36. Exactly.. as long as corporatists feel free to move all over the globe,
why should citizens not be allowed to do the same. If the dollar is at the end of a stick we all chase, we must be prepared to follow that dollar wherever it leads us..

The world has gotten considerably smaller in the last few decades too.. What used to mean a long trip, often by boat, and being totally out of contact with the folks "back home", is no longer that way. With VOIP and internet, families can "stay connected" with the click of a mouse..no matter where they are.. Even remote areas are less so these days.. When we were in Panama, the only way we could get in touch with grandparents was to have a ham operater on base, contact a ham operator in Kansas, and we would chat that way.. (long distance was waaaaay out of reach, and my grandparents had a party line, so we would have wasted a lot of money had we tried that route if someone on the line, other than they, picked it up..

People have to do what people have to do, and unless others are supporting thwem financially, they have NO say in it:)
