Infuriated, huh?
Come sit down beside me I said to myself
And although it doesn't make sense
I held my own hand as a small sign of trust
And together I sat on the fence
Anon. Very anon.
Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

No need to thanks us. Be excited is all we ask.Taking aspirin is a cheap and safe way to prevent deadly blood clots, according to an international study.The research, which included trials in Auckland, found by taking the low-dose painkiller patients with blood clots were less likely to suffer a heart attack, stroke or reoccurring blood clots.
Auckland Hospital's Dr Paul Ockelford, who led the New Zealand trials, said the results would change the way patients with blood clots are treated.
"It's an exciting development," he said.

Another American tragedy unfolds.
We seem to be governed by 100% Wingnuts.Tourism NZ sought approval from Warner Bros for every aspect of its $10 million "Middle-earth" marketing campaign - even checking with the film studio over issues that did not directly concern it, official papers show.
The documents, released under the Official Information Act, reveal the extent of the company's sway over the government agency's "100% Pure Middle-earth" marketing strategy, as well as the influence of Peter Jackson's Wingnut Films.
But we knew that.

- Outstrips the US on most international social indicators
- Led the first US space flight (Explorer 1, guy called (Sir) William Pickering)
