I agree...Americans are way too focused on consumption and self edification. We worship many idols--food, alcohol, work, power, shopping, you name it. Okay, off my soap box now. :-)

Let’s move somewhere else. Where life’s more fair….an idea.. How about Saudi Arabia?? I’ll get to wear a Burka. And we might even get our heads cut off if we’re lucky.. Maybe Gaxx would welcome us! Sure for dinner! We get to be the entrée. You know what I mean. Not funny…Pange Why is it Kushan that all the American Americans come to America and not to another country?. how come, they don’t all go to Venezuela or Cuba?. they know something we don’t know.))) they also know how to work the system. But you and I will pay for.. By the way, America has no outagration Quota. Pangie quota. Did you ever think of that?.
