  • Yes. We can travel over 3000 miles and still be in the same country with about every climate. Meanwhile for a family of 4 it would cost almost $700 to get passports and involve waiting weeks. Then flying say Seattle to Paris for instance would cost about $3000 before actually doing anything there. This is in addition to the $300-$400 spent every 5-7 years on normal identity documents that you need for other purposes. This cost varies substantially state to state.

    Meanwhile families here are facing drastically escalating costs especially housing and medical.

    Compare that to a European who could travel 100 km on the train and be in another country.

    Americans have both increased dis-incentives and less incentives to travel internationally compared to Europeans.









  • When someone says I’m a blank they can mean I have an interest in blank so I cosplay as a blank, they can mean I have a degree in blank but have worked zero days in the profession or it could mean I’m in the bottom 2% of blank regarded by literally everyone who knows anything about blank as a blithering idiot but a certified blithering idiot.

    As a rule although smart people do post on youtube most youtube links actually used as sources on social media are by and for idiots. I rarely bother to even click.
