Medicare is also no longer paying for a huge percentage of medicines and a smaller percentage of care, making it a tax instead of a health insurance. So if you pay over a $100 for Medicare deducted auto by government, then you have to pay full price for the medicines and a larger part of the physician and hospital bill....your insurance is no longer insurance but an additional tax.

That cost is to make up the shortfall of the trillion dollars Obama took for Obama Care. And that’s not even the Advantage program cuts, no one wins here but the government overspending idiots.

Finland? Putin is thinking about taking Finland for Russia, like Crimea. Scandinavia may not be your best bet.

So now you’re channeling Bill Clinton?

You never cease to amaze me.

Based on some of your other posts, I suspect you rarely feel any pain.

“I suspect you rarely feel any pain.”

Yes, child, I feel no pain at all.
As for your pain, I have no solution, as you make your own.
Go on and live it and love it.

...my ggfather fought for and my gfather and father also fought to keep.

So, in other words, you haven't made anything of yourself. You're sitting on land that you inherited and you think that gives you a right to criticize those of us that choose to be elsewhere. Better pay your taxes or they will take it from you.

I still own about 120 acres in West Virginia that I bought myself. It is being used as a place for my children and grandchildren to enjoy. I built a nice little cabin of around 3000 sq feet. It has a million dollar view and so much wildlife that it can easily feed and support them when the crunch comes.

I have children in VA, NC and OK. I also have 9 grandkids, who I can see anytime I fire up my MacBook Pro and light up the FaceTime application. I established a Family Trust a few years ago, and keep adding to their inheritance, because I am only 66 and not ready to retire. I also don't want to continue to support a Gum't that is nothing like the one I spent some of my earlier years helping to protect.

Life here is good, with everything needed for comfort. I have sweet Pinay bride that is a blessing from God. I have a 5 bedroom house with three workers to help keep everything running and clean. I employ a maid, a groundskeeper and a driver for around $350 per month. I have central air conditioning, a modern kitchen, and a view looking onto Davao Gulf. With my DSL service here, I can stream Hulu and Netflix, surf the internet, and maintain my various websites. I have Cignal Satellite TV beaming to my 2 LED TV's. I'll watch the Nascar Race live if I stay up tonight, or watch the replay tomorrow on Fox Sports. I never miss The Five on FoxNews. I still have a couple of businesses back home to help keep things going, but I cut way back so I don't feed the beasts in DC..

I also own 15 acres in North Carolina, which I also worked hard to buy. My oldest daughter lives in the house I built there, with money I earned by working hard. Nobody gave me anything.

I prefer to live here now, and no matter what you think, it is one of the nicest places to live, among some of the nicest people.

Good luck holding onto that which you inherited. The smelly part seems to be on the asses of your pack! The only turds seen are when I read your posts! Your pack seems to be all about smelling butts.

It's a bit of shame losing people like you two since that is a (admittedly small) part of the demographic destruction of America. I have no problems whatsoever with your choice and I have no idea how we will fix America other than to slow the fall a little bit. But I will slug it out a few more decades here before I succumb. Might be sooner than that.

I'm very glad you're enjoying life in your Turd World sh*thole, coward. I'm even more glad you can't afford to come back. Stay there, and think happy-happy thoughts until the Moose Limbs come to saw your head off with a dull, rusty machete, you lying worm.

BTW, where's the quote, liar?

Dawg soldiers up! Woof, woof!

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

And to think, THIS constitutes intelligent discussion?

Your need to insult is what causes many to shun you, but I have to believe you already are aware of that and you somehow find sick pleasure in continuing to taunt others.

I would respectfully ask that you cease calling our beautiful nation the USSA, as you are doing nothing more than trying to be ‘cute’ and it’s anything but.

Gloating is very unbecoming as you well know.

Nope, that is where you are wrong lil rat turd. I sweat blood right along with them popping brush. So I just did not “inherit” the land, I earned it every time I saddled up or cleared a fence line.

You can live anywhere you want, just do not join in with the lil Rat AW in running down America and join in making it better with solutions.

This is forum known for upholding the values of America not running it down every other sentence like AlexW.

So sorry that I do not feel your pain..Maybe you can put some ice on it :)

Oh man that was great Alex, what a zinger!

I've heard that before, let's see where was it...

Oh yeah.

After Bill Clinton brutally raped Juanita Broaddrick and bit her lips so bad they were grossly swollen and bleeding, he said "You better put some ice on that" as he nonchalantly put on his shades and departed.

One of your heroes is he Alex?

My, my, Alex.

Looks like you’ve picked yourself up another “fan”.

Just can’t help yourself, can you?

Syncro - interested in joining the “AlexW Fan Club”, AKA the “Manger Dawgs”?

I don’t need a larger payment because I have been careful and saved. But a deal was a deal and should have been kept.

Thanks for the invite (Love the name “Manger Dawgs”) but I’m much too busy.

Just happened to see this thread and the gloating of the expats that have found homes so much better than living in (and fighting for the future of) our Great Country.

Chuckled at the posts with the phrase “married your washing machine” lol

Feeding your “one bottle of red wine per day” habit again are you coward? Take your gutless ‘USSA’ crap and shove it. You stay right where you are at little worm. We don’t need surrender monkeys like you anywhere near AMERICA. Damn are the muzzies and their jagged dull rusty blades gonna have fun with you and your “Washing Machine” when they come. WHERE IS THE QUOTE LIAR????
