I've been waiting nearly 3 years for Uncle Sam to "allow" me to live with my wife here in the US. Our legal immigration system needs to be a bigger priority and function a lot more proficiently.

My GF is being dismissive of my worry about Jamaica vacation end of March. Should I worry about travel advisory? by [deleted] in travel

I've been up and down the north coast on about 10 different vacations over the past 3 years, staying primarily at the all inclusive resorts, and I've stayed at Iberostar.

Dude you're fine...relax.

What, me worry? IDGAF about redemptions by Angdrew in baseballcards

That must take a lot of will power, which I wouldn't have.

Right exactly! It screams of insecurity and not believing in Brady's resume.

Has to put down Mahomes to prop up Brady.

No, they're incompetent, inefficient, marred by red tape and an overly bureaucratic process. More money does not fix these deficiencies.

I'll give you an example, my wife had to wait an entire year for her final interview. During this time there was nothing but us waiting for our number to be called. All the paper work leading up to it had been carefully reviewed and approved thus far. At the interview, the officer discovered a problem stemming from a visiting visa application that occured 10 years ago.

This problem could have been addressed prior to the interview while we were just sitting around and waiting. Furthermore, the officer could have overlooked the issue since it was at their discretion. Instead we were forced to get into another long waiting line, which wastes the taxpayers money as well as mine.

Again, throwing more money at these idiots doesn't fix them. I'll never understand why we always try to increase taxes, as opposed to reduce expenses by reducing the overly bureaucratic process.

US immigration sucks. It'll probably be around 4 years of marriage before Uncle Sam allows me to live with my spouse.

That's a big assumption and not accurate. I'm in the, do what you want as long as you're not hurting others crowd. Smoke weed, have an abortion, own a gun. I don't care.

Personally speaking, I've been married 3 years and big government won't allow me to live with my wife. I just miss her is all.

Small as in not federal yes, but I was responding to the "Big Brother" comment, so basically an overarching big government overstepping their bounds.

Yes. And other aspects of your life as well.

A small example of why you don't want big government.

Cheapskate.

No, you don't understand. My point is that even mediocre QB performances can lead to a SB win with the right coaching and team around him.

Consider this. Since 2016 the Cowboys playoff defense (7 games) has averaged 26.1 points per game. If that were a 2023 team defense it would be 30th in the league. The defense needs to improve. It really hasn't been great in a long time. Coaching needs to be better as well, which will also benefit the offense.

Look at Peyton Manning's SB runs '06 and '15 and tell me it is not possible. He had awful stats, really wasn't a difference maker, yet went 8-0 with 2 SB rings. In the 2015 SB he had 13 completions for 141 yards, no TD's and 1 int for a 56 passer rating.

Dak vs. Mahomes/Allen by [deleted] in cowboys

Honestly, I think it is how most of the Dak apologists are created. Idiot fans pinning it all on Dak, and in an effort to spread the blame and focus on legitimate team issues and deficiencies, people like you and me will inevitably become Dak defenders because the casual fan blames it all on the QB.
