<<Thanks to immigration of the best and brightest from around the world.>>> We're all immigrants here... <<but their funding derives to some significant extent from cash flowing back from multinational USA companies [McDonalds, Mobil, Microsoft, Monsanto, etc]>>> All American origen...don't need to remind you of that... You obviously enjoy this kind of back and forth intellectual contest of who can prevail in a debate. I will not engage in it...been around it most of my life...I have better, more enjoybable endeavors than carrying a circular converstion on the internet with someone I don't know... <<Which has got nothing to do with what we were discussing, which was who is allowed to make jokes.>>> Anyone is allowed to make jokes and the audience has the choice to react and respond as they choose...ahhh freedom. Ciao, bona nit or bon día in your parts

Maurice, <<<I know Americans think 1 American is worth 5 Indians, but 10 Indians can be hired for the price of one overpaid American. Greater human good is achieved by moving the jobs. It's a global world. Americans should take a Christian look at the world rather than a beggar thy neighbour "those are OUR jobs" approach>>> Americans who think and Americans who shout on radio and cable TV are more likely not the same. There are some Americans who think they are more American than most Americans. If we are the best and the brightest (in a lot of ways I think we are) I am really afraid what is out there in ROW. Mary
