Certainly not all native Germans are crazy about Germany - I know many that live here and never want to go back. We also have many people who live in German buying land here for vacation homes - and I've been told many times how "cheap" land is here - by Germans citizens spending summers here. I'm no expert on Germany, nor do I want to be. But this much I know. Not all universties are free throughout Germany. Also, German high-school students have not been very high scorers overall in standardized testing. Finland and Japan are usually the highest. Recent PISA tests ranking 31 countries had German students 21st place in math and 20th in science - whereas the U.S. was 19th in math and 14th in science (not great, but better than the German scores). Big problem with the U.S. is the amount of money we spend per student is very high as compared to most other countries. As far as you mentioning Germany not donating money to the rest of the world - as a good thing? I've got mixed feelings on that. The U.S. has given more money away to other countries than any other - and to a degree - I'm proud of that. The problem is - many of those countries take our money and spit in our faces at the same time. I'd prefer we'd only help the ones that appreciate it and "say thanks" and the heck with the rest. I kind of wish we could get all the money back we wasted fighting and helping to stop Germany in two world wars. I also wonder how Germany would of made out if we hadn't financed its reconstruction via the Marshall Plan after WWII. You mentioned Germany's strict immigration policies. I know one was the Berlin wall that hasn't been gone all that long. Overall, I prefer the U.S. but heck - I was born here and don't know any better.

Today's Featured Article - Uncle Cecil's Super A Lives Again - by Mike Purcell. A week or so out of most of my childhood summers was often spent with my Uncle Cecil and Aunt Sissie in the small East Texas town of Maydelle on their 80 acre farm. Some of my fondest memories of these visits are those of learning to drive a tractor at the helm of Uncle Cecil�s 1948 Farmall Super A. Uncle Cecil was the second owner of this wonderful little tractor, but it was almost as though he had adopted an infant. The original owner was a man from Minnesota who bought her from a local dea
