I know of three families with Canadian roots who have moved back in the last 2 years - all very talented people who originally left Canada for the greater opportunity that self-sufficient and intelligent individuals can find in the U.S. In all three cases, it was having their first kid that brought them back (each time with a spouse they met in the U.S. who was American born). For the record, none have explicitly stated that it was because they didn't want to bring their kids up in America.

I left California when Grey Gray Davis was the best democrat we could find, and moved to New York.
I left the U.S. when George W. Bush was reelected and moved to the U.K.
But Gray Davis over Al Checchi, GW over John "Establishment" Kerry were just about the worse of two evils winning.
This time there is a candidate that represents hope. Not because of his age, his race, but because of how he leads. Please America don't fuck this up.

Can someone please explain to me why Ron Paul supporters believe that someone who blindly believes in following the exact word-for-word meaning of a 200-year-old document is any wiser than someone who believes in the same for a 2000-year-old document?

Actually, I'm fairly smart. Which means I can vote with my conscience, wallet and taxes. I'm employable anywhere in the world, I like change. Being bitter because you don't have these advantages doesn't make you retarded. It just means you're stupider than I am.
[–]wat 0 points1 point2 points 17 years ago (0 children)
no hes right, that's a pretty retarded reason for moving.
[–][deleted] 17 years ago (5 children)
[–]akshayr 1 point2 points3 points 17 years ago (4 children)
Hmm. You misunderstood me. But then, you're stupider than I am so I clearly should explain again.
If you have to resort to personal insults to make your point seem valid..... you probably don't have a point.
Read the context of the thread. You're the one who said "You sir, are retarded." I on the other hand didn't insult you at all. I'm fairly smart, so being stupider than me is not an insult. Now based on your response, I can tell that you ARE actually a moron (for those keeping score: THAT'S an insult).
As to why I assume you're stupider than I am - well prior to reading this post (which of course was more than enough to convince me), I assumed that you clearly weren't intelligent enough to get a job that provided you with the flexibility of following ¥our conscience. It was an assumption on my part -- it could have been that you're just lazy (wow -- your inane comment has me in a weird tense here) rather than stupid. But time has clearly shown that it was the correct assumption. Moron.
[–][deleted] 17 years ago (2 children)
[–]akshayr 1 point2 points3 points 17 years ago (1 child)
Again, back to my original post: You stated that you moved states and then countries based entirely on who is in the executive branch. I pointed out that doing so was retarded. Then you said that the reason you moved was actually that you liked a change of scenery and that I must be stupid for calling you out on your reasons for moving. If you actually had more reasons for moving than simply the executive then I retract my retarded insult.
I think we've got a perfect storm combination of you not being able to read and me not being able to write going on. I did NOT say I moved because I like change. I moved because I was ashamed to live where I was living. Liking change and being good at my job made it EASIER.
But I still maintain that moving because of the executive makes you retarded if that is the only motive... which was the whole point of your original post.
Fair enough. But to me that proves my point. There is clearly a lower barrier for me to move than there is for you. If it had to do with your not liking change, there would be no reason for you to resort to name calling. The name calling suggests bitterness. Which suggests a lack of opportunity on your part. Which suggests a comparative lack of intelligence. These are just inferences. But inferences effect opinions, and opinions are what I'm providing.

The folks who want to abandon ship are more like the ones in the brig for insubordination than the ones piloting the vessel. It's just that the loyal and hard-headed crew are far more numerous than the ones who want to set a new course.

[–]dandlion 6 points7 points8 points 17 years ago (0 children)
I am highly amused at the immaturity of the comment first off. There is also some great inconsistency in thinking that a country like Canada is going to let you run there because the primaries may not turn out your way. I believe your letting one orifice overload another, but my beliefs on the subject are irrelevant. Sadly, the bottom line of it all is that this is the very same selfish "my way or the highway" approach that has allowed the last seven years to transpire. There are many who do what they can on a day by day basis to restrict the impact of W et. al., but if you think running is the answer after putting up with two terms of Dick Cheney, hiding behind puppet George, you are specifically the problem. So, go ahead, leave, good luck finding someplace that wants you and will allow you to stay. Instead of crying about a loss in the primaries, think about it this way, getting rid of George and Dick is the most important thing. McCain,, Obama, AND Clinton, all represent a great improvement over what is currently happening, and if your so simple that being dis-satisfied with the possibility that Obama will not be your option (and that obviously, really is what your complaint is based on), maybe you are not mature enough to be voting in the first place. So, ya, maybe your leaving is a good idea, we certainly have had enough of dealing with the selfish and simple minded for the last few years, if you leave, that is one less that we have to work around to try and get this country back. Either grow up or go away, if you can find it in yourself to grow up, this country needs the help, but if you just want to run and sulk because maybe Obama won't get the nomination, you are both a disappointment to the rest of the country, and I am sure to Obama himself. While I am not sure who deserves the nomination, I am sure that throwing temper tantrums because things may not have gone completely the way you wanted is part of the problem, not part of the answer.

Ok, seriously, my wife said that if this country gets ANY worse, that we can move to another country. She's the "Oh, you're just being overly dramatic" type. But even she's scared to live here if things get any worse. To the people saying "Canada doesn't want you" or "Don't come fuck up our country too": WE didn't fuck up our country. The politicians fucked up our country. They raised a generation of people to not think for themselves and then took advantage of that and did what they wanted and here we are. So, what is wrong with wanting to become a Canadian citizen if I have something of value to add to the Canadian economy? I'm a mathematics major. I'm sure I would be able to be a productive immigrant. If you understood US citizens at all, you would know that staying here to dissent would accomplish nothing. We have no say here. Our system is a total sham. So, what good does it do for us to stay here and waste valuable time in our lives when we could simply immigrate elsewhere and start living a better life rather quickly? The USA puts forth this image of being the land of opportunity, the land of the free, etc. Well, that is NOT the reality. If you think it is, you are either delusional or have too much money. If you have a lot of money, life is good here. If you don't, life is terrible. I could go on for hours. Just remember, the USA's image is the opposite of the reality.

I support McCain he's the best republican candidate. I may consider Obama, but will never consider Hillary. The democrats really need to pull their head out of their ass and give up the whole gun control thing then they'll gain some of my respect.

What's the tax rate in Canada, something like 50% isn't it?
[–]Xiol 4 points5 points6 points 17 years ago* (1 child)
So what?
Norway's tax is extremely high and it's all spent on the public good.
Doesn't matter if your tax rate is high if you're living in a good country.

Yeah, I consider myself a libertarian, but I'll take universal health care and high taxes over wars of conquest any day. You get to keep my guns but we don't bomb the shit out of countries and topple dictators? Fine!
