The US has been going downhill for at least 30 years. <br /><br />The mindset of government at all levels in the US is totalitarian, and the corruption of most of the world is mild compared to the idea that you are government property. It is past the point of no return; it's just a question of whether a decent system can be built after the coming disaster. The US needs some immigrants with a good attitude to build that new country, so good look in getting to move there.PaxAmericananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-41764025688858582972010-04-01T00:14:28.824-07:002010-04-01T00:14:28.824-07:00Many would argue it looks like 1937 Germany in the...Many would argue it looks like 1937 Germany in the USSA. Fighting petty criminals may be easy compared to fighting a repressive regime that is going to need 90% of the average serf's assets to keep afloat. The Republicans are no better, so don't get your hopes up about the next election. It's true they spend their time and money on bondage clubs and like children way too much, so they seem safer, but they are just pretending to oppose things like Obama's health care. Spend some time in DC and you will realize that San Francisco is a God-fearing place in comparison. <br /><br />Not that Argentina is a bargain for the average non-polo person. Casey is rich enough to fly all over to never get bored with small-town life.PaxAmericananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-91004026266187973802010-03-31T23:31:17.754-07:002010-03-31T23:31:17.754-07:00Move to Canada.

You need to look beyond the favourable gun laws and grasp that the the USA, like the UK, is turning into a very nasty police state. <br /><br />Given the choice between a semi-lawless, corrupt state like Argentina and an all-seeing, all-knowing, locked down surveillance state like the new USA, I know which one I would choose for liberty. I've lived for a short time in a developing country (Kyrgyzstan) and the one thing I can say is that while it doesn't have the same nice infrastructure, law and order as my own country (the UK), I felt much, much freer without a CCTV camera in my face at every turn or social services and other busybody bureaucrats watching my every move. Oh, and taxation is nowhere near the horror show it is in the G7 countries, and since liberty begins in the pocket...

The other is much easier, but I've known enough jumpers to know that you would never have a feeling of security then.<br /><br />I hope it works out. You seem like the sort of man who exemplifies the ideals that this country grew up on, and I think you would do credit to our nation, should you become a citizen. <br /><br />Would you be considering citizenship?

He is on the record with his views on taking care of the least of his brothers (charity) and his superiority complex over types like Bill Gates and W. Buffett. Those are big shoes to fill and since he's so great, why isn't he filling them? Reminds me of another get-rich-quick Robert Kiyosaki, a complete fraud himself. I remember him in the last 6 months saying he was buying silver in the $3 range. BULL BULL BULL. Silver hit the $4 range, and that was nearly 10 years ago and he wasn't saying a WORD about it back then.<br /><br />The proof is in the pudding. Gates, Jobs, Buffett are rich, Casey is... whatever his newsletters net him.

My spouse spent thousands of dollars and years doing things the legal way, getting raped by the system, lawyers, etc. It's a total scam.<br /><br />I find it laughable how many "union men" have all their racist, bigoted bumper stickers on their trucks in the US saying, "Go home". Why don't they crawl back to their european caves. This is native american land, not the other way around. Come here and work.
