August1991

Coffee? Beans? Nothing? In the morning, each person eats according to habit Later, we try different foods.

The US federal government is promising more than it can deliver. Too many people expect social security, medicare. The US federal government is a Ponzi scheme. The US federal government is borrowing at a faster rate than it can collect money.

And imagine if the Democrats had also won the federal House and kept the Senate as it was. What would America be today? The federal Supreme Court would be primary Bulwark/Safeguard - rail protection. But you Americans also have States. You are a federation.

Trudeau Snr played that card rarely. In the midst of our nationalist debates, late 1970s, Trudeau Snr went to Washington and said in the American Congress: "We in Montreal want our team to win. Yet all the players are foreigners." (Expos - baseball) "And you want your team to win, Yet the players are foreigners." (Capitals - hockey)

Cereal box? Typical American. The true test of globalism is what people have for the first meal of the day.

1. This movie was about abortion, divorce, adoption. 2. IMHO, well directed. Often compared to "Letters To Three Wives" 3. Imagine the times. So many women had lost their brothers, husbands, men.

US? Russia? China? Government, society, State? Place? If any place is borrowing more than what its people can pay, asking more of others; it is not sustainable.

Wow! He sounds too much like Trump!

Dougie hallucinates.

I am real. I am a real person. For many years, I have posted on this forum. Dougie and Robo answer/post too quick. ===== Welcome to AI. Scary.

Paul Krugman described the US federal government as a tank with a pension system. The US is not sustainable.

Disagree, AG, you seem like a typical anglo. How do most English-Canadians view Americans? How do you view Trump? ==== Many people in Quebec largely view you (Anglos) the same way. As you view Trump, they view you.

I am Canadian - North American. And I can't buy good cheese. The selection is so small. === BD, when I travel to Europe, the first thing I do is go to an ordinary grocery store and buy cheese. I tend to agree.

Disagree. In 2016, the Republicans chose Trump

Disagree. Many federal Liberals think that Carney will be our next PM.

Trudeau Snr was born in 1919. Nixon in 1913. I know that Nixon traveled from Montreal to Quebec City by train in 1991. (Both were out of office.) Surely they met. If you know, spill. ===== According to the BBC, after Agnew plead nolo-contendere (no contest - Americans now have an Alford plea, don't ask) in October 1973, Agnew and Nixon never met.

Breakfast. The most traditional meal of the day. We can all eat/try weird stuff later but morning is different. Our true vegan self is revealed.

Trump is a showman. The Mexican President has sent thousands of soldiers to the border. === But he has a point.

While in western Ukraine once, I asked a woman about her city's history. Her answer? Hungarians never get along with anyone.

By curiousity,I have travelled to western so-called Ukraine, Rumania, Slovenia, Slovakia, Poland - remnants of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. The East-Prussia parts of Poland. These places, cities are wonderful. The Germans did it right. Wherever the Russians or Turks were, it's crap.

Trump is correct. We Canadians cannot buy decent cheese. We have no choice. Foreigners cannot sell us cheese. Our tariffs on dairy products are high.

You buy a house at $300,000 -flip it- sell at $500,000. Capital gain tax? You have a business, pay people, keep some for yourself, pay corporate tax rate. SALT! Trump fixed this in America. In Canada, we don't have it.

I disagree. I work and pay income tax. Why should the money you earn from the increase in your home value/sale be taxed any different?

Federal Liberals (Ontario/Quebec/Maritimes) have this obtuse belief that they always win. Laurier, Mackenzie-King, Laurier, Pearson, Trudeau, Martin, Chretien. Liberals win! ==== Well, Ignatieff lost.
