Yes the 70's were a low point but things improved with the ending of the Vietnam war, and the end of Watergate with Nixon's resignation. I'd say 1973 was the low point of the 70's. We were still going nowhere in Vietnam, Nixon's scandal was in the news everyday, we had an oil embargo with gas shortages and wages and prices were frozen by Nixonomics. In short, we were still in a quagmire war, the President was on the verge of being ousted, gas was unavailable and really expensive, and you couldn't get a raise.your pal, Fred |

It's like Martimes South or more accurately Mississippi if it was 99% white.I think that giving Northern Maine to New Brunswick (and having it go to Atlantic Time) and the rest of New England/upstate becoming a province of sorts would work to divide the wealth. I would say that Central/Western New York should be annexed into Ontario due to regional ties but most Canadians would throw a fit about Ontario being able to add 2 million people when they already have 1/3 of Canada's population. |

Not Maine, New Hampshire and to a lesser extent Vermont and northern New York. In fact, many places in Maine along the Canadian border have a close affinity with Canada (my gf, who is from Eastport ME, was born in New Brunswick), and you don't see much a difference crossing the border (except of course, everything in Canada is pretty clean). |

Serbia made a zillion concessions and Austria went and asked for more. Germany has a major share of the responsibility for not telling Austria to back down.And the US did turn the tide. The whole thing was a stalemate until the Germans managed to drag the US into the war through their own idiocy. |

Not to mention that the condition that Germany was left in after that war also made things ripe for the rise of the Nazis, thus leading to the Second World War. In essence, that August 1914 day many also have been a contributing factor to BOTH world wars. |

New Hampshire is more a battleground with the libertarian lean of the state, however libertarian as they are they'd be somewhat forced to go along with the five other states lest they become an enclave. Of course, if Canada can deal with Alberta...Of course, there are Canadians out there that believe that the US will still be around as-is in 1000 years, or that Canada would refuse US refugees if it was to crumble, or that Canada would reject any attempts to grant provincehood to US states that wanted to join (or would mothball it like Turks & Caicos's attempts at provincehood). All of this are disconcerting. |

Most of Europe did not recover the sense of peace and prosperity that it had in June 1914 until the late 1950s. And even then, only gradually diminishing over the next 30 years, there was the fear of a nuclear war. |

This is what Wikipedia says about the Republican Party."Founded in northern states in 1854 by anti-slavery activists, modernizers, ex-Whigs and ex-Free Soilers, the Republican Party quickly became the principal opposition to the dominant Democratic Party. It first came to power in 1860 with the election of Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency and Republicans in control of Congress and the northern states. It oversaw the saving of the union, the destruction of slavery, and the provision of equal rights to all men in the American Civil War and Reconstruction, 1861-1877." My, how things have changed. |

Why do these young black males continue to embrace the gang banging/thug stuff,Same reasons Italian kids embraced the guido/mobster stuff.

Obama becoming President has not improved anything. Some thought he would make things worse. In NYC, these hood kids aren't that poor as you think they are, most of em have Cable, Computer, cell phones, game systems, brand name clothing etc, Excellent observation. One I've made before. "Ghetto" no longer means living like those from Cabrini-Green or the tenements of Harlem in the 70's. "Ghetto" is a lifestyle and attitude. Damn.

A lot of black men have the mentality that the "white man" is holding blacks down, now really, IF that was true, do you really think Obama would be the president? No. My point is its possible for blacks to get nice jobs like lawyer, doctors, etc, but a lot of them just fall back on that Bullshit excuse.Another issue is the "crabs in a barrel mentality", but that's another post. |
