Saddam when he invaded Kuwait. I wonder if they would have done it then would we be there today? I don't think so but what do you think?

I keep on hearing them bring this up in the health care debate..

"well anyone can go to the ER so everyone has health care"...

ever been to the ER? it's about the most expensive area in a hospital... and hospitals aren't eating the cost... they are passing it on...

so... we basically have "socialized medicine"... it's in just about in the most expensive area in the hospital and everyone is paying for it...

does that make sense to anyone?

a family doctor could do many of the things the ER does for those without insurance.. at a greatly reduced cost...

His reasoning for not sending his boxers to Chicago for fear of defecting is pathetically laughable. What he surely knows, but doesn't have the balls to admit, is that when people are fed up and desperate, they ultimately vote with their feet, as multitudes of Cubans have done ever since inFidel took over. If the US was soooo screwed up as inFidel would try and lead people to believe, then why do not only his people, but people from Mexico and other Latin American countries flock to the US, illegally or otherwise? But, given inFidel's support of the likes of the murderous butcher Che Guevarra (with whom inFidel allegedly had a homosexual liaison), what do you expect? But of course, there will the usual bunch of droopy-eyed Far Left Hypocrites like Cindy SheeMan in the US who will still adore inFidel and his "people's utopia".

Does this mean all undocumented workers? American Citizens and Illegal Immigrants? A15/16 year old teen mowing lawns, washing cars, and earning pocket money? The terms used get quite confusing at times.

We have a strange fascination with birthdates, anniversaries and the beginning of a new year. It's usually an occasion to celebrate, but in a society that places value on youth, success and accomplishment, it can also be a time of reflection and self-analysis. So what's going through your mind when you blow out the ever increasing numbers of candles on your birthday cake?

I live in Texas and here we fly the American Flag no problems. I hear that in some places in the US people look down on you for flying it.

Is this true?

Yesterday I posted a question/statement that showed affection for my country, the United States of America. A majority of those who responded echoed my sentiment with the exception of two who showed hate for our country AND/OR hate for Republicans. Tonight I was notified by YA that my question was deleted. Then I post a question about why this question was deleted. Some of the responses I got were partisan and one person accused me of “ranting” in my first question.

Here's the question:

Deleted Question: God bless America, the greatest country on earth! My home.?

Question Details: There are so many on YA that show a dislike for our country. It’s sad that so many are our own citizens. I just wanted to say God bless America. She has carried us through so much and helped the peoples of other nations so many times. Our fighting men and woman are buried in foreign soil as a testament to that. God bless America!

One more thing, God bless our allies/friends around the world who at times have disagreed with us but would fight and die along side us!
