It has been planned that after Health Care becoming a Constitutional Right, so too has been private jet ownership.
College educations, health care and private jet ownership are all things you can expect when you enter the USA illegally.
Come one, come all and get up to speed quickly.....
We need someone to pay the bill

Why Don't We Name Our Heroes?
Starting with Washington,Patrick Henry,Nathan Hale and too many more to name to make my point,into Grant, Lee, Sgt York and Audie Murphy.
Do you know who those people are? Correct,they are American heroes. This was back when we took pride in and heroes and gave people both a name and a face to the cause.
Now through that last years, we name the collective of heroes: NYPD NYFD after 9/11 and of "The Troops".
But what happen to putting a name and face to the cause?
A Nation without Heroes is a nation destined to fail.
Let's start naming our heroes and remembering them as the individuals they are,not the nameless faceless collective and the vapor and illusions of hero, but the true meaning of being a hero.
Do we what to go down in history as the generation with no heroes?
Starting adding to the list: Jefferson, Lincoln, and who?

Ugly American
After a wonderful trip to Italy one of the things that made me originally not want to go what the story that "other countries" don't like us. Bush this, imperialism that and all the other lines that go with it.
After spending time observing people from the world in Italy, I came to the realization that the reason other coutries made not like the USA or the UK for that matter isn't because of politics or status. The reason other countries don't like America is because of Americans.
I watched people complaining that "no one speaks English" or asking "do you have American coffee?"
I know it's easy to blame politics past and present on the world's opinion of us, but if you want other countries to have a good opinion of America, act respectful when you're abroad
That simple
