Why Are We Still There?

Seriously consider our involvement in this mess! Why are we still there?

Every day there are news reports about more deaths. Every night on TV
there are photos of death and destruction. We occupied this land, which we
had to take by force, but it causes us nothing but trouble.

Many of our children go there and never come back. Their government is
unstable, and they have loopy leadership. Many of their people are
uncivilized. The place is subject to natural disasters, which we are
supposed to bail them out of. Why are we still there?

There are more than 1000 religious sects, which we do not understand.

Their folkways, foods and fads are unfathomable to ordinary Americans. We
can't even secure the borders.

They are billions of dollars in debt and it will cost billions more to
rebuild, which we can't afford. It is becoming clear... . . . . . . .

- WE MUST PULL OUT OF CALIFORNIA!

 

Good one, but you should include Miami, Fl. in that too.

 

Our natural disasters are miniscule compared to Florida's, and our property is still a bajillion times more valuable than yours, no matter where you live.

We can secure the border, we just won't until somebody blows something up. You see, in a democracy where half the population is illegal, it's hard to restrict that half of the population.

And our children invent the fads that your children worship. It all comes from California, and all you kids want to be like us.

And our governor can kick all your governors *****, and our chicks are hotter than your chicks. We got those latina's walking around, and the blonds, oh yes...

And we got a lot of nice cars out here too, lots of highly educated people and lots of colleges.

Yet I would still rather live [almost] anywhere else in the country.

 

I have relatives in East LA and have visited there a few times - it is not really culture shock but it is different. Too many people on too little usable land all trying to drive somewhere and in a hurry. I read somewhere that the California economy ranks by itself higher than something like 80% of other countries in the world. Considering the cost of living out there I can believe that. My sis-in-law pays twice as much in rent for a smaller house than I do for a mortgage (and I live in one of the highest cost-of-living areas inthe Southeast).

They can have the whole state to themselves - I like my country.

 

That is all true beagle 1 the chicks are hot I still have my house up north in Walnut Creek I rent it out man it has trippled in value in since 98. The only thing I didn't like and I was all absorbed in it is how trendy Cali is my friends there would make me laugh they were so concerned about fashion and just things that only women we're into in WA. It's funny they would mow the lawn and sit back and be so proud of themselves like they just built a house

 

Redramnc,

If Kalifornia were it's own country, it would have the seventh largest economy in the world.

 

Oh yes, I forgot about the fact that, quite honestly, we have the best drivers in the world. They would rival Germany.

Until it starts to drizzle. Then the freeways go from 90 MPH Death Race 2000 to a nursing home exodus...

 

 

The truth................you are so right Begle1!
