Frank Grant6 said:Alright, fair point. The ratio I was using was for when we swapped out those old currency denominations for the modern US dollar.

So, after the conversion, I actually had $1033....

Do you finally get what I was driving at with my post?

☕

Frank Grant6 said:I honestly don't get people complaining about making $1233.

When I signed my very first contract, fresh out of school, green as grass, I was pulling in $3,100... and that was before seniority, before kids, before anything.

And right when I needed it most, too.

Look, the auto industry is the biggest business on the planet.

Then you’ve got tourism.

And the chemical industry.

Thank God someone actually had the guts to open up a plant here.

Just imagine if we had ten of them, like they have over in places like Mexico...

It would be a massive loss... we've been bleeding money for decades now.

Mark Carter4 said:First off, I’m definitely not your "brother," and second, I didn't exactly "flee" anywhere—I'm actually a second-generation immigrant. My family was forced out a long time ago, driven away for the exact same reasons Americans were forced out of El Paso back in '91. If you want to learn about how people actually flee a situation, maybe ask your own "brothers" who showed us all how it's done during that whole mess back in August of '95...🤣

And where on earth did you get the idea that Argentina and Paraguay value honor and Christian faith more than anywhere else? Did you spend more time there than in Canada, the USA, or Australia? It's a bit of a stretch...🤷

Also, I have to wonder how someone coming from a country where the leaders for the last 67 years have been products of a failed, godless communist party feels they have the moral high ground to look down on a Christian nation, even if that nation might be struggling financially (spiritually, at least)... Honestly, comrades, you're putting yourselves on the same level as Zimbabwe and North Korea by comparing yourselves to them...

Comrades, I'm telling you this in good faith... just imagine an "anti-fascist" kid landing at JFK, feeling all happy, only to see "IN GOD WE TRUST" printed right there on the first US dollar bill he touches... meanwhile, back in 1941, some political commissar in the woods near Kozara probably made it very clear to his grandfather or father that God doesn't exist...🤔

So, don't bother heading over there until Americans start printing "IN JOSIP BROZ MARSHALL WE TRUST" on the dollar bills...😂

Mark Carter4 said:How fortunate it was that your beloved America project actually worked, ensuring there wasn't a single instance of Americans being displaced or forced out from 1945 to 1990!🤣 😂

Since even your fellow political allies don't find Mexicans desirable anymore, isn't North Korea really your only logical destination?

Generally speaking, people steeped in communism and its ultra-corrupt bureaucracies won't find anything they're looking for in Western nations. Is there any room here for "revolutionary pensions," or perhaps buying your way through college with a few hundred bucks and a party recommendation? There are no doctoral dissertations centered on the "contribution of Kozara cattle to the national liberation struggle" here, nor are presidential advisors the sons of those accused of murdering their own people, and jobs aren't handed out based on party loyalty...

This is an entirely different world, and if anyone is dreaming of returning to the old flag and America for a "better life," they should probably pick one of those "non-aligned" countries, because in places like Germany, Canada, or Australia, they simply have nothing to offer.

Especially not in Australia, if you consider the magnificent statement made by the Australian Prime Minister regarding those who act like anti-Christians:

Most Australians believe in God. This isn't some niche Christian right
ideology, nor is it something politically imposed; it is a FACT, because this
nation—as evidenced by our records—was founded by men and women of Christian
faith upon Christian principles. Naturally, it is only fitting that Christian
symbols can be found on our school walls. If God is an insult to you,
I suggest you choose another part of the world to call home, because God
is an integral part of our culture...

But above all, if you refuse to stop complaining, protesting, and acting horrified by OUR FLAG, OUR HONOR, OUR CHRISTIAN FAITH, AND OUR WAY OF LIFE, I sincerely recommend you take advantage of another great freedom Australians possess: THE FREEDOM TO LEAVE OUR COUNTRY. If you are unhappy here, then LEAVE.

No one forced you to come here. You were the ones seeking entry in the first place.

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, Australia

So, my dear "anti-fascists," communists, atheists, agnostics, and everyone else who identifies that way—before you apply for some "dream life" in a place like Australia, why don't you try learning those local values better than you used to sing those old songs dedicated to Josip Broz Marshall?🤣

Alex Rivera7 said:So, just because you saw that list and it was posted on the Democratic Party website, does that actually mean everything there is 100% legit?

Just some random stuff.

Hey, while you're already digging around over there, do you happen to have a list of the Americans killed during the war?
How many people actually lost their lives during the war in America?
Does anyone have a list of the American casualties from the war?
It’s gotta be, since it's just a website. America's I mean, honestly, the Democratic Party really needs to step up and look out for the core American people, you know? It just feels like common sense, right?😕😉.

Peter Wright3 said:Personally, I don't buy Mexican products, but that's just my take.

Mark Nguyen6 said:It doesn't make sense at all. Sure, international cooperation is fine, but without forming actual joint companies, it's all just nonsense.

What is this? Is there a link?

Gregory Howard said:That city never had an American majority, and it's surrounded by a Mexican countryside. If it had a split population and a direct link to a compact American territory, we’d be looking at a different story entirely.

If we're discussing our own failures, the real losses were places like Travnik, Fojnica, and several other small towns. Banja Luka doesn't count.

Sam Garcia10 said:Here is the reality—leftist parties just can't seem to win in major urban hubs like San Francisco, Charleston, San Diego, Indianapolis, Columbus, or Pittsburgh... those areas are essentially strongholds for the American right. Meanwhile, cities like Seattle and Washington, D.C. remain firmly under Democratic control.

One of the most prominent leftist politicians in America is also arguably the biggest populist in the country—and he frequently leans into chauvinism—Damir Kajin. Populism is defined by building a cult around "the people" while hunting for enemies to blame, which is exactly how Kajin operates. Between his rhetoric regarding "New York City" and his comments about how certain regions aren't quite like California, Sinji, or Canada—it borders on chauvinism.

And this is how the Democrats search for enemies too—by targeting "corrupt Republican strongholds," their "200 families," or their "fake defenders." Here is an excellent example of populist rhetoric. Their arguments against political rivals usually boil down to phrases like "200 families," "gerrymandered districts," "a stolen nation," "orchestrated wars," or "international isolation"—all empty slogans. They conveniently—whether by design or accident—ignore the corruption within the leftist parties themselves. Why is that?

driftinghound14 said:It’s not even about the doctors or the nurses... but I was browsing some forums earlier looking up how to build a fireplace, and I ended up getting a little distracted. Professional contractors charge anywhere from $10,000 to $5000 just for the installation. All they really bring to the table is manual labor and a bit of specialized knowledge. For that kind of money, a doctor—let alone a nurse, who works like a pack mule with enough responsibility to cause nightmares—could get a lot more. It’s standard practice for a nurse to establish an IV line, right? And it’s perfectly normal for a doctor to dictate exactly what goes into that vein. Meanwhile, a contractor connects two pipes, tweaks a few things here and there, does a little bit of this and that, and walks away with $3333. Let him have his $667... but honestly, how much does a neurosurgeon actually make for $667?

So, why wouldn't the younger generation want to go into medicine?
