Yeah,you're probably right,but I don't know how to find a vegetarian coolie prepared to walk there with the parcel on his head, & the guy certainly won't be allowed to interfere in the workings of the local economy,whether or not he has a yen to do so.
The 'shithole' remark was just me pretending to be a lowlife; I'm sure we'd agree about many things, if we could have a real life conversation.
As for the superpowers; apparently there was a joke going around Berlin in 1945 before das fuehrer shot himself & the place was up for grabs ...........the optimists were learning English, & the pessimists, Russian.
