I consider dialup to be very inefficient, but a post stated N. Koreans have no Internet access.

At the same time both of those countries constantly wants to teach others about individual freedoms, human rights etc.
What about Anglo - brotherhood ultimate hypocrisy? Do they want to teach us about that as well?

That's a new one on me! I am betting that only loyal party hacks get cellphones, and there's two IT spies monitoring each cellphone.

But everybody has a job, so there is no unemployment

I've been to the former STASI headquarters in Berlin, it's a huge buildning. I wonder what they all do today?

I went to the cafeteria there to have a beer, it looked like a lounge, real comfy, and looked at the waitress to come and get my order. She was about five meters away, but stood her ground. "You'll have to come over to me if you want to order", she mastered me. That was priceless ostalgia!

Actually I have heard about North Koreans having cellphones, sometimes the South Koreans throw them over the DMZ fence. They are not authorized by the North Korean government, and they use signal monitoring equipment to track down and arrest anyone using a cellphone.

Lets ask Laca about that "other country" that offers up personal freedoms greater than those we enjoy here in the USA.

Why hasn't Laca come back with this important info?

I have to know what visa to apply for so I can check it out...........

There's a lot more people in the US smoking grass compared to people shooting people. I guess you could say that if you had that freedom, to smoke, more people would enjoy it than they enjoy the right to have a gun or five at home. It would be a more used freedom.

But you can own guns in Holland as well, so yes, you would be able to shoot someone if you wanted to, praise the lord.

To simply make a "hypocricy" summary is an empty statement. Those who are incarcerate are there for good reasons, none of which are because we gave them too much or too little freedom.

Are you kidding? People should be deprived of their freedom for years because they decided to privately get high on a drug not approved by some asshole in government and the soccer mom with dried vagina who voted for him and his "Do it for the Children!" campaign?

I have the freedom to read what man who may have a flacid penis has to write, and I like having that freedom.
