89. I think they are a little braver in north africa than I am
I was at a eastern European Consulate, I over hear two Croatians talking.
one said to the "other aren't you going to try to go to USA"
"The other one said it isn't the land of opportunity any more I am going to Brazil"
He then when on to say, "I have a little money to invest, but I am a little guy, the big corporation own the country,politicians and the courts.
I haven't a chance plus the Americans have no back bone, look whats going on in Tunisia. They don't even put it together."
the first one asked "my dad loves it in the US put what together?"

He answered the top 1 percent have 80% of the money, how am I going to succeed in the USA unless I am somebody's play-toy? laughing who wants a 38yr old Croat.
Then it was hard for me to keep quite because he then said "and Americans are all spineless fools the top 1 percent got a raise bail out money no riots no protest nothing.

Got me to thinking.
