Quoting: Gecko 972986I do not like the way you talk to me. And I most decidedly will not tell you my story on a public forum. I don't prostitute myself - and that includes my personal story. If I wanted to do so I would be on a reality tv tra$h show which is the very opposite of who I am & what I believe in. Dignity. Grace. Integrity. Truth & being real - not a tv tra$h product. Substance over 'glitz'. |

Like China/Japan, but do you blame USA for the tragic split of a nation? I do feel horrible for the poor souls in North, but is USA the bad part.

I don't 'hate' individual Americans but I do despise what their gov't has done to the American continent as a whole. It seems you're too young as well to really grasp the horrors of war. You do not understand Korea or Japan & it's not 'mixed' in the way you seem to 'look' at it... Stop asking. And, more than anything stop telling me I 'hate'. You are the one who can't deal with the truth & that's why you project your anger at me. America is an illusion. Just like your idea of America. Have you ever been to America? Have you ever lived abroad? I don't think you have. And, it takes a minimum of two years to get to truly know a mentality. Just 'travelling through' isn't enough. I suggest you travel on your own into the deep parts of the South or the Bible belt (Georgia, Mississipi, Idaho, Kentucky, West Virginia, aso) - off the beaten track. Americans here now what I mean. You don't. America is nothing what you 'believe' it to be. Last Edited by Quartz on 05/17/2010 05:46 PM |

Not stuck in the one size fits all (or none in reality) Eurozone mess. Quoting: QuartzThe UK is even more at risk to default than the entire €urozone. Will The U.K. Be The Next European Nation To Experience A Massive Debt Crisis? Published on 05-15-2010 By Michael Snyder - BLN Contributing Writer Now that the Greek debt crisis has been "fixed" by a gigantic pile of more debt, many are wondering which European nation will be next to experience a massive debt crisis. Increasingly, all eyes are turning to the U.K. and their public debt that is spiralling out of control. The U.K. government's deficit is projected to be approximately 13 percent of GDP in 2010, which is even worse than Greece's 12.5 percent figure. Right now the public debt of the U.K. is "only" at 68 percent of GDP, but three years ago it was sitting at about 40 percent, so as you can see the national debt of the U.K. is absolutely exploding in size. In fact, it is now being projected that the public debt of the U.K. will exceed 100 percent of GDP within the next three years. Considering the fact that citizens of the U.K. are some of the most highly taxed people in the world already, there just is not much room for raising more revenue. So obviously there is a problem. A massive, unchecked, out of control problem that threatens to blow out the entire U.K. economy. And considering the fact that it took just about everything that Europe could muster to bail out poor little Greece, how in the world is Europe going to be able to bail out the U.K. when their debt crisis violently erupts? If Greece almost brought down the euro and the financial system of Europe, then what would a financial implosion in the U.K. do? Considering the fact that the Greek economy is approximately 16% the size of the U.K. economy, it is very sobering to think what a "Greek style" debt crisis in the U.K. would mean for the entire world. But if something is not done rapidly it will happen. There's a chart I can't copy & paste into here. This is the link to the whole article. [link to www.blacklistednews.com] how about 427% of GDP for Britain's debt?
