Why do non-Americans insist on posting to American newsgroups?
Can't they do ANYTHING without America? They'll always be the Third World
since America has been wiping their noses, feeding them, and paying for their
existence since before World War II.

More to the point why do Americans persist in posting their political crap
on Travel and other newsgroup which have nothing to do with that subject!!

Don't badmouth those foreigners. Especially while you can't live without
their oil, their labor, their clothes, shoes, electronics... and their
money. Yes, those hungry foreigners are providing cash for your government,
without which it would go bankrupt in a big way. You can't even send your
men into space without the Russians anymore.

One thing that the great American dream cannot create is food without water.
Be it beef or beets. China can't make it for them. Mexico water is unfit to
use. Desalination is out of the question as they barely have enough power
now to sustain their present lifestyle.
The great 'American Dream' is about to become the 'Great Nightmare' in the
next decade.
Better they stay home and fix their own problems rather than running around
the world telling everyone else how to live their lives.

My guess is the UN's HDI will have you pegged at about 10'th this year.

The ultimate point is why do people insist on posting irrelevant stuff
to irrelevant newsgroups? If people have a gripe about one group of people
or another, wouldn't it be best to just post it to a newsgroup that is
relevant - and remove those that aren't?

You mean, in the way that you crossposted this to soc.culture.canada,
misc.immigration.canada, can.politics, rec.travel.europe, and
alt.tasteless.jokes?

Gee whizz, I thought it was a "LOST" news group. So I guess If I am French,
I can't post? What if I'm Cuban, or even Japanese? If I can communicate in
english in an english speaking group, WHAT"S THE DEAL?

The Russians won the second world war, despite what you've been told.
As well, the third world is hardly better off because of the Excited States

Do some research on Lend Lease and Amtorg. If not for stealing and extorting millions
of dollars and invaluable technology from the United States, the Soviets would not have
survived their own internal failures, let alone been competent to engage in WWII.
