Are we spoiled?

[ronnieM]

so why call me an eco-wacko?

 

[Bud#21]

Where would you rather live, India or Canada? She choose Canada. Now little boy, im going to leave it to you to figure out what that means.

 

[TimsonA]

Because it's much easier to insult someone than than to provide a well reasoned, referenced, sensible rebuttal of their posts when your just spouting ignorant, random statements.

Well having lived in India i can tell you that many people want to move to the west because they see it as an easier life because media in India often paints it that way and old colonial thinking is still prevalent. They think that people from abroad are rich.
Is it an better or easier life?
Thats debatable, because the West is falling from the "better" lifestyle it once had due to other countries quickly catching up.

But your friend moved from the SERVICES available in Canada not the CULTURE. When people do move from their country to another, they usually keep their own culture and neighbourhoods form e.g. Chinatowns and Little India's.

Yeah you would know. Actually its because ive had a few run ins with envirowackos and they really get on my nerves.

 

[sneakysnake]

I would actually, I've worked in environmental research for several years and have a friend whose husband works for Shell. People who know what they're talking about don't have to insult others. They merely provide them with the facts. You leapt on him with an insult whilst (as appears to be your usual MO) not bothering to provide facts for your interpretation of his post. I have dealt with 'enviro wackos' in all their guises, but Zaad posted nothing that would have had me calling him an 'enviro wacko'.

Yawn. Because of course that means that you were right all along... Western Europe is culturally superior.

When you manage to get two brain cells that get close enough to each other to actually create some friction resembling a coherent thought... post up. Until then you have relegated yourself with your absurd arguments to internet wasteland.

If you're interested in the issues then check out the links i gave you. That will get you started. If i misinterpeted the post i apologise.

Perhaps you have a reading comprehension issue?! I'm very interested in the issues, however I have access to academic level peer reviewed information as well as industry facts and figures. I have plenty of experience of making an informed interpretation of both sides of the argument. I don't need lay person level websites to point out to me facts that I already know.

Some of the channel islands that are part of the UK still had a feudal system until very recently. I think maybe one or two still do. Nazi opinions on other races had nothing to do with the structure of their society. The Nazis viewed Arian Europeans as being superior to everybody else. The master race as they put it. Everybody else was sub-human in their opinion.

Eastern Europeans are Slavic peoples. They often have distinctive features that set them apart from north-western Europeans like the Germans, French or British. The Nazis wanted scapegoats. People who are different are easy targets.

Perhaps you have a hypocrisy issue? You are the one making insults now not me.

 

[icewitch54]

^ i really dont see the insult.

my cookie face is more insulting

 

[poserebabe]

If I was making insults you'd know about it. I merely questioned your ability to comprehend a post that was made due to the misinterpretation present in your answer. You have a history of making threads using no facts, sweeping statements and insulting people who disagree with you. You obviously didn't read my post properly, just jumped in with another post that didn't address the issues raised.

 

[balt]

Sooo... "lay person" is an insult now?

 

[JeffO1]

Yeah sure whatever you say If you think you know more about the energy field than i do we can discuss the facts later. I have something to do now.

 

[7WoRdS]

I had an Indian rooofftopicte from Kenya - never stopped bitching about the lack of servants.

 

[jrdnlb]

its funny cos its true

 

[Snowhiteyes]

India is one of the worlds most populist countries. I'll bet there are more cars in India than there are people in Canada. Please stop posting and do some research.

 

[SonnyC]

The Indian motorcycle market is absolutely massive and in a couple of decades or so, their economy could well be the biggest in the world.

 

[sugarjunk]

Yep. And India's cities are also massively congested with road traffic. There might be a reason why bikes are so popular.
