[QUOTE="klein, post: 831086, member: 23950"] I envy the cheap living in the US, yes. You can't beat it. MY money goes a long distance there. A Quality Inn hotel that I booked on priceline in Fort Lauderdale, with swimming pool, full hot buffett breakfast, coffee machine in room, all soaps and shampoo, towels, ice provided, was $45 a night. Here, anything close to that, add atleast another $100 to it ! I also love the cheap booze and cigs, and restaurant prices are half at what they are here. But, when I hear people working for $10 or less per hr in the US, that sucks, including UPS preloaders. And, more guns is not the answer, either is keeping more then half the US population either under insured or not insured at all, regarding healthcare. Don't like it, that you aren't metric, like the rest of the world is. It's odd, I find myself sometimes more at home in Mexico, then being in the US, because they have kilometer signs on their roads, sell gas by the liter, and meat/fruit/veggies by the kilogram. Temperatures in Celcius. And coloured money, like ours , too ! LOL I know America doesn't like changes and they are very conservative. But this conservativness is taking it's toll. It's Globalization, has been for over decades now, wake up USA, and join the rest of the world ! [/QUOTE]
