Our country is not the only one riddled with job loss and pollution. This economy is effecting everyone, not just the US. Canada was also "stolen" from natives along with many other countries as well.

I don't really see our government being secretive...I think they're just stupid people running our country who have been running it for years. Sure, it needs some tweaking, but our system of government is the longest running constitution (if I remember correctly). They tell us what they do, but it's hard to change what we don't like because Americans don't like to unify sucks. I love protesting, but it's hard to get everyone off the couch/laptops/cell phones and whatnot and to care.

I think we should welcome tourists to boost our economy up. I don't understand why we wouldn't want people to come and spend money to help everyone out...

stop being so negative, guys! hahaha

Damn, are all americans like homer simpson?^^ food, drink, TV
--Not all but quite a few
In France law requires the government always to act in a way that people can see through.
Is that not the same in the US?
--Nope. They can do whatever they want, whenever they want for any reason they want regardless of what the people want or what is justified. They call it the patriot act. They operate under a guise of "transparency" but it's all just a ruse. America is loaded with propaganda, and here they call it "news". Based on historical instances of these exact same problems, it's headed in a very bad direction. What makes it worse is all the Homer Simpson Americans who just bend over and take it, and believe all the propaganda. The Homer Simpsons are complacent- they know it's BS they just don't care or they like the drama, it's become a soap opera.
How can beef jerky be bad for my body? Apparently it's just pieces of beef.
--Yep just dried out strips of beef. Some beef jerky here has a lot of preservatives and other things added to it because it is mass produced (like most things found in America) but if you make your own or buy it from someone locally or something it's probably just dried beef. Beef jerky is very popular out here in the west because a lot of the native reservations make it traditionally, in other words they simply strip and dry the beef. That kind (natural) is only bad for you in the way that meats are bad (cholesterol, etc).
I'm a vegetarian and have been since I was a kid, but I loved beef jerky before I stopped eating meat. I make soy jerky, it's just ground up and pressed soy protein that has been flavored with teryaki and dried in a dehydrator. Yummy.

I already came here and yes it was a really good experience and I met many people, but I don't like to be considered as a tourist, and my goal is to leave my town and build a new life behind the american flag.
I'm so perplexed (is that the right word?) when I hear many americans and frenchs talking about the american government since the 9/11. In France law requires the government always to act in a way that people can see through.

American food is known to be bad for health because of how fat it is and because of over eating. I was open- mouthed to see a queue in a fast food at 4:30 PM lol.

About dread wax, I don't like it or use it but I think if it's still on the market after several years, it would means that it satisfy at least a sufficient number of customers to make sellers prospers.

You grown in the US and habitude makes us want to leave our birthplace, so you 'll easily see the negative sides of your country.
Ausralia seems to be a very great place that I'd love to visit, but to have traveled around the US I can tell you that there a thousand of beautiful places and amazing people, and I WANT TO EAT BEEF JERKY, BURGERS AND DONUTS ALL DAY LONG !!!!!!! ^^

I met an american from Michigan in Marseille a couple of years ago and he said to me that it was a far more beautiful than his american hometown.
I think we all would to live in the neighbour house^^
Why do you think the US sucks?
Beef jerky is the damn best thing I ever eat lol

yeah, don't come here! it sucks!

one thing i have noticed
many oeople feel they must compromise theyre dreads for a menial job
but i see many people in high paying jobs who do not compromise and grow them naturally.

i see people crochreting and waxing and bending over backwardss to have inoffensive dreads just to be walmart greeters or gas station attendents,
but i know natural dreadies who jave dreads past theyre knees in all sorts of careers
the dean of a local university as well as 2 professors and the network admin
docrtors
homeopathyhs and choropractors
chefs and limo drivers
a rocket scientist
a ceo
a civil rights lawyer
a cop
several teachers

the people who feel they need to compromise themselves for some reason seem to end up in low paying jobs wghile those who respect themselves and stick to what they believe in get paid what they are worth




at the same time ive seen several freinds cut theyre dreads in the hopes of getting a certain job..and they never got that job..but when they refused to cut they got the job they wanted
