"With the invaders gone"

Here's some American history for you... the Europeans are the invaders.

"Those people you know who are picking up cigarette butts and collecting aluminium cans could go and harvest crops"
Why should they? Collecting cans pays better, and no withholding for taxes. Those people want their fruit picked? Try paying decent wages. Maybe treat their workers as treasured resources instead of a drag on profits.

Ah yes

More pot-shot brilliance from down under, down under

Please continue to regale us with more of that VVV nonsense

This board should be exposed to the full measure of intellectual firepower that you bring to bear in other venues

Be forewarned though, there are precious few here who will be enamored of your gibberish

...and recs aren't allowed so your missives will dissipate as the farts in the wind they so resemble
