Yea it would have to be some big concerted effort (like obamacare) i believe
That seems a little flawed to say the least, that big policy changes can only take place every 4yrs with a 'government cycle'.

This is America's fault.

But also the Republicans.

Dems/Repubs change with the times.

Did you know that originally, most democrats were southern gentlemen who were pro-slavery, and that the Republicans got a stranglehold down south aftet because they were more progressive and pro civil rights? Then it eventually it all changed when JFK came into play.


Also, this is definitely the republicans fault, since they've also threatened to shut down every year since Obamas been around. I give this maybe a week.

I'm a Libertarian and If anyone re-elects any of these clowns who let the government be shutdown on either side of the party lines shame on you. Think we need a total wipe of whoever is in any seat and a fresh start with people who actually want to do their damn jobs.

It's a good investment too, as an expat I think it's important to have a bit of foreign money, always got a few pounds and euros in the safe

Dunno, I probs couldn't be arsed to even go to the shop for the amount of money I'd be dealing in. Sort of thing I don't consider worthwhile unless I'm gonna be making thousands off.

shouldn't you be busy calling out people for "racism" when you really just have a giant stick up your ass?
