What can I say? I'm phonetically challenged. I took a shot.

The phonecians were some really smart people.
I like shots too - especially body shots with hotties from Asunción.
:D

Hey that's great, pal. I remember when I could only afford a one week vacation. I'm sure you'll have your account up to $200.00 in no time. Here...have another fig.

They must have an ignore the ignoramus button here somewhere?
 
Quote from Gringinho:

You guys in the US have powerlines along the streets many places - just like other third world countries. I hate that.
:)

You also have rampant crime in the US - like here in Brazil - which also sucks. You probably have a good portion of corruption as well - but it is more a systemic corruption - bias.
that's not the point. the lights would be out because the city couldn't afford them and streets would be constantly laden with criminals roaming the dark streets. go to most parts of africa or some other whole in the wall country and you'll see what i mean. place where they live in shacks that are falling apart. i don't see that in the US.
apparently you've never been here or you've never seen a 3rd world country with true poverty. end of conversation..
 
alot of these people that bad mouth the US come from countries that traffic people and sell them. hardly compares with the United States. Some of the Europeans have their head shoved up their ass they couldn't even comprehend what America is like although many of them are ok with the exception of the one's that are always running their mouth. The big mouth one's are usually the closet nazis. crap at least this isn't like East Berlin or Russia. They tell you what to think and sell their own woman as sex slaves plus the men are heavy into the child porn. Very sick bastards. One thing all these countries have in common is their all money whores for the US. You tell me how that makes the US a 3rd world country? Please your comparing the US to countries like Jamaica, Africa, or some shit holes in South America where people make a buck a day. please shut up!

Well, I've been to Anaheim, LA, SF, San Jose, Denver, Vale, Dillon, Keystone and Atlanta.
Professional and leisure. Of course the US is not a third world country, although it has some really poor places.

I've also visited around 170 other cities in roughly 30 countries around the world. I guess you can say the same...
:D

it is not the end of the conversation because people like you cannot read.
read the poll carefully. it is about the US being bankrupt financially.
Its about the US needing a financial bailout.
these are financial attributes of 3rd world countries. attributes ie collapsing financial institutions , long term decline in the value of currency and government lying about the rate of inflation.

Well, there are a number of homeless people in the US, and there are quite a lot of trailer parks and extremely poor rural areas.
It's not like the US doesn't have extreme poverty anywhere...
