As a dual citizen then you have the best of both worlds right... An atypical situation.. like an anchor baby.. (Best man at my wedding had that good fortune) Along with summers in Martha's Vineyard... Accident of birth.. not really earned correct ? Few have that luxury.. but would be a nice game to be able to play. Fortunately I can pay if I need to. So far I have not had to..

I am not a raving socialist and I like my capitalism very much thank you. We have done very well here as capitalists in my family and I would not have it any other way... However.. many in government and in control are not there on their own merit but because of birth.. dumb luck... not work.. Just like royalty.. It is dangerous for us as a society to have this in place... Many stupid people get to be in control whereas others that may have contributed far more cannot because of uneven playing field in healthcare and education... Better and even access to those too things are important... It's a species thing.. Won't fix the issue but certainly mitigate it.. Beyond that I quite agree with a lot of what you say.

Ha your link was interesting for the name at the bottom. I had a very bright unassuming hard working kid working under me with that name.. He was a Waterloo kid through their coop program.
