you should start every conversation with, "Thank you for the billions of dollars and seventy years of uninterrupted peace you have contributed to our country."
There is only one effective tool in world politics and that is power or more correctly the threat of power.

The same as many other countries, that are as diverse as us. I really liked being in other countries where everyone is so much the same, and on the same team. We're too busy arguing with ourselfs on our path to self destruction. (the end of all success?)
Some people are just pissed that we spend billions helping other nations when we're allready $16trillion in debt.
So he kinda has a point, in a not so nice manner. We spend a ton more effort helping this world than any other nation. And many of us feel that it's time for other nations to step it up.
A disturbing too many want to isolate ourselfs again like we were in the 1920's. Sure world trade and all that would continue, but no more overseas wars and monetary aide. We all know that won't work out well for the world as a whole.
Still, I'm not sure why the Losi 8 is still so popular. The Xray, Serpent, and sometimes the Techno, are superior cars IMO.

Why get political? The Serpent? really? They just keep coming out with upgrades that are a hit or miss, it's hard to keep up with this car.

So I just bought a Losi 3.0 here in Italy for 415 euros before sales tax. At the current rate of exchange that equals out to 554 dollars. They are being sold in the states for 699 dollars. Someone is screwing over American drivers. Either Losi, Horizon, or Amain is making a ton of money on these kits. Even when you add in the 20% sales tax that Europeans pay, the price comes out to 646 dollars. Who is making the big money on this thing? I am positive that the hobbyshops over here are still making a profit.

Their sales tax is called vat and its differnt from our tax system. They dont pay alot of other taxes we pay. There is a lot of people in politics that want to do a vat (value added tax) here in the US. The problem is that they will not do away with all the other taxes we have to pay and this vat will just be more wealth redistribution. Welcome to socialist America, brought to you by Barack Hussein Obama and his rank and file dummycrats.
