Personally it's an individual liberty issue for me.  I can't own forearms of the type 
or in the numbers that  I do here.  The media has very severe restrictions placed on 
what it can and can't report, in the name of national security, and I can be held for 
as long as the government sees fit on charges of terrorism. Unfortunately we here in 
the U.S. seem to be falling right into step with most of Europe as we slash our way 
through the constitution seeking a safer tomorrow.

Yeah right.  Because it has worked so well in Israel, India, England and al the other 
countries that gave up liberty for security.  Hehe.  Oh well, anyone have a map to 
Galt's Gulch?  Sorry got into a Rand frame by other posts.

So, I don't get this phenomenom know as "I can't stand the UK".
Am I missing something?
Am I blind?

Living here has such fantastic advantages. You can travel wherever you
want, whenever you want. The public transit system, while having delays
now and then (what one doesn't) is tops.

You've got easyjet and ryan air, and all these other air services that
cart you around EUROPE! For a mere pittance ...
The culture and history and architecture is fantastic.
Scenery is great.
Some of the best skiing in the world is a stone's throw away.

Whilst America is broad and vast, and people drive larger vehicles ...
The grass isn't always greener. I certainly enjoyed my stay there ... ;)
(30 years) ... But it's not an oasis. There's still taxes. And a lot of
them. Things aren't ALWAYS cheaper. Depends on where you go. Jobs aren't
any better. In fact you get more paid holidays here in the UK.

Just confused ... Enlighten me please?!


Cheers,
Erika
