Not a gay hater...never said anything of the sort but hey nice diversion....everything you said, beautiful city...high paying jobs....WAS..Place smells like sewage based on the shit people take in the sidewalk and street. Hard to walk down the sidewalk step over/around the bums/shit/needles/tents and RV's everywhere. You haven't been there in a while to miss your mess. Oh, here's a good idea, you can shoplift all you want no prosecution....now most retailers are or have left downtown....there like no people downtown only homeless....so yea, no thanks...so again, why don't you go back to your Utopia that you Progressives created ??

I've been to SF. It's a beautiful city. And jobs there are high paying. Maybe you'd prefer the states that always rate near the bottom in education, health care, GDP. Mostly Republican states. 70% of US GDP is in Democratic counties. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/10/election-2020-democrats-republicans-economy.html Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone On Tuesday, August 8, 2023, 10:45 PM, Savor, Thomas <00000330b7631be3-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> wrote: Why don't you go move to the Utopia that you and your ilk created in San Francisco ??

Sucking down 18% of GDP. https://wisevoter.com/country-rankings/best-healthcare-in-the-world/ No doubt you'll bash the World Health Organization because their rankings don't fit you "Opinion".

For Germany, I will give you Infrastructure but everything beyond that is questionable. German health care: I showed up at the hospital in agony. Sorry we can't help you. Where can I get help? What are your symptoms. This happened on 3 different occasions. If you have something cool to be cured, they are happy to help you. German quality of life: There's a reason you get 6 weeks of vacation. Life is extremely stressful. Germans will tell you how loved they are in other countries but I can tell you from driving a car licensed in Germany, I got a lot of abuse until they realized I was American. When driving thru borders checking passports, always hold it upside down. The color makes them think you are from the UK otherwise you spend an hour for them to practice their english. If you drive to the UK and you have a carload of Brits, insert your passport upside down in the middle because they usually wave you through. Care for you over profits: In Germany, every employee signs a long contract. Mine required 9 months notice but I know Germans with 2 years notice. At the end of 1 year in Germany, the company notified me that I must return the car because my drivers license was no longer valid for Germany. I told them sorry but I'm in the Netherlands and can't drive in Germany. My drivers license showed up the next day. Many companies have open floorplans without any walls except around the window offices. There are some nice perks but this is not about the care for you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.
