True, but this was in kandahar, I expect not much as changed....Except perhaps the selection.

Used to be? As late as 2011 I saw entire businesses dedicated to selling pirated movies.

Oh, I don't know about that. I think Musk as a unique ability to spend money.

Guess those definitions changed since I last looked. Used to mean anything that's somewhat obsessive. "I have a fetish for collecting paperclips"

Hell, I'd say #3 of cult is what fetish used to mean.

Well, people saying right is violently psycho, just pointing out that the left is just as bad.

On the low end I haven't seen wages increase, if anything they've fallen, but they may be more to do with the whole of 2020 craziness that resulted in even greater worker shortages amongst the laborers, and the system comming back to equilibrium.

Foreign policy blunders? Pretty sure that's the first thing Biden did. Jump out of Afghanistan so fast we abandoned Europe and trampled some of our own.

Then there's the whole, cripple the European economy thing. I know there's more to it than that, but with the Ukraine thing, America really pressured Europe into crippling itself.

But I digress. I'm not trying to defend trump, nor attack Biden. Just note my casual observinces of my local economy.

But what if you are an Italian cop?

I feel that the (crazy) leftists would support this.

Well, the standing president isn't exactly the ideal picture of someone who isn't facist...

Most people I meet seem reasonable until they get behind a keyboard... Or a wheel.

Thank you.
