I believe America will always set the biggest example to the rest of the world

@EugenieLaBorgia If you ever decide to emigrate here, I'll vouch for you/vet you 😉

@wildbill83 Oh, I'm going to bring my leaf-blower and sombrero along with my legal visa just to show some how entering the country should be performed!!

@EugenieLaBorgia you already have the main prerequisite that should be in place for emigrants...

The ability to speak/read/write/comprehend English... 🤔

@DesertGhost Omaha beach will never be forgotten by me and was never forgotten by my parents, either!

@DesertGhost some grand irony there isn't it? of all the Europeans we liberated, many ridicule and despise us; on the other hand, Germany is one of the best duty stations you can pull, they love us over there. 🤔

@DesertGhost Hell, if Hitler had pushed east instead of west first, Germany would've pulled it off on it's own...

They gained a lot of ground into Russia, with little resistance from populace... the irony there being, many preferred liberation by fascists than defense by communists...🤔

@wildbill83 because they're scared

@wildbill83 communists wouldn't have a need for a defense because there would be no one to defend yourselves against, you'd all be on the same side, rather than all on you own trying to survive. Ppl would give before you would ever need. You wouldn't charge yourself anything as all of life is an act of giving.
Life is for-giving, not for-getting.

@JovialPlutonian I'm sure millions of Russians who were intentionally starved to death under Stalin's rule would take comfort in your ignorance of history...

@wildbill83 yes and don't ignore that like capitalism you'd still need an honourable person governing

@JovialPlutonian Soviet-era Communism wasn't about Communism. It was about Stalin having power and using Communism as a tool to keep power. Millions have died due to his policies and his purge of Russia's military command right before WWII.

@wildbill83 humanity as it is is not ready for such honesty. You wouldn't choose to love yourselves and and each other. When you can then money will no longer be necessary and all would be rich!

@DesertGhost Indeed. Communism in it's current form simply doesn't work.

@DesertGhost That's the funny thing about arguing with communists/socialists, they always ignore the "bad examples" (which is usually all of them) and reply with such quips like "Oh, but that's not how it's [b]supposed[/b] to work..."

"They say Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others that have been tried" - Churchill

Depends what drugs; alcohol is probably the worst, it impaired your mind and your body is not designed to consume it. Cannabis however, if from its original source and without tampering has profound benefits on the mind, if not to say the least you have a broader perspective.@DesertGhost
