The US was late for that war which was won largely because of the Soviet Union. But Americans having been late for WWI as well as WWII decided to start all subsequent wars it was involved in and that required excesses of arms. Because the US decide where wars will be and essentially they restrict them to the Middle East where oil is plentiful or parts of Latin America and Asia. None of these countries are equipped to wage war on Norway, unlike the Nazis in 1939. And you do know that in 1940 there was a substantial majority of Americans who favoured the Nazis, not the allies, don't you?nondisclosed_email@example.com (Yobbo)Tue, 23 Jan 2018 02:17:14 +0000 Re: Your president doesn't want immigrants from shitholes.https://bthepoliticalgrilltwo.runboard.com/p34602,from=rss#post34602https://bthepoliticalgrilltwo.runboard.com/p34602,from=rss#post34602They were also occupied in WWII Yobbo.nondisclosed_email@example.com (cooter50)Mon, 22 Jan 2018 23:33:27 +0000 Re: Your president doesn't want immigrants from shitholes.https://bthepoliticalgrilltwo.runboard.com/p34601,from=rss#post34601https://bthepoliticalgrilltwo.runboard.com/p34601,from=rss#post34601quote:GoHawk wrote: Shifty, i am committed ti more rather less government services.

Last year ICE detained over 400,000 undocumented workers and deported about the same number, at a cost of over $20,000 per deportee. The entire detention system eats over $2 billion a year. It’s the largest immigrant detention system in the world. In addition to the fifteen ICE facilities, the Feds contract with hundreds of county jails, juvenile detention centers, and state prisons to house their detainees, at a cost of about 150 bucks a day per person, 350 for a family. Two-thirds of all facilities are run by private companies. The more bodies they have, the more money they make. Homeland Security, which ICE answers to, has a quota, one mandated by Congress.

The average home in the late 1800's NOT in a city was two rooms, possibly three, kitchen, parlor, sleeping room, that for as many as a dozen children in the same house. My Great Grandparents lived in such a 'Home' crossing 1900 outside of Arcadia MO. Shithouse/outhouse out back, two holes due to the number of kids. Barn/barn lot edged up as a close second when the outhouse was full. Raised thirteen in that home. Many do not understand the Privy was not so distant in OUR past, many upper crust homes had one in the cellar, they are now doing Privy Archaeology around St. Louis and St. Charles MO. Bathing was WEEKLY or biweekly not daily where the water came from a rain water cistern aside the home heated on the stove. Most people had two MAYBE three changes of clothing, one work wear, one daily wear and one dress up or funerary/wedding attendance. My own Great Uncle, a single man til he died had four pair trousers(one pair to work in), two pair boots, five pair socks and under drawers, four shirts five undershirts. Two cardigan sweaters one heavy coat one light jacket, two Fedoras and one pair gloves. All would fit neatly in a chest of drawers with his other belongings.

Trump’s Dept. of Homeland Security just took shameful action against Haitian immigrants On the heels of his disgusting comments in which he called Haiti, among other nations, a “shithole country,” Trump has taken his disdain for the island in the Caribbean to a new low tonight. Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially removed Haiti from its list of countries whose citizens can apply for low-skilled work visas. Their justification for the rescission is “high levels of fraud and abuse,” claiming that Haitians engaged in a “high rate of overstaying the terms” of their visas. The move, of course, is largely symbolic – albeit hateful – given that only several dozen Haitians have entered the United States on H-2A and H-2B visas. In other words, rather than amend relations with the nation after his denigrating comment, he instead opted to take action that served as an international slap in the face, even though the move has barely any significant tangible “benefit” for the administration. Haitians were added to the list of countries eligible to benefit from the visa program after a devastating earthquake struck the island in 2010. It was a major lifeline for Haiti after the natural disaster killed more than 200,000 people. Per Reuters: “They’re just cutting off the most economically beneficial visa for the Haitian people,” said Sarah Williamson, founder of PTP Consulting, a Virginia-based consultancy that ran a pilot program to bring Haitians to the United States on the visas. “Even though not many people have been able to avail themselves of it, it’s been hugely transformational for those who have participated.” Trump may have promised that he never insulted Haiti during his closed-door meeting, but his actions tonight speak louder than his words ever will. http://washingtonpress.com/2018/01/18/trumps-dept-homeland-security-just-took-shameful-action-haitian-immigrants/nondisclosed_email@example.com (shiftless2)Thu, 18 Jan 2018 14:22:15 +0000 Re: Your president doesn't want immigrants from shitholes.https://bthepoliticalgrilltwo.runboard.com/p34331,from=rss#post34331https://bthepoliticalgrilltwo.runboard.com/p34331,from=rss#post34331Did you look at the link, Cooter?
