If black people feel the way cloud and nolio do, then I guess white and black people generally do not have mutual interests.

If that is true, then you will have no problem copulating and spending the night with a middle aged and morbidly overweight woman with an asymmetrical face. So go prove it to us that you would. Video tape the entire affair and show it to us. Then I'll believe you.

Rooster,

Seriously, all you need to do to win this argument is ask this.

"Please provide empirical support or how I would test that the US ought to do anything." The libs will be unable to provide an answer to your question, because there isn't one.

Then you can go on to say that the evidence supports the hypothesis that states pursue their own interests and power.

You will win hands down.

Kal,

Not all non-western cultures are barbaric. Japanese culture (though becoming more westernized) is very civilized. But one thing for sure is that hip hop culture is very barbaric. Not all African-Americans model their culture after hip hop culture, but I have seen that most do. So yes, I am calling the majority of African-Americans barbarians.

What's great is that you can see foreign exchange students from Africa at our University campus. They are typically intelligent, they speak good English, and they dress and act western. It's a big relief from the zoo you see outside middle class America.

___

As for there being a race war on African-Americans, it is bs. The drugs and gang wars are entirely your own fault. Impoverished African-Americans are too lazy to get an education so they can earn a good living legitimately, so they turn to selling drugs which has the highest return for the smallest investment. From this drug trade, a logical consequence is weapon trafficking and gang wars to monopolize the drug market. Moreover, from being uneducated and overall poor, risky sexual behavior is the result. That's why the majority of African-Americans are born out of wed lock and raised by a single parent.

Now I will say that in a position of poverty, it is very rational to pursue the drug dealing and gang option. However, it isn't perceived well by white people, and that's why we tend to be suspicious.

There's no point in having racial pride when there are no gene differences beyond basic morphology. The fact that I have white skin and an Asian person is Asian is a result of a negligible number of genes that were a result of quick adaptions to a geographic environment. Beyond these superficial morphological differences, there are no major differences in physical or mental prowess between people of supposed races.

Eliminate your barbarian culture of hip hop and embrace western culture, and then we will discuss treating your people like mature adults. Not all of you are that way, some African-Americans are very civilized and worked their way to the middle class. One such African-American is my best friend. However, only a small handful match that profile. Until the majority of you grow up, I hope that the majority of you stay in jail.

SD,

I did not imply that the British people are stupid, and nor am I concerned about the fact that street signs are removing apostrophes. So it's a moot point when you mention dates of other English-speaking countries that removed apostrophes from street signs decades or centuries earlier.

My concern is the claim by one commentator that apostrophes confuse people, which is why I quoted it, and that claim from a local is a disturbing suggestion on the status of British education. The only comparison I made implied that the US must value grammar education more than Britain does, not that Americans were better educated overall to Britons. I also implied that the puzzling response from people in Britain toward apostrophes suggests a downward trend in the quality of British education.

'"Apostrophes denote possessions that are no longer accurate, and are not needed," he said. "More importantly, they confuse people. If I want to go to a restaurant, I don't want to have an A-level (high school diploma) in English to find it."'

LOL, wtf? How can an apostrophe confuse you? Everyone in the US knows it denotes a possessive... you don't need a honors high school diploma to know that.

Nobody doubts that the US is the supreme military power on earth. Hell, it accounts for 50% of the world's military spending, and that's with just 5% of our GDP.

We are saying that our interventionist policies have been motivated by ideology or short-sightedness rather than strategy or pragmatism..

There is a tiny little country just above Germany, which is more free-market than most of the rest of Europe, and it's doing a lot better than any of you. It's also anti-immigrant and more conservative.

If you want to get rich, buy assets that appreciate in value.

The reason why so many people are poor is because they buy too many assets that depreciate in value, and often times they get in debt buying them.

It's real simple.

Schniepel,

That is an outrageous amount of taxes.

And 2512 euro is equivalent to $2817.74. I personally make $1,400 a year (well doing nothing), which is 1,055 euro. It's also tax free.

I also live on a $12,000 a year budget. $16,000 if you include education fees. That's 9,049 euro or 12,066 euro. My apartment takes most of my budget though.
