Well the rocket that is sending the satelite into space will also carry 2 others if I am not mistaken, so in theory they are just hitching a ride with some other expensive satelites...
You are quite wrong.
I wont comment about absentee voting.
But I will talk about the Social programs you hold so highly in regard. For one, he wouldnt be giving up social services because there ARE none in the US anyway. In Europe, if you work there, you will pay taxes, if you pay taxes you get the same access to social services as any other person in Europe, without exceptions.
Moving about:
If you are able to get into Europe (the EU), then you can move about the ENTIRE union without even having to show your passport/id at borders, until you want to travel outside the EU.
Dirtier, more crowded?
I dont know where you got that idea from, but see, there are a ton of different cultures in EU. I live in sweden and its very nice and clean here, and compared to some american big cities, cities here are practically empty (except for the traffic).
Lavatories? I am sure if you go to a US college lavatory it wont always be the cleanest one. Schools arent exactly known for their hygiene in any country. (i've been to a few)
The little things bug you everywhere, but at least in europe every crazy fool doesnt have a gun and wants to go around shooting you in the head.
Two words: Gun Control.
Phew good, I thought you were really kidding me there!
My life is at peace now that I know Copenhagen is the capital of Holland...;-P *phew*
(btw: Holland=Netherlands, good if you are a lazy typer)
Oh but dont forget to mention that Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark...so theoretically Christiania is in Denmark, its just NOT denmark hehe.
I only recently learned about this place, and since I live in Sweden and its only a few hours drive from me by car... God damn I gotta go there! hehehe
My phone, a Siemens SL45 supports MIDI ringtones, although the quality of playback is somewhat worse then it used to be on good ol sound blaster 16, but still, its a step in the right direction...
Having different signals/pictures for different people is something that has been around for over a year now, if not more, at least in europe, i had that on my phone back in 1999...

Statements like that are exactly what makes me, and most other europeans loathe the THEM^H^H^H^H US....
You should probably check what exactly a minister of culture does before you make your arrogant american statements.
Way to go denmark! This should give me good reason to visit it just because I can! hehe
Denmark is South of Sweden, not West of it..heh
// Greetings from stockholm
That statement makes me sick.
Especially if you really believe that.
