    Food inflation

    Keep in mind, that those big trucks get about 6 MPG too. A truck will usually drive about 600 miles per day (max allowed for 1 driver) so thats about 100 gallons. When oil goes up $10 per barrel, thats an extra 25 cents per gallon at the pump which means an extra $25 per day that the truck...

    Obama: Dollar just an Illusion

    How can you say that? America has enjoyed the highest standard of living in the world for decades. If getting used lets you live better than 95% of the world, is that a bad thing?

    Is there a citizen trap in the US?

    Thats really not a good indicator of who is leaving the US. To get a citizenship in another country, you do not have to renounce your US citizenship. In the US, to be a citizen here, you do have to renounce your citizenship in your previous country. Also, the US government requires you to...

    Worst song ever

    They say this is the worst song ever. Lyrics do seem a little lame. But what I think is the creepiest thing about this video is that its sung by a 13 year old girl who is around all these other young teenagers, then at about 2 minutes and 30 seconds in, for no reason whatsoever, a black man...
