No, Russian and German Jew is what gives me my color.

I don't hate America, I just hate what it's becoming. The America I was born in 40 years ago is gone, and I will never see it again.
I don't hate Belgium, but no way in hell would I live there.
Oh, and the reason for Australia over NZ, is I think there immigration laws make it easier to enter and work. Both seemed like great places to live.

Yeah, but you once bitched at Akuma for saying that he'd rather live in France. I just thought that was some big hypocrisy coming from you. Whatever.

For 200 years, the US used to stand for something. I want to live in the country that follows those views.
When I was born, the US was the best country in the world with respect to that. Not anymore. If our government wants us to follow in Europe's footsteps then fine. I just don't wish to go there.
I want to live under the form of Government that's closest to the US in 1920 (and add in civil rights). That country, I think is Australia. It's not the US, and nothing in washington at the moment tells me it ever will be.

We all know how that decade ended.

We know how... but amusingly nobody knows why.
I believe the most commonly believed theory among economists currently is debt deflation cause by the Federal Reserve stepping in and trying to fix a regular depression. Forcing a "great" depression.
The theory being that depressions are natural since the world moves in cycles, however being part of a natural depression isn't great for your political life, so you try your best to postpone it... and just make matters worse.
Things start slowing down, so the fed lowers interest rates... so more people invest, and more people... however these people shouldn't be investing and take risks they probably shouldn't... and bam. You've got a big problem.
