<So I have a suggestion, why don't you sign up to pay taxes in the United States, and send your children here to join the military so that their blood can be left on the battlefield. Then you can talk about what we "should" do and what we owe the world. Then you can speak with some credibility. > On personal side Listen kid we are signed up to pay US taxes since 1987, in 1987 when I saw poverty and inequality of Washington heights and when 125th Street was crime infested and Clinton was no one in Arkansas or a Guv, I bought properties around Columbia University and today this is one of the finest portfolio, now eat your heart, all these taxes are paid in income taxes to massive upgrading that we have undergone. On corporate side in 1981-82 we were responsible for one of the finest development the Park Ave Plaza and 575, 5th Ave with my principals along with Fisher Brothers, have you ever had chance to see this buildings even as a tourist, the CGT on the former on sale was eight figures sum. Now that the issue of taxes is resolved lets go to the blood, my father served in British Land Forces from 1939 than served on the eastern front against the Japanese, as 'kakazais' we are a martial race and hence your vote crap and your democracy crap is out of order here, if I was a US citizen my kids would have definitely served like my older brother did get commission of the Army he is citizen off, I would not combine my hatred of administration with mass cowardice that you display, you are exactly the kind of appeaser that Neville Chamberlain was.
