You mean poor like this?

The US in #2 in GDP per capita. Luxembourg seems to have snuck ahead.

Could be worse. You could lead here.

I'll personally vouch for Mexico. I've bought my share of Mexican cops.

How old are you anyway?
Old enough to recognize a bubble when I see one- -and get out of the way with my money. How old are you? Maybe you should do a bit a reading. It really isn't that tough.

I don't like having to pay double to travel to Europe than a few short years ago.
A few years ago, oil sold at $10 a barrel. And OPEC was seriously unhappy. Now it's more like $45. You think that migh have something to do with those ticket prices?

If we had half billion dollar deficits in the 90s, I would have had the same complaints. But we did not.
We din't have 9/11/201 yet either, did we? Or was your plan simply to ignore that "inconvenience".

Did you know more people died there than at Pearl Harbor? We went to war over Pearl Harbor.

I'll be back. There are more errors in your claims. I need to find the documentation to demolish them.

So how is it you know so much about the cost of travel to Europe WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE A PASSPORT?

Yes?

Why would you be buying plane fare? As a secretary for the men doing the traveling?
