The people of those foreign countries are very, very ignorant. They
looked curiously at the costumes we had brought from the wilds of
America. They observed that we talked loudly at table sometimes. They
noticed that we looked out for expenses and got what we conveniently
could out of a franc, and wondered where in the mischief we came from.
In Paris they just simply opened their eyes and stared when we spoke to
them in French! We never did succeed in making those idiots understand
their own language.
Why, it was like reading about France and the French, before the ever memorable and blessed Revolution, which swept a thousand years of such villany away in one swift tidal-wave of blood -- one: a settlement of that hoary debt in the proportion of half a drop of blood for each hogshead of it that had been pressed by slow tortures out of that people in the weary stretch of ten centuries of wrong and shame and misery the like of which was not to be mated but in hell. There were two "Reigns of Terror," if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the "horrors" of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror -- that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves......

Cocky? Me absolutely, never shied away from confrontation.
Let's talk economics..anyone.
For an intelligent discourse one must be versed in economics.....Start with Adam Smith: wealth of nations. We will study macro as well micro economies of scale..Cannot say these are the greats, even lessor the greatest, Melton Friedmon, all the way to kaynesian..the trickle down king of Reagon eco-policy.
Lost my MBA because I did NOT buy into this Bullshit.
Bottom line is this ( that is your balance sheet) also specialize in accounting: The Democrats want to starve and sanction 10's of millions of the global population,....wtf , is that O-kay with you tree huging vegies? quietly the lib cannot face this damage to humanity they claim to protect? WTF.
At least the GOP is up front about the intentions of the US: bribe bomb burn. scorched earth policy
they call us useless eaters if we do not buy into consumerism.
kosmicdebris says buy more stuff and speed up the end, let's us get this abortion over with.
.................keep fighting the good fight, with you minds a weapons..........................
